Visit the deal page on a desktop browser. Also do store pick up if possible to get the phone unlocked right away otherwise you might have to wait for 35 days for unlock.
You can select new customer and pay in full to get the $480 price. You can then select simplicity plan. Once you get the phone you can just cancel the line. Verizon unlocking policy states the devices are unlocked immediately if you pay in full. Their cancellation policy states no activation fee within 3 days and then only prorated charges if you cancel your line within 30 days.
***You might have to wait for 35 days before the phone is unlocked if you don't do store pickup in person as Verizon considers their online store purchase with delivery not secure. You can cancel your line nonetheless as the device will still unlock automatically after 35 days****

See this thread for more details on Verizon line activation and cancellation. Make sure to open a regular account with Verizon first with email address and passwd. Then add the new line in that account. That allows you to track the cancellation and bill through that account even after the line is removed.

Community Reviews
This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly attractive as an upfront discount on a new-line purchase, with store pickup often reported as the smoothest path. The phone is generally carrier unlocked after activation or pickup, and Google Fi or other non Verizon eSIM tests are the usual way to confirm it. The biggest caveat is Verizon's confusing unlock and cancellation behavior, with some orders unlocking immediately and others showing a 35 day wait or needing support. Billing can also be messy, with prorated charges, full month bills, and possible cashback timing issues to watch.
Buyers who want a cheaper unlocked Pixel and can use in-store pickup, because pickup cases repeatedly showed the phone unlocked right away and avoided the 35-day wait.
People who plan to use the phone on another carrier after setup, because the device can work with Google Fi or T-Mobile once it is unlocked.
Shoppers comfortable activating a new line briefly, because the phone can be verified unlocked and the line canceled the same day with only prorated service charges.
People who want a Pixel 11 Pro for everyday Android use, because it ships with a clean OS and regular updates without needing custom ROMs.
Buyers who need immediate eSIM flexibility on day one, because shipped units can stay locked for days or require Verizon support before another carrier eSIM will work.
People who want to install custom ROMs or degoogle the phone, because Verizon units have a permanently locked bootloader.
Shoppers who do not want to manage Verizon billing follow-up, because full-month bills, prorated adjustments, and chat-based waivers can still be needed after cancellation.
People who need a simple no-hassle purchase, because the checkout and unlock flow can involve credit checks, payment verification, and repeated order failures.

For the pro, it looks like it expired.
I had the phones in cart before it expired and I was able to go through with the checkout.
Guess I'll see if the $600 x 4 sticks.
Mine just shows the "unit price" (retail price) bit the sub-total is right.

Interesting, did you transfer to T-Mobile before you even booted the phone up, or after you turned it on?
After turned on the phone it automatically activated the Verizon line then I went to mobile settings add esim and transferred my T-Mobile line from another phone without issues.
Then chatted with Verizon experts and cancelled service immediately same day without problems!!
For those that uses the c1 cb, how long did it take for it to track on the c1 dashboard?
I had a weird billing thing where chase declined my order and I had to approve and submit the order again.
Then I got another chase email asking to verify it was a known transaction and Verizon emailed saying the payment was declined.
Then I got a totally different (lower) payment.
So a little anxious something got broken here and c1 is not going to track this
