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...

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.

In my experience it has never actually worked with Cricket, Total Wireless, and ATT.
FWIW I have a pixel 6a from Total Wireless I never activated on their network. It's been 60 days but its still locked.

off topic : If you never activated your Total Wireless phone , your phone would not get unlocked for sure!

When you log into your new account and see a balance due, that's for the upcoming month, right? I'm pretty positive it is but the presentation as a balance due is a bit misleading. Do we need to cancel the line properly if we don't intend to keep service or should you just let it go and have it close itself due to not paying further?
In the same vein, is anyone just porting back into their original Google Voice account to keep their number? Just a flip flop back and forth?

If you care about GV number as porting back to GV will cost you money from Google but for most of us GV number is thrown away.

So I can't switch an activated Metro SIM into a new G Stylus 5G 2023 whether the G Stylus 5G 2023 is activated or not with the SIM it came with? Does it matter when the G Stylus 5G 2023 auto activates (21 days) with the new SIM never in the phone? Or can it even auto activate the phone itself without the SIM being inserted? I know the SIM itself will auto activate.

Read wiki, Metro will activate your phone on day 21, no matter your phone or SIM card is trashed , drowned, even sealed in the box...you don't need to put the SIM to activate your phone....it is automation process...
Ohhh. Thanks for the heads up. I'll need to get more info on this, then. I would like to get the number back for paying another $40 to do it? Not so sure that's worth it.
