The GV will initially show ok but then not go through.
People have been using $5 Visible lines ($25 - $20 referral code for first month).

Yes, it will show Verizon. You need phone number, account number, port-out PIN and ZIP. Text FOUR to 611611 and the four digits should match the last four of your phone IMEI/Account number (15-digit). The ZIP code is the one you entered when you activated the phone (for a new number, or you can check it by logging into your account on a browser). Text NTP when you're ready to buy iP13/port-out to get your 4-digit PIN.

Do I have to wait a certain amount of time before I can buy through Metro again? I bought a similar deal last fall (for the iPhone 12), then just didn't renew the monthly plan.

EDIT: I guess Metro doesn't have much of a time limit between when letting your account expire and placing new orders because I just placed an order for this ip13 and it's only been about 3-4 months since I let my previous metro plan expire. Also, I placed the order just minutes after creating a visible account and porting that new visible number over to metro.

For the Apple Gift Card trade-in, do I need to wait a month, or can I trade it in as soon as I receive the phone? Thanks.
Quote from JoeySD :
Did you order 2 on same order or separate orders of 1 each?
Separate... didn't even think about multiple initially.

Quote from SmilingRoom6755 :
Was able to order 1. I used US Mobile's "light" plan to get a phone number to port out. They gave me some grief while trying to get the port out PIN but eventually relented after I threatened to file an FCC complaint. Don't be me, just do Visible instead Smilie
US Mobile is not the place to get port in numbers... Visible or Tello for non T-mo related deals.

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.
How to get Visibile for $5. Appreciate if you can provide the details

I just picked up the Samsung S25 for $98 out the door from Spectrum. I guess once it unlocks I can port the number over to Metro but I really don't need another iPhone 13 (have 2 already).
How do you unlock?

I got the error after i entered all the details and submitted on the final page. But now when i try i get this error right at the beginning.
Unfortunately, this number can't be transferred. Try another number or choose a new number to continue.
Metro port dept said they can't help without having a metro phone number. Anyone else faced this issue ?

Call the metro port department and cancel your port in request 1-800-518-7519. Then wait 3-4 days and try again. Their ordering system automatically restricts accounts from ordering too many promotion priced devices that fall off automatically after sometime. More devices you successfully order the longer the wait between being able to order again.

Go on reddit and get a referral code, to get your first month of visible for $5 ($25-$20). Then transfer the number you get on Visible over to this deal.
Do I need to order esim or physical sim from visible, I only want a number to port to metro for this deal?
