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...

All we needed was a phone to get activated on the metro, and the 180-day counter started.
It's been 7+ days for me. GV number isn't ported to Metro - no incoming calls or texts. They show up in GV. Will this affect the unlock eligibility? I was told that Metro would only unlock if the phone was fully activated and functional on their network.

I hate to say it, but anything a metro employee says on chat or over the phone can be taken with a pinch of salt (most of them are not sure what they are even talking about).

"One hundred eighty (180) days must have passed since the device's activation date."
There is no mention of 180 days of service anywhere, so they are actually enforcing their unlock policy, which is "180 days have passed since activation" I am sure you haven't even read their policy
Somehow Metro PCS has a worse website than AT&T, and AT&T's website is god awful.
