Did anyone who give Visible Mint account number and pin to transfer number over receive any email stating the number is ready to be transfered? Last time I transfered a number from Google Fi to Visible they sent an email 24 hours later saying "your old carrier approved the transfer request and your number is ready to be transfered". This time I got nothing.

I got one for a number I ported in last week. Don't remember the exact timing, but it was the same day when I placed my order.

just curious why people care if it is locked or not. Don't you need three months of paid service either way to receive the 200 gc? And doesnt the phone automatically unlock after 3 months

I got an email stating my a/c info was wrong -- it wasn't. I called the carrier I'm moving from and their porting dept told me the a/c Visible sent over was incomplete. So then I had to go back to Visible chat and explain the issue. I sent them a screenshot of my a/c which they forwarded to their porting dept. Suppose to hear back w/I 48 hours.

So I'd say if you having record anything from Visible you might want to check with Mint to make sure they even got the port request and if they did that the info they got was correct.

Same thing has happened to me. Was porting from tracfone to visible and kept getting the account number wrong error. Tracfone said that visible kept sending the wrong number over and over. and that it was the exact same number over and over.. I just gave up and got a new number. Visibles chat dept and facebook messaging help are just waste of time. They can't do anything more than you can on the website. God help you if you ever really need help. Its just not there.
Besides, the past 3 weeks have been really bad for visible. They have had spotty service and outages all over the country. Some places still don't have service after three days. Its some kind of a software glitch in their system from what I have been reading.

I thought Mint was not an eligible carrier to port from for promo

iPhone 13 from today SIM LOCKED
iPhone 12 from 2 weeks ago => bought it as a gift and never opened but checked today => SIm Free
This is expected. When new 12s are manufactured they will be locked too, old stock will be unlocked. I know many people here do not like this but I think it is smart on Visible's part. Too many people were taking advantage of their very good deals which were meant to be incentives to try Visible and just taking the phones to other carriers or selling them. At least this way it requires a little more work,cost and/or patience to do that.

No 15% CB from websites is killing the deal for me. End of the day you get $200 GC and an homepod mini. So, $200 GC + $50 homepod sold on Craigslist. $250 value.

Now you gotta spend $100+ for 3 months of service and you can't use the phone for anything except Visible during that time. Maybe $150 saved for a lot of hassle.

Good for the right person but this is a terrible deal compared to last year where the phone was unlocked from the beginning. And there was cash back. Last year I got $300+ in CB. The 12 Pro Max 256GB I bought was only like $700 when I was done or something and there was very little inconvenience.
i mean dont u need three months of service either to receive the gc?

Fedex tracking say signature required. I thought Fedex waived signature requirement so drivers could social distance. So is signature actually required for delivery?
it is a joke, they sign it for you

Well that's disappointing to hear. My issue is with TracFone too. Seems like identical problems. I'll give Visible their 48hr to get me activated otherwise I'll just send the phone back. Not worth my time to keep bothering with for net $150 or so savings.

The annoying thing is that when I try to call or chat with TracFone I get a human quickly. Chat on Visible so far has been a 20-30min wait. TracFone even gave me the direct # for the porting dept. No need to go through a CSR intermediary.

Gifting, reselling, or using your preferred cell service are the phone most likely. You can activate service on any phone and still get the virtual card. I have done it about 6 times. I think 4 of the 6 I have activated the service on a different phone.

I also have the same porting issues albeit with Total Wireless (owned by Tracfone). I clicked activate in the app yesterday and nothing happened. I noticed in my Total Wireless account that my number was inactivated, but I still ended up getting service on Total Wireless. Today, I called Total Wireless and for whatever reason the port failed, and Total Wireless had to reactivate my number and reattach it to my account. They told me to tell Visible to resubmit the port request, so I tried to but Visible seems to have a standard response you need to wait 24-48 hours.

I was excited to try Visible but this is really ridiculous.

I had zero plan to use Visible wireless.

$200+ $50 homepod mini even if i do have to pay $55 for 3 months of service is still $200 less than paying for a full price unlocked phone from Apple.

I have AT&T but want the flexibility to use the phone for whatever carrier I want right out the box. But now they locked it it's gonna sit there for 60 days before it can be used.

oh well. there's always gotta be something in it for them, this eliminates the percentage of users who just use visible temporarily.
