Just wanted to verify my timeline for doing this is right.
- Buy Galaxy a14 on Monday.
- Two day shipping, arrives Wednesday. (Business Day #2)
- Pay off phone Wednesday and make a call/text. (Can I pay off phone earlier - before it arrives?)
- Cancel service Thursday (Business Day #3 - last day to avoid activation fee)
- Leave in drawer without service for 60 days, tweak apps, SD card, settings....
- Unlocked automatically
- Use on any USA network (probably US Mobile).

FYI, Moto Edge they are selling is the old 2021 version. Be aware.

Yes. So definitely not worth for these phones.

I've done this a couple of times but I am no expert. IE $1 X 36 months plus tax on $36 (at least in Illinois) plus a few dollars for pro rated monthly. As long as I cancelled within 3 days of activation, activation fees were waived. So around $40. I did the IPhone 12 at $2.78 month for 36 months. I plane to pay it off for $100.08 plus a few dollars for pro rated monthly. I did all this on Walmart's website without any issues and my phones arrive next week.
Can u please explain step by step how to do this. Say from clicking on phone u like a > continue > select signup or upgrade or add new line ………….

Would the idea of holding any of these as future trade ins be viable here?

Not an existing customer with Vz. Trying to sign up through new customer option on Walmart page, but getting an error as 'The request has timed out, please try again later. If the issue continues please visit your nearest Walmart Mobile Desk.' after 2 to 3 mins processing. Tried couple of times. Any tips to move forward ?

Do I have to visit Verizon to unlock the phone ? Trying to understand how does full payment and unlock process works. Thank You
Unlock is automatic after 60 days and you can pay off phone online or on the phone.

Did you pay off the phone and cancel the service within 3 days to avoid activation? If so, how did you pay it off? I'm assuming once the phone is unlocked it can be used on any cellular service? Thanks for your help.

That is correct. I called in to pay off and called again the next day to cancel. I think you can pay off online but I haven't tried yet. Once unlocked, pretty sure you can use on any major carrier.

It's showing $65/month is that right? I can just cancel within 3 days to avoid activation and the monthly fee?

​For new accounts, yes. They do not for existing postpaid accounts as far as I know.
