Deal Details
https://www.straighttalk.com/all-...onditioned

As mentioned below, if you are trading in for pixel 7 at Bestbuy for $490 current deal with $100 gift card, there is always a risk if you ordered online and put it as Verizon phone because some bb associate is very inflexible and state that your trade in iPhone is Straight Talk and not Verizon. Ymmv.

You can activate the phone to get your number for port in to metro for another iPhone or any of the android phones deals at metro corporate store. Remember when you activated the iPhone through Straight Talk, after creating account, you need to generate a transfer pin in the website (need verification with the iphone through text) and it is valid for seven days to port out your number.

This deal had been posted but got lots of thumb down but I still feel it is an ok deal especially when you need an iPhone to trade in for the newer phones.

60 days after activating. Many people had luck having only 1 month of service and it Auto Unlocks after that.

It's about $205 with tax. Not such a hot deal unless trading for an Android and your device is in great shape.

If you want to unlock it, you need to activate the plan for one month, no renewal and it will unlock after 60 days since it is now under Verizon. Best to trade in for something else.

Maybe not hot, but still pretty good if you need an iOS device. It unlocks after 2 months and comes in good condition.

Worth $490 if trading in for pixel 7 at Bestbuy with $100 bb giftcard currently. $220 giftcard at Apple Store.

So you can get $220 towards the purchase of another iPhone, or not? Is that after discounting what you spent on the 11? I come from the world of Androids so I have no idea how it works.

You can trade in at Apple store if the device has not been modified (unauthorized parts). Apple store will run diagnostic before accepting trade in.

Not worth it to trade in to Apple Store for $220 since after tax it cost $205, $15 is too little. $220 gift card for anything in Apple Store. Was lucky in the past during Black Friday with multiple iPhone 6s with additional value but don't think they will have that anymore.

I understand your love for your post and reps but why promote this deal so aggressively for all trade-ins? these tracfone company iphone deals have been posted for so long at this same price and they go in.out of stock. the deal itself is not new.


More importantly, the iPhone models for these are not in the trade-in list at bestbuy. I am sure many will go thru but I got rejected straight out at a store just a week ago saying this is not a verizon model as I claimed. Why put so many buyers at risk promoting the trade-in. It would be a painful process if you buy it for a trade-in and then it's not accepted. two phones to return, restocking etc. Point is, you should let the folks in need do the due diligence for their needs. my $.02
Thanks for the reminder.
