I think it checks if you have service at 60 day or not. Her number was totally different than what I activated with.

How do you get around this? Or any other way to get a cheap new number?

Lets say you used your reg cell number to create a new GV number (GV1) -- you port out GV1 to Total/VZ
GV1 is now a VZ wireless number once the port is complete -- use GV1 to create a new GV2 number so you have GV2 available to use in the future (instead of leaving your GV account empty)
See if a friend or family member will let you use their number for GV
US Mobile has $10 2gb plan but you'll need to wait a week before their online chat will give port out info -- might also have to use it for few calls/texts since they don't like people creating numbers for porting out
Tello has plans starting at $5 (might charge $3 for sim/esim) -- not sure how long until they give port out info but you can probably use it to create new GV number if there's a delay
Also my first line ends 10/15 because thats 3 months from 7/15. But my 2nd line is also showing that it ends 10/15 even though I activated yesterday/today. Rep said its a glitch and not to worry.
Edit: It posted! Worked like a charm . So this one $165 - $111 - $15 = Slick! (for 13)
If I port out his number before 60 days to avoid next month charge then will the phone be still unlocked b/c policy states 60 days of active usage? Or is it better to get a temp number to port?

There is another option to generate port out pin that customer service had suggested although I did not try that. Text NTP to 611611 and the account number is the IMEI/serial number of the phone

Buyer beware!
