This phone was released in June 2024. You must have had some other phone model.

Yep been having to manually check the order daily at https://www.totalwireless.com/sup...rack-order
I added totalwireless.com to the approved domain in Hotmail settings and that seems to have fixed the issue. Just got shipment confirmation email.

I was having some challenges earlier adding a second line to my account for a second Edge. I was now able to add it with ID verification and paid $30 for second line plus ~$20 in taxes. Hoping this doesn't take as long as the first one to get shipped.

Phone is excellent and a great deal if we can max out the 2 per account at this price point (~$135 for two lines for one month).

How you do ID verification? In my side, they will skip verification once I logged into my account, as I did it days ago. And I can not get 2nd line discounted.

Not sure how long ID verification is valid. It showed ID verification expired when I added second line and had to reverify to complete the order. Suspecting three weeks.

Once you port a GV number to an actual mobile vendor for a short term plan (say, 1 month), you use this line to get another GV number. Do you get to continue using the new GV number after the 1 month service expires?
Yes, once you are able to get a new GV#, this new GV# is permanent regardless of what happens to the actual mobile number. I always removed the actual mobile number from the GV account after I got a new GV#.

Yes they do but I would first activate it with the new line to start the unlock counter. After the first month I usually just pop in my TracFone sim. You probably don't have to wait though.

Thank you. So, you confirm it works with Tracfone? I was sceptical bc in the past, Tracfone was on GSM while Total on CDMA as fas as I'm concerned, but that is kinda outdated classification nowadays, I believe.

What if I activate and switch in a couple of days?

So I'm dumb and entered a number that just expired on Metro as the number to buy a phone with on Total wireless

Activated just fine. Then got phone call from Total saying no, it didn't, and porting process is stuck

Of course, the account number at Metro I've got and gave. But the transfer PIN isn't the one on my account and they can't proceed with porting

Anyone know how to get that PIN now? I don't have access to online Metro account anymore because service expired

And what if I just don't do anything to fix the stuck porting situation? Phone will remain locked, service expires in a month? Is that all?
So I couldn't figure out my situation. Didn't have time to go to Metro store (which from what I read does give you port out PIN)

My Moto edge no longer has service

Does anyone know how soon it can be added to another Total wireless SIM?

For Metro it's after 30 days from first activating IIRC

Similar here?

Thank you so much for posting this, you have no idea how much I appreciate it. My main service is Tracfone but I had no clue I could just pop in my SIM. I just tested it and it works instantly and perfectly. However, definitely make sure you activate it first, otherwise that 60 day unlock timer won't start counting down.

Edit: I forgot to add, the selfie camera on the Edge 2024 is massively improved from the Edge 2022. I was expecting just a small upgrade but it's immensely better. The Edge 2022's selfie cam looks totally washed out and awful in comparison.

Edit 2: Make sure you wait at least a week or so to try out the Tracfone sim after activating, otherwise it'll mess up the port process like what happened to me.

Yes I confirm it does work. In the past month I have bought the stylus 2024 and the edge 2024 and both work fine with my tracfone sim. I have another edge on the way hopefully.

Activate the phone as soon as you get the shipping notification.
