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.

I can finally ditch my iPhone 11 lol. FYI: This is the last iPhone with a removable SIM in the US. iPhone 14 and later are ESIM only in the US.
I was able to activate with a sim on iPhone 16 from T-Mobile, and then it was converted into a sim

Quote from arbitrager :
when trading in to a phone, it has higher trade in value, like $235 vs $250 in this example hence why interested if can trade in two 13's for $250 each towards the 16
No. Only one trade-in per phone purchase is allowed. You need to trade in additional phones for gift cards for the reduced rate.

Please stop commenting on things you know nothing about. You don't need more than 1 month of service. Is reading the thread so rough?
Buddy I literally contacted support and read the terms, you must complete 3 months of service on the flex plus plan. Also been told the phones do not unlock for 6-12 months based on FCC laws. That's not cheap when I can just pay US mobile $25/m, Cricket wireless is the same shit, they lock the "29.99 iphone 13" until you pay for 6 months of service on cricket and cricket is wildly expensive too.

Quote from timaishu :
I'm commenting again because I'm not sure if it went through. When creating my Metro account will I mess anything up if I use my regular phone number and not the burner number from visible? Or shall I use the burner visible number I'm porting in on the Metro account during the account creation? Or does it not matter what number I put in there. My concern is whether they're going to try to send a text verification which obviously it won't receive.
You use the port in visible number when ordering your phone where it asks for the number you wish to bring. You do not create a metro account, per se.

The order creates your account and is tied to that phone number once the phone is activated. You activate once you get the phone. You cannot log in without having activated the phone because to log in you need the phone to receive the 2FA code.

Did anyone get an error - " Number cannot be transferred at this time..number transfer failed". The system first got stuck on the number transfer screen, it said it was pending and then it eventually failed. I was trying to port from Total Wireless to Metro. I have verified that the Account number and PIN are all correct.
Happened to me. I redid the order again immediately and it went through the 2nd time.

All these deals are so crap. They lock you on the network for 6-12 months of service. If you don't complete it, the phone will be locked to their network forever.
I've got 3 Metro phones from these "crap deals" they all unlocked after the time period with only 1 month of service. I had the moto g stylus 2022 swapped to Verizon the 2nd month with no trouble. Moto g stylus 2023 was swapped to TextNow the 2nd month as well. I've had 100% success with these great deals over 2 years.

Expired. This must be an all time record for shortest time iPhone deal was available before being completed sold out. A million people from Slickdeals must have all gotten 4 phones each.
