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.

My 3rd iphone order shipped out yesterday and I was able to activate via the status tracker page and able to add 4th iphone 13 line successfully, for another $35 (+$5 visible transfer). I should be getting the 3rd and 4th phones on Monday and Tuesday respectively. Will see if I am able to order 5th iphone on 5th line once the 4th iphone ships. Plan is to sell for gift cards to Apple (or Bestbuy if it comes up with better value) and hopefully get a iMac Mini M4 or Macbook Air M2 (that would be my first time swtiching to Apple) from Intel. Exciting!

Hi
I am trying to add a new line it's showing $35 but it's going directly to cart instead of asking me acc number and port out pin.

Ordered and received one iPhone 13.

Is it safe to sell this phone still sealed in box? Sorry, I'm still learning the ins and outs of ESIM, and concerned that the first time it powers up it may latch onto my phone/account on Metro. Wouldn't want a stranger using my line even if only for a few weeks.

third attempt at ordering just 1 phone failed again for id verification. this is so ridiculous. same home address that I've had for 28 years, same email that i've had for 20 years, same credit card that I've had for 10 years. still can't verify my ID.

Hello!
Sure, it's too much to ask for a favor. If your time permits, do you mind posting the steps to be followed to get iPhone 13 for $35? Thank you!

So got on this deal and phone was delivered
yesterday. Today I got the activate email where you
input your order#, last name, and zip to activate. After doing that the "Activate"' button is grayed out. ! called
Metro and agent said to wait until it shows delivered on
their site (since it still shows delivery on 2/24, but UPS
delivered on 2/21) and try again. Is this an issue that
anyone else has faced before and how did you resolve it?

I have the same issue. I've received the phone and UPS' tracking says delivered, but on Metro's site, the status hasn't changed to delivered yet.
I haven't had a chance to activate it yet, but I'll try it tonight.

I'm still learning about esim activations.

Does Metro ship these phones ready to join the network on first power on?

I bought one and am considering selling it instead of trading it to Apple. Not sure if I can sell it sealed in box safely, or if it will latch onto my phone number / account when it powers on?

I ordered couple of phones few minutes ago (at 22 Feb, 11pm EST) using different email / name / credit card. I'm hoping to order few more once I activate the first ones.

Did you have to change the address?

Did I mess up? Instead of adding a line I added the tablet and it doesn't let me add another phone . Do I have to wait until this tablet comes ?

What is Tracfone porting line? If you have that, could you provide it? Will need to give it to Metropcs.
800-327-2077. But, Metro has their number, and maybe a better number. I didn't give it to Metro. They contacted them on their own without getting the number from me.
