Got my order for 2 phones delivered today, and got them both activated to start the countdown clock on the unlock. For anyone who bought one just to activate for the one-month plan you purchased and unlock, the easiest way is the automated phone service (the online process wasn't working for me):

1) 1-877-430-2355
2) Press 2 to Activate Device
3) Press 2 for a New Number
4) Follow voice prompt to enter IMEI, ZIP code, create PIN, etc. When asked by the prompt if you want to "add to an existing account", say "No". If you purchased a plan with the phone, it will recognize this and automatically activate the SIM for the plan.

When the voice prompt tells you to power on the device, the instructions were incomplete and unclear. If you've never activated a phone before here are the steps:

1) Attached to the box for your phone is the associated SIM card in a pouch; remove and punch out the nano-SIM.
2) Using the SIM tool in the iPhone box (or a small paperclip), pop out your SIM card tray and insert the nano-SIM.
3) Re-insert the SIM tray into the iPhone and power on the phone.
4) Go through the setup process; I recommend connecting to WiFi when prompted to make things go faster.
5) Your phone should be activated within a few minutes of being powered on with the SIM inserted, assuming you went through all the steps in the automated phone activation.
So no luck at Tega Cay, SC Walmart. They did have at least 2 in stock. The guy was nice looking into it for 30 mins or so. He finally found out the Walmart had to have the WARP system for in-store phone activation so call up or local Walmart to ask if they have that. He mentioned the store in Rock Hill, SC on Dave Wylie had the WARP system.

I'm not going to waste my time going there, but thought I'd help others. Be sure to call the local Walmart you are going to, ask if they have the phone in stock (both stores said online they didn't have stock, but both stores did have them in stock) and ask if they have the WARP system for activation. Good luck everyone.
Yes done it three times now. Use it a few times with the straighttalk network for a few days first though. Text, call, browse then 61 days later unlocked.

Can you trade multiple phones in at the same time to purchase one phone?
No, but you can get an Apple GC and use that GC to purchase. The trade in value for SE 3 for Apple GC is $155 at this moment. Trading in for device purchase increases that value to $160.

Are you still limited to trading in two phones per 12 months?

Went to Straight-talk online. In for 2. So much better than taking a chance with Walmart. Only black in stock. Would have liked other colors but that is what a case is for. $35 card is the cheapest plan. I did not click on auto renew. In January, i will most likely transfer it over to Metro T-Mobile for ease of management and grandfathered plan.

Received confirmation of order email from ST.

If you plan on USING this phone, I'd probably pay the extra $35/line to make sure it unlocks in 60 days.

If you're JUST BUYING THIS to TRADE IN. Going with no plan is a good idea (and saves $35/device).
I'm buying this without a Straight Talk plan and then going to activate it with the $15 Smartphone TracFone plan. That was what I did with the iPhone SE 2020 deal back in September and it activated without rebranding needed and I got the confirmation text telling me it would unlock in 60 days. We'll see how this goes.

You might be right on that. If true, I guess the max value would be $160 + $155 = $315.

I just got three of them from ST.com for $49 each without the plan! Just add one to your cart with the plan, remove the plan, and then duplicate it on the cart page as many times as you need.
I just did 5 - all without a plan (as I was planning to use them as trade-ins with my regular service provider). It took a few minutes to receive the confirmation email.

Given my experience with Tracfone, I wouldn't be surprised if my order gets cancelled!

Do you think we will have an issue with trade-in if we don't activate the phone?

placed order WITH the $35 plan, used Paypal instead of direct CC payment. got order confirmation email from ST within seconds.

they did state that due to "high volume of orders, it could take 3-5 days to prepare order for ship".. I'm not expecting them to honor this sale, and am waiting for the eventual cancellation email... also, if buying without plan, you will have issues activating the phone, and the 60-day unlock window only starts after activation. Don't be penny wise, pound foolish,..... pay the $35 upfront to get a $350 phone for $85.
