I took advantage of this deal last time. After activating the phone, I transferred the eSIM to my iPhone 15. Now, 60 days later, Visible is refusing to unlock the phone, claiming that the service must stay active on the iPhone 13 for the full 60 days before unlocking. Really disappointed.
I don't see where I am wrong?
Will unlock automatically after 2 months of paid service

in my case, visible told me somehow my sim was not activated fully until i removed/reinserted recently to check unlock after 60 days (service was activated in app on device with sim inserted 60+ days prior). i guess my bad, maybe i didnt fully check if sim had activated on day 1 by making test call/text. so i have to wait another 60 days for unlock. until then i am not chancing moving visible sim to my main device (as a secondary number).

On the other hand, I removed the SIM card after activation and put it in my daily driver (similar to what I do with Total wireless deals) but the phone did not unlock automatically. Contacted customer support, and they said the phone has to be active on Visible for the entire time, and the 60 days clock restarts every time the sim is replaced. Since I have been using the Visible line on a different phone, the phone isn't eligible for unlock. Hope this helps others.
after checking phone was not showing unlocked on day 61, i tried putting another sim briefly to trigger unlock, didnt unlock, so put visible sim back in. now visible claims my sim only activated then and now i have to wait another 60 days. i call BS (my service has been active since day i received phone but i never made test call/text) but its possible it wasnt exactly 60 days completed to the hour when i replaced sim briefly and that reset my time. this time i am not gonna take sim out until i confirm with them on chat the unlock is complete.

Seems the phone needs to be in service for 60 days for unlock? Anyone know if those 60 days must be spent with the sim that was purchased during the original transaction? Or can someone else use the phone on their visible sim and expect it to still unlock after 60 days?

13 is the last iPhone has physical SIM slot.

In the US which is stupid and a cost cutting measure.

iPhones sold outside the US still have physical SIM

I mean I have metro but I worry about the signal sometimes and I got android s24 ultra which is kinda unorganized.

But I wonder if visible is really worth it, Is the signal better? I don't use much data.
!5 day free trial with e-sim compatible phone. No CC required EZ, just download the app. Depends on your area. Verizon is the only carrier that works well in this area. Importantly wi-fi calling works w/o a cell signal. Was even able to activate service on wi-fi only no cell signal which can't be done on the others.

I'm already a visible customer - can I port the number to another service and then transfer back to visible the following day to be able to take benefit of the deal?

Is this a better deal (on Visible)? -
[coming soon] iPhone 16e on us
Purchase iPhone 16e (128 GB) on the Visible+ plan, and we'll give you $25/mo in service credits for 24 months. That's $600 in savings.
I was really looking forward to the 16e, but after the official announcement (especially price), I think it's going to be one of the worst products Apple has ever released based on price. They really think Apple Intelligence is going to persuade millions of people to choose it while sacrificing so much - I don't. Over time, AI models will require less resources, so having a super powerful CPU is not as important as Apple wants you to believe. Having a single camera lens, no Magsafe, no UWB, and being a guinea pig for their own modem makes it a very confusing product, especially at $600.

However, Apple being Apple could easily end updates for the 13 next year to pressure customers into upgrading.

I attempted this promotion in November and my code never went through so I was charged the full price of the phone. After two weeks of daily calls to visible, I eventually got a refund and never ported. I am tempted again, especially with cash back from Chase and Al CapOne ($30 and $28), it's a better deal. But after hearing horror stories of them losing your number during port, I'm not sure if it's worth the gamble for a phone that could be obsolete next year.
