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****

Community Reviews
This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly about getting a flagship Pixel at a steep upfront discount, with the best value coming from store pickup, activation, and then canceling the line after verifying unlock status. The phone can work with other carriers like Google Fi, Mint, T Mobile, or Xfinity once unlocked, and the account often shows it as paid in full. The main catch is Verizon's confusing unlock behavior, since shipped orders sometimes stay locked for days or 35 days, and the bootloader remains permanently locked. Cancellation can also trigger full month bills or bill adjustments that may need chat support.
Store pickup can lead to immediate Verizon unlocking after activation, which enables quick eSIM testing and same-day cancellation.
Verizon account status can show the Pixel as paid off and unlocked, and some flows confirm unlock via Google Fi eSIM trial.
Some buyers report only prorated service charges after canceling soon after activation, with chat support confirming disconnect details.
The deal can work smoothly when the checkout discount applies and the phone is activated and verified before canceling.
Verizon Pixels can have permanently locked bootloaders, which can block custom ROM installs like LineageOS or GrapheneOS.
Unlock timing can be inconsistent, with some shipped units staying locked and requiring unlock requests, escalation, or waiting periods.
Canceling the Verizon line can still trigger full-month billing or additional bills that require follow-up chats to waive charges.
eSIM setup can fail or redirect to "Contact Verizon," and some users report backend sync issues even when the Verizon account shows paid-off status.
