Deal Details
The deal in December I missed due to holiday shopping for the family. On the straight talk site currently the iPhone 13 new is coming up as 249 when you add any plan. When adding the phone it pops up promo for existing customers but it allowed me to go through checkout as guest or logged in to my account. Automatically unlocks 60 days after activation

It comes with service for 30 days. No need to pay for service after that.
I don't think it comes with service

It ain't gonna be $250. This is still a great deal. Terrible advice from you

So, I am on the Tracfone annual 1500/1500 plan using an older Motorola phone which I am having some problems with. Could I buy this iPhone 13 and dump the Motorola and use the remaining minutes etc with my Tracfone number. Then, when my year is up (April) the iPhone would be unlocked? thanks

Check Chase offers as I have 25% offer up to $15 back. One of the cb sites has 12% and is running a YMmV $2.50 back offer through 1/9.

Edit: Visited the website and activated Capital 1 shopping extension and then closed the tab. 30 minutes or so later I got an email from Cap1 Shopping offering 30% in rewards, up to $250. So $75 in cap1 shopping rewards and $15cb from Chase is YMMV but hopefully available for some.

I have two ip13 and idk what apple did this time with their updates but they literally are unusable. Take that as you wish. I'm starting to think ios18 was just too much.

-Random restarts
-gets hot
-ui freezes

🧂
Have 4 of these, no problems after updates, reset the phone or take it to an apple store.

I want to confirm the 60 day unlock, from the ST/Tracfone unlock page:
  • For all cellphones Activated with TracFone prior to November 23, 2021 on any carrier network, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked upon customer request after twelve (12) months of active TracFone service.
  • For all cellphones Activated with TracFone on the T-Mobile or AT&T networks on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked upon customer request after twelve (12) months of active TracFone service.
  • For all cellphones Activated with TracFone service on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked automatically, sixty (60) days after Activation.
Are all iPhones via ST activated via Verizon? I am considering the ip14 for $400 and want to ensure I activate/do this all the right way so I can switch to my main carrier 60 days post activation.

EDIT: Found this comment in the BF deal thread, you need to go out of your way to not have it activated on Verizon: https://slickdeals.net/f/17882043-straight-talk-128gb-apple-iphone-13-smartphone-30-days-prepaid-service-from-244-free-shipping?p=173803761#post173803761

Probably a dumb question but I recently bought my son one of the year long Tracfone plans that came with a crappy Motorola. If I don't want to unlock and just want to get this for him to use with his existing service, can I just pop the existing Tracfone Sim into this?

It due out by may

Might be better value but it's still likely double the cost of this phone. For most folks the day to day use won't feel any different.

Showed dead for me too. Then I disabled my VPN and the deal was live.
