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.

I was able to get 1 with $84 + tax at Walmart today around noon. Although most Walmart locations say "out of stock" online, you can just go there around noon to check it out or call them. I guess they only start phone activation at noon each day for some stores.
1st, you have to find if the WM has WARP system running. If not, getting phone at $49 price is very YMMV.
2nd the person working in Mobile is available.
3rd phone is available.

and that's lot of run around. I would pay extra $10 and get it from ST.

Back in stock online, but they require you to purchase the Silver Unlimited plan which is $45 for the first line and $30 for the second. Averages out to $37.5 each so not bad. After tax $93.67 per phone. Just gotta remember to make a few texts, calls, and use data every now and then during the 1 month plan period to get the 60 day unlock process going. Did this once before, had no issues unlocking. I was even overseas when it unlocked (though the first few calls were US).
Most people here are just buying it to trade in to apple for a gift card, they won't even turn the phone on.

Looks like Team Red lucked out. The red iPhones must have been in stock and ready to ship, because I had a UPS tracking number for both phones less than 6 hours after my order was placed.

I am thinking about getting two phone with 2 lines to take advantage of this deal. Do I just cancel the lines after 30 days and the phones will be unlocked automatically after 60 days? Or in the worst situation I just call after 60 days to have the phones unlocked? Please help. TIA

Don't cancel. Just don't pay second month. Wait it out 60 days.

All the ones I bought yesterday from Walmart are on 15.4 and 15.5

When Walmart activates the phone in store does the employee open the box or just scan it?

Happens all the time, both need to be scanned into the system (phones & cards) before they will be usable - you're right, the employees at your store are poorly trained.
Thanks to Straight Talk, I got the problem with the PINs corrected. Walmart folks were still clueless.

Is there a way to see and verify on Straight Talk's website, or on the phone itself, that the account is NOT set to auto-renew?

I called and they told me that it was not, but I'd feel better seeing it myself. I suppose if I never used a credit card (just the $35/mo code I got when I bought it at Walmart) then it can't auto-renew anyway...

How you get it corrected? I'm stuck as Walmart person didn't provide me PIN to activate service. And the Walmart isn't close by for me just to go back. And Electronic department isn't picking up the phone when I call.

I went today to get one and the store guy told me that he can not activate it , only the ST rep can do it and guess what the rep wasn't there .
