I got a shipping notification two nights ago but the serial# or IMEI doesn't show up in "Manage lines" on totalbyverizon account. Any idea how to get the IMEI without contacting the support? I want to try activation before the phone is actually delivered. I have about 4 IMEIs in my account, some are inactive. actual phone itself is supposed to be delivered tomorrow.

How did you activate without receiving the phones first? Where did you get the IMEI from? My shipping notification email doesn't contain any IMEI info.
I just follwed the steps like below... many followed in this deal i guess...
I got email that my phones were shipped.. around 7.35pm ( all EST times) , literally i follwed steps... it worked for me
I saw someone posted... time is crucial... someone said we should act fast... dont know really the time gap though...
How long ago you got shipment notifaction and after that any time gap ?

Day 1: Order with GV number or any number which is not Tracfone related. This is just for getting message.

Day 2/3/4: Whichever day the phone ships, immediately (dont delay beyond few hrs) login to your account and go to Manage Lines page. Select the IMEI from the dropdown. Go to activate page and select Activate now under "New phone Purchased through Total Wireless.". Click I want a new number radio button and enter your zip. Input the copied IMEI in the next page and follow the next prompts for activation. Once the activation is successful, the Manage Lines page will display the phone number instead of IMEI.

Day 3/4/5: Whenever you receive the phone, just pop in the sim card in the phone and text UNLOCK to 611611. You should receive confirmation message with unlock date 60 days from the day you activated the phone online. Enjoy your new phone.

PS: I am yet to try step 3 as I haven't received the phone

Text UNLOCK to 611611 not help you for anything....
Even you never text to 611611, you still will get it unlocked after 60 days

Just wanted to say thanks to all in this thread for the help.
I followed all the instructions and everything went smooth.

I didnt want to use my main gv number so I put in some extra work to get a new burner GV number and ported that instead.

Received the phone earlier this week. Never turned it on. Went through the activation process online and provided the port info. Received a call from Total Wireless to let me know everything was OK and the port would take approximately 2 days.

Yesterday, received an email that port was complete. This morning popped in the SIM and powered on phone for first time. Everything worked great.

Now sent the UNLOCK text to 611611 (had to send it twice) and it says my phone will be eligible to be unlocked o 02-03-25. So we will see if its automatic or If I have to do anything then.

Some work involved, but at the end of day this is killer deal for a 2024 midrange phone.

Now I'll probably just put the phone away and wait those 60 days which seems like an eternity. I'm sure by then i'll be tempted with the s25 lineup or a deal for an unlocked phone will pop up sooner.

Anybody still able to purchase another phone and get it to show as discounted in their cart? I can select it as "free" and add to my cart with the correct package but when I go to cart it shows full phone price.

I have done 2 successfully, so maybe that's the limit, even though the site says 4.

If anyone gets this to work, please post steps taken.

I think two is the limit per account. If you need more, you might have to create another account.

Will this phone work on AT&T (or an AT&T MVNO) once unlocked? What about using with a local sim when traveling abroad? (likely various countries in Europe, Mexico, Costa Rica).

I think it should work in gsm networks once unlocked. In motorola US online website this model is showing various bands including 5g bands. I highly doubt the total wireless phone is restricted to total wireless ( verizon) only. As long as the network band supported by this phone we should be okay... i am in your situation also... hope this phone works when i travel overseas..

My 2nd phone (a54) arrived a week ago. I tried the 'activate with new number as soon as you get the shipping confirmation' trick, but it kept forcing me back to the 'port a number' option. I just left it on my desk for a week and didn't bother activating it, as my first phone's (Edge) monthly service plan was still active. Finally went to activate it online, and sure enough it worked with a new number now. Instant activation & no need to port.

Unfortunately already paid the $3 GV port out fee, whoops. Guess I'll save that for a future port deal.

Lol, RC most likely is "reward cash"
Maybe he/she referred to use credit card reward to purchase from Amazon...

I can see a better way to score a Pixel 9 from T-Mobile, using Metro iPhone 12 deal.
Get an iPhone in Metro for 99+tax(7-x%)+65 - number port-in is required. Get GV number - $3 to unlock
If you have Costco membership & existing T-Mobile account, get a Pixel 9 by trading in the iPhone and pay only the taxes - in FL tax will be 56.
Also get $75 Costco gift card for upgrading the line. New Pixel 9 price will be approximately 150+.
