When I add the phone and choose the $75 plan the total becomes $375 even though I chose port in and was told I am eligible. What's going on? FK metro and t-mobile

Goggle voice

Edit: I saw now it has to be non-VIP but they tell me it's eligible.

Yeah, they changed it recently. Google Voice and NumberBarn numbers no longer qualify for the largest discount. Your best bet is to sign up for Visible for $5 (first month) using a friend referral code.

Keep getting errors at the last step when trying to add a second line. Tried a new computer, ip, credit card, anything else?

They have their fraud shield activated on this one. It took me three orders to finally get one to go through. I'm pretty sure they are verifying that your IP location is somewhat near the shipping address for the device. It worked after I switched to my home VPN.

Yeah but that is called fraud, because when you are selling a sealed phone it is assumed that the warranty has not started, once you activate the phone the one year warranty time starts.
I answered someone that is not wanting to open his iphone 12. My point is that iphone 12 comes in a plastic wrapper only. Whereas iphone 13 you have to physically tear the paper seal to open the phone. No one is fraud anyone here.

I wonder if TMO accepts metro phones as a trade in?
As long as phone meets its physical condition needs - no front screen or liquid damage, along with Find My turned off and fully owned - T-Mo accepts all eligible phones including those locked to carriers.

Unless you are already on Go5G Next, wouldn't personally recommend due to higher monthly costs and that you still don't fully own your phone if trading in every 12 months.

Go5G+ lets you upgrade every two years, and you keep your old phone. Use such trade-in deals to get new ones and keep your 2-year-old phone as spares for some more time.

AT&T is my carrier. They dropped the valuation down and it's only 350 in credits
That's interesting that they moved it to the same tier as XR/XS, SE2/3 to $350 off. I see minimum for $700 is now a 12 Pro.

Usually T-Mo brings decent deals around Thanksgiving. Not sure if AT&T will do something similar. Hope T-Mo and VZ don't follow AT&T and downgrade value for 12.

Nice try, please read my comment again, I basically said doing that is fraud.

Yeah it is a very dry season for tech except tv.

Ssd t7 shield used to be 100, now not lower than 189.
I got 2 free iPhone se2 from cricket and traded in to metro for 245 net and got 2 12 minis, which were the latest model at the time.

I wonder if they are preparing for crisis as we speak.

Last time I checked with apple CS, I was told that the warranty starts when it was ordered from vendor. Say you order on 10/1, that's when warranty starts, not the day when you sell the phone on 1/1

I just had tracfone's annual plan 3000MB/3000min/3000sms plan for $50. It was my personal number and the deal showed up. THough this story happened 2-3 years ago.

So i plugged my TF number to check and metro shown approved but visit store. That is how i figured how TF works - would never buy TF for port out deals anymore.
I did my first order and porting from tracfone, it initially showed some sort of account # issue, after several tries it went through and it will delivered today

One Customer Rep told me to create a new account and that shows similar issue, another rep told me to wait 30 days before adding new line, clearly that's not correct either

Quote from anqi2000 :
I have the same issue. Just activated my account the tried to purchase a 2nd iphone but got the error at the last step.

What I was told by the porting team is that my account is too new. I need to wait at least 24 hours to place another order. Not sure if that's true but will give it a try tomorrow.

Let me know if you find a different solution.
