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

I was able to successfully fully port the gv number after a 5 min call. If they sound like they don't know what to do just keep calling back till you get someone competent.
Yes, I called today and the agent knew exactly what to do, she said she first needed to convert the landline to mobile and then do the port in, it worked flawlessly, took like 5 minutes.

After you activate this phone you can get a Samsung A9+ tablet plus 1 month service for $20 and a Samsung Galaxy watch 7 for $40 including 1 months service.

Don't know. I have 2 tablets from previous deals and don't need a third. It's letting me order the discounted watch.

Hi a quick question! What if I take the $155 promotion and pay for only the first month &55 and at the same time buy a second line on its second eSIM which is on a lower $20 monthly charge also from metro? Will that make the phone work even it's still locked by metro? Thanks

So you want to have two metro lines on the same iPhone?

There is a new thread for only $55 now, does anyone know what is the difference between these two threads? Why the new thread looks like $100 cheaper?

Google Voice. Just download the app and pick your number from the list. Pay a $3 fee to own the rights to it. Then create a voicemail pin number. Use the phone number and the pin from voicemail and you will have all you need to port in for $3. About as easy as it gets

What did you use for the zip code? Some people on the other deal had issues with that. There was mention of using 00000 or your local zip.

*edit: I see others mentioning they used their own zip when asked.

I'm going to try the GV but still deciding on which to get. The 13 or the 16e.
