This has been your PSA.
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.

On the bottom, they have a number transfer pin request section and they spell out the locked number restriction for pin transfer. Considering any phone is locked only for 60 days, I am not sure how this short term lockage would play out for pin transfer.
It's my 1st time with ST. I have also had the number for two decades, so I don't want to risk idling it for a month just to avoid paying an extra month of service. I need to port out of Mint asap so I may just park my real number somewhere else for cheap and just request a new number (less thinking, lower risk).
So I woudn't be worried about porting out of ST, but to be safe don't leave it to the very last day of your billing cycle.
But for me, I think it's worth it.
Remember, the XR is 3 year older so iPhone 13 has faster processor, and better screen.
The XR only has single len camera, the 13 has dual cameras, with Ultrawide, 2X optical zoom/5X digital zoom.
The 13 has night mode so if photos will be better at night or in dark room.
Also I upgraded mainly cuz 13 has a minimum of 128GB storeage, where as my previous XR only has 64GB.
Besides, I needed a fresh battery as well.
I have chase 25% offer. How can I also use PayPal offer and RetailMNt CashBack?

Does that mean no need to call ST, just wait 10 weeks, the IMEI of the phone automatically removed from your account?
Also, there is a possibility that you might be able to activate the brand new ST phone on your existing TF or Total Wireless account as if you purchased it from them (without ever activating it on ST). I actually did that with a cross-company phone like that a while ago and it still unlocked after 60 days. In past years, you needed to have a phone "rebranded" by calling them before doing that, but some of the newer phones work fine with an activation on the sister company as if it was their own phone. For instance, I purchased a phone from ST, but then went to the TF website and logged into that account and then chose "activate new phone" and "phone purchased from TF" (even though it was from ST) and the online activation proceeded smoothly on my existing TF phone number, just as if I had purchased the phone as an upgrade from them. Note that this gets into a YMMV situation that may be more messing than most people probably want to try, but just mentioning it as a curiosity. Also, if you attempt that, I'd probably only try it if you can get the automatic online activation to accept it as a native TF or Total device … if you have to call them, the rep might enter it as a BYOD phone, which could mess up the automatic unlock. Also, you'd lose the month of service from ST that you paid for in case you care about it.
