## Important:
This deal includes a **locked, eSIM-only Pixel 10, a new Mint Mobile line, and 12 consecutive months of service**. It is a phone-and-service bundle, not a collection of separate promotions that can be rearranged however you want.
The included eSIM must be activated **within 45 days of purchase**. You cannot store it indefinitely and activate it years later.
You may activate the included Mint eSIM on another compatible phone and use the new Mint number there. However, you **cannot use the 12 months to extend or "top off" an existing Mint plan while keeping your current Mint number**. This offer creates a new line unless you port in an eligible number from another carrier.
The Pixel itself must be activated on Mint before its 60-day unlock period begins. The safest option is to activate the eSIM on the Pixel and keep it active there for the full 60 days. If you activate the service only on another phone, the Pixel may remain locked because it never completed the required activation period.
For example, you should not expect to:
* Move your existing Mint number onto this promotion as a renewal
* Transfer the new number to an old phone or landline and still have the Pixel automatically unlock
* Divide the 12-month plan into twelve one-month plans and sell them separately
* Wait beyond the 45-day activation deadline
* Save the activation for years or decades
* Combine the deal with every other Mint discount, referral or promotion
If you move the eSIM away from the Pixel before it completes the unlock process, the phone may remain locked until it has been activated on Mint for the required period.
While locked, the Pixel should work with Mint and may also work with T-Mobile, although that is not guaranteed. It can also be used as a Wi-Fi-only device for Google Voice, other VoIP services, messaging, music, video, email and Android apps.
**Bottom line:** If you think there's some sneaky way to extend an existing Mint like, or immediately unlock the phone, or resell it for more then it might work - but it's not really part of this pretty good deal.

You don't have to activate the plan you buy with the bundle on the Pixel 10. I don't really know how selling the plan would work with eSim though.
You absolutely can immediately transfer your current SIM to the brand new Pixel 10 when you get it in the mail.
The Pixel will simply be locked to Mint network until after it's been used on Mint for 60 days. Doesn't matter who's Mint account those 60 days come from.

Yeah. I'm just confused on how you'll sell the plan that comes with the phone. I don't know how the eSim works.
I guess best option would be before you order if you plan to sell the plan? Create an entirely throw away email. Make the purchase through that throwaway email. Make sure saved payment info etc is completely removed from the account. Straight sell the entire email/Mint account combo on eBay or Reddit or something? I'm sure you could get $50 easy if not $90 easily provided you picked Unlimited plan.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank Zuke76
Also, I guess there is a unwritten limit on eSIM requests. CS said I can only request 4 eSims in a 30-day period.

that's what I am doing now
Tried changing card and using incognito browser and keep receiving this error "We are unable to process your payment. Please call Customer Care at 866-995-8807 so we can help you complete your purchase".
Tried Chat support, too dumb to solve anything, just keep asking me to repeat the same process.
I suspect that it's because the previous order is stuck with my information so it won't let me create a new order, even with a new card.
Anyone here has successfully solved the issue?

The chance they've oversold these and will be cancelling a ton of orders? It's pretty high.
