A while ago I had written a list of all deals various carriers were offering on the newly launched iPhone SE phone but I had also made it clear that I would be not be participating in soon. Few days later a far superior deal came out from Visible, I shared it in my Deal Talk Telegram channel but never bothered to blog about it…until now.
Why now? Because semester is over so I have a little more time and as informed by a user on same chat, Visible has some stock of iPhone SE now.
What is the Deal?
- Order iPhone SE from this link and port in your order number while making the purchase. You can even port a google voice number.
- After receiving your SIM with next-day shipping, insert it into your phone.
- Download and sign in to the app. Follow the instructions to activate service.
- After two service payments you’ll get an email to redeem your $200 mastercard gift card.
The Cost of Visible Service
Normal charge is $40/month but:
- First month you get $15 discount and maybe (suhh)
- You can knock down the cost to $35/line, $30/line, or $25/line by joining a party of 2, 3 or 4 respectively. Many readers on Deal Tip channel have done this deal so you could hop in a party with them, alternatively you could also try r/VisiblePartyPay, a sub dedicated to finding you party. It is fairly easy to get into a party of 4.
Closing thoughts
Thus far this is the best deal for iPhone SE and it will likely remain the best deal for many many months. What makes this deal solid is:
- mastercard giftcard is practically cash
- no contract
- since you are buying the phone outright and initially purchasing at full price, you can file price protection later
- $25/month cost relatively cheap. It is even cheaper when combined with $20 discount from American Express Platinum card!
- Cashback portals are offering huge % on Visible. I saw 12% on Piggy and I was told Ebates was offering 15% as of few days ago.
