"If Subscriber wishes to use their Device with the service of another mobile operator or Subscriber wishes to exchange their Mobile Service between two Spectrum-supported Devices, upon request, Spectrum will provide reasonable assistance to unlock the Device or to exchange their Mobile Service between the two Spectrum-supported Devices, provided that Subscriber meets certain criteria, including but not limited to: (a) Subscriber has paid for each Device in full; (b) the device has been active for more than sixty (60) days; (c) the Subscriber's account is in good standing (i.e., it has no past due amount or unpaid balance owed to Spectrum); and (d) none of the Devices have been reported lost or stolen.
I cant tell if the terms are actually saying that this is forbidden because the A criteria clearly says EACH device, but the B criteria that matters in this case refers to "the device" and not each device.

Please read your point (a). If your device is in full it needs to be unlocked.
A.) Each device is paid off (checkmark)
B.) The device has been active for more then 60 days ???
C.) The account must be in good standing. (checkmark)
D.) None of the devices have been reported lost or stolen (checkmark)
I am questioning the fact that we will have criteria B satisfied. It depends which device they are referring to, the device that just got unlocked and we are trying to move of the line or the device that we are trying to move onto the line in order to get it to unlock. Obviously if its the device that we are trying to move onto the line then we have not satisfied the criteria for B because the whole reason we are trying to move the device onto the line is to get it to 60 days, correct?
Or am i just thinking about it incorrectly? Does it not matter because we are supposed to wait until 60 days from activation for the device we are trying to switch on the line to get unlocked.
Edit: Just trying to get a grasp on this before i cancel 7 of my 8 lines lol. Also what is the best way to cancel the lines, port out number or just cancel one or two at a time and call in. Thanks
When I look at best buy, apple, oneplus, etc. you can't select s25 to trade in, only s24.

It is easy to get unlocked as long as the device is 100% paid off. it is a safety feature of Verizone that is in place. So they cannot provide you with the unlock.

I do have a free line that has another s25+ on there with the option to "switch devices", I am thinking of going through that route but if you have had success with the physical sim I think it might be a better choice so that I can also put it back into the 1st s25+ that was activated on that line.
Let us know how it goes if you try it
When I look at best buy, apple, oneplus, etc. you can't select s25 to trade in, only s24.
You can use the numbers to verify Google voice numbers. Also to self refer for Doordash etc.
The phones, once unlocked, can be resold easily. Even if not unlocked, Best Buy should take them shortly
Another option is to trade them in for yet another phone should Spectrum come along with a really good offer. Could net you some cash even
I can't remember how I switched it but shouldnt matter... i remember getting one unlocked , hang up switched sim and called back to unlock other
