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.

Thanks for your reply. If it's not possible to get this sprint offer while I'm active on Ting, could you please advise on the options for the cheaper and safer way to port out from Ting and then port into sprint for this deal? Do I have enough time to complete this before June 30?

I saw an earlier post (post #1710) saying something about ATT BYOD SIM for $10 from Walmart, but I did a search on walmart.com but couldn't find the ATT BYOD SIM $10...

Please advise, thank you.
I am with Tello (another Sprint MVNO), this is what I did
1. Order a ATT gophone sim online from att for $1.7, signup for the 0.25 plan,
(3 days to receive sim)
2. port the tello number to ATT, make sure number is ported and activate on ATT
3. Refill account with $10 (min refill amount is $10)
4. Call ATT and get the account number

Then you are ready.

Note 1. Tello took a while to release the phone my number from their system, so there might be delay

The total cost is 12 + tax.

Hi, has anyone successfully gotten this deal from another Sprint MVNO? Specifically, is it possible to get this deal from Ting (while your device and phone number are active on Ting)? If so, how?

I have Verizon iPhone 6s. It was with Verizon first, then RingPlus, and then it IS CURRENTLY ACTIVE on Ting. I tried the checker for this deal, entered the IMEI (and MEID) and Ting phone #, and it said the phone is not eligible.

Supposedly Verizon iPhones are all unlocked (thus mine should be too), and iPhone 6s is on the eligible device list for this deal.

As suggested by the SDer "ultrasoul", I can find a dummy esn and tell Ting to release my iphone esn and replace it with the dummy one. Has anyone done this successfully and could advise how to do this? Also, by doing this, how would I be able to keep my Ting phone number and port it to sprint for this 1-year free service?

I'd really appreciate help and advice on how to get this deal from Ting (active device/service on Ting). Thank you.
You can't port your number in from a Sprint MVNO like Ting. My solution was for someone who wanted to release their iPhone eligible ESN and wanted to port over a dummy number from a non-Sprint carrier

Has anyone from CO joined this deal. If so, whats the monthly total fee?
Also, can you port a different number after 6/30. I would like to use a temporary number to start with, check the coverage and then move my primary number to this line (dont want to add another line but just change numbers). Is this possible without losing the free 1 yr service?

There are plenty of options clearly spelled out in this thread. Feel free to try any. The safest (but not cheapest) way is to open a line with a postpaid carrier and port there. The cheapest (but maybe not safest) way is to port to a prepaid carrier and hope Sprint still honors the deal.

You have to make these types of decisions and weigh the risks yourself. Good luck!

Yeah, some of the questions in this thread are pretty funny.

How about just trying to get the miles, and if it doesn't work, oh well? It's not like it takes any effort to try.

Make a call and talk to a rep, they wont eat you up.

And why are people complaining the UI when they offer you free service, seriously if you want nicer UI experience, you can signup to any carrier which have your prefer UI.

You could also move your primary number to GV for $20 and have the calls forwarded to your new number.

Omg..just spend 2 hours with sprint to have this set up. I hung up when they wanted to do the credit check for the 3rd time! God forbid you're on Sprint and you have to call sprint to resolve an issue.

Just ported in a 2nd number over the phone, and the rep read out, and I agreed to the terms that were clearly for the free BYOD plan. Checked my account, and they put the 2nd number on the $65 plan. Pissed.

At what stage of the process were you? Were you trying to order SIMs, or did you already receive them and were trying to port over your lines?

Thanks.

Finally got my statement. My first bill is $2.53. They charged state tax on the admin fee plus other fee ($2.39) not the pre bill adjustment.

My upgrade eligibility date on my Bring Your Device account shows 06/01/2019 instead of 10/1/2017. What does it show on yours?

Same problem. Did you figure out how to solve it?

In chat now. I only agreed to the terms for the free BYOD plan. The rep clearly read out the terms for the free BYOD plan and stated it would be $5 a month without Auto-pay turned on, and that the promotion was active until 7/31/2018. I will have them check the call recording if they refuse to honor it.
