It’s the sim card that’s the problem. if you pay for your service with VISA, it’s not anonymous.

As I mentioned in my original comment…. It’s specifically a visa gift card.

Which you get by paying cash and reload by paying cash, with no information given. Verizon just goes you the sSIM card when you set up on their service. (And the only real reason to do that is so I don’t have to go into their stores all the time.)
