The short version, you must call Metro to make sure any/all the number(s) you are porting over that previously succeed Port Reservation but failed Payment are not locked now to metro reservation once locked to metro they will not work with a new order or another wireless company. This deal is killing me softly, now I remember why I avoided Metro for so long
EDIT: after reading the comments on this thread, I see that many people are reporting that a google voice number can be ported over to metro again (like the good old days).

iphone 16e is $99, and you only get a $100 rebate if you pay for 3 months.
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank
I think the only advantage of iPhone 13 is the camera, processorwise 16e is still a win.
My concern with 16e is that since it is a "budget" line, it MAY not be part of trade in offers from carriers like tmobile, similar to how SE2 has not been part of the trade in offers but iPhone 12 still is.
Just to save a few pennies...
What a deal.
Some people../rolleyes
2. It can be traded in for a newer better phone
3. It can be used as a Metro phone if you need a phone line at some point
4. It unlocks next year, meanwhile it costs merely $55
And, a year later you can give it to elder parents, kids - phone users that don't need latest and greatest and certainly don't need a thousand $ phone to get it lost.
As I predicted, careers finally came to the conclusion that when locking their hardware for a year they'll have to offer it for free. Most likely will see this kind of deal on iphone 15 and 16e very soon, probably from the other MVNOs that require continuous active paid service to unlock. Upcoming Black Friday I won't be surprised to see iPhone 16 for $0 from the MVNOs.
