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.

So I'm planning to purchase this phone for my dad but he is already a straight talk user. This deal will just send me the phone and a 30 day card, right? And I will be able to activate it and carry his number over to the new phone correct?
No, the 30-day plan is attached to the IMEI of the phone, not a separate plan that can be entered into a separate account. However, I believe that you might be able to order it as an upgrade phone from his account and have the plan automatically be attached to his account that way (although that may ruin the surprise if it's a Christmas gift or something).

Edit: Actually, I'm not sure about that. You can't transfer the plan to another IMEI, but if you were to order it and then he activates it as a new / upgrade phone on his own account, that might work and keep the plan attached to the new phone, but activated on an existing line in his account. Maybe someone who's tried that can chime in.

Should "auto pay" be activated when purchasing? The price of the data plan is a little different if "auto pay" is activated. Would it matter or cause any issues later on whether "auto pay" is activated or not? Thanks.

Hi,

If I purchase this, I receive a 30-day prepaid plan with it.
Do I need to buy another $45 prepaid card for second month to be eligible for unlocking, or can I just use the initial 30 days and wait until the 61st day for the unlock?

Thanks

The latter. No need to refill, the phone will still unlock on 61st day.

FCC is useless, unless you plan on spending $20k to hire an attorney and actually go to court

Text to their server after the activation and know right away when the phone is unlocked. Always 60 days unless something is new recently.

During checkout it asks for a login (or you can create a new one). Would it be ok to use the same email that I used back in November of last year to get the SE 3, or should I use a new email? I see that they still have my info from before if I use the same email.
Yes. I used the same from that deal too.

Edit: had to disable autopay

Anyone know if this can be used on Verizon before being unlocked? Thinking it may work since it uses Verizon as the provider on the back end, but not sure.
