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.

If you have 2 lines with them in one account then let the 1st line runs out w/o paying, they disable the 2nd line also? I was hoping to test out the 2nd phone which was bought 20 days or so apart. I can't make any calls now b/c the whole account is suspended.

You might get lucky and have a decent local Metro store. But overall, dealing with salespeople at Metro stores is an unpleasant experience, mine included. I went to my local Metro stores about 2 years ago to inquire on a deal, and their salespeople were acting like a bunch of sleazy, hungry car salespeople with bait-and-switch tactics. I got out of there in a hurry.

This post describes my friend's experience when he went to a local Metro store in AZ to buy his S23FE. He did pay under $150 for it, but it was not a good experience.

Looks like I got lucky. I scored the S23 FE + 1 month for $128.99 out the door. The staff at my particular location was more than pleasant throughout the entire transaction.

If you login and check your account, you'll notice there's only one due date for the entire account. So yes, if you don't pay that amount by the due date, all lines will probably be suspended at the same time.

I ordered more than one device under this deal but my total amount due for the next month is less that the sum of individual lines' monthly charges. I assume they're applying credits from charging the first month in full toward the second month.

I have an existing Consumer Cellular that I use as a back up number. I hate CC so I want to port out my number in the next two weeks to a new carrier. I want to keep my monthly cost under $20 though (currently CC is $24 after fees but I've effectively had it for $5 due to stacking some credit card offers).
Anyway, I don't actually need a new phone, but I like the option of reselling the phone once it is unlocked or upgrading my current back up iPhone 7+ before the battery completely dies.
After the recent price hike, is this deal still worth it for a first time customer, or should I wait for a better deal to return? Thanks
Go to US Mobile. They have a $180 for 12 months plan.

A Metro phone is unlocked when Metro adds its IMEI to a database of Unlocked Phones (Metro's or Apple's). There's an outfit called directunlocks.com that claims they can add a phone's IMEI to those databases using their status as a phone recycler, but that's an abuse of their priviledge. I think someone inquired and was told it costs $15 to check and see if they can unlock your phone, then another $80 to get it unlocked. I don't remember the exact costs, but they weren't cheap.
