Ok your account number is just your GV phone number and your pin is your "call to listen" pin that you set up in the settings of GV. You first have to pay $3 to unlock the GV number.

Porting and failed attempts to order the phone. FYI if you go through the last step and Metro reserved the number you are porting in. But you failed, their payment screen and your order did not go through. Be advised that that number(s) that you attempted to port (no atter how many different phone numbers) are locked in Metro Port Reservation. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE THAT NUMBER to process new order using that same # until you call Metro and ask to be transferred over to the porting department and ask them to delete the port. You will also not be able to port it anywhere else until they delete the port reservation. So, all you folks that tried to process a zillion orders after your initial order failed it will never work (even if you fix why your payment didn't go through) until YOU CALL METRO to fix your PORT. With all that said the port dept will want to verify you and the easiest way is for them to send you a SMS to your metro phone so your you don't have a Metro phone working well welcome to the struggle bus have a seat and relax your gong to be on the phone with Metro for some time. Please know this address multiple attempts at porting the same phone number not all the other reasons orders fail on the payment screen. All I can say on that one is , Don't use VPN, don't use discover, don't use a virtual number, wait 48 not 24 hours for your last order attempt to clear out of their system and if you are a religious person…pray

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

For those of you having the fraud screen, do this -

Use a VPN
Different credit card #
Add a fake apartment # to your address (if you live in a house)

This has worked for me in the past.

Data Point: Got new GV new number today. Created Pin code in GV for port transfer. Check the city from GV where your areacode is, so you can get the zipcode to enter when porting in Metro website. Was able to get an IP13@metropcs today.

So if the area code is 917 then use a NYC zip code.

Got the same message a few minutes ago. No luck. I tried a suggestion someone made of calling Metro and the agent was able to take my GV info down and it worked! The site must be having problems or something.

Tried too many times then. Smilie I made a new GV number. You can try that if you don't want to wait but if you do, call.

When you are assigned a number in GV, you can view the city associated with that number. I was able to obtain the zip code for the city from Google, and it worked for me.

To order 2nd phone from the same account, should I do it after I receive the first phone and activate it? or can I add another line now to get the 2nd line for $20 like someone mentioned?

Don't you have to have a first phone delivered to order a second one?
