I received my device today and activated it, transferred the e-sim to my other iPhone and then went to Apple. They accepted the trade-in no questions asked: $310.

So no one else is getting full price iPhone 16e when adding new line with port in? Only me? I am selecting the right $60 a month ($55 with autopay). But it just doesnt give me the promo.

Hmmm... ordered the 16e twice, got 2 cancellations...

First time tried to port a straight talk number, which metro may have messed up on me.

Then tried a tmobile prepaid (free) number, which ordered... but again, cancelled on me.

What am I doing wrong here? Bad numbers to port? Should I try a different CC, or different ship to address? Ordered one phone from them so far (stylus) so it's not like I ordered a ton from them. Assume we can have more than one phone line?

Different address. They're limiting to one phone per address it seems now.

Easiest solution is different CC with different address for each order. People are reporting you can use PayPal to keep the same CC - but still need a different address for each order. Have to attach a different primary address to your card in PayPal for each order for the time being.

If it is a porting issue - you will get an email from Cricket giving you a link to update your info. If not, and your order is still canceled, it is a billing/same address as the previous order issue.

Used a T-Mobile Prepaid port with no issue today.

Your target phone is an android phone the easiest way is to call customer support. Transfer from apple to android can be problematic if it works at all when you do it yourself

I added 3 lines total. 1st line $120, second line $30, 3rd line $20. Should be paid in full right? My account shows $50 due. Is this correct?

separate, your 2nd line order for 16e cost only $30 with one month service, if you order together your 2nd line would cost $90.
I bought iphone13 no port plus $25 promo for $87.99. basically paid for phone and 1 month of service.
I just bought a 16e (ported number) with 1 month of service .
I understand I can let service for 2nd line expire but what about my 1st line? Do I still need to pay for a 2nd month? If so, do I just leave it on auto pay and click cancel for the 2nd line?

Hmm... but the payment (cc) needs to match the address, correct? Can I simply change the ship to address even though my cc is linked to my home address?

I'll see about changing it in paypal... never did that before. Although easiest if I can simply use a cc like normal and ship somewhere else and it'd actually work.

My fault by being late to the 16e party.. I was busy working on Metro deals and skipped this one...

You can use cc from Privacy then you put in any name/ address

Idk what the comparison is but my total at the store was $182.50 after tax. That plus the original $120 puts me at around $300 total for $930 worth of apple giftcards
do they check for your ID at the store?
