First iPhone12 will cost $124.99.
To activate this line, you have to be able to receive a verification text message on that iPhone12. After you activate it online and have an account at metropcs website, you can add a second iPhone12 for $84.99.
Device automatically unlocks after 12 months and doesn't require having service. iPhone12 is locked to MetroPCS.
You can let the first month expire and your account will automatically close. Nothing to do from your side.
Amazon Prime activation (also requires a text message to the first device):
https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/b...e/activate
Prime will end as soon as your first line is closed or expired.

What will be the breakage be in the first $125 bill? Will it show plan cost ($75) and device cost ($50) separately? Can someone give some example?
Context: my office reimburses $100 a month but only for carrier charges and not the device cost. So I want to make sure that bill has the right split and I can reimburse $75.
The order email will clearly show the breakdown.
Considering the $75 tier has Prime idk why yall aren't using it, strange.

Should I trade in the unlock 86% battery life device? Or should I trade in this 100% battery life black new locked device? I dont need the phone, but I anticipate using the 12 after 365 day unlock, so not a bad idea. But given a choice I would rather use the unlocked iPhone 12 now...
But after entering the Port-in details and payment details and reaching the final page where I click "I agree to T&C" and hit "Make the payment", I'm presented with a page that says:
Metro CC couldn't help - I've been dealing with at least 6 hours worth of CC calls over 4 days - between CC and Port-in departments and 5-6 times attempting to place a new order - and I'm nearly about to give up on this.
I know the URL says payment reject, but my CC shows a charge for $90 and then an immediate reversal - a real payment rejection shouldn't show up at all, right? Also this is the same payment card I successfully used for the 1st line.
Is there any insight you could provide on how you navigated that?

$75 is also a lot of money to burn. Might as well activate the line so you can port the number out, and use T-Mobile Tuesday. MetroPCS changed their policy to 1 year for unlock.

If they object, somehow, have the blue one on hand or say you came with the wrong one, leave, come back 30 minutes later with the blue one and proceed with that
No, it will be unlocked after 1 year. It is on their website.
Metro by T-Mobile's approach to device unlocking
Once a device becomes eligible for unlocking (eligibility requirements are described below), Metro by T-Mobile will automatically and remotely unlock the device within two business days if the device supports remote unlock.
Some devices cannot be remotely unlocked by Metro by T-Mobile. In these cases, Metro by T-Mobile will send a notification to the device within two business days of it becoming eligible, with next steps to complete the unlock process.
If you received a notification that your device is eligible to be unlocked, and you need instructions for completing the unlocking process, click here.
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.
