Buying a money order with the gift card essentially gets the cash off the gift card. Take the money order to your bank and deposit it. I had issues adding the gift card to my Paypal and Venmo which is why I went the money order route. My cash offer from GameStop was $140 less than the visa gift card. Most grocery stores and even Walmart offer money orders. Swipe the giftcard as debit and enter a pin number and you should be good to go.

I think the tax is on $500 so 100 + 7% or whatever your state tax is + 60 + 20 = 215 approx

Quote from JD420 :
They get a chargeback in commission on postpaid. Prepaid is a flat commission fee plus add on services. If you cancel insurance they lose that commission. Employees are more concerned with you cancelling insurance more than anything. There are set monthly goals.

If anyone plans to do this promo, make sure you log some calls and data the first month.
Thanks. So it's mainly the first month? My rep added $12 insurance to each of my lines. She mentioned this while going through the charges and didn't just sneakily add it in like other cellular reps have tried.


I wasn't planning on making any changes for that first month so hopefully they don't get alerted that I didn't continue to pay for the following months

Has anyone experiencing porting out the number after 1 month of service from Metro but still phone getting unlock? I did one mistake, I ported my permanent number to Metro. Its already past 1 month and account is inactive/suspend now. I want to port that number to some other carrier but wondering if it will impact my unlocking. I have iphone XR.

Same experience. I got it the swap to work by using the app on the 11, make sure both Cell & Wifi is turned on until the process is completed. I swapped from 11 to a SS A51 successfully.

Tried this yesterday at a grocery store called Harris Teeter. Glad I didn't go to Walmart lol

Yes enter any random 4 numbers, the first time you enter a pin for the gift card that pin is now set for the card. This applies to Vanilla branded gift cards cant confirm for others.
Yeah the PIN was not the issue. The POS kept identifying the card as Credit and the agent said you can't use credit card. I've made other purchases with the card and pin so I know the card and PIN works.
I guess it depends on the POS then, some systems identify it some may not.

All tracfone embrella such as NET10, Totalwireless are eligible to port. They are verizon network now
I have 2 tracfone sims and one is under the at&t sim and the other is under the t-mobile sim. I don't believe I can port the tracfone (t-mobile) sim because it is still using t-mobile service.

No, the phone only work for Metro By T-Mobile SIM card until permanent unlock or soft unlock, I have Metro 13 Pro bought October use Soft unlock with T-Mobile SIM card now, need to wait April 10 to get permanent unlock.

It doesn't matter you are currently T-Mobile customer or not, Metro is prepaid service only check ID to verify if you have use any promo in past 180 days or not.
If I go your route, did you lower your plan to the $30 one for 6 months so you can get permanent unlock

Wrong, even you only stay one day with Metro , put in drawer or use soft unlock with other carrier and port out number or do nothing, the phone still will unlock after 180 days when activate with Metro Sim Card, $30 plan * 6 months only for someone like to be Metro Customer, I don't downgrade and only use one month of $60 plan.

They said you need to activate for 95 days, otherwise your phone will blocked
Only a third party store would say that. They play with a different set of made up rules.

I used total wireless number from XR deal. Porting failed due to wrong account, most likely since I didn't pay the second month the account might have got cancelled.

They gave me the iphone but said to resolve the porting issue in 3 days.

What will happen if porting fails?
What account # did u use? TW rep asked me to use IMEI. Asked me to text NPT to 611611 for the pin.. netizens say 0000 is the pin… what did u use
