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).

You do not have to call. But sometimes you need to insert a non-Metro SIM card to "activate." When it handshakes with the Apple server, it will unlock. I don't ever recall the phone going from "locked" to "unlocked" without forcing it...

Well, I ordered and ported a gvoice number. Hope there's no issues after I activate. lol
But does anyone know if this phone (while it is still locked to Metro) can be used as a trade-in device with t-mobile or any other providers? Has anyone done this before? Thank you!
