撸手机之降低套餐成本,total,straight talk rebrand to tracfone

本文是为了用最便宜的plan激活无plan手机,从而能60天后解锁,如果已经买了plan,或者如果手机是为了直接trade in,就不用看了。

比如这个无plan pixel 6a: 继直说se3后,直说pixel 6a $99.88也上线Walmart了,但建议直说官网下单[官网已变成$199]
当买了total by Verizon,或者straight talk 然后没有购买plan,需要先激活才能60天后自动解锁,而这两个公司最便宜的plan是30/35,而他们的爸爸公司tracfone有10刀的套餐。

选择 New Phone One you’ve purchased through Tracfone.

先去tracfone官网点击activate,输入imei,如果没有报错,恭喜,直接买plan激活就行,直接跳过rebrand。

Rebrand:

如果遇到错误_ERR_MSG_FWA_BRAND,说明需要rebrand,online chat agent(chrome浏览器看不见chat的红色按钮。。。)
和agent说要rebrand,很多agent会说不可以,HUCA,直到找到 愿意帮你的。
给IMEI,SimID,一定要用和手机一起来的sim卡,因为sim 和 imei是绑定的
等agent搞定,开始activate.

Activate:
New Phone One you’ve purchased through Tracfone.
New number, physical sim
选择15(with-5 enroll autofill)的套餐,所以第一个月是10+tax。理论上不用续费第二个月就能解锁。
text “unlock” to 611611 twice

60天后如果没有自动解锁,在这个提交解锁申请

补充:
walmart买可能遇到出库没扫码的问题:

解决方法:先去对应牌子的官网找客服提ticket
详细步骤

  1. Go to the website corresponding to your service brand (so if you bought the Straight Talk version, go to Straight Talk, not TracFone).
  2. Click activate and select new line with a physical SIM (each phone should come pre-installed with a physical TracFone SIM).
  3. You will reach a step asking for your IMEI number. If this step gives you an error, keep reading. If this step passes and it asks for your SIM number, then skip ahead to step 8.
  4. Open a support chat window (or call) and tell them that it’s giving you an error on the IMEI step. They will check and they will tell you that Wal-Mart farked up, and they will tell you to get the phone rescanned at the store. They should also offer you a second option, where you send them proof of purchase and they fix the problem from their end in 1-2 business days. If they don’t give you this option, ask for it.
  5. The support agent will create a ticket number and give you an e-mail address ([email protected]) to mail the requested information (ticket number, contact information, IMEI number, proof of purchase, and photos of the bar codes on the back of the box).
  6. After sending in this information, you should get a reply in 1-2 business days saying that you can now activate your phone.

以及理论上可以通过upgrade,不购买第二个plan,解锁第二个手机,等待大家测试

update: 感谢dp,已经有tracfone可以用现有套餐激活。现在唯一的问题是如果有两台,并且第一个手机还没解锁,60天后还能不能解锁。

我有个极端的case,我有一台se, 最早激活了,但是upgrade到了另一台se(激活了另一台se)
那么现在旧的se算激活了还是没激活?需要买plan吗?无服务状态

这个是由于今年se研究出的新情况
我建议你持有它六十天看看 :troll:
我估计Se trade in 价值暂时不会变。。。

嗯,我目前也是这么打算,先等等看,60天后没解锁再买plan
我都是自用,根本没想靠这个赚钱

不太清楚诶,激活后到60天了吗?要不要插一张卡试试

还没有,刚买没几天,明年再说了

不要继续上套餐了
如果到期不解
我估计就无解了

我翻车了、target买的total手机没有带卡、我去tracfone激活报错、然后找了total客服、给上了esim,发unlock到611显示的是Boyd,大佬怎么解决呀、找客服、客服说找苹果解锁、找了苹果、苹果说只能找运营商、

Thanks for sharing!

基本没救了,尽早退货重买吧

没带卡不知道诶,因为simid 和 imei是绑定的,激活必须一起,没遇到过您的这个情况。

还是这样靠谱一点


我显示这个是不是也不行?

activation那里选new phone还是keep your own phone?

是否有tracfone卡?如果有的话,直接插进去用,应该也是可以激活的。

Tracfone买了套餐之后,cancel自动续费,会问问题,cancel和时间。这个该怎么回答。

还有这样的事情?随便回答就好了,你的自由

Walmart买的Straight talk的iPhone12

new phone,imei输进去报错就找agent rebrand

找客服rebrand了。没找我要sim ID。现在active没有报错了。之后我需要选I’ve already purchased a plan card对吧?
