this is clearly incorrect.
as evidence by the countless of popular metro threads.
sure there will be minor inconveniences.
but thats not unheard of to get a "SD"
i see ~10 years.
~ 180 post.
~70 rep points
sounds like u do not pay much attention to SD?
Has anybody been able to activate with the $40 plan at an authorized dealer store?

6 months back and Tried drawer trick.
I checked it as its 182nd day today and the phone did not unlock.
Has the unlock policy changed.
But android phones unlocked before 180 days, around 175th day.
I paid for a month and ported out number to t-mobile and used t-mobile sim in android phone for last 5months
Still unlocked

I just bought it for trade-in deals so I don't really care if it doesn't unlock. Maybe Metro has changed the unlock policy or maybe it needs a few more days.

consider a factory reset, with original M sim?

Putting a non-carrier sim will force it to activate with the apple servers and check it's unlock status. Metro most likely have fixed the auto unlock after 180 days. Just a heads up for those that jumping in on the deal for an unlocked iPhone.

my understanding is that a factory reset will force the phone to , as u say , talk to apple servers.
while it is possible M has fixed the auto unlock, i is highly unlikely.
since it has been this way for many many many years.
in past there have been reports of some phones not unlocking.
But the majority, by far have unlocked.
u may have got one of the few exceptions.
and while i do not pretend to know how this works
(not sure if anyone does for 100% certainty).
its a option to try.
best of luck.
if u checkout online with a new number
(i know may not be the same thing).
u can select the $40 plan.

also note...many times M reps will make up rules...
