You'll need to provide 2 documents: 1 for proof of identification, and 1 for proof of address. Choose from the lists below:
1. Acceptable proof of ID (must a be a JPEG, PNG or JPG file):
- State-issued driver's license* or learner's permit (18 or older)
- State-issued ID* (military IDs excluded)
- U.S. Passport
- U.S. VISA
2. Acceptable proof of address (must be a PDF, JPEG, PNG or JPG file):
- Public utility bill (from the last 30 days)
- Vehicle registration card
- Home landline telephone bill
- Cable or data service provider bill
- Current lease or mortgage agreement
The quickest way to securely submit your document(s) is by using your mobile device's camera with the link below. If you are using a desktop computer, you can scan the document and upload through the same link. Make sure that you capture the full document where all information, edges and corners are clearly visible. Modified, expired, false, torn, blurry or incomplete documents will not be accepted. Any other documents outside of the list above will not be accepted either.

Also. embracing for the time machine jokes, I still think 16e 128gb at $299 for the phone, was a better deal and might come back - far superior processor, 8gb ram, Apple AI support, longer os update support, convenient usb-c port instead of lightning etc. These far outweigh the potential advantages from 14 plus - 256gb, dual camera, magsafe, larger screen size etc for me.
Not true for everyone/every use case, agreed. YMMV

Now that Mr Turd is the president, they are trying to reverse this decision/agreement and want to unlock after 6 months of service like how ATT, T-mobile are doing.

If he gives in to Verizon's idiotic requests, it will absolutely harm the consumer.
After 60 days of paid active service and ordinary usage, we will automatically remove the lock unless the device is deemed stolen or purchased fraudulently
Edit - I'm worried that Verizon may use the 'stolen or purchased fraudulently' as an excuse to not unlock many of these devices. I kept a copy of the previous version of the unlock policy which does not have any of this verbiage. The policy should apply as of the date of purchase and not the current policy.

It says "Updated on: May 22, 2025". For those of us here who PURCHASED BEFORE that date, we should ABSOLUTELY be allowed to have it unlocked after 60 days from Activation, which was the policy at the time of purchase. With NO second paid month needed. Otherwise, I would NOT have purchased.
If they refuse to unlock the phone exactly as promised in the terms at the time of purchase, I am going to file a complaint with the BBB. Everyone here should too. They canNOT just get away with this.
EDIT: meant to say FTC, not BBB.

Everyone that bought the STW deals had to buy a second month to unlock. Filing with BBB n FCC n FTC n ABC n 123 don't do jack shit.
