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.

Quote from hvtran4 :
nope, error means the order didn't go thru and now your ported number is on hold (meaning it can't be use for porting to Metro until you call and request them to cancel the port). I have to do this many times (I think Metro flagged my address used) Smilie
My order went through and I got the order number but never received the confirmation email. Looked up the order status with my order number and it says cancel. I called the porting department and they've canceled the port, but asked me to wait a few hours and place an order via phone instead. I'm hesitant to do that because it might incur an activation fee. I also wonder if placing an order with a virtual credit card number caused my order to be canceled. I guess I'll pay with my actual card this time as autopay doesn't seem to be enabled by default, but I'm not sure.

Are you on t-mobile postpaid? Which plan? Why aren't you trading in your iPhone 13 through Apple but tmo financed to get the iPhone 16 for free?
Never had anything financed here in the States. We're on some prepaid plan since 2021, not sure which one. Pay $150+ for 4 lines unlimited. Would appreciate if you could give more info on this subject .

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 did you do that. Can you post a link

What word?
Multiple reports of Moto Edge phones purchased after 5/8/24 unlocking after 6 months despite policy change. However I've not seen any reports of iPhones unlocking early.

Question if I want to use this for trade in value. After I get it in my hands, what's the soonest I can use it to trade in at t mobile/t mobile/atnt/which else big name carrier? And do I have to cancel the $75 month plan first?

Ideally i would like to buy it with a virtual credit card, then i would just cancel the card don't have to bother canceling the plan at all once im "in the clear"

How does the best buy trade in work? Don't you have to sign up for AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile plan there to get the gift card?

I have been waiting online for half hour still cannot get through to the CS. I am shocked that so many new people jumping into this deal because a $50 change. The deal has been sitting there for like a month and they don't move. With $50 drops they are all in. Is $50 making such a big difference? Why not just order it earlier so you can get more phones which will make up that $50 loss.
This is Slickdeals. People will jump on a deal for a $1 discount.

For some reason when I'm logged into my SD account I can't see any comment newer than two hours, including my own replies to other comments, so I was thinking my reply didn't go through but then I signed out and looked at the comments and I can see all the latest comments from the past two hours, I'm not sure what's going on, I've never seen that before
Me too

You need a spectrum account. Go to the store or online and trade in a phone to get the deal.
