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.

Quote from BlueRoute5056 :
Just wanted to clarify, but we will have to use our 30 day plans to activate and start the whole unlocking phase? It's my first time, but from what I gathered. We activate the phone via straighttalk online/ call, start 30 day plan, then wait 30 days more afterwards? Is there a way to save the 30 day silver plan for later usage? Like if it was possible to activate without the silver plan. Thanks!
The plan is tied to the phone IMEI, so you've got to use it in order to start the unlock countdown timer. You can set the phone up and use it as a Wi-Fi device without cell service for now and activate the plan later, but that will delay the unlock. The 60 day countdown starts when the ST service is activated (using their online activation page or calling the activation number).

It sounded that people were having issues after receiving the phone and activating it. Can someone please provide a step-by-step instruction to activate the phone, without voiding the 60-day unlock goal? really appreciated!I was thinking to use this new iPhone 13 as a WIFI device and a camera for a month or two, before I activate the phone for a month service, meanwhile I continue using my old iPhone until its cell service ends. But seeing all these activation problems reported today, I wonder if I should just activate the phone as soon as I receive it. Unlocking the phone in 60 days is critical!
Activation took 2 minutes for me. All you need to enter to activate is IMEI, not even the sim card number, which is automatically tied to IMEI.

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?
It's already been covered. Not a good idea.

No. I had it shipped via UPS and they just dropped the package at door.

If you have the tracking number, you can log onto their site and see if it mentions signature required.

So I got my phone and I'm so annoyed. Where is my plan pin? It says it's 15 numbers long but u don't see it. All I see and my imei, SIM card number, and 2 other set of numbers but they aren't 15 numbers long. I even look at my email and nothing


Also I used my imei on total instead of straight talk so it's screwing me up, and it's hard to get a real person on the line at straight talk

They don't give plan PINs when bundled with new phones … the plan is tied to the phone / IMEI. Activate the phone through their online activation page and the plan will automatically start.

No … it's 60 days. Lots of previous discussion about it earlier in the thread.

Oh man, that's sucks for me. Like I said I think I activated my imei on total because I was so excited and just went through instruction quickly. When I do it on straight talk it obviously says it's been used

That shouldn't be a problem as long as the activation completed successfully. They're sister companies and some phones can be activated on their other companies (ST / TF / Total) without rebranding. I have purchased an ST phone and activated it on Tracfone before … it still unlocked 60 days later (a number of people have done that to get cheaper plans back when a plan purchase wasn't required with the phone). Try texting UNLOCK to 611611 and see if it gives a date.

The problem is that when I was doing it on total I couldn't finish because it's asking for a plan pin. Which as someone informed me I shouldn't be needing

It unlocks somewhere between 1 day and 1 year. If only there was a place you could go to find out exactly.

You bought a Straight Talk plan not one for Total, phones may activate on either but plans are different.
