I signed up for a new Visible line. When I entered it into Metro's number-checking it says it's a Verizon line and qualifies for the promo, but after I add the iphone 13 and the $75/month line to cart, it shows the full amount is due and no discount. Any ideas why? Also, when I use this same number to buy the iPhone 14, it shows $150 discount; this is still not the full discount amount, but at least it applied a discount. So for the same number from Visible, Metro won't apply the discount to the iphone 13, but will apply a partial discount toward the iPhone 14. What gives?

with the limited number of times you can do this before they block your card, might as well get the 14 for $100 more

I believe the 7 days is good for u to use not to the provider. For deals, I never used my real number. you shouldn't either. You can get a disposable number for few bucks.

Signed up for Visible, when it assigns you the number but before you pay you can test the number on the Metro add to cart screen to make sure it'll work for the full discount. Mine did.

Got Visible for $5, requested port in the app and it arrived within 5 seconds, then ported to Metro and bought the 13. Yay team.

Only thing is I can't login to Metro yet to turn off autopay (using the ported # and Metro PIN). I assume I need to wait for the iphone 13 to arrive for that to work.

yes you need the iPhone to receive the verification code in order to log in.

Pity the people who use their real number for porting to Metro. I used a disposable Tracfone number to port, TF sent a text to my phone saying the line is being transferred. A bit later, TF service gets cut, the TF online account no longer shows any active lines. Metro website says "Oops something went wrong" and port is stuck. Called Metro on another line (which you won't have if you were using your real number) and they said wait a day and try again. If you're using your real number, prepare to be without service for a while if the port fails.

Metro autopay setting should not be automatically set to ON with this deal. You can verify it to be safe though, once your 1st phone on the new account is activated later. That will be when you can access your account.

If you don't end up porting for any reason from Visible, they do have autopay on by default and you need to turn it off if you decide to let that line die. It can be disabled in your account profile tab.I always do as a matter of good housekeeping, just in case Metro gives me too many headaches to port it in.

Any good trade in deal we can utilize this phone?
Apple has credit of $235 or $250 if you purchase a phone. We did this last time with the iPhone 12 deal. This one is much better, tempted to give it another go. But be warned there's a limit per address. I was able to reliably get 3 phones per address.

Same here I used TF to port in, got error message, called at noon, they told me they will remove the "port hold" please go back and purchased at again in 4 hours. At 6pm I purchased again it gave me this message "Unfortunately, this number can't be transferred. Try another number or choose a new number to continue" I called Metro, they told me to wait for another 24 hours starting now.... crazy, madness.
