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

Isn't it free with just one month $55 plan for existing customers who port in? When I selected EXISTING user and "I'm bringing my number", nowhere does it say you need to pay for 2 months of service. The 2 months of service only applies to new users who port in for free phone.

Can any existing user confirm? My first Cricket phone was ordered on Thursday morning, but so far order status still shows Processing (not Shipped yet). Once i receive the phone, I'll try ordering 16E with a port in and see if I can get 16 for free with just one $55 payment.

Helium Free Plan is no longer free but taxes and fees charged. One can get a number for port in, however.

If I buy this and since the Apple trade-in value is $310, I may decide to trade ot in to Apple if I don't like the 16e.

Does anyone see a problem with this? I am not seeing anything in the terms on cricket website that would stop me from doing this deal and trading it in to Apple after activation?

Existing customer discount, pics attatched.
The screenshot was quite an eye opener. Thank you.

Would you know if the existing user's existing plan has to match the Supreme $55 plan to get these low $30 and $20 prices for the 16e? If only only existing cricket plan is $15 voice plan, will I be able to get these prices for 16e when I select Existing User and Port in?

Currently on a cricket 5 lines for 125 unlimited plan. Any shenanigans for using this discount to get one or more of those lines an upgraded phone without screwing up the plan? I assume its esim so not like the easy old days of buying and then just sim swapping.
ETA : They don't do 6 line plans so I don't think I can even start the add a line process

Looking for a $25 new customer signup promo code if anyone has an extra one they're willing to share via DM.
I've tried signing up several times on the website but the promo code box either doesn't show up at all or no automatic code is applied. Thanks in advance if anyone can help!"

what carrier do you select for a heliummobile number? the "other" option asks for last 4 of SSN which Helium shouldn't even know
That's the similar error I was getting using helium. I put other. And for social, I put 0000 but I was getting an error. I put my actual last 4 and it worked. You might be able to get away with any 4 random digits

Ordered 4 phones for $350 plus $8 tax. Breakdown below1st line: iPhone 16e - $120 (ported number)2nd line: iPhone 16e - $90 (ported number)3rd line: iPhone 13 -$70 (new number)4th line: iPhone 13 -$70 (new number)
So to unlock each one you need 6 * $50 =$300.00? That is $420 for a 16e? Great deal!!!!!

Does that require a ported number for the new line or will a new number work?

If you're already an existing customer then you should login try to add a line and see if you could get it for that price.

Cricket Unlock Policy:

If you have a Cricket phone, it may have been programmed with a lock that prevents it from operating with other compatible wireless networks. Cricket will unlock your device upon request, if you have met the following unlocking requirements:

The device you want to unlock has been active for at least six months of paid service on that device.
The device is designed for use on and is locked to Cricket's network.
The device has not been reported lost or stolen.
The device is not associated with a fraudulent account.
If you're an active Cricket customer and believe you meet the eligibility requirements listed above, follow these steps to unlock your device.

After porting in, total cost is $60 * 6 mo. = $360 for unlock. A renewed unlock iPhone 16e is $385 at amazon.com.
