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.

So can we get on the $20 Samsung tablet after activating the line? And for that one we just pay the first month tablet service and not renew and get to keep tablet for only $20?

They are on to us. Next iPhone promotion requires 1 year of service credits:
Starting Friday, February 28th, Metro by T-Mobile customers who bring their phone number to Metro get iPhone 16e on Us when they join Metro Flex Up or Metro Flex Plus and have accumulated 12 months of service credits. As T-Mobile notes, that's a savings of $599.99.

This is for the new iPhone, are you slow?

Someone said the terms of deal change tomorrow requiring 12 months of service; so today is the last day to order if I'm going to cancel service right away? I'm porting out of Xfinity mobile to get this deal and then porting back into Xfinity mobile the next day and I will get the Xfinity mobile $100 bring your own device credit. Does anyone will know will I lose all my Xfinity mobile voicemails?

No that person is completely wrong

Sorry, we are currently experiencing technical issues. Please try again.

I was able to get to the page, but am having difficulty with the ID verification questions because the questions are actually incorrect.

metro is undergoing technical issues it seems. And one of agent who helped me told they are changing the policy for free phones very soon this week. However he didn't mention what it is.
I just tried adding a line online and they said I had to call to finish the transaction. My port-in number got eaten and when I tried to put in the order again, the page said "Sorry, you are not eligible to add a new line." Not sure what's going on.

I just tried adding a second line online with a Visible number. The number was accepted, it showed as a second line cost would be $35. I had to enter my account/port-out PIN/ZIP code, then my payment/shipping info, and then got to the final screen where you just look over the info and agree to the terms and pay, then it gives the error:

Please contact us to complete your order.
Your security is important to us. Unfortunately can't complete your order online. Our award-winning Mobile Experts are ready to assist you. Please call us or visit a store to continue.


Anyone else get this error at this point in the process? I posted a short time ago, I was able to get security questions after this step, but they were bogus questions and after answering them truthfully I was told that the answers were wrong.

So I did call Metro, and the guy said at first that I could only get one iPhone 13, and so I pointed out the part of the offer that says we can get two phones. Then he said that I had to make a second, totally separate account to get the second. So I called him out because that wouldn't make sense (because others on SD are getting the second line for $35 on the same account). And THEN he said that I had to make a new account on the phone with him, and I told him that I know that not to be true because my current account I created online last weekend.

I mean, all this to save $40 for the second line, and that would be only if I could even order a second phone with a second account.

Anyone else getting stuck at the same point as me?

So you were trying to order a second line and you already have one iPhone 13 in your account?
