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.

Want to try to use with the S23 FE for Metro deal.
Thank you for the quick informative response!
Didn't work on PC, asked for password I never set up.
Tried reset multiple times, each time failing to login.
Followed link on phone after activating, again asked for a password I have never set up.
Followed link to reset password multiple times again, and it finally worked.
Probably not even necessary, as they don't have my payment info, and not signed up for Autopay.
Shipping notification Thurs 11/9 @ 6:15pm
Received Mon 11/13 @ Noon
Activated using phone # on SIM packet, instructions here: https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
Make a call or two
Text "UNLOCK" to 611611 (had to text twice, got a response the second time)
Phone unlocks 1/13/24
Doesn't show up on online account, probably becasuse I selected "No" according to the instructions linked. Will need to verify AutoPay is off in a week or two,
Thanks!
Hopefully can get another in-store.
Speed test: 11 / 5 in SE MI on this SE 3 (2022)

I think Metro is different. It stays locked for 6 months. AFAIK no one in any of the Metro deals have reported getting it unlocked earlier
For this I meant port one of these Straight Talk numbers over to Metro to get the S23 FE. I see posts saying Metro instore is horrible, but I have not been able to catch the S23 FE in stock online.

NVM. Just called ST and a knowledgeable lady can confirm both orders have been canceled even though the site says pending remote fulfillment.
No one in this whole company appears to be knowledgeable, call again and they'll you the phone is still in process of being shipped. Also if that order was really cancelled since last week chances are you would have seen the refund on your credit card by now, at least showing pending status
How to know if one Walmart does activation or not?
So, if you have an order in limbo, save yourself the aggravation & don't bother to call them.
These orders will be cancelled, and you will need to do a chargeback if you want to see your money again any time in the next month or so.
I submitted my chargeback request and AMEX posted the credit to my account the same day.
