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.

What's the monthly price of the Metro plan after port in? And do you have to stay for a full 12 months at that plan to get it unlocked? Straight Talk unlocks 60 days after activation and you can move to whatever carrier you want.
Metro's unlock is 365 days

I mean the ordering confirmation.
... I give up. Not a clue what to tell you. You give no info. Are you the guy that gave me thumbs down on my post to you?

Do you have order number? YES OR NO.
If yes, go check your email and see what is up. If you see no email, than call them.
Why don't you just list the steps that you did do. Within a few minutes I got email with order number and over the last 4 hours my order is processing.

What's the deal here? Can't this be obtained from MetroPCS with port in for half this price?
You pay $30 more here after $20 paypal cb, but unlock phone just 2 months. So it's ymmv. If you want a unlock phone soon, take this, otherwise take metro

good advice. The way I see it for 240 dollars with Straight Talk, you get UNLOCKED PHONE in 60 days and pay NO MORE. The METRO you have to pay each month for 12 months and than they will unlock the phone. And you said the same thing. But I just expanded on having to pay 12 months of METRO compared to just ONE price for only 240 to get UNLOCKED phone that works on all networks. No brainer for me. Smilie

Can this be used on Total Wireless without any problems? Also Capital One Shopping has 10% off at Straight Talk so that should be the best bet because that would be $24 off instead of the limited $15 max from Chase.

If I activate the service online without opening the box, can I put the SIM card in another phone and use the service for one month ?

gave me the discount $200 on each, $30 on 2nd line Silver. I ended up only getting 1 FTR
Where exactly is the duplicate button? I'm on the Checkout/Order Summary page and don't see Duplicate at the top of anything?

I wouldn't. It probably won't work anyway in the other phone since the Tracfone brands (includtng ST) have been locking IMEIs to SIMs in many cases. If the system sees you switch, it probably won't unlock. No guarantees, but I wouldn't take the chance.

You don't need to pay for getting metro unlocked. But you have to wait. The key point is iPhone 13 won't be as valuable as it would be after 10 months (comparing 12 months unlock vs 2 months unlock)
