1. After buying the phone in Walmart, you can pay off phone via ATT online chat. For Verizon you have to go to a store.
2. ATT activation fee can be voided instantly from the bill by clicking on "Don't recognize this fee" when the bill arrives even if it's more than 3 days from activation which will mostly happen if you ship it to your house.
3. ATT version can be instantly unlocked using eSIM swap. It's YMMV but for most people it works if you follow the instructions below and do the transfer of the eSIM properly from iPhone to another phone.
4. Even if the eSIM swap does not work I have seen some getting the phone unlocked by chatting with CS once the phone is paid off. That also is YMMV
Sim swap instructions
1. There are two timelines 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. But as mentioned earlier that fee can be voided instantly by clicking on "Don't recognize this fee" in the bill even after 3 days.
2. You can use SIM swap method method to unlock the device.
3. When you receive the phone activate it on ATT with the eSIM. Make sure it shows up on myATT app/in the web so ATT knows and registers the IMEI in the network. Then transfer the eSIM to another unlocked phone. Make sure you are transferring the eSIM without making a new one so no ATT involvement. Reboot the other phone, make some calls and make sure this unlocked phone is now showing under the line in app/web portal.
4. Now go to ATT unlock portal https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/ (in incognito mode) and then choose not an ATT customer and use the IMEI of iPhone nd submit an unlock request using a different email, phone number, name etc not associated with the ATT account.
5. Confirm the unlock request email and receive the unlock code.
6. ONLY CANCEL THE LINE AFTER YOU HAVE UNLOCKED THE PHONE. OTHERWISE, YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK IT ANYMORE.
Edit: Forgot to mention you will have to try the SIM swap roughly 24 hours after paying off the phone. The unlock portal syncs with the billing system every night or so.

Under an eligible iPhone 16's product page at walmart.com click on See Details when it talks about whatever iPhone 16 coming with a $300 or $500 Walmart egift card.
The pop up will mention the dates/times for Event01, but below it will mention the dates/times for Event02.
So far it looks like at least the egift card sale for the iPhone 16 line will happen again on Event02, but I believe some slickdealers are hoping for a (not as high value) gift card deal for the iPhone 17 line as well…if not android phones since it used to be the last 2 years worth of iPhones and (usually Samsung Galaxy) androids that were offered for this deal in years past.
Good luck!
Edit: yes, I'm now caught up with knowing that it looks like the deal is still active, but at the time I didn't see a reply or the new links showing the new date range. My apologies for any confusion.
Hopefully by the time Event02 has started they'll have the currently OOS iPhone 16 phone variants available again!

"You can pay off your device payment agreement any of these ways:
Sign in to My Verizon to view your Device Overview page. Select Manage to pay off the balance for that device.
At a Verizon store.
Note:
When you pay off your device, any monthly promotional credits you get for that device will stop.
If it's still within the device's 30-day return and exchange period, then you can only pay off the device in a Verizon store."
The area in question is the Southern California region.
Thanks for any info!
what should I do?
