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.

No, not possible. It used to be, but they closed that loophole a while ago.
It says expired? I just checked on cricketwireless.com and this deal is still valid and active. Also, I checked with Cricket Wireless corporate and customer support, whom themselves said you can still do this to the $40 plan. Not sure who told you it can no longer be an plied to a line/account becsuse as they (Cricket Wireless) said they are curious where you got this information . Do you happen read this somewhere and they would like for you to kindly post it here, so then I can forward it to them for further investigation. Thank you for your assistance.

Went to my local Apple Store and no questions asked when I traded in one (1) iPhone 16e. The guy that took my trade-in was excited that it was their first iPhone 16e being traded in.

Have cancel the line or port it out. If plan to keep your main service. They keep billing all lines combined.

IDK an easy way, but I tried to port out a number. You'll still have the slot used for the ongoing month (e.g., you can't buy #6 for the price of #3 if you have only two lines left), but the price for the next month was recalculated.
According to Gemini, the number of lines will not just reset to the actual number next month, but you may also see a prorated price (unused days will be converted to $$ and reduce the next month's payment for the lines you keep). I didn't try the full path though.

Tried various tricks posted here to obtain a $25 coupon. No pop ups in any of my browsers (with/without incognito). If anyone has any other suggestions or a coupon to spare, please DM. Thanks in advance.

Limit is $2000. If you have more to add, it'll display a message of the limit If you add something close to that amount to your cart in the online apple store and the item costs a few hundred more, you will also have the option to add a few more gift cards right there in the cart. I know this becauses I collect Apple Gift cards

Hmm, Cricket won't allow me to port in any of my Metro by T-Mobile numbers - give an error stating that the number can't be ported.
When I switched from T-Mobile to Visible last year, it initially work even with all the porting info. I had to actually speak to T-Mobile to verify my identity through a slight interrogation. Eventually, it all worked. T-Mobile has a history of being socially engineered and allowing SIM swaps to scammers so I think they are being cautious.

You used to be able to downgrade from the $60/month plan to the $40/month plan immediately after activating, which turned the 2 months prepaid into 3 months prepaid. That's what the person you responded to was talking about.

Can I buy two phones at a time with numbers from different accounts/transfer pin? I see that it is asking only for one combination of account number and pin
Yes, during order placement, you can provide one account/pin but soon they will shoot an email to you asking for account number for the 2nd port-in and then another email asking for PIN of 2nd port-in number.
So yes you can go with two different port-in accounts.
Once you placed the order, you can also check on their port status page, it will show if any additional details are needed so update your details for the 2nd number.

If you did not opt in autopay they won't charge you. You can check it in your account setting and make sure it is off before you do trade in
