I hate slickdeals. I have 7 phones lying around from the various Total and Metro deals. Why do I buy them? I don't know. Why is it so addictive? I don't know.

I guess those 7 are getting another new friend.
Good Times

Tips/Problems on this deal (I just tried to buy it and failed).

#1: You can sign up for texts and use coupon code WELCOME15 for 15% off the phone.
#2: If you select "Great Price", then hang out with the tab open and don't do anything for a few minutes like you are thinking about it, you will be offered a code for free shipping in a popup dialog. I found this out because I was having issues.
#3: A coupon site says code GMGP-7BFB will get you $50 savings on next month service. Haven't tried it, may not work, or may be useful for second month service.
#4: There are sites that can give you a cash rebate on purchase from Total by Verizon. I cannot specifically link or name them according to SD rules.

My problem:
To port the number, I have to provide my number to port. The Total website is then supposed to send a text validation code. I never got the validation code. I attempted to use chat and they couldn't resolve it, and offered to let me buy over the phone, which I declined to do, afraid I'd lose my CB and coupon code discounts. My number is with Mint Mobile.

They said it may have to do with a system upgrade, so I'll try again tomorrow.

It could be that GV numbers are ineligible (mine is a Mint number), or it could indeed be a systems issue where you can try again tomorrow...

However, if your number wasn't eligible, a good system would at least send you a message saying why, not just ghost you.

WELCOME15 takes $42 off the phone, but removes the $230 discount. Was free shipping at checkout for me. That code from coupon sites is a referral code for the rewards which gives you 5000 points, tho you have to wait 2 months for them to be available.

My AT&T number worked fine for verification, tho you don't port in the number yet. You start the port in process once you have the phone and activate it. There is a third party id verification process you have to do to get the $230 discount and requires you to take pictures of your id and provide a picture of your face.

Yesterday I had the same problems with receiving the verification code. One number is with Metro (T-mo) and one number is with Qlink (T-mo), which both should qualify. At first I thought it was a problem with Total system, but then I tried a number with Freedompop GSMT (T-mo) and got the code. So I don't know what to make of it.

Like you said, if a number does not qualify, then Total should clearly say that it's ineligible instead ghosting you.

To be clear, this would unlock to support any North American carrier?

I don't know about using a different number for actual porting. Two weeks ago I ported a FP GSMT number to Total for an iPhone11. Will do another FP GSMT-to-Total today when UPS delivers the phone.

Hey
Trying to wing this for a friend outside the US.
How do I go about obtaining a burner number for him to transfer in?

Do I have to pay for service and what is the unlock procedure like?

Thanks
