Quote from AznAnt :
I read that on a previous comment. Don't know to quote it so here's a copy and paste.

"Looks like 60 day unlock for Verizon but 12 month for atnt and T-Mobile if you read the fine print? Please correct me if I am mistaken.

TracFone will provide an unlocking code or codes to customers who request unlocking, provided the cellphones meet the following conditions:

The cellphone must be in working condition.
The cellphone has not been reported stolen or lost, and there are no indicators of fraud.
The cellphone was Activated.
For cellphones Activated with TracFone prior to November 23, 2021 on any carrier network, the cellphone must have been active with TracFone Service for no fewer than twelve (12) months.
For cellphones Activated with TracFone on the T-Mobile or AT&T networks on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone must have been active with TracFone Service for no fewer than twelve (12) months.
For cellphones Activated with new service on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, at least sixty (60) days must have elapsed since the cellphone was activated. For any cellphones, notification of the phone's unlock eligibility will be sent via SMS along with a link to the website where the unlock process can be accessed."
Most don't know-TF inclusive stopped activating phones on any network except Verizon after july 2023. If you were on another network before then, they are required to maintain those through December 2024. At some point, all customers on a network not Verizon will ne migrated.

Can you order more than one using the same address/phone number? I've had two orders apparently no go through and don't show as pending on different credit cards

No you don't. I have done it multiple times with the phone sealed. It shows unlocked after 60 days on sickw.com
If they are sending it overseas, I would be worried about it unlocking. I'm always leaning on the side of caution as I wouldn't want a brick that's locked to straight talk.

Quote from Crazy8 :
I have unlocked several Tracfone iPhones activated with only the IMEI and a 30-day plan (required with the phone purchase or service PIN purchased elsewhere), without opening the box. The phones got unlocked 60 days after activation just fine. Simply check the status on sickw.com. The phones can be gifted or sold as sealed and unlocked, when the status shows 'unlocked'. It doesn't matter where the phones are located when you open the box to set up. You can setup without a SIM or from other carrier. In the settings after setup, it will show 'no sim restrictions'. ST and TF have the same unlock policies. Don't rebrand or try to activate with service transfer from an existing line/service (as unlock requires plan purchase).
This is exactly why you SHOULD take it out of the box and activate it with the straight talk plan and take to out of the box. Most people buying unlocked phones are transferring their existing line onto it... For it to actually unlock it needs a new line activation. Call me crazy but I'm not risking it. Nobody cares if the box has been opened its a 3+ year old model phone.

You clearly don't understand how it works. The unlock happens on the apple side. If it shows unlocked on sickw, it's unlocked on apple's servers, therefore fully unlocked.

I get that completely, but I've heard horror stories of people trying to get their phones to activate and not successfully working because they shipped the phone overseas before it ever received an activation signal.

So most people buy these then sit on them for 60 days then activate on carrier of choice ? Or are people jumping around carriers? If I save $100 but then have to pay 1-2 months on this carrier I'm not saving that much. What am I missing

After 60 days it will unlock to any carrier. Deal already comes with the 30 day plan. You just need to pay for that month and don't need to pay for 2nd month. Phone will automatically unlocked on day 60.
Should I log in or should i use guest checkout?

I just placed 2nd order and noticed that silver plan is $30 instead of $45 if you add a new line in the existing account.

Did you not read what I said at the end of my reply? The phones will be unlocked after 60 days if activated correctly, and there is absolutely no need to take the phone out of the box to activate or test. Simply use the phone IMEI to activate with a purchased service plan (required in this deal) will trigger the unlock. By the way, this is a locked phone initially. Most people buy unlocked phones to use with any service providers, not to transferring existing lines (no good for unlock in this deal).

Nope, just a checkbox to indicate that you are 16 years old or older.

You have to activate the phone, but you do not have to use the phone for it to be unlocked. However, if you are using the phone you can text 'unlock' to 611611 to verify the phones unlock date.
Not sure why you replied to my post… isn't that what I said (activate with IMEI but no need to unseal the box)?

can someone share their shipping experience who recently ordered the phone? Should we expect it to be delivered in 2-3 days after order as the website says?
