I'm enjoying this very nice upgrade from my SE 3rd Gen. that I use as a WiFi only device. $75 trade in for the SE, makes this a super Slick $45 deal. Thanks to the original poster.

Just to confirm cricket is no longer allowing anyone to order more than one phone to the same shipping address? So this deal is over essentially.
The real savings were when ordering more than one line.

To those stuck in the infinite order cancellation loop like me:The only way I was able to get another order to go through is by shipping to a different address
Adding line in existing account or a new order? Is the order sticking?

Any of the phones still have the IMEI attached to the Cricket phone numbers via eSIM?
Both phone that was successfully traded in IMEI still attached to the phone number, the one got rejected I move the esim to an android phone.

Good data point. Did you have to reach out to customer service when changing eSIM from iOS to Android?

Interesting... my iPhone 16e that I mailed in to Apple got 'rejected'

Reason:
Unauthorized modification of the device
Just curious, did you transfer the esim to a different phone before you mailed to Apple?

I had 5 cancellations in a row plus 3 from yesterday. When I went on payment it keeps says, sorry we are on the struggle bus today try back later. I switched to Paypal check out and it failed. Then I took out my address and put the primary address on my Paypal account as my parents address. I went through the process again and it went through so far. Normally the cancellation is in 2 minutes but it has been 20 without notice. Good Call!

You need to retry. I had a positive result with two phones that were initially rejected. They had the same scan error in the Apple Store, then I sent them by FedEx and the phones were accepted.
I sent a few phones and all passed quickly except the "modified" ones. They were also finally accepted after more than a day, but considering the difference and delay in evaluation, I suspect they failed the initial scan and went through some special procedure.
I read online that scanners may cause false alerts, but a knowledgeable tech rep knows other ways to check and can pass it despite this error

Is this for a order on a new account or you adding lines to an existing account?

I added a line. I even tried to call in to customer service but they said the phone was out of stock and there was nothing they could do about it. So I went back and added a line. Changing the address on my PayPal account was the missing piece of the puzzle
