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.

HiI 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.
Try using the browser back page arrow to go back one page to see if the porting page will show up.

I keep seeing the iphone 16e comment. I doubt it will be the same deal as this. The phone will be "free" since it will be monthly statement as credits for about 12 month, and you need to have an active plan during the 12 month. Not that great of a deal imo.

Have you done the metro deals before?

yeah, like but that was probably more than a year ago since I moved away from Metro. Back then I got myself a Moto Stylus 2003 and 2 Galaxy Tab A9+ from Metro deals.

I received my 3rd and 4th iphones today. I can again see "Add a line" option. I might add one more iphone 13 line soon. Goal is to trade for gift cards to apple or bestbuy, and maybe get a Macbook Air M3 or Mac Mini M4. Always been on Intel+Windows system forever for more than 2 decades, and it would be interesting with switch to Mac. Currently on Dell G15 gaming laptop (intel 12500H with 16 GB RAM, 512GB SSD and GTX 3050ti) which I have always plugged into a 32 inch monitor, and using as a desktop (never gamed on the laptop).

Like others have mentioned multiple times here, you need to click the back arrow on the order page while you are on payment page, and that will bring the port form. Looks like some glitch on Metro website causing the port page to be skipped.

no need to call. Just do switch device online.
You're not understanding something. The phone is tied to your account until you replace it, or call in to have it released, or some time later after you account is no longe valid it gets released.
For a phone recently active it's tied to the account until released. So a new buyer can't just swap it on their account until it's released through one of the above 3 methods. He asked. I answered. You made a mistake.

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.
call in and order it. they won't hassle you.

Added 2nd line for $35 last night and placed an order for iPhone 13. Longer than usual wait on port number screen.
