Will it unlock automatically irrespective of weather I'm in US or take the phone to UK?

What's the cheapest way to keep the phone number? They assigned a random number, but I like it, and want to keep it. Would it be possible to just port out without affecting the unlock thing?

Yes you can port out after activating without it affecting the unlock. You can port to NumberBarn ($2/month).

May I know where they are shipping it from .. if it's a central location or from individual cities 🤔.

Just curious and want to make sure I am home if it comes over the weekend. UPS usually avoids weekend delivery if I am not wrong

Strange. I received both my phones this morning, but before opening them I went to check ST.com under manage lines but it shows 0 lines in there.
Same, it shows 0 line on my account

That's great that they changed their policy then. It's been a couple of years since we had straight talk (we switched to T-mobile) and it was completely ridiculous dealing with them. Our phones never got unlocked so we just ended up throwing them away once we swapped to Tmobile.
Yeah, it used to be 1 year of active service, but it was a condition of the merger when Verizon acquired ST that new devices go under the Verizon unlock policy (i.e., auto unlock 60-days after activation).

I placed my order on ST.com on Wednesday evening and the phone arrived this morning. I haven't opened the phone, yet, but the activation packet is co-branded Total by Verizon and StraightTalk. I am following instructions on the activation packet, the activation process indicates, "It looks like the IMEI you entered belongs to another brand. Please try again with a different IMEI number." Anyone else experiencing this issue?

I'm in the queue for online customer service.

EDIT: Online customer service was able to activate the phone, once I opened it and inserted the SIM. It took about half an hour from the time I opened the chat til I got it up and running.

Quote from kc1988 :
Received phone yesterday, left unopen, and activated on ST website. On ST account page, shows 28 days remaining (one day counted down). Checked on the imeicheck site and my results show
Activation Status: Not Activated
Registered Device: No
Sim-Lock: Locked (as expected)
Does this site take more than one day to update the activation status? Will Activation Status continue to show Not Activated but then in 60 days, Sim_Lock will show as Unlocked? Would suck if open box in 60 days and was stilled locked to Straight Talk. TIA
You activated with Straight Talk which starts their timer to update the Apple database for unlock. Your iPhone will show as not activated, and this is according to Apple itself which is true since it's never been powered on or connected to their activation servers. The phone will be unlocked after the ST 60 days has passed.

I had same issues and customer service was able to activate using strait talk order number. Just keep saying "talk to an agent" until connected to human.

So you select a plan and cancel it after 1 month?

Once I activate the imei online. Can i take the sim card and put it into another phone that I have unlocked to take advantage of the new/line service for the month itll be active? will that interfere with the unlock process you think?



Quote from energyx :
After the 60 days from activation passes, the TF/ST system triggers an update in the Apple database. Once turned on and activated, it will follow whatever policy is in the database. It happens pretty reliably, but there have been cases of people having to call TF/ST.
You can check its SIM lock status here: https://imeicheck.com/simlock-iphone
