You can call metro porting dept. @ 800-518-7519 and ask them to fix it, or leave it alone and it will complete in 7 to 30 days.

Did you trade in a locked iPhone 12 with AT&T? Did they accept it after you shipped it? I'm thinking of trying it at Costco. Any suggestions?
I did the trade-in in a corporate store.

There was a deal at BB on Pixel 9 launch day, BB gave about $800 in trade-in value for iPhone 12, making new Pixel 9 $0 out of pocket. On top of that, in my state, BB didn't even charge sales tax on the new phone, so iPhone 12 and Pixel 9 was an even exchange.

With Metro's $75 iPhone 12 and $3 for Google Voice unlock, Pixel 9 was to be had for $78.
Did you just let the metro line cancel since no auto pay was setup? How soon after getting it and activating did you go and trade it in?

I activated the first line (paid $185) to ensure that autopay isn't turned on and turned in the phone immediately after that.

For the second line (paid $83), I turned in before trading in but didn't even bother to activate the line. Traded in a day.

I got an email from TMo after about 15 days about auto activation but that's about it.
