Effective Date: April 1, 2025
Unlocking a cellphone associated with one of Verizon Value's brands refers to disabling software that would otherwise prevent you from activating the cellphone on another carrier's network. However, due to different carrier technologies, an unlocked Verizon Value cellphone may not work, or may experience limited functionality, on another carrier's network. Verizon Value is not responsible for any limitations of service, or otherwise, resulting from the use of an unlocked cellphone on another provider's network. Verizon Value is unable to unlock Non-Verizon Value branded cellphones using Verizon Value service (BYOP).
For customers with cellphones capable of remote unlocking (this includes most iPhones and some Android cellphones):
Verizon Value will remotely unlock the phone when it becomes eligible for unlocking, provided it meets the following conditions:
The cellphone must be in working condition and turned ON.
The cellphone has not been reported stolen or lost and there are no indicators of fraud.
The cellphone was activated with Verizon Value service by purchasing and redeeming an airtime plan on that specific phone ("Activation")
For all cellphones Activated prior to November 23, 2021 on any carrier network and all cellphones Activated on the T-Mobile or AT&T networks on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked upon customer request after twelve (12) months of active paid service.
For all cellphones Activated on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, the cellphone will be remotely unlocked automatically 60 days after paid Activation and 60 days of paid active service.

some people might have this in their Amex Offers:
Straight Talk - Smartphones, Prepaid Plans & More
Spend $45 or more, earn $20
Expires 3/31/26
2 phones + 1 tab is $120 (+ tax)
Tab comes with 3 month service and it is already unlocked
For the phones, We need another 1 month service. We can use $35 bronze plan to unlock it
Amex $20 back /Chase 15% has offers
(Very few people has success with buying Walmart $25 Straight Talk top up card & there are some, who rebranded the phone to Tracfone and then bought 90 days plan for $20 and unlocked the phone)
Tab promotion is limited to one per account
Community Reviews
The bundle stands out as a strong value for a Moto G Stylus 2025 phone pair plus TCL Tab 10 NxtPaper, especially for reading and light media use. The tablet is repeatedly described as an eye friendlier e paper style screen, good for comics, PDFs, and e reading, and it arrives unlocked with three months of service. The phones are praised for being smooth enough for everyday use, with 8 GB of RAM and a better chip than cheaper alternatives. The main caveat is the unlock and service timing, since the phones need about 60 days of paid service and activation details can affect the clock.

Let the buyer(s) know of service/unlock options
Can use junk email that I hand off to buyer.
At activation time can the buyer setup acct with their address, etc?
I had done the previous similar 2024 moto edge deal. That one you didn't have to pay for the 2nd month to unlock. Just had to wait 60 days from activation.
Any ideas appreciated

The $25 plan won't work
.
Purchase of any phone gets the tablet deal. The A16 and Moto G Power are also free with plan.
The $25 plan won't work
In my experience, marketplace buyers won't care and don't like complications. The value-add for unlocked is greater than your cost, I'd just wait it out to sell local with no strings. If you insist on selling now, you could prepay their second month so it will unlock on day 61.
Is the conversion to Total for the second month possible for the unlock?

Nah, just get the A16 or Moto G Power instead, as already mentioned. Or whatever free phones that happen to be in stock.
If the goal is primarily the tablet, it won't be much of a difference.
