Wonder if it's worth holding out to see what the upcoming SE4 brings and at what price point.

FALSE INFORMATION!
Many of us have unlocked ST/TW/TF models at 60 days with only the original 30 days of paid service.
Just read any of the TF/TW/ST threads on SD in the past 3 years, you'll find plenty of actual users confirming unlock procedure.

Do your research. CS is very poorly trained & often just reads from a manual or script, they know less than most users.

FYI - my 13 unlocked just now, a day earlier than txt message said - with only the original purchased 30 day plan.

NOTE: unlock policy has changed as of 4/1/25 and now requires 60 days of paid service (30 days no longer works).

Also , not all stores do in-store activation. So you have to find out store , who have OSL team member that can help you with activation. So its YMMV

I remember that Straight Talk does not offer roaming for Mexico or any other country.

Verizon has owned ST/TW/TF for over 3 yrs, phones will activate on VZ.

maybe it works, but the company has reasons to lock your phones until you at least keep your phone plan alive for over 2 months.

It is sim locked. There is no way to unlock it with a third party. You should have read the post before sending it overseas. Now you are beat.

Only you with this issue. You need patience to wait for the shipping confirmation.

Is this Walmart in-store only deal or I can also purchase from Straight Talk website? Title is kind of confusing. Thanks.

[IMG]https://slickdeals.net/images/misc/backlink.gif[/IMG]"They will not unlock your phone if you don't pay for the second month. Or You need to pay the unlocking fee. I chatted with the agent of straight talk."


Not been my experience and most of the folks here.
I'll add another vote for iPhone 13 will automatically unlock 60 days after activation: Buy iPhone Walmart or straighttalk.com, activate for 30 days with a Straighttalk prepaid plan $35 or $45. Put it away or use it for 30 days you already paid for. Do not auto renew after 30 days. Do not renew after 30 days. Although Straighttalk will remind you before the next (upcoming) 30 days (when your activated original 30 days are almost up. Again, do not auto renew. Do not renew.
Put the iPhone aside and patiently wait the next 30 days (making a total of 60 days from activation date) and the iPhone is AUTOMATICALLY unlocked to allow use with a non-Straightalk carrier/provider.
I did this Black Friday 2023 (Walmart, iPhone SE3) AND Black Friday 2024 (straighttalk.com, iPhone 13) for a total of 4 iPhones. ALL UNLOCKED IN 60 days along with most everyone in this discussion. Very slick.
You can check on your unlock status by texting UNLOCK to 611611 during the 30 days active service.
You can get some CB based on your CC or whatever is out there (has been discussed here)

Quote from TealThread549 :
I understand you. I got the 13 on a previous SD. I waited for the 2mo because I wanted to be sure. I planned to cancel a few days before end of second month. Lucky me they charged my auto pay early. It was a week or more early and they WOULD NOT refund for the 3rd month, it is in their fine print no refunds or pro rate the month if you cancel. I am hesitant to go through this again. If a person can get one month and cancel and it works I'd try that but not 3mo again.
Why not buy a $30 refill card from walmart and use that. Not autopay?
