I made an order with tracfone port in. Cricket only asked the account information and port doesn't work. Will circket ship the phone and I can update the port information when activating? Or cricket will cancel the order?

After 3 months if you are on a group save plan, can you add this phone to replace a phone on the group save?

Ordered one last week for $191 w/ tax (couldn't get extra discount for waiting in cart) -- used family member's Visible number for porting

Chase Ink Cash did give 5% c/b on it ($9.xx)

Got targeted offer by email from an online cash back portal (will see if that comes in a few months)

Activated service yesterday and kept eSIM on there overnight -- earlier today did an eSIM transfer to an existing iPhone to free up the Cricket iPhone 16e

Left the phone on iOS 26.5 and did a factory reset -- took the phone to Apple Store in the afternoon and traded it in for a $310 GC without issue

You know when you go in store the deal is better, only one month upfront and device cost is not too much 29-79 bucks. Activation 25 though
$29-$79 ?
Compare the cost to this deal specifically, the 16e; was it $29 or $79?

$165-79-25=$61.00 Savings over the posted deal but 1mo service instead of 3

It'd be worth going to a store for $111 savings on the posted deal

No calling, just logged into my account online and you got account and port out in the transfer tab, that part was smooth sailing
Were you talking about lycamobile.us or some other portal? I'm also tortured by it. Cuz I didn't see "transfer tab"
