You dont have to do this necessarily as the verification code they send when you are purchasing the phone doesnt have to be the phone number you are porting. You can get the verification code on any number then when you port a number over you can use the number barn number for $5

Yes, but nobody sold you something for $125-200 under retailer wholesale cost.
You get what you pay for.
You can buy this phone for more without the requirements.
If they did not require this some folks would buy dozens to resell (which I have no exact issue with other than it make such a deal impossible to offer)
Decide for yourself.
It's really no different from walking into T-mobile and signing a contract to get a 'free' or subsidized iphone. They take your id there.

I tried yesterday and today and the alert message always popped up at the last step. Just wonder if anything else had the same issue and got around it?

Did you try from another browser? Internet connection like cellular ip address?

I think the answer is inside your question. How many did you buy? And have you used multiple accounts to get around the inability to purchase multiple phones from the same account? I tried to order 2 phones from my new account but the system wouldn't allow me. It kept throwing errors when I tried to add the plan to go along with the phone. I think they only allow you to order one phone for now. Once you receive the phone and activate it, you may be able to place another order.
I brought 5 for my family, 4 is showing approved and 1 cancellation. 3 accounts, 3 verifications.

I order 2 of each from different homes via remotely. The only odd part for my 5th order is I used cellular ip to order it. I can still get to the check out screen and the discount is still applied.

You can try ordering from another fresh ip address maybe it'll go through then. Don't use VPN it automatic locks you out from login or doing anything.

How do you do the 3 months? I only see I 1 month option. Then it doesn't discount the phone. This is with a port.
You did not apply the discount for the phone, it should say FREE.

I ordered it on Thursday but it has not shipped yet, moreover TW keep sending me email saying items in cart although I paid and order is showing up in my account. How fast is the phone shipping? Anyone placed a order April 10th everything - can you comment ?
Exact same thing for me. Order on the 10th and getting there is something in your cart emails.

I was able to place an order with my Visible number. Chat support said if you receive the verification code it is eligible.

I requested verification codes for my Visible lines on Friday. On Sunday, I finally received them. Maybe I will be able to port my Visible line after all. I'll try when the phone arrives.

I keep getting the alert message at the final step when I click the "Place Order" button:
"We apologize, but we cannot process your transaction at this time. Please try again later or call us at 1-866-663-3633."

Does anybody have a clue how to bypass it?

Use different email / cc. That's why I have like 500 Gmail accounts

I bought an iphone 13 each from Straight Talk online and Total Wireless in store. They have different lock screen/wallpaper images from each other, and looks different than the one shown on the current offer from TW. Does someone know if there's any difference between the phones like manufactured date, updated electronics etc.? The order of the images is Straight Talk, Total Wireless in store, and Total Wireless current deal. Thanks.

It's prob the same warehouse. All my straight talk phone comes with total wireless labels

Were they all $165 or cheaper for the second one in the account. Also, did you order 2 devices at once or one after another in the same account? Thx, not sure why people downvoted. What's wrong with folks?

All the same price $165. I did 1 device at a time per order ( several chase card has $15 cashback for total wireless ends on the 4/15?) cause i had multiple chase cards with offer. Citi cards offer has $12 cashback as well.

I highly recommend not ordering from the same IP for the 2nd account to be safe (hotspot/cell phone/remote somewhere else).

I don't have chase or citi. Do you still recommend I order two phones one at a time or can I order two in the same order? I plan to order them both on the same account.
