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.

Called their crack customer service team and had the charge refunded. Once it left pending status to fully charged with no shipment, I called.
Have you seen the refund on your credit card?

does walmart charge tax on the pre-discount total? Because ST online seems to only charge tax on the final cost.
For me they did, yes.

I ordered one on the 7th, was supposed to deliver today but the package has the tracking status as "returned" to the sender by UPS? I called Straight Talk and it said they still have the status as shipped. WTF am I supposed to do now? File a claim?
This thread explains what to do. Read the last 10-20 pages, same issue happened then

I guess. I buy phones that I always intend to use. I don't buy phones just to flip or just solely the purpose of tradein. I trade in old iphones when I get a good tradein value but they are definitely used. For $84-94, I still think it is a very solid to get an iphone se 2022 with a monthly plan. The phone is being sold for like a 80% off. Someone will say it isn't really a $400 phone but it is sold for $430 unlocked at best buy now. Lets throw straight talk some credit for putting out a good deal and let them make a little profit with a plan. If I am getting a great deal, I am getting a great deal. I don't want to be a big scrooge and try to squeeze them. If people want future good deals again, don't try to scam/skim/squeeze/nickel & dime from a monthly plan. I am looking at the overall deal $84-94 for a phone with a monthly plan. Great deal.
I was once like you, however, I have become accustomed to getting a "free" phone every Black Friday. My current free phone is Pixel 7 256GB.

broke down and re-ordered one with plan (still no update on the original order without plan from early day 1, obviously not coming). lets see if they ship this one while sitting on the previous order.
I only placed 1 order around 8 AM on 11/6. My order never shipped (pending remote fulfillment). I called today.
- They first told me that it was still within normal shipment time and to wait (BS)
- When I explained that people who placed orders after me already got theirs shipped, I got transferred to a new rep.
- The new rep first told me that the phone was OOS and that's why my order hadn't shipped.
- When I pointed out that people could place new orders even a few days after I placed my order on 6th, she tried to check something but came back and said "the tool we use to check information is not working." She said she couldn't do anything because of this. But, she did say that she would put in a request to check on my order.

Not sure what to make of this whole thing. This is my first time dealing with ST.

The rep can't do anything if there is no inventory. Only call if you can see inventory. While you have the rep on the phone try and order a few more phones.laugh out loud

49 pages later and this thread has turned into a whine fest about entitled folks taking advantage of a system error and then pikachu surprised face when it doesn't work out the way they wanted to. The folks who actually went to walmart to get the deal for reasons other than resale or cheap unlock are outnumbered.

lmfao at the class action lawsuit talk, you wouldn't be on slickdeals if you were about that life.

No one here knows any more than you do.
There's no way to know why some have been returned & others delivered.
It's just a YMMV deal at this point.

I believe apple only allows you to do 2 trade in's in a 12 month period.
A little off topic, but could a take a friend, each trade 2 phones. Then use the 4 gift cards to buy a new iphone? I think Apple allows up to eight gift cards. However, do they restrict transfering the gift cards.

Patience is a virtua. I bought it yesterday. Am I supposed to have the phone in my hand the next day? They are being bombarded with a billion orders and the staff isn't ready to weed through all the orders in a day. It will naturally take a longer time. A person should give them a reasonable amount of time.

If they cancel my order and refund me, who cares? I am made whole. Oh well. It is a $49+45 deal. I will survive with the dozen other phones that I have. It isn't like I spent a $1000 on a phone.

You still seem to miss the point.

They are shipping out orders made after they changed the deal. They are generally not shipping out orders made before.

I don't care if they cancel my order and refund. I just want them to actually do that.

Yup. I walked into a WM here in N Cal and they had about 10 of these phones on ST. I picked the $35. plan, total under $100 and was out the door in 15 minutes.
