A Visible # works fine for porting in. $5 for that after using a referral code found easily on Reddit. Google Reddit Visible referral.

I hope this is helpful for others to be well informed.

After activated, the 60-day unlock countdown begins and it should unlock automatically after 60 days pass. After the first month you do not have to pay for 2nd month if you do not want to keep their service. It will still unlock after 60 days.

$200 for iphone 13 (unlock in 2 month) is the new lowest price i believe.

From comments, it does seem broken, so maybe tomorrow it will be better. I haven't been eligible since the IP 11 deal, so don't presently have any more ideas. TW has had many roll out problems in the past.
Yeah I really dont understand, but Im pretty annoyed bc so far this has been a waste of time. I got a fraud alert from my Visa, but I tried with other cards too. Nothing works Confused

Does TW ever have 256GB phones. Annoying at 128GB.

You can turn it off in the account, or add an almost empty gift card to remove the original payment card.
Total makes it difficult to change payment methods. I've been through that with them.

Do you mean I can't port out my number within 60 days for it to be unlocked? That way I have to pay for at least another month of service at total to keep the number.
Edit: see this user's post, correcting mine. Looks like you could port out your number as long as your account has not expired for non-payment (so during the first month), and the phone will still unlock after 60 days.

GV page, go to settings:
Click the three vertical dots on the left side menu, scroll down and click "Legacy Google Voice". On the Legacy page, click the gear icon in the upper right corner. Click "Settings". On the Settings page, click the Voicemail & Text tab. Enter whatever PIN you wish, twice, and save the setting. You're done
I copied that, but it's correct, Use a 4 digit pin of your choice, it's in the voicemail setting. Without doing that, it won't port.
I need help with this. On the new GV experience layout. There is no way to set a pin unless I didn't see it. I'm guessing this only works with Legacy Google Voice which is no longer accessible from what I can tell. I've already unlocked the number but have no way to set a pin. Will it still work if I port out the GV number to TW?

Edit: I think I figured it out.. you have to turn on "Call to Listen" under Voicemail settings and it will prompt you to set a pin. Hopefully this works.

Same. I wonder if this is appearing specifically to the people who bought Moto Edge 24/Galaxy A35 recently which also required ID verification.

I remember doing that deal last year on two iPhone 11. I asked my unsuspecting wife to look into my iPhone camera Sold them $200 each two months later. Basically I sold her "id" for $200. I don't think I opened the box and turned them on. Don't know if keeping them sealed still unlocks them after two months.

iPhone 13 is a great (international) travel phone (though I'd prefer its little brother, which I mainly use) - if you don't mind sharing your driver's license and headshot with Total and need an unlocked travel phone sooner. Wish they lowered the price of 12 mini.

Not worth it for requirements in my opinion. You can buy an iPhone from StraightTalk without porting in a number, with one month of cheaper service. iPhone 13 is $250 (plus service $35), iPhone 12 $200 (plus service $35). Activate, wait 60 days and it unlocks.

They will never unlock if never activated. As has been brought up in this thread already. Activate, and let the first month expire, wait until day 60 and it will unlock after that automatically. No need to pay for the additional month. BUT you must activate it to start the 60 day timer for unlocking. You also need to do this before the first month is over after they ship or that first month prepaid service clock will expire also. You've already paid for it so do it right away.

Did it on the November ST IP 13- port out before the first 30 days are up, don't need to pay any more, it'll still unlock at 60 days from activation.
Thank you. Is your phone from the ST deal already unlocked or will unlock? I used my main number when I placed the order, has the phone been linked to the number? Can I use another number to activate the phone? Some people mentioned that it is risky to port out before it is unlocked.

That means it could take potentially more than 30 days? And may have to pay for another month of service?
plan A: why not get a 15 days trail phone number from Visible (no cost) then port that number to Total Wireless so no risk on your real number.
plan B: use a referral to join Visible for $5 then port that number to then port that number to Total Wireless so no risk on your real number.
would that work?
