Do you remove the SIM when you send your phone to Assurant, or no?

Both times I traded in my phone, I just gave it to them with the SIM in it, in store.
I am only concerned about the online order for this trade-in Moto G Play 2023. I did used this phone to do 3 in-store trade-in successfully and each time I removed the sim card already before I got to the store and I did factory reset at the end of trade-in. process. Man those 3 phones are stuck at the first screen now.😀😀 I didn't know this lock issue until now I am sending this phone to Assurant.
Some said they did a factory reset with sim card, then finished the setup process without input any personal information by selecting Skip on any questions during the set up process. Then removed the sim card and powered off the device and sent it in. When the Assurant receives the phone, they will get into the phone without any problem, but if they do a factory reset, then...

I decided to send it to Assurant with an expired TracFone SIM card even though the instructions said removing sim card & memory card.

Online order
Was the sim activated with Tracephone? Or you did not do anything but just traded it? Thanks.

I originally activated the tracfone sim in the moto and then I transferred the service to my main tracfone line of my iPhone. I left the original sim in the moto, factory reset, and mailed in.

I decided to send this QVC Moto G Play 2023 to Assurant with an expired TracFone SIM card from Straight Talk. I did test it and it bypassed the lock screen or first screen with this SIM card after the factory reset.

Can anyone confirm you won't have to pay tax on full amount during online trade in, if you didn't have to in-store?

If you're willing to drive further, the Simi Valley location seemed to have everything in stock. They told me they still had stock of all the base models on the 19th and 20th. They don't seem to really allow the S25 to S25+ or Ultra trade in though because it seems like the manager is always there when I went and kept pushing the 50 dollar restocking fee + not getting the 700 dollar promotion.
I also went to the Simi Valley location and the manager you mentioned is a short older woman, right? I also failed with the S25 -> S25+. The agent told me that they are processing the first trade-in so I should come in next week or do it online.

Nope. For online, always taxes on full amount on the phone's initial purchase.

Whether you get the additional tax + TIV back when your trade-in processes is dependent on your state tax law. If you pay taxes only on the after promo price in-store, you should get the taxes back.

Great, I reset it with sim and entered past setup screen without setting up any accounts, then removed sim, and left it like that. But if they reset, it'll be an issue. Now I'm worried I won't get trade-in. Any success stories of online trade-in of moto g play without sim

i jsut dropped off my trade in @ UPS

I printed the barcode from the USPS label from option 2 online trading.
Place it with the phone.
Video recorded the complete phone reset process and condition.
Then took it to UPS, ask that guy to scan the QR Code and it did it.
He also allowed me to record the packing process and also gave me a copy of the label and Receipt of dropping of the parcel.


It saws the expected delivery dat is Monday 24 by 12 PM

It's not dependent on the store. It's based on your state tax laws.

Fyi, These tradein values seem to be going down. I just upgraded from 25 to 25 plus. I remember seeing the 25 trade in value at 1123 some change a few days back. Today it was 1088 when i did it at store.

Did you do the 1st trade in in store for s25? How long did you wait to do 2nd trade in for s25+?
