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.

@fungame @hpham you guys are amazing... Thanks..I really need to get that Samsung lite A7 low end slow motion tablet.... I'm actually using n30 now (got it last year $60 new number deal) but now I need an active line in order to hop on A7 tablet deal 😁
Ah, that tablet (Samsung A7 lite) is not slow at all.

My posters (including me) gave information on how to make it faster (I know it won't become Apple iPad speed).

Are you aware that the A7 tablet is not available for online order now (even for an existing customer using Add A Line)?

Good to hear that you got the 3rd phone.

For me, my 1st phone is Razr, after that ordered the Samsung A7L tablet, after that is the iphone 12.

Now when I tried to order another iphone 12, at last step, asked me to go to store...

Did you try ordering using one of the purchased devices?
Not sure if it matters. 2-3 posts of people unable to order were able to after someone suggested it.
I didn't want to risk it since my 2nd order had gotten messed up with porting due to other reasons. So I just ordered it on the 2md phone using browser and the metro data itself.

No, it was a different error message, saying the account info was incorrect and to go back and fix it. Meanwhile Tracfone sent the text that the number was being transferred, at 6:55pm last night and 4:37am this morning. When I requested a new NTP at 8am to try again, Tracfone responds with: We do not have any record in our system with your information.

And this will just be my second phone ever from Metro.
Had similar issues with a tracfone number that was at the end of its year service so I figured I would transfer. I had all the corect account info and it let me get through even entering my cc payment info. Metro process goes through to last step then errors and I get a text from tracfone saying my number is being transferred to a new carrier. This happened 2x and Tracfone reinstated the number 2x. 3rd attempt gave same results, I don't care about the number so just giving up on this and letting it go away...

Thanks. Yes, sounds very similar. My call to the Tracfone portability department was painless, but she told me Metro submitted a 14 digit account number, instead of the full 15 digits, so she advised calling them to resubmit. She did not reinstate the line, but said it is still active on the "billing side" and it still appears to work, even though NTP and BALANCE both return no record in our system. The line expires in 4 days, so like you, I think I might just let it go and take it as a sign that I don't need to purchase another phone.

I'd jump on the Sammy A15 5g with port-in if it could be unlocked in less than 6 mo for a fair price from a reliable source. Possible?
I got this 3 months ago. It worked on the tmobile network right away. Just had to get a physical sim free from tmobile or pay at the store. I guess this samsung is already on the tmobile network. It will auto unlock in 6 months. Only paid for one month of metro service.

Got it. I am also collecting many phones, but once upon a time I had no idea about this trick and used one phone for a long time since spending $1000 on a phone was not appealing to me.

Now I own many due to Metro and got this one for form factor for $149, including everything (added line).
I thought limit was 2 per home.

This month, I bought 3 within a week (two accounts, same street address). After that, orders started failing. Between May '23 and Jan '24, I bought 4 phones (3 accounts) shipped to the same address, but they were spaced at least a month apart.
