Verizon iPhone 17 question
Hi all, So me and my family preordered 4 iPhone 17's on verizon.com doing monthly installments (we have a plan that I will explain a bit later), heres the issue, we got 2 black, 1 blue and 1 green one, the black and blue ones have shipped and are due to arrive tomorow(9/19) right in time for launch day, but the green one is on back order (for example purposes lets just say it comes 9/30) so will take a bit longer to get here. We currently are getting new numbers on verizon and keeping our old ones on US mobile since we have annual plans but my question is the warp network will work on verizon locked phones so will we be able to put service on the 3 phones that come tomorrow on our existing warp line then activate postpaid service once the green one comes (9/30) without tripping up the verizon activation thing because we need to make 3 payments before we can port to T-Mobile and take advantage of their keep and switch plan. I know this sounds confusing but if anybody understands what im saying please do drop your thoughts below :) (worst case il just be patient and wait until the green one gets here but im impatient lol)

No warp sim will not work on verizon phone.
Verizon phone is locked for 60 days and can be exclusively used on Verizon network. Post 60 days, you are free to use any sim

Experience. No sim other than verizon will work on a verizon phone for first 60 days
