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.

Same. I only ordered one though despite the $30 extra discount, dont want to end up with 4 phones in case they all ship





I agree with this 100% . It is very scummy for them not to ship orders that there website allowed for a measly $10 plan difference especially when you could get the deal at Wally world for that price. And there recalling UPS packages is crazy - must be douchebags running the company. I hope the carriers dont refund the shipping fees and then they end up losing money anyway
Yeah, no well-run company would pull these hijinks, especially to those of us who only ordered 1 phone (not 5, 10, etc).

Ordered two directly on the Straight Talk website, both on the silver plan (as required) but the second line was discounted to $30. Total with taxes was under $190 ($49 + 49 + 45 +30 + taxes). The taxes were less than expected and I don't really understand why, but I'm not complaining LOL.

This is almost as hot as the "free" (with 1 month service and waived activation fee in some cases) iPhone 11 deal from Metro earlier this year, back when the corporate stores still existed.

Anyways, my wife and I will use these as backup phones for travelling (as they take SIM cards). One of our current travel phones has a cracked screen and the other one needs a new battery, and it would cost more to get those repaired.

Does anyone know if this phone can be used on TMobile or Verizon after the 60 day unlock period?

Forgot to ask, how long can we wait before activating these phones and porting in our numbers? We are currently with Verizon and still have remaining credits that will pay for our service until end of December, so if we could wait until then to port over to Straight Talk that would be ideal.

Yes, these phones work pretty universally on the major carriers these days once unlocked.

There's no reason they wouldn't work if they are unlocked as long as they are have not been reported as stolen.

Don't think there's an activation deadline if purchased from ST directly. You should be OK, but if something is wrong (like plan won't activate) you might have an issue. Something to think about.

Are we certain these will unlock after 60 days? Are you able to choose a Verizon network monthly card in checkout?

From their website:
1. For all cellphones activated with TracFone on the T-Mobile or AT&T networks on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked upon customer request after twelve (12) months of active TracFone service.

2. For all cellphones activated with new TracFone service on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked automatically, sixty (60) days after activation.

My order from ST without plan shipped by UPS is Out for Delivery but also "received a request from the sender to return the package". Let's see if I can got this one in hand.

Update, my order is returned to sender. Dang!

Again - All phones are activated on Verizon since they bought company 2 years ago. It's not an issue.

There was a promo in Februrary with waived activation fee. Some folks were lucky enough to get 2 iPhone 11's for only $90 ($60 + $30) + taxes (if applicable depending on the state).

Thanks, this is probably covered on their website somewhere. I'll have to take a closer look. I didn't have time to do much research once I saw that the phones were back in stock.
