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.

It is still not worth the effort of dealing with Verizon customer support in my opinion. What if its not unlocked after 35 days. We will have to spend hours talking to the support again.
I'll most probably visit a nearby store, return the device and also cancel the line.
Bought online with in-store pickup. Activated the line with Verizon (ensure I get C1) and showed unlocked on Verizon the first time I checked that day.

by credit, I meant a negative bill would come and you will either get a check or paid back to the payment card.
Would it be on the verizon account page somewhere?

2. Tap Network & internet.
3. Tap SIMs and choose your primary SIM card.
4. Turn off Automatically select network.
5. Wait for the phone to search for available networks.
• Unlocked: A list of multiple carrier networks appears.
• Locked: Only your current carrier appears, or you get a restricted list
I did that and on my verzion account I went to the chat bot asked it if my phone was unlocked and it was.
