I think the various Metro iPhone deals should be merged because a lot of the questions are being asked in the different threads and they're mostly relevant to all of them.


iPhone 12, 64gb, "Free" with port in and plan of $75 = $75

iPhone 13, 128gb, $49.99 with port in and plan of $75 = $125

iPhone 14, 128gb, $99.99 with port in and plan of $75 = $175


If you have a Visible line you can use a referral to get $20 off the $25 plan = $5 for the line and then you can port that into Metro.

Additional lines on Metro are $35 so add that to the cost of the phone above for the cost of additional lines. So additional iPhone 12 would be $35.

Various experiences on the success of adding lines to your Metro account, though. Some go through hell just trying to add one. Others can add three or four more.

Unlock does supposedly take a year now, and I don't think anyone can confirm yet that it will actually unlock if you get the plan/phone for the first month and then let your plan/account just die (because you don't set up auto-bill to renew after the first month unless you really want to) - but I don't think there's any reason to suspect it won't unlock.

That's the crux of it. Again, there are already a few posts existing, especially for the iPhone 12 deal, so your questions have been likely already been answered if you want to search those threads.

If anyone cares, there is not much difference in Geekbench scores

I'd just get the iPhone 13 for $125 (similar deal from Metro as well). The phones are nearly identical, with the same processor.

Trade in values are also very similar, with Apple offering $50 more for this (and it costing $50 more)

Yes. activation requires downloading the visible app onto the device.
Once you activate you will be able to request the port out info in the app or in your account menu on desktop (requires receiving one time code on new line)
thank you for the info....i thought i was bugging out. I'll wait til the sim comes , hopefully the deal will still be alive

How do you exactly get a Visible number to port out? Do you need to sign up for plan or just get a number for $5 to port?

Doesn't seem to like a visible number. I got an account today and was able to get to identity verification but couldn't get verified. After that , the number seems to not work when I start the process again. Metro store people are no help. Anyone got any idea what could be the issue?

Tried to order on my desktop and ran into an issue but not sure if it's because I used my amex virtual card #. I then removed it from the cart on my desktop and tried it on my phone. This time I used my home address, same shipping and billing address and used my real amex card and it went through. The order has signature verification which is good for me because I won't be home the day of delivery.

Yes, it's always possible to use a locked T-Mobile phone on Metro (barring some financed phones), but going the other way (a locked Metro phone, wanting to use on T-Mobile) is not possible.
With Samsung phones, it's interchangeable in either direction. Metro locked phone works with T-mobile network and vice versa. Not sure about other brands

You have to call Metro porting dept and tell them to release the number and you'll be able to buy again.

I can't tell you why it failed - Metro has a number of measures in place to "prevent fraud". But you can't try again immediately with the same number. Usually the port-in process will cancel automatically in a few hours. If not, call this number 8005187519. They can cancel it manually.

I tried to get another Visible number from the chat bot, and also got another port number from Visible but both orders failed on the last page. It (Metro) does not asked the three personal to finalized the order, but it went back as an empty cart.

I tried my iPhone/Sarafi/no VPN and my Samsung Galaxy/Chrome/no VPN.

No dice.
