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.

Quote from AlexS2465 :
I doubt you'll find new postpaid phone that's also unlocked at that price range. I tried used Verizon's 5C and 5S I had and they went through, but if you buy prepaid versions which are cheaper good luck since they won't go through most likely.
Thanks AlexS
I sort of figured if I bought one from BB/Walmart it might not work, so I was wondering if other brave adventures could report back what BB/Walmart phone would work.

I'm sure others are also trying to figure out cheap way to buy New unlocked or easily unlocked phone cheap that works. I say this also because many people have tried phones that are on the list and it didn't work for them. It is confusing and was hoping to figure out simple solution.

Thanks. I wonder why mine are failing. All unlocked postpaid Verizon that I fully paid off over a year ago. I have a huge pile of SE's, plus a few 7 Plus, a few 6's and a few 6'S's. All Verizon. Guess I will keep plugging away. Thanks again for your reply.

Update: Got an SE with a Cricket number to work! It took several tries with same IMEI though
Glad to hear it eventually worked for you. What are you doing with these all phones? (just collecting the dust on the table) Embarrassment

I remembered you once said nothing would stop you from getting phone deals but that's wayyyyyy toooooooooooo muchhhhhhh

Not according to the fine print.

" Req. AutoPay, eBill, and port-in from postpaid carrier"
You are right is says postpaid only. I missed that. I am going to port to Verizon today then port over to sprint when my SIM cards arrive. Sprint can decide not to honor the promotion otherwise. Verizon will refund activation fees within 3 days of account opening.

Would recommend switching to postpaid provider before activating/porting to sprint.

Checking eligibility does not check what carrier you are on currently. Only checks if it is associated with a sprint or sprint associated service. They can still deny your credits once they start the porting process and see you are not porting from a postpaid plan. Prepaid and postpaid are likely codes differently.

Don't listen to sprint customer service or any customer service for that matter. The only thing you can rely on is the actual offer wording and in this case it is pretty clear.

I'm have MintSim as well with a Moto X Pure and it worked for me. Maybe a typo?
I'm thinking that maybe mine got kicked out because I was on Ringplus before MintSim. I'm thinking maybe my IMEI never got released.

You would need to reassign it online or call/chat with customer service to swap devices.

Sprint in the MSP metro is great... data can have issues downtown sometimes, but otherwise all over the metro is no problem.

Ting has the most obnoxious customer service reps. The company claims to give the best customer service experience but it's a complete hypocrisy! Port out your Ting numbers before you need to deal with them!!

unfortunately I'm not a T-Mobile customer so I'm guessing they won't do this for me.

I wasn't a tmobile customer either, but I just went online and filled out the imei #, email address, and that pretty much it. and they email you with the unlock code. your phone need to be all paid off though.
