Do it on total by verizon for iPhone 11 for $100 with plan and unlocks in only 2 months. Metro unlocks in 1 year now, and nobody knows if you need one year of active service or not.

When did their unlock policy change from 6 months to a year?

Not a bad deal if your intention is to trade in... Promotion is online so don't have to be up sold in store, however can't add 2nd line online. Requires visiting a physical store.

Buyer beware: Sadly, Metro raised unlock period to 365 days after activation (from 180 days): https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/t...ock-policy

wow. Thanks to the other posters who said they raised the unlock period criteria to 1 year. Hopefully, that won't affect those who bought the deal pre-May 8th.

also, that previous deal on the Iphone 11 was $63 or $65, I think. Not a big difference for 1 month of service. But still an extra $10 or so.

Most people are blocked at 4, your experience is rare to be able to be able to replicate.

tablets orders are different than the phones for some reason.

The messed up part is that my Father-in-law just got one of their phones in December and was planning on porting out soon, I think he just barely missed it.

I'll probably be porting his number over to Boost for a free phone and then waiting for the phone to unlock in another 6 months...

I didn't know this, so you can trade in multiple devices in one order?
