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.

I am actually a straight talk home phone plan user for years. I have been using them for years. I have used TracFone for many years as well. TracFone customer service have been very good for me. This phone deal is the first time I ever used a straight talk phone.
Only wish I could have gotten a red.

ST service is expensive & more than I need, use Google Voice & I'm on WiFi most of the time.
Also, how long after purchase do you need to have service for it to unlock? Can I put just 1 month of service on it (the initial month) and then not pay the subsequent months?

Tommorrow when I go to buy 2 more phones, not sure if I can use the same emails or I have to provide different one for each account which I only move the dot around on gmail.
Right now I am typing on my iPhone SE 2022. It seems to have only the mobile view option with chrome on slickdeal site. Even when I choose desktop view, it remains to be mobile view. I usually use the desktop view so I can see more deals, give thumbs down/up and receive reply notifications. It seems to be a nerfed experience with mobile view. I am actually typing much better than I expected though on a 4.7" screen. I use chrome. I will download the slickdeal app and see if it is better user experience than chrome mobile view.
* I see more deals with the Slickdeal app. It looks to be more polished user experience right now. Not sure if it will use less data and less battery than chrome. I know chrome with slickdeal site does use quite a bit of data. The app may save data. With a small battery, every save battery tip helps. If I am using the iPhone SE 2022, I am definitely using the app over chrome.
* I got a Samsung Galaxy A54 with the chrome slickdeal site (desktop view) and apple iPhone SE (mobile view and slickdeal app) side by side. It is what it is. Trying to make the best with a small screen. I guess it is "impossible" to comfortably use desktop view on a 4.7" screen.

In store you can get it for 49 with a minimum 35 unlimited plan. Yes, you need to activate and use it a bit in the first month, keep SIM card in, and not even renew the second month to have it be unlocked after 60 days. Just don't take the SIM card out before 61-62 days, and turn off auto renewal when buying if they make you sign up so you don't pay for the extra month by accident.
