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 ordered two devices in my account in two different orders, and the orders went through. However, one was shipped and delivered but the other had a shipping label but not given to UPS yet. Does the 2nd have any chance to be shipped?
Ordered two, about 15 minutes apart.
One shipped the next day, the other didnt go out for two days.
They both ended up being delivered together.

had the same thing, eventually UPS got it and got delivered. You might have to wait another day or 2.

No
If you choose to discontinue your eligible plan during the 6-month promotional subscription period, your promotional subscription will end on your Total Wireless service end date, and any remaining time in it will be lost.

When you received the phone, how did you port your number?

I can not figure out how to activate/port my Visible number or use my number barn number.

PS I chose Verizon as my carrier since visible is not listed. I will update if it works.

YMMV, but I activated after 22 days (from purchase to porting activation). After a couple weeks you get automatic emails reminding you to activate.

I ported GV number yesterday evening. Outgoing calls started to work instantly but no incoming (even today morning). Is it just the porting period being long for a "landline" type number? Or is it time to contact their support (which I understand is not so great)?

Metoo, I still waiting for activation the phone number port in from GV. Number.
