The package i purchased from the B&M sprint store was for a Bring Your Own Device contain Sim Card SIMOLW416Q
Called for the activation, (got pass credit check), but was not able to activate using the sim. I am suppose to go back to the store and swap it out again.
Just wanted to see if there was any difference in sim card type.
whatevs, I have an LG G6 unlocked and using verizon pre-paid, that's obvs ineligible, so I bought an unlocked s8+.
I tested the eligibility checker with my old nexus 5 that I gave to my Mom, she used Cricket, I use VZW prepaid, the MEID of the Nexus 5 showed eligible with both of the numbers I put into the checker (her's and mine)
I have a 6s and it is unlocked I have used it on Verizon, tmobile, cricket, ring plus, china mobil, freedompop, tello.
1. How do I take advantage of this offer without ordering the SIM card online? I already have 2 Sprint SIM cards and would rather not order a 3rd one. The wiki says "Can pickup SIM at local Sprint store to save on $10 shipping". I thought you HAVE to order the SIM card through the offer link. And then activate through www.sprint.com/activate
2. Are big carrier MVNOs eligible? I'm currently with H2O wireless (AT&T MVNO), however a rep told me I wouldn't be eligible. This contradicts what the wiki says (per another chat). I hope someone who already activated can answer this.
3. Is there a way to tell right away if you would be granted the promo or not? I understand the Sprint bill comes after 30 days, shouldn't someone or something be able to tell though?
I was a Sprint customer for 10 years, and yes, I experienced bad customer service and terrible coverage. But I'm willing to give them another try

1) Transfer the number to Verizon, release the phone from sprint on day 1
2) Transfer the number/ service to sprint get activation etc fee refunded by verizon
on day 2
Am I missing something? Do we need to wait more then 1 day?
Even I'm coming back to Sprint after 2 years, I'm amazed by the 45 Mbps download speed in my wife's Sprint phone when compared to my 23 Mbps download speed from MintSim. This coverage/speed is in South Bay Area, CA.
To hop from VZ to T-Mobile to Sprint.
It can be done. Here are the steps:
- Existing 60-day VZ customer, financing Pixel/iPhone/etc.
- Open new T-Mobile acct Pixel promo, Port number from VZ to T-Mobile.
- Pay VZ final bill + Pixel finance balance.
- Apply T-Mobile Pixel payoff rebate.
- Start Sprint 1YR free with Pixel IMEI and different number to port-in to Sprint.
- Pay a couple of T-Mobile monthly bills.
- Receive T-Mobile rebate. (~8weeks)
- Cancel T-Mobile acct and number.
- 3 hard credit pulls. (One by Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint)
- In the end, will have 1 Pixel and 1 year of Sprint service!
Anyone brave enough to attempt this?!EDIT: "Get out of the Red" new promo has 60-day Verizon customer requirement. Does the old Pixel payoff have the same 60-day requirement? If yes, then all of this only works for 60-day+ VZ existing customers financing Pixel, iPhones, etc..
So, can we do this:
1. Signup for Verizon for 5 lines (+ buy 4 devices, 1 BYOD)
2. Within 3 days, port 1 line over to Sprint, get an account setup with 1 year free promo
3. Wait 60 days for 4 line on Verizon and then port them all over to T-Mobile
4. Let T-Mo pay off the devices after a couple months
5. Then port all 4 lines over to sprint for free service until July 2018
-- Risks / Costs:
-- T-Mobile promo should last for atleast 60 days from now
-- Pay Verizon for 4 devices for 60 days + activation fee + line access fees
-- Pay T-Mobile for 4 lines for 60 days + DPP for 4 devices
So, rough math, without taxes:
$700 devices x 4 = $2800
Out of pocket costs, roughly $200 each month for 4 lines -means it cannot exceed ~ $800.
Turns out, we get 4 new devices for $800 (and 3 credit pulls) and 5 lines of free service for almost a year.
What am I missing?
