All current Tracfone , Straight Talk, Total Wireless, Simple Mobile ONLY operates and activates on the Verizon Network exclusively. That's cause Verizon bought all of them. So any new phone will unlock in 60 days from ALL of them.

This has been your PSA.

$262 otd to California. After reading 25 pages, here's my summary:

1. Use PayPal to get 7.5% back by logging into your PayPal account and search for promos, select StraightTalk. Will take you directly to StraightTalk site. That's what i did.
2. Chase card has 15% promo but caps at $15 discount, based on other users. I do not have Chase.
3. Purchase iPhone 13 with Silver plan. Must be Silver or higher to get $200 phone discount.
4. Do not select autopay to see PayPal payment option.
5. You can ship to different address if you're gifting it. They just need to understand the terms if they plan to unlock and use elsewhere or just stay with StraightTalk.
6. New phone needs to be activated, through StaightTalk online, for 60-day unlock countdown to begin. Phone does not need to be opened/used.
7. After the 30 plan expires, do not purchase another plan. Use it on WiFi or not at all.
8. After 60 days, phone will automatically unlock for any carrier.
9. Text "UNLOCK" to 611611 to confirm/see countdown.
10. Hope all goes well for us all.

You don't need to do anything. It should get unlocked after 60 days. Some rare case it didn't get unlocked, go https://www.tfwunlockpolicy.com/wps/portal/ and give the imei (and the phone number you got) and it will let you "reprocess" the unlock request online, if you still can't get it unlocked, you just call the phone number on that web page and they will unlock it for you. With that said, most time it will get unlocked automatically and you don't need to do anything.

ok, I did buy a couple of the pixel 6a's from straight talk last BF for 99 dollars each and cost 10 dollars for 30 day plan. I love the pixel 6a's. I am interested in this apple 13 because I just bought the MAC Mini M4 last week and I like it. So mixing the apple iphone 13 with mac mini should be cool. I then looked on youtube for comparisions between the pixel 6a and iphone 13, and saw a number of reviews. They seem about the same in specs but 6a has 6gb ram and the iphone 13 has 4gb ram. Both phones had positive comparisons. 260 dollars for the iphone 13 with 1 month of silver (45 dollars) month plan.Both phones are 2 years old. Is this a good deal or not. Suggestions.
I have a Pixel 6a, which I like, and my wife has a iPhone 13, which I also like. 😉 I think the camera takes better photos on the Pixel and its phone/text spam-blocking features are great, but otherwise I prefer the iPhone from both a hardware and software perspective -- and the cross-functionality with Apple's ecosystem is really nice. That said, $244 is a good deal, but the new iPhone SE4 is supposed to come out in March at $499 with the iPhone 16 SoC (8 GB RAM, faster CPU/GPU, AI-ready), so I'd recommend waiting for that if you already have a phone you're happy with.

Any chance this will have a positive trade-in value when the SE4 is released? I am rocking an SE2, and it is getting a bit long in the tooth. I planned on upgrading to the SE4 next year.
Personally I'd wait for the SE4. The SE2 still has plenty of power for now. iPhone 13 won't be much of an upgrade in most areas and the SE4 isn't far off.

Does the unlock has to connect to verizon tower? I might be travelling aboard at the 60 day. Is it possible the unlock could happen over wifi ? Any idea, thx much.

Has anyone placed a second order and got the Silver plan discounted to $30, or it needs to be on the same order?

$250 trade-in value right now at Apple, but they will likely change it before the SE4 was released. This year trade-in values were reduced in January and slightly changed in March. I would just wait to get the new SE4 to avoid the hassle of unlocking this device as you wouldn't be able to use it with your carrier until January anyway, which gives you 2-3 months of use until SE4 release. Definitely your call though, you probably won't lose too much.

I too am looking to find the answer to this. I plan to gift it overseas and want to know if this can be unlocked over Wi-Fi.

Check and make sure your credit card didn't decline the transaction. Mine did, and I had to approve it and repurchase

3rd party 'services'?
I highly doubt those work
some people were using an rsim to get it to work with different carriers

check that on the bay
I saved it because I was going to use it with the metro deal since it's now a 12 month wait period. I didn't buy it though.

Silver unlimited plan: $45
=$241.5
- 8% CB = $19.32

Yes, silver plan discounted to $30 on the second line if you hit the "duplicate" button at the top of the order page.
