Also with the change in unlock policy, now 60 days of active service is mandatory for unlocking
Does this apply to all their phones? I bought a 13 a couple of months ago, yet to activate. Hoping to get away with 1 month of service.

I used a google voice number and received the activation text and was able to place an order with the phone. I'll most likely get a different phone number as this will be a work phone. Did not pay the $3 fee but had to use my Original Gmail linked account. I tried using my business email w google voice and it would not let me select a phone number,
Well, It would not save any number I choose.

Kinda wish I got the 14 plus deal for $199 a few weeks back but left it in my cart and slept on it.

OMG...well it was fun while it lasted.

Yikes, here's the new unlock policy:
For all cellphones Activated on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked automatically 60 days after paid Activation and 60 days of paid active service.

Yes, it's the new policy for all Straight Talk, Tracfone and Total Wireless locked phones. You have no choice, 60 days paid service required.

That's including the one month of service. For this deal, you had to pay for two months up front. The cheaper plan is $55/mo so it came out to $310 +tax.

Conflicting info, but generally seems this policy change is being applied retroactively.
