Now they've done it...
New wording for Metro unlock policy:

https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/t...ock-policy

"Unlock eligibility requirements
We unlock mobile devices that meet the following eligibility criteria free of charge:

The device must be purchased from Metro by T-Mobile.
The device must not be reported as lost, stolen or blocked.
Three hundred sixty-five (365) days must have passed since the device's activation date."

Should obviously only apply to purchases made after they changed the rules.
But might have to fight for that...
scroll down to Port your Google Voice number out to another carrier

https://support.google.com/voice/...5667?hl=en

Account is GV Number no dashes and need Setup Voicemail PIN is Port PIN if not setup that yet

to setup the voicemail pin have go to settings and enable Call to listen Check and manage your voicemails by calling your Google Voice number.

https://voice.google.com/u/0/settings#voicemail
Your account number is your google voice phone number. The pin is the one you set up in Google voice to check voice messages.

Quote from fultee :
I kept getting the same with my Stylus. I don't know if it helped but there was an option in the about phone all the way at the bottom named "Update carrier configuration" I did that but still got the error but there were different options after. One option was try permanent unlock and I clicked that and it worked then had to restart now shows unlocked.
I am still not able to unlock.

I tried the "Update carrier configuration". But it didn't seem to do anything. Mine is showing "Current version 0.00"

Still getting that 180 days requirement error. I think I will have to contact support.

(Update: It worked. For some reasons, it did not detect my SIM card. I need to eject and reinsert the SIM tray. After that it is showing my previous phone number and Current version is shown as "3.00". The rest is as you described. Thank you!)

Just got iPhone 12 order to go through now using MS Edge (InPrivate mode) for $165+tax via Google Voice port in.
Pro tip: make sure the Zip Code Metro asks you for is the correct one listed on your Google (Gmail) account info. Suspect that might have been the conflict for me yesterday.

FYI: Yesterday my order failed using Firefox (got the "Please contact us...your security is important" message). After the order didn't go through, Metro locked up the GV number until I tried for the third time today. Second attempt to get the order to go through yesterday returned "number invalid" error message or something like that as Metro hadn't released the hold on my GV number yet following the first attempt.
Good luck SD'ers, keep trying - it is possible
I have tried different Google accounts, different browsers, different credit cards, different names and nothing works. I always get to the end and it then tells me I have to contact them which is useless.

Noope! it is still $40 with port-in number!
if you want a new number it would be $20 + $65 = $85

After the first month, can I switch to a cheaper plan? I know I can just keep it locked in my drawer for the next 6 months. But I think I saw metro has a $25/month plan

Tried to add a line but ordered couldn't through and now account shows 'Sorry, you are not eligible to add a new line'. So called them and reason it gives this message is not because account is blacklisted, but because the port had started, even though order didn't go through. So they said just wait a bit (couple hours, maybe the day), then that attempted port drops off and error message goes away.
