So you pay 160 plus tax upfront and if you stay 2 more months they are refunded in part by 100 gc?
I believe you pay $99 for phone + $155 for service. 3 months later you get $100 back through virtual card

So you have to be a new customer? I have an existing account from the razr flip phone. Was wondering if you could add a line that's being ported in

use a different email and one address can have 3 phones within 6 months (at least that's last year policy)

The phone is free as you are getting a prepaid mastercard.. The 3 months service is $155. From the Metro website
"iPhone 16e
Get one for FREE and bring your number With instant rebate and Virtual Prepaid Mastercard after 3rd month of service when you switch to Metro on the $50/mo. with AutoPay, $55 for first month plan"
I think the right way to position is
"Iphone 16E with 3 Months of Service for $155".

The 100$ isnt making sense, as there is no way in which you give $100 and get the phone.
The minimum is $155. The optional item is 3 months of service.

The deal title is misleading. It should be something like

Apple iPhone 16e + 3 Months Service $155 after $100 Virtual Prepaid Mastercard (w/ Port-In) @ Metro
Quote from lolopolo :
if I'm reading this correctly, in either case it costs $155, so where does $99 come from?
because youre getting three months of service...the phone is free. this works well for people wanting to switch to metro and plan touse the service for at least three months and then they can leave but the phone is still locked for 1 year.

The post clearly says "NO Google Voice or Number Barn" 🤣 they've banned using virtual phone number like GV for months

How is this phone versus the standard 16? Is this a large downgrade or just missing the 1 extra camera on back?

not worth changing your phone carrier all the time for these mediocre deals.
