I got this promotion 2 days ago, I had to call 5 different stores around my area, all them were charging $400 - $500 price out of the door. Only on one I was able to get $300. They asked me for my ID and I had to verify myself with a selfie scanner, just like the website. FYI

this is my plan as apple might start tthe rade-in value from at least $220
You can't trade in a 16e, at least not yet or until the 17e is released. Apple is still selling the 16e. Also, the SE phones always have extremely low trade values. The SE3 is only worth $80 while the iPhone 13 with the same A15 chip is worth $180.

Boost bought from Amazon at $5. Customer agent may give some hard time to give you port in info.

That's the nice thing about visible numbers, even though more expensive. No need to talk to CS. 1-click port-out info.

Metro is T-Mobile. Unlock after 12 months. But it will be Network unlocked, not factory unlocked. It will only work with the T-Mobile carriers—Mint Mobile, US Mobile, etc.
It will NOT work with Visible.. Visible uses the Verizon Network.

FYI - I was unable to transfer a Verizon Fios Digital Voice Unlimited number; customer support said they could not transfer it because it was considered a landline.
