That was the best. How do you still have it? They kicked me out.
I'm still on 5, but they have made pretty much ANY change a reason to boot customers off the 5 line deal.
Once set up, a great deal for a family. Getting through the customer service to being set up can be frustrating.

I've discovered the hard way that Metro CS is even worse than cricket.

Same boat here, trying to order second but system won't let me. Cricket told me I can place that order once the 1st one is activated. I ordered Saturday, it has not shipped but about an hour ago I got a text that said $25 was added to my account, which would be the upgrade fee. Hopefully that means things are moving.
Had 25 added message Monday 8pm by sms.

thought this is a decent deal for a new iphone 11 without porting a number. but that's just my thought.
Cricket c/s is miles better than Metro. Easy to sim swap too vs Metro where one has to call c/s possibly do online but they require IMEI info and if not approved, it's no go. Quick and easy with Cricket without contacting c/s.

yes, but it is a lot of movements for 50 bucks savings. You need a number to port-in, you pay dealer addons, plus activation fee which is avoided if buying online. 10(number)+49+60+25+30=174, while this is 225.
I walked out the door last year with a SE 2020 at $49.99 for a total of $94.00 with port in. I expect the 11 to be similar. Deal with the manager if in. Most will negotiate.

I walked out from metro with 2 new 12 minis at 112 each with the se2020 trade in. Back then it was 1 mos after their announcement. That is the type of deal i am looking forward to hit the physical office.

Mine shipped an hour ago and I was able to order a second one. This is a very underrated deal.

Mine says too. Though UPS says track is invalid for now. I guess until it updates?

If I'm already a cricket customer can I just put the SIM card from the old phone in this new one? Or do I have to go through the whole activation process with the new SIM card?

It is actually vice-versa. New sim that they shipped never worked for me and I put my old one from old phone - worked like a charm with no manipulations.
New sim was giving me an error while activating process on the website - but order said it is already activated, but still it didn't make calls after sitting for a while.

Long time cricket customer. This is actually a fair deal for existing customers which is rare. No hoops to jump through. I'm in. Thanks.

I'd go beyond and say this is an excellent deal for existing users just because there are hardly any phone deals for us.

I just got mine today is 2-day shipping. Brand new. AppleCare is $149 which is almost as expensive as this phone. Considering getting it.

Did you activate it and did you use the new SIM card or your old one?
