Helium zero plan worked for me, I only paid like $3.
I signed up for Helium. Would you mind sharing the info and process of requesting the port-out PIN from Helium?

haha.. sorry I tried to explain in too short sentence. MobileX offered me with PSim only, and it cost $10 for the psim, I even gave them the IMEI 2 (for esim). I hope you understand it. Something that I did it wrong?
np, but I have no experience with MobileX. You likely meant to tag someone else

Choose build your own plan and the 3.88 plan should show. Not sure what it's called. I'm not logged into the app. It logged me out once I initiated the port.
They offered you Psim or Esim? They give me Psim only, cost $10 to ship.

Different person than who you asked, but these are the steps that worked for me:

Once you have the number from Helium:

In your profile (top left icon of the main page of the app for me) hit billing/cancel plan and it'll ask if you want to port out your number. It'll display your account number and pin at the end. Took about 10 seconds to display both the account number and transfer out PIN, so be patient when the screen first pops up if the numbers aren't displaying.

You'll choose Other for Carrier on Cricket & then need to give both numbers (Helium account number and the Port Out Pin) to Cricket + Cricket also asks for a last 4 social security which most people have just put 0000.

Click the Phone icon (bottom left) then Profile icon (top left). Then "Billing" and "Cancel Plan". It should give you a few warnings/agreements, then will ask if you want to transfer/keep your number. Say yes, it will email you a verification code then give you the port out pin and your account number. Both are needed to port in to Cricket.Good luck! I was able to do this twice (two different emails) and successfully redeem on Cricket.

I apologize that I did not get to read the last 8 to 10 pages. Can somebody please help me out? Which service can I get a cheap number/eSIM to port out? I am trying to use my IMEI number two for my existing phone for that purpose.
Helium is your best bet... about $2 in taxes and simple to immediately cancel/port.

So it appears my order went through, but the page doesn't give me an order number/confirmation, just a generic message that "Your order is completed". No email confirmation yet but card was charged. Anyone get something like this before?
Had same issue. Ordered around 850am EST. Got no order confirmation, but did get shipping confirmation around 5pm EST.

I just used mobile X for a number to port. I picked create my own plan and got no data and the minimum talk and text. It cost me $5.96 And I was able to get a eSIM from them, I signed up in the app and it went smoothly. But they charge an extra $3 if you want to port out in the first 10 days of making the plan!

This morning I got the port update email from Cricket, and it was the Lycamobile number that had the issue (I'm guessing it was because of Lyca log in issues yesterday). I added Lyca account number and now my port status is "all set" and order is now "processing". My 2 metro lines expire in 3 days, hence hoping to get the new phones by then.

Would you know if I create a second Cricket account in my family's name for the same address, would I qualify for 2 or more $0 iphone 16e with port ins?

I'll order moto stylus with second account once my current order ships out, just so it does not cause issues for my pending order.
Appears don't even need activate the cricket lines unless plan to order more phones it makes activate previous lines first. it just keeps line cost in cricket balance if use port number.

I ordered cheaper iphone 13 w/new number and $25 off new customer popup. Then activated after delivery to get $30/$20 16e free w/port numbers they shipped and i still have $50 balance. Till activate new lines.

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.
Can you please generate a code for me, thank you

Yes, and pin is 6 digit.
Always take a screenshot when it displays the details. You must had entered the wrong info.

Thanks! I thought i double checked it. I put in my SSN Last 4 as 2345...
Can I call Cricket Wireless to get this corrected? The email I got, doesn't give any phone number to call.
Also, will this port-out issue hold up shipping of the phone?
