Community Reviews

This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly about getting a heavily discounted flagship and then verifying carrier unlock after activation. The strongest upside is the low out of pocket price, with store pickup and immediate activation often leading to an unlocked phone that works with Google Fi, Mint, T Mobile, or other eSIMs. The main catch is Verizon's confusing unlock behavior, since some units stay locked for hours or days and the bootloader remains permanently locked. Cancellation usually needs chat or phone support, and full month bills or prorated charge adjustments can take follow up.

Do I have to activate the phone using the number I provide during the online purchase, or can I just put my number in there for purchasing only and cancel the plan due to "no service in area" without activating the phone?

You can select a new number during order and then activate it on thSt number. You are going to cancel anyway.

No it's not back. I assume he means he ordered before or it may have shown him that the cb was still activated in the c1 extension.

I'm on a solo plan and free to hop networks. I picked one up, moving from Cricket. About $200 under the used price for the pixel 11 pro and only a bit more than used pixel 10 pros. Good price!

How do you get to chat with agents to cancel? Always says there is no free agent online. Also, what was the CB deal?

You can call if chat is not available but if you wait a bit they should be available on chat as well. CB deal is from some company which cant be mentioned here

Make sure the line is disconnected right away, you do need to pay prorated charges for a day and Yeah same site for CB and I also saw only $150.

Thinking of keeping the line until the cashback comes through, but mine is at $45 per month since I didnt transfer in a phone number. I think it was $35/month without the phone number. It seems like it should be a one time fee, not an increase in monthly cost...

You can port a throwaway number from Google voice etc?
