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.

Asked about the deal in store and was told deal is still on, however the price has been changed from $0 upfront to $1 due to fraudulent transactions that have been happening. Not sure how that helps with fraud or what kind of fraud they would have been dealing with. The customer still has to pay activation fees (somehow my store doesn't waive it) and whatever else.

they don't waive it because that activation fee straight up goes to their commission.

There are rumors of some new restrictions (only certain carriers are allowed) but otherwise it's still game on.

Helium was the quickest in terms of number activation (all online). What's the quickest now, considering that list?

Wouldn't be the first time they lied to me. I have gotten different info + prices for several stores I tried... seemingly all made up rules on the spot, some blatantly false.

It says 3 months of service due now vs 2 months in the OP.

It is considered dead?

type agent and it'll be a similar experience to the bot, you'll just need to give them your phone number and imei. it'll just be slower cause its a human on it instead
Agent only works if you still have access to the old line.

In regard to transferring the sim, I ran into a weird issue the other day.

I wanted to transfer the esim to my Moto Razr 25. I was in the store at the time, just bought the 13, and she said no problem, she'd transfer it over. But when she tried she said the Razr was not compatible with Cricket service.

Phone is unlocked. Anyone run across this before? She told me that I didn't need to delete the old sim in the Razr for the transfer, but just wondering if maybe that was the cause.

I assumed unlocked meant it worked with everyone?

Edit: In regard to the above post, iphone to iphone normally works without the need for a rep. But of course if you don't have a spare iphone that won't help much.

They don't do Google Pixel phones either. Not sure why they don't accept some unlocked devices.

It seems the deal is dead. I asked 2 stores and both said the promotion was over. They said they now have iphone 17e.
