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

I tried to port a GV number to them last month and it never worked. Total W needed a zip code to process it. No zip code I used worked (tried mine, GV headquarters, random ones affiliated with area code and GV ). After many calls and countless zip codes tries, I ended up using a free TextNow number with no problem.

I just created a Google Voice number and when I punch in the Google Voice number on total Wireless to Port from I get we couldn't validate your number at this moment.
EDIT
Tried again 30 minutes later and port number worked but device discount didn't apply in my shopping cart as this was my fifth phone I guess you only get discounted equipment for four phones per account

You have ordered and received 4 free phones from the same account? I thought 2 free phones maximum per account. Last time I ordered more than 2 free phones, TW asked UPS to return the package before delivery. Others also said they had their order cancelled before shipping.

I have one free A35 in my possession, I have two $50 razors on route supposed to be delivered tomorrow, and I just placed a fourth order for a free iPhone 13. Perhaps restriction was two limit of any particular phone type. I never tried ordering more than two of any particular phone

I think it's because the Razrs are not free they let you order them from the same account.

Just a heads up for anyone actually planning on using the service... apparently Disney+ is NOT included with the 3-month prepaid service according to chat support. I will try to chase it down with phone support, but that's the first-pass response I got from chat support.

As for shipping time, I ordered on 04/10, shipped on 04/15, and received 04/16 (did not pay extra for 1-day shipping).
Please update us, I'm very interested in your result. I got a text about the Disney plus sent to my new A35 device a few days after activating it , but the link in the text didn't work and I'd much rather have the Disney plus if it comes with my iPhone on the route since that comes with 3 months of Disney versus just one month of Disney with my A35. No sign of Disney Plus on the total Wireless website on the my extras tab either

I'm assuming Visible numbers won't work for port in since it's a Verizon owned brand?

Visible worked for me.

Once I receive the device and turn it on, do i actually need to complete the port in via TW to start my 60 day clock? Or is the 60 day clock started from when I "activate" the iphone by connecting it to wifi and using it?

Order on 4/10, just ship today

How long is shipping taking for you? I'm heading to Latin America a week from Friday so I was hoping to take advantage of free roaming but it will only work if it comes here on time.

Looks like they have an SE3 for free as well for the price of two months plus the port and ID thing. Some folks still prefer the smaller form factor. I wish the 16e would have been in the mini format, I would be all over that thing.
