Tracfone will not unlock a phone until 60 days after it is activated[1]. Oh, and if you use it on T-Mobile or AT&T's network (instead of Verizon), it's actually 12 months. While this is certainly cheaper than a full price iPhone SE, it is not even close to a "$100 iPhone" - it's a "somewhere between $200-$300 iPhone", depending on which network you use and how you quantify the cost of being unable to switch. 1: https://www.tfwunlockpolicy.com/wps/portal/home/!ut/p/a1/04_Sj9CPykssy0xPLMnMz0vMAfGjzOK9LV0tDC0NDL39zX1NDBxDHb2dnLy9DAwMzPXD9aPASgxwAEcD_eDUPP2C7LxyAP8WlbU!/ https://www.tfwunlockpolicy.com/wps/portal/home/!ut/p/a1/04_...

Yes, as I already said that requires buying 2 months service which will be somewhere between $15-30 total, but Tracfone is a good carrier on the Verizon network with no contracts and incredibly low prices- so it's somewhat hard for me to see that as an extra expense if you need service anyways. I think I was previously paying about $8/month for them, but switched to another cheap carrier that includes unlimited data. You can get a Tracfone SE for $100- I've seen them that cheap on the website, in person in box stores, and on eBay, but you have to hunt around. It would be $219 total right now for an SE3 and 2 months service on the website.
