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.

What's the cheapest plan that the in-store Walmart associate can add to make this work.

I think so, since it's under Verizon
Yup. I did two when it was 150. Paid 1 month of service and it unlocks automatically at 60

For you folks that purchased in-store and did NOT have a 3rd party rep activate a plan (aka had a normal WM employee override price). Can you return the $35 plan? Or, does the receipt have some wording on it like "non-returnable". I'd imagine if the card is sealed, you could take it right up to CS and get a $35 refund... or try another day. That would basically copy the ST website deal.

Obviously, if the plan was activated (using the scarce WARP system), no chance at returning after POS.
Honestly, they didn't activate it or set it up in the store - they just had me buy a $35 plan card with a scratch off thing on the back for the pin.

The card itself says "nonrefundable" on the back of it, but if the pin hasn't been unscratched/ revealed, I'm not sure if that changes anything regarding returns.

I kept the ST page up and was able to snag one just now. https://www.straighttalk.com/all-...on-prepaid

Looks like it goes in and out of stock.

I kept trying the "Place Order" button and my order just went through on 7th attempt within 15 mins or so.

Got one in nearby Walmart. Good birthday gift for my 11 year kid as the 1st phone.
Did you activate it with a Straight Talk rep? If you did, could you describe what the process was like? What personal information were you required to provide?

The plan doesn't seem to matter at WM, as I haven't seen anyone mention getting the deal to ring up automatically at the discounted price. So it seems to be a matter of finding someone who will actually do the price override. I got the $35 plan, which looked like their cheapest smartphone plan card on the shelf. Also, the WM details don't specify any particular plan required.

My mom is still using the original iPhone SE 2016. This will be an upgrade for her to a much newer phone. She uses Total by Verizon so I don't need to unlock it for her, since Total by Verizon and Straight Talk are sister companies.

according to walmart return policy prepaid phone cards are not returnable. Only the Phone itself is.

Yes, if you are needing them unlocked. If you are trading them in though, you don't need them unlocked.
