T-Mobile 30 day eSIM Trial on T-Life App you can port it out for free. I got 4 phones to use on trials from Straight Talk/Total Wireless deals unlocked in last 3 years.

After get Free Trial Number create a T-Mobile ID: Use the T-Mobile website to link your trial number to a email/profile.

Locate Account Info: Your account number in the "Account Summary" section of the online portal. Generate a Port PIN: Under Settings in Profile

For Chrome, open incognito page, chose I need a new number, chose $55 plan, enter your zip, hit get new number, hoover your mouse to the top right area near the X then message for coupon will pop up, works for me every time. These $25 off coupon works for only new customer, won't work for existing customer option. I can give you a code if you can't generate one.

I can unlock it as soon as I get it, no need to wait six months.
Curious on how that would be done.

Can anyone else confirm this? In need of a new phone and carrier and this seems like a really good deal.
Yes, this is correct if only needing one line, cheaper with multiple lines, though 2 seems to be the limit based on what I'm seeing. Got lucky myself...

how to check port in status? Also, can we add 2nd or 3rd line right away with discount, or need to wait for the phone to arrive, activate and then add additional lines? Thanks in advance.

Have to wait and activate phone before purchasing additional devices for the multi line discount.

I ordered 2 each time and got the immediate discounts, while the phone was $50 in January! And another 2 in February on the same account. It is limited to 2 per order per device, a pretty hard and fast rule, as I understand. I just activated lines 3 and 4 just over a week ago and it's already allowing me to do another 2 more lines, due to the fact it sees this as a different promo.
Another option you can choose is pick line 3 as a different device, like the iPhone 13. I almost pulled the trigger on that for my 3rd and 4th lines a couple weeks back before the system gave me the 16e promo a second time.

After the 2 months are up on the $60 plan can you downgrade to the $35 plan for the remaining 4 months to qualify for the 6 month unlock policy?

6 months paid service
So it will cost a total of $360 for unlock in 6 months after port in from the other carrier. Is it correct?

I'm having of a ton of pending charges and "Oops! Looks like we're having a problem with our system. Please try again later." No confirmation email for me, so I'll wait until tomorrow. Maybe it hates the promo code right now?

Existing customer discount, pics attatched.
Does that require a ported number for the new line or will a new number work?

Quote from Enoch42 :
It's $120 plus fees and taxes for the phone, if you want a locked to Cricket phone.

It's $240 plus fees and taxes if you switch to the cheaper $30 month plan after four months. And wait the full 6 months of service to unlock it.

If you do the Tello trick, it's $5 plus fees and taxes. Also a transfer fee to Cricket.

There will be a flood of these on eBay soon enough.
if buy (2) 16e they give multi line discount. You can also get (2) iphone 13 w/new number for 3rd/4th line $49.99+$20 line each. Apple Trade is $310 16e Gift Card / $195 iphone 13 https://www.apple.com/shop/trade-in

Total $350 or $430 with new numbers no porting for $1010 in apple gift cards. You can then buy unlocked iphone 17 pro $1099 from apple total cost $350+$89 dollars.

I did not dared to resubmit the form as I already received order confiormation email. Just closed the window, Order status is showing as "processing", So I will check back again on Monday, when it will be time for shipment.

I am bringing my own phone number, so no promo code for me.
