Can't replicate the deal, I had the 16e on us 3-month unlimited 5g+ plan. I guess it saves me to get a junk tablet.

Will never use Total again. They deactivated my service 3 times during the 3 month period for not using enough. Once unlocked I swapped phone back to Verizon.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank geektech

I got one from Straight Talk a couple of days ago. The screen is fantastic for reading and static contents (non-video contents), especially in the color-reading mode when I read ebooks. The battery drains little faster than expected though.

So it looks like Straight Talk sold off all their TCL stock to Verizon for this offer.

Folks I purchased a56 and had one month service. But a month passed with no service. So if I have to unlock, should I need to have continuous 60 day or service or just 30 more days ? Also, does anyone know if tracfone Sim works/can be activated on total wireless to count for 60days?

Tab 8 NXTPAPER is also $35. It has only 4GB RAM, but it's probably better as an e-reader.

60 days service is mandatory for unlock the mobile

I have the $40 plan and it doesn't qualify for this offer. Needs 50 or $60 plan.

is this the place that collects and keeps your IDs to do anything?

Edit, yeah I looked into it, they use some third party clown show called Veriff, hard to get rid of, they actually collect MORE info to make sure you are you when you try to get rid of them. No way no thanks. I am deleting the email account I started with Total. Yuck.

I have a friend with total that did the "free" iPhone 13 with 3 months, he's paid until January. So he could add this tablet and pay the $45 ($35 for tablet and $10 for the monthly service) and just pay that month and gets to keep it with no other payments? Thanks for any helptrying to add it for him but I doubt it will work since his promotion is: Total 5G Unlimited 3-Month
Straight talk has an interesting deal when I was getting the Moto g stylus 2025 for free with a $55 plan, they were offering to upsell me the TCL 10 tablet for free if I paid $60 for 3 months of tablet coverage $20 each month.

Basically $60 for a 5G capable tablet with three months of service was pretty tempting. But only 4 GB of RAM so I mean that's like fire tablet territory.

It is tempting though just cuz I desperately want to try this next paper stuff.

thanks, yes I know that. my question is
1. does it have to be consecutive? or can I have a break in between 30 days?

2. Can I use/activate tracfone sim on this instead?
