S25 FE last year was $100, hope they can do that again for S26 FE soon.
Btw, an rare issue I had with my S25 FE. I left it in drawer for 9 months with it turned off, but after that I couldn't turn it on even leaving it charged on 25W USB for hours. Luckily, Samsung was able to fix it under warranty, but they also changed the motherboard, which altered the EID number. It's a pain to use eSIM after that as the EID doesn't match what carriers have in their system after giving them the IMEI number, it also affect the unlock, so I couldn't unlock it after one year. I ended up just trading in that phone, didn't even get a chance to use it.

We can use some cashback websites, but the chase offer is expired 9/30.

Did you still pay monthly fee for the phone service?

I dont understand, why does this say $150? Isn't it closer to $210? How do I get the $150 price?

What happens to my credit if I sign up, pay the $210, and cancel after? Do I get blocked from doing this again from Metro? I have a Tmobile account so I assume the phone will work on that account.

First. It's prepaid. No credit check. 2nd Metro has some internal limit based on address/name but IDK specifics it's way more generous than you'd think and probably resets every year/etc.

As for TMO? Metro eSim device orders you MAY be able to bypass the 12 month unlock requirement if you put a physical SIM inside the device (with whatever carrier you want) before turning it on and activating the eSim service. Though the chance it'll be permanently locked to whatever that physical SIM carrier is? Pretty high.

If you do normal esim activation, you'll have to just wait 365 days until you can use the device on any other provider besides Metro. Yes that includes other Tmo network providers including TMO postpaid directly.

another port in scam, Metro will only process the order if they think you are really "new", or the order would never go through, their reps hang up on you..
