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.

Sorry I have been reading as fast as I can.
Are the steps:
1. Get a Visible line/number for $25
2. Use that Visible number to port over
3. Pay 1st month for iPhone 13 and it would end up costing $75
4. Total cost is $25 + $75 =$100.00??

Can someone please validate my understanding?
Wrong
$5 + $75

Last time I bought three ip12s and one Samsung a35 over 30 days. This time I used a different email account and cc, otherwise everything else was the same.Also, where does it say "you can get the ip13 two times, and that you can get up to four deals"?
Thanks for the reply about your data point/experience. When I tried this last night with a new Visible number, I used same address, different email account, and same CC. Will try your approach later.

If you go to the iPhone 13 product page on Metro's site, at least for me, toward the top is a link to a pop-up window, "Get one for FREE and bring your number." If you click the link, in the pop-up window, then click the drop-down info for bringing your number and getting the phone for free (the other drop-down is getting a new number and paying $479 for the phone). When that information is displayed, the mention of getting the free ip13 deal two times is under the numbered step 3. Then lower down in that sub-window, the small print is the paragraph that starts with "Here's how it works" and there is mention of getting four total Metro deals.

Excellent, did same but after got messages from metro that visible is not releasing number 🤔😱
You might need to call Metro and see if the port request got stuck on their end. Ask for the port-in department to get to the right person. Once you make a failed attempt to port in a number, it'll block further attempts until someone at Metro clears it. Very high chance this is a problem you had, or now have. It's also possible there is an error on the Visible side, and you might need to call them. Less likely, but it happened to me.

Metro wouldn't allow me to port-in another number from Visible. Granted, I did this last month for an iPhone 13, but I think I paid $50 more last month, so I wanted this current deal.

I even called Metro, and the sales rep tried charging two different credit cards, but it wouldn't work with Porting-In this new Visible number. His suspicion was that maybe someone else at my address has an account with Metro already. I didn't tell him that was me, last month. lol...for whatever this is worth. He was basically saying if I have another address on my credit card, it may work. I didn't do all that.
My usbank and kept getting rejected. Amex worked fine

Thanks for the data point. Were all 4 shipped to same address? Did you use same name for getting 4 devices within 30 days? Or did you had to use different person names living in same address?

When creating my Metro account do I have to use the number I'm porting from visible for my account? Will I screw it up if I use my regular cell phone number not a burner number from visible for the Metro account creation?
