ATT requires 60 days active before unlocking the phone. However, there is SIM Swap method which worked well in the past for unlocking paid-off ATT phones right away.
0. Do the following steps after paying off the phone fully and then waiting for a day or so for the unlock portal to get the paid off status.
1. ATT changed their unlock policy on 3/18 to require 60 days of service before they can unlock a fully paid device. Previously, it used to be right away if you have paid in full.
2. There two timeline for the cancellation. If you cancel a line before 3 days it was active then the activation fee is waived. If you cancel it within 14 days from activation under buyers remorse then no bill is charged but activation fees need to be paid. The line activates on right when you place the order not the day you receive the phone on hand so you might have to pay the activation fee of $35.
3. You can use a tello number and port to ATT but you would have to make sure porting is successful by going to https://www.att.com/portstatus/. Many from z fold 3 got stuck in porting limbo and got the ATT account cancelled.
4. As with many deals here, a SIM swap method is found which can be used to unlock the device. This was working recently but not sure if ATT would fix it by the time you try it. The steps are as follows.
a. Pay in full for the phone.While your payment will quickly reflect in your account it will be at least a few hours before it updates for the unlock request.
b. When you receive the phone activate it on ATT with the SIM provided. Make sure it shows up on myATT app/in the web so ATT knows and registers the IMEI in the network. Then put the SIM in another unlocked phone, reboot, make some calls and make sure this unlocked phone is now showing under the line in app/web portal.
c. Now go to ATT unlock portal https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/ and then choose not an ATT customer and use the IMEI of ATT phone and submit an unlock request.DO NOT attempt more than twice or you will be blocked for 24 hours.
d.Confirm the unlock request email and receive the unlock code.
e. Only cancel the line after you have unlocked the phone.
Then after unlocking if you are feeling adventurous and want to flash the phone to an unlocked firmware to get rid of ATT bloat you can follow these steps. It's actually very easy to do with Odin.
1. There are many models of s22 ultra but in US two models are imp. S908U is carrier locked version and S908U1 is the unlocked US version. The firmware for these versions are interchangeable so you can flash the ATT model with S908U1 firmware.
2. Download patched odin v3.14.1_3B_PatchedD.zip from https://xdaforums.com/t/patched-o...1.3762572/ as regular odin does not allow flashing mismatched firmware.
3. Download the firmware from S908U1 XAA version from https://samfrew.com/model/SM-S908U1/region/XAA/ Extract as there will be multiple files.
4. Connect S22U to the windows PC.
5 .Put s22u in download/recovery/odin mode. Power down. Press Volume up and down together and then press Volume up to go into recovery (a green screen would appear).
6. Start odin and then select different files for different categories and then start.
7, It should be now the US unlocked version.
Finally i received end of 3rd day. it was memorial day holiday when i ordered hence the delay. Was able to cancel it 4th day. Will likely get bill including the activation fee which will see if can get waived . Thanks OP

You can pay it off as many have done here, provided you are sure that package won't get lost.
Arriving today and paying off, just had to make sure the shipping had movement.
Keep me updated.
1) Will I be able to receive software updates using my T-Mobile service, or does the phone need to be connected to AT&T service to receive updates since it is still technically an AT&T phone?
2) If I flash the phone to an unlocked firmware, will it be able to receive future software updates regardless of what carrier I'm using for service? After flashing, is it no longer seen as an AT&T phone?
Thank you to anyone who has experience with this that can answer, and thank you for the original deal post and the very helpful WIKI info.
Glad that worked out. 1. I'd flash unlocked firmware if you are using it with T-Mobile. Samsung nowadays uses multi CSC firmware which switches to carrier depending on the SIM card. I dont know if that will happen with ATT firmware though, did you see T-Mobile app/boot screen etc when you put the T-Mobile.SIM.
2. It's same as a Samsung factory unlocked phone so it will receive all the updates perhaps a bit later than carrier ones.

Is the benefit to paying it off now just that it might get delivered within the 3 day window and an easier cancel and faster unlock?

You do have to wait for the phone to unlock it but the unlock request might only work a day after paying off so there's that. For ATT activation fee can be waived instantly even after 3 days.

I placed order on Sunday 4Pm, but order still pending
When I open the Sim Manager, I see 'No Sim Card' and under eSIMs I see 'Add eSim' but there are no E-sims listed. When I click add, I have Transfer Sim from another phone and Search for eSims.
Primay Sim is also grayed out below.
Are you guys suggesting just popping my SIM in from my other phone, and seeing what happens? This is a brand new account on Verizon (I have an existing business account) and I registered for it through the Walmart website, so I don't even have an email and password to log in to Verizon with. Forgot my password on Verizon doesnt even send an email for reset to my 'registed' gmail account...
I created my Verizon.com acct with email and password before the phone arrived.. When I would try to link the phone number that it assigned me during the purchase it kept giving me an error. I tried again a couple times the day after it arrived and it finally accepted the phone number so that told me I did have an acct.
After that is when I actually turned the phone on and went thru the set up process. It never said it was installing an esim but it did.
I never received any emails from Verizon until AFTER the phone was set up

And you do see the amount owed for the device?
I couldn't get the waived activation fee since the delivery from Fedex was delayed over the weekend. I will chat with ATT to cancel this tonight.
I also tested trading in with this phone from ATT website, they quoted its value at $100
I'm not trading in but it might be great for those who are fans of Apple.
