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 got this deal to trade in the phones but to answer your question no they won't unlock until you get 6 months of payed service and you can't move the esim or it restarts the 6 months
Oh ok, so you're just transferring to another phone to use the data from the prepaid plans. Got it.

Yes just chatbot...took about 20minutes to do all 4 transfers now I can go trade these in for apple gift cards.
I'm learning... some posted here Apple store requires "You need to wait for the second month to pass and then trade it in". I don't know their opinion or of Apple store?

Can the device be sent to apple for trade in right away while the prepaid month is still active? Do I have to wait for the month to end? Do I need to suspend the line before sending? What's the process here?

Take to Apple Store to Trade. Fedex/UPS steal iphones and the prepaid label has no insurance.

if apple gets package with no phone they won't give you anything and deny trade and no insurance for package.

For those who did the port-in promotion: once the device arrives, do we need to verify the number with an OTP to complete the port-out from the previous carrier?

I already have the port-out details, but unfortunately I'm unable to verify the OTP even though the number is still active.

New account, ordered one 16e, activated.
Trying to order second 16e, it is giving generic error.
Any specific checks to be done?

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.
https://www.cricketwireless.com/portStatus.html
I got only one email and text to couple of devices for PIN, which I provided. Had not received any mail or text for account number for 2nd line, Now the port status is "You are all set"!
What to do?

Seen this asked but must have missed the answer. After the first two months on supreme, can I downgrade to the $35 a month plan for the remaining four months until it is eligible for unlock?

Anyone having/had issues porting out from Helium into Cricket?

Submitted an order for line 2 and 3, bringing my number in with two different carriers: Visible and Helium.

My order is being held up because the port info (account/pin/number) from Helium is not taking and Cricket is periodically asking for my Helium account number again. Meanwhile, port in info from Visible has been confirmed.

I successfully ported Helium for my #1 line.
