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.

The rep said it takes 12 months active service to unlock. Assuming its not true. Can anyone confirm please?
rep is clueless once Activate if Text UNLOCK to 611611 it replies with the unlock date.

Walmart refused to sell me at the $35 plan and would only do the $49 plan. Anyway to downgrade? Or just use the same procedure as above and cancel after a month and it ends up costing me $15 more in the end for each phone?

In somewhat a similar situation.
Received the phone yesterday. Set it up and tried to activate it, with no luck. Spend 3 hours on the phone with cs, with 3 times call dropped in the middle of the conversation.
Tried this morning and was told that a 'superior' will call me in the next 45 mins. Its been more than 3 hours since then with no call.
Phone or service is not activated , with no clue what to do now.
Really frustrated.
I was in the same situation. The phone was sent to me without the plan being linked. Someone at Straight Talk didn't do their job. I was able to get it resolved by messaging them on twitter. You just need to wait a few minutes and be ready to answer because once they respond you only have two minutes to indicate you are there or they move onto the next customer.

So I bought 2 at Walmart today. Came home and one of them is showing SOS only. Called straight talk and they said go to Walmart for support.. went to Walmart and the guy told me it shows process was completed successfully at his end. Don't know what to do at this point
Go back to Walmart and ask them to give you the 15 digit service pin printout for that order.

Went to my local Walmart today. The rep said they do not know how to activate in store. Also he mentioned that they will get separate units for iPhone SE for this deal with boxes marked as Black Friday deal on them(which sounded BS). Tried to sell me on AT&T and Verizion with $50 plans instead.

He mentioned the Straight Talk will be locked for 1 year. Can anyone verify this?
I spent 4+ hours trying to deal in store with rep and they said they couldn't get the Straight Talk deal to activate. Wondering if they are trying to keep phones for themselves.

Even though I had no luck I did get through that part with the rep and it showed what plans could be used and he said $35 plan was showing in the system. So I think your Walmart guy lied to you.

This phone is blazing fast. Very impressed with the performance so far.

After so many years of using the large phones, you almost forget how comfortable the iphone SE 2022 feels. I will see how I can adjust to go back to using a 4.7" screen size and see how the battery life does. I do have an ipad so that helps at home. The iphone se 2022 ips screen looks nice to me so I don't care much about amoled vs ips.

they talk straight to you about nothing
Once the phone is unlocked, do you have to call Straight Talk to cancel the account/number?

Do we need to activate right away after receiving the device? Is it fine if I plan to activate it and use the monthly plan in May 2024?
Bumping this to know if there is time limit we need to activate the SIM? If I just keep devices and activate after 6 months, will I be able to use $45 plan?

I went to the Super WM near Trenton, NJ and they had phones in stock. However, they don't sell plans at the store so it was $149 Mad
