Port Info Needed:
Most can be found here
https://www.totalwirele

PIN: Text NTP to 611611 to generate your PIN.

At the Porting part.
1. Enter the port info.
2. Metro contacts Total Wireless. (See picture 1)
3. Metro throws an error even if you entered everything correctly. (See picture 2)
4. The error is because Total Wireless is contacting the line owner to warn them about the port. (See picture 3)
5. Click on Correct errors.
6. Re-enter everything again and make sure everything is correct.
7. Metro throws another error. The same one as seen in Picture 2.
8. This is a bug on Metro site.
9. Click on the X at the top right to close that error message.
10. Metro proceeds to completing the order.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Once you clicked on submitting the order to Metro, your Total/ST/Tracfone line is immediately inactivated on their respective site, not allowing you to port that line any further even if Metro denied your order asking you to contact them or go to their store for completing the order. In order words, you cannot reverse the porting at Total/ST/Tracfone. I spent 2 hours with Total and it was going nowhere.

Not for everyone, but I used a second new line to get a moto g stylus 2024 for $55 with a new number. No porting involved. Didn't want to deal with visible or other companies to get a number to port and I have the 2022 model and which I like. Will use this for a wifi device until unlock. FYI, spectrum allows an unlocked moto g stylus for the bring your own device deal. Other thread says the 2024 metro moto g stylus will work with a t-mobile sim out of the box which would be a bonus for me. Also, despite the one year unlock policy, some phones are still unlocking in six months.
Good luck to all and thanks for the info!

It seems Metro is doing a lot of patch-up work to deter multiple orders continuously. I wouldn't be surprised if some first-time orders can't go through.
I counted my "port-out request" emails from Visible:
1st order: 2 requests (not sure why two, they were just a few minutes apart. So I might have entered incorrect info first time)
2nd order: 4 requests
3rd order: 6 requests (it was cancelled AFTER the order went through. Thankfully it was still fulfilled)
4th attempt: 9 requests so far without luck. I plan to do it once every day/other day until the due date
Otherwise you'll need to wait for physical Visible sim to come in the mail in order to finish activation and get port out info

Try both IMEIs (IMEI1 and IMEI2) -- if your IMEI doesn't show up as eSIM then maybe your phone model is not eSIM compatible for their service
You can try checking VZ website as well:

If I am trading in and do not want to keep it and unlock, can I simply trade it in and after wards close the entire account? Or do I need to port the number activate the first month of service on this phone as well?
