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.
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.

Received the phone today (Friday), called the number to activate and activation was done in 2 mins.
Popped in the SIM, placed couple of calls and checked unlock date which shows 1/10/2024.
Easy deal with some luck as the phone was instock when I was checking on Tuesday night.
Thanks.

On Monday I ordered one in black from ST site with $35 plan and that's still showing pending remote fulfillment. On Tuesday I used a different email & checked out as guest with $45 plan buying a black one. That shipped the night before last and arrived earlier today. I called the automated line to activate, made some test calls & texts afterwards, and later texted 611611 which replied with unlock date in 60 days.
I'm curious to see if the first order ever ships. If it does I have a friend who can use it. If it doesn't, oh well. I hope I don't end up needing to file chargeback (I paid with CC since PayPal wasn't an option at the time).
