Isn't it still $50 off with Visible sim kit bundle (now $30, Special Offers)? Why activate with VZW?

* $129 + $30 - $50 = $109. No activation required.

If it is truly unlocked, it shouldn't be required to be activated with a particular carrier.

Looks like credit pull is required to create an account with Verizon

The $100 discount is coming from Verizon line activation from BB nothing to do with the phone

I don't think it's me. I put the price, if you are not seeing it something is broken on SD.

Thank you!!!!
Needed this for my teen.
I get how to do the "unlock/cancel" but does it matter whether I pick verizon or at&t at 1st if I am not sure what network we will use the phone on (meaning...same phone right? No band difference)

You have to pick Verizon to get the discount but the phone is factory unlocked version with all bands so will work on any carrier.

I can confirm the step-by-step instructions work. I started the phone up with the SIM that shipped with it to get the number, set up an ID at Verizon, and contacted CS via chat to disconnect the line. The estimated bill I can see online has the activation fee refunded, and the $10 paperless/autopay discount looks like it will cover the 2 days service, fees and taxes.
