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.

To sell this phone to someone else, we just need to make sure autopay is off right? The line/account will just expire?

I believe you also need to switch it out from your account to another device by entering a new phone IMEI.

option 1: swap device
option 2: port out to cancel line and acct
option 3: call to cancel (expect for a lecture)

As suggested I am still not able to order, Another question - If I take out the sim from the tab while the line is still active, will it work on wifi? because during initial setup it asked for sim to be inserted so wondering if it will work.
Finally I had to call metro and an agent was able to place an order for the 2nd tab and it went through with exactly he same info as the first one.

This is only for selling to someone else correct? Not if just trading in the device.

yes you dont need to do anything for trade in. Those options are for the new owner can activate the phone. If phone still link to your acct. It can not be activated.

Did IPhone 13 deal on Visible last Dec; If do this one as well, will that jeopardize my one year plan with it ? Or I need to use different email to create an new account? Thanks

Yes, it will!!! If Visible finds out you used the same account on an iPhone from another carrier, they will terminate your service, and you will be banned indefinitely from having service with them!
Pfftt, C'Mon, don't be silly!

Is it required to either cancel the line or transfer it to another phone before trade in? I deleted eSIM and thinking to trade in the device. Am I missing something ?

What's the pitfalls of doing this in store? The phone is free now, and they are just setting up the account and plan right? What can they try to tag on that would be a problem later?

I called in store and confirmed that in store purchases need to pay the tax on original phone price
