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 think I messed something up. Where do you see the option to change the phone number? I ordered a sim card (where I think I messed up) and I can't activate my account.
After you activate your line, you can request that Visible change the number through the chat function online (probably also through the app, but I haven't tried that). I think you have to wait for the SIM card to arrive, since it sounds like you ordered a physical SIM card, before you activate it. I tried this once with Visible, and it took several days to arrive.

I placed an order Friday night and was notified of shipping on Saturday, but UPS hasn't received the package yet. Anyone else with similar experience? Thanks!
My experience from several months ago is that Metro's (web site) tracking may be updated hours later. If you have the UPS tracking number, try the UPS site.

Appreciate the response. Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. I guess I'll have to create a new account and sign up with an eSim device.

Did you have to pay $75 for the first phone on each of three accounts? Did you order subsequent phones on your accounts (since at the time that cost just another $35 to add a line and get another iPhone 12 when there was an existing $75 plan in the account).

Yeah. That stinks. You could make Visible account #2 and get your second phone number...order Metro phone #1...and then a few days from now when you get your Metro phone, activate the account...as long as there is still phone (theoretically could be iPhone 12 or 13) stock, you could consider adding a second line to Metro for $35 (if they still do that...they did last fall) using Visible account #1 because hopefully the SIM would have arrived by then.

I will mention that I tried a Metro order a few days ago (but it was with an active Visible line) and got an error message that I couldn't transfer (but presume this was because in October I ordered phones with Metro and I used the same CC as before). I waited >24 hours, and the number was released from whatever limbo it was in after the failed order, and I tried Metro with a different CC than I had tried before, and it worked.

How did you place more than one order? Don't you need to receive the first phone, activate it and then add lines to the account?
If you did multiple accounts - did you use different names, addresses etc? Thanks.

I just ordered 3 in a row. I didn't even create an account. I didn't bother with adding lines to the accounts, just ordered 3 for $75 ea.

Thanks. The system does ask you for your name, email and shipping address. Did you use the same email for each of the orders? Is there any information you changed for each of the 3 orders?

Is it normal to not be able to log in to your account? Got a confirmation for the order but I can't log into my metro account to order another
