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.

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
Ugh. OK yeah, that makes it a bit messy since the ST plan wouldn't attach like that. You'll probably need to call on that one.

Quote from SlySol :
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).
If I set up the phone(say I am going to transfer all the apps and data to this 13 from my old iPhone with active cell service) and use it as a WIFI device, will it trigger the "activation"? That is, without using their online activation page or calling ST's activation number, will the phone get activated accidentally during the initial iPhone setup? Also, the phone will use a physical SIM coming with the package, so if I don't insert the SIM into the phone, it won't be activated, is that right? When it's time to start the 1-month service being postponed, I just need to insert the SIM card, visit the online activation page to start Activation, and the 60-day countdown, is that right? Thanks!!

No, the setvice will not be accidentally activated by setting up your phone or cloning the data (just don't select "transfer service" if prompted during the setup as mentioned in a previous post). You don't even need to remove the SIM … just leave it in the phone and it won't bother anything and then once you activate the service on their webpage at a later date, it will start working and the unlock countdown will be triggered.

After activation, can I remove the sim and insert a Safelink sim in since it's also a Tracfone company?
Will that mess up the unlock process?

Questions (without messing up the 60 day unlock):
1. Can the 30-Days Straight Talk Unlimited Service be activated at Tracfone (instead of Straight Talk)?

2. If yes to Q.1, can you combine (or transfer) another existing Tracfone 1500 Talk/ Text/Data line into this iPhone near (or after?) the end of 30-Days Unlimited?

3. If no to Q.1, can you transfer another existing Tracfone 1500 Talk/ Text/Data line into this iPhone after the end of 30-Days Unlimited, without getting a new Tracfone SIM?

TIA

Did anyone who got their phone got a card that you scratch off to activate your plan? Mines didn't and I'm here talking taking with straight talk and we are going back and forth. They're saying I should've gotten a pin, I'm saying I didn't. It's annoying lol

Ordered 2 iPhones Wednesday evening and have not received order confirmation or shipping emails. When I log into my account it says to verify my email but I don't receive any emails. Anyone have or had this issue?
