Guess they are finally valuing their service quality at zero dollars!! Having unfortunate experience of being a sprint customer, I wholeheartedly concur with the valuation of their service.
Can I cancel after the first year?
Hi! I have ten specific questions that only pertain to my individual circumstances. I epitomize laziness and my sense of entitlement is impervious to reason. Therefore it is the responsibility of anyone and everyone who reads this to find the answers to my questions.

WOW. Did not see that coming! Aside from postpaid net adds what do they gain from this? This will just add congestion to their faltering speeds in a lot of markets they're already lagging behind the Big 3. Seems a like they're trying to boost their numbers prepping for a takeover.

Quote from cashville619 :
Here's the "fee" breakdown, so not quite free, but almost...
To take advantage of these great savings and have your phone work on the Sprint network, we'll send you a Sprint SIM card for each eligible phone.

Your next steps:

You'll set up your account and pay $2.99 per SIM card, plus taxes and $10 for overnight shipping
You'll also agree to automatically pay monthly taxes and fees (including a $1.99/mo./line admin fee)
On your bill, you will see a plan charge of $5/mo. and a -$5/mo. credit for AutoPay
We'll send the SIM(s), tell you how to activate it, and switch your number to Sprint
Activate your SIM and get 1 year FREE Unlimited talk, text and data on the Sprint Unlimited – Bring Your Own Phone plan
Can one bring their own sims, free from Apple Store?

Agreed, 1 year is a long time to give all services free, and there's zero incentive for people to stay with sprint after that point. Maybe ringplus' scamminess rubbed off on sprint? laugh out loud

Tried running my IMEI on my Nexus 6 currently on Mint Sim but it didn't work. I'm guessing that means prepaid customers are out of luck.

Threw a Verizon Prepaid G4 Play IMEI on the site to check eligibility, it failed. I suspect Sprint wouldn't pay anything for it as 'credit' to get a new phone. Oh well.

I'd like to try this but, if I bring one of my T-Mobile lines, I'm pretty sure I'd lose the free line promo, right?
