I called the port in dept and all the previous port in attempts have all been cancelled. I got so frustrated and ended up opening a new account and paid $75 for the second iP12.

did you got new account with same name and address? I am also having trouble adding a line

OK guys. I'm done with this thing. Got 3 iPhone 12s, all traded in, account is now suspended after 1 month. This is one of the dumbest moves from Metro

Yes visible still works. They've cracked down on VoIP numbers.

how do you get a visible number?

If you dont pay after a month, naturally they will have to suspend the prepaid!?

its not taking second order with same account and same address. Did you used different address or changed something else?

Interesting, I just checked my order status and it says it will be shipping today (but hasn't shipped yet). Unfortunately, the button to activate the line is disabled (because the phone hasn't shipped yet).

Today I received an email from Metro that my phone has shipped. To recap, I had applied for a 72hr grace extension and ordered the phone on Sunday during the extension. However, it didn't ship out on Monday and the 72hr grace extension was going to expire that day so I assumed they were going to cancel the order.

I tried activating the line by clicking the activate button on the order status page without success:

Sorry, we are currently experiencing issues processing your activation. Please try again or call us 1-888-8-METRO8 for help transferring your phone number

I'm guessing this is because my account is suspended. I will try again tomorrow and if it's still not working I'll try switching the device for a line in my other Metro account over to this phone in order to trigger the unlocking timer.

I just realized that if I'm unable to activate this phone, that means the port out won't complete and I can reuse this Visible line for another Metro phone deal. 😎 I will probably need to request a new number from Visible but that's not a big deal.

did you used the same address, card etc? on 3rd order?

Good find , I am in the same boat. No "add new line" button. Which phone number do you need to call 611 ?

Thats metro port department. They do unlock the port request. But then new order fails again. How to order a new line without getting an error. Any tips?

How do you apply for the 72hr grace extension?

You alrdy paid for 1st month -- during your 2nd month (when service is suspended for non-payment) there will be an option in your online account for free service extension without having to pay the balance due

Should be shown near the payment due area when you login -- your account will be closed and deleted when your 3rd month is supposed to start so you can use your free 72hr window anytime during your 2nd month

Does anyone know if porting out the # from the metro line before the 1st month of service is over will effect the 365 day unlock timer?
