Let be clear on their unlocking policy. There is 365 days waiting time, and also the phone should have service for 180 days within 365 days. This is per my recent conversation with their customer service agent.
Please remember that their unlock policy criteria does not specify automatic unlock regardless of the service time.

You're missing the point here. 99% of us only want to pay $125 1x to get the phone. You want to pay $70 a month for 2 years. Not us😀

so I traded off the iphone 12 w/o even setting up the esim. Now I want to setup the esim from metro on my own other pixel phone. Has anybody had luck doing so? I am not able to get into the metro tmobile account.
Yep, it's a problem

I actually wrote a few pages back:

"I unboxed and activated in order to get service active and do the transfer, yes. And yes, you need to have SMS to that line to log in to account and do the transfer in the first place That's another important note with Metro actually. You need to get the number ported out to another IMEI if you intend to sell the phone as Metro locked. Sure you could use the other SIM of the dual SIM configuration But Metro ties the SIM to the IMEI and the only way to port it to another IMEI is while you have access to the account! For which you need text coming in to it! "

From my experiences with Metro a year ago, when I did a similar deal and then sold the Metro locked phone without doing the IMEI transfer first with SIM in phone, the only way I could do it was to go to a Metro store and pay 25 bucks or so

You can try calling. But it won't work. They need that text so you can get into your account

It makes sense from their end: they want to make sure the locked phone that's tied to someone's account isn't stolen and someone else just stuck their Metro SIM in there

Won't it be better to go with Total Wireless? Their iPhone 12 is $180 plus two months of $50 per month total $280 to get it unlock?

i think you missed the point

these are to trade in

Also i believe the total wireless only needs 1 month service and and an additional month it unlocks

I'd prefer metro and an QPE unlock card.

You have to think outside the box. No one here will pay $70 a month for this dinosaur.

People realize they're burning money by not activating? We paid for the plan. Kinda strange to just throw it out haha
Most of us are only going to use it for trade in or QPE unlock and the current carrier.

What's QPE unlock? Does it really unlock?
