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.

Just my luck my rep signed me up for some stupid $45 plan with 2GB of data and I'm on the phone with several reps who don't know the the hell they're doing !
Yep blame the rep, you are probably not calling the right number 866-782-8777 on the front page, if you dont know what you are doing just apply it online and make your life easier.

thank you!! still no help with sprint!! they keep told me i will get my credit back or there is no such thing as the free plan.
It's $5 a month less $5 discount with autopay. The phone rep was also nice enough to not charge me activation fee for my 3 lines.

Quote from vaca_loca :
For anyone curious, I have a Pixel XL, whose number I ported from Project Fi to Google Voice (GV). This took about a day (~24 hours) and I had Fi service right until the port occurred.

Instead of porting the now GV number to Sprint and then having to port out in a year, I think I'll leave my main number on GV and use the GV app in order to make outgoing calls using my GV number routed through Sprint's cellular service. That way I can still txt from other devices (PCs, etc) using that same GV number. For incoming calls, I'll forward GV to the new number ported from either T-Mobile or AT&T to Sprint.

I have both AT&T and T-mobile prepaid SIMs, now have to debate which of the two to use to activate the new number that I will port over to Sprint. Which one is easier/faster/cheaper to port out from?
Just use Hangouts instead for calls/texts. No need to bother forwarding numbers.

I did call the right number thank you very much. If you don't know what you're talking about, don't quote people and run your mouth.

it's a Boost Mobile iPhone 6, so it's the reception here. It's alright.
Quote from edog11 :
Sorry to hear that. Depending on your iphone 6 model you may be missing sprint spark band 41. With that said, you should be getting speeds better than that.

You're correct that calls/txts can work on Hangouts (although Hangouts eventually will be phased out into Google Voice itself). Calls on Hangouts only work if you have WiFi or cell data service. If data service is spotty or non-existent, the GV app allows calling via a gateway number that shows your GV number as the # you're calling from, routing the call via Sprint's cell service.

This is for the case of porting a new prepaid number, instead of porting the same number I now have on GV to Sprint Smilie

The pretty much sum up my experience, the Sprint rep keep repeating the Plan 5 dollar and free after auto pay like 20 times, so as I see it no one could screw up if they ever pay attention to what the rep are saying. I guess you are the unlucky one who got the bad rep then. Tough luckwave

I called the 8777 number and they sent me SIM cards with the packing slip and paper advertising the Free Unlimited plan with instructions on how to activate for whether you ordered online or via calling they're number. The rep even asked me if I already had an unactivated SIM I could use that one, but I didn't. If you get a rep that doesn't know what they're doing, hang up and find another.

Seeing as though my rep repeated that 100 times and still signed me up for the WRONG plan has nothing to do with me. Have a good day. Biggrin2

Yes, call the 8777 number ONLY! You may want to get some SIM cards from the store unless you don't mind paying shipping before you call. They'll activate a BYOD Sprint SIM over the phone.

i saw ur pm.

i am sad to say, u have created quite a mess for yourself.

u are not following even the basic principles required to get this deal.

1. new customer.
u are a current customer and u cannot create another account in your spouses name for reasosn u have identified

2. need a eligible phone.
u dont have one. it is somehwre overseas.
also, IIRC, u need to leave the phone on the account for 120 days
(i am nt sure, havent followed up on all the details of tha one yet)

3. u need to port a number.
i am not even sure what u have done here..u had 1 number u wanted to port, but then change ur mind and ported in another number before completing the order, but then somehow sprint got the 1st number as being ported .. ( which is highly unlikely because they ported the number that only u can give them)

i dont think i will be of any help.

perhaps if u want post ur questions here..someone may help u




look , u win some u loose some...given the fact u cannot create another account..is not helping ur cause.

dont feel u r entitled to this or any deal for that matter...life happens....move on..
thanks.. i talked with sprint care on that number mentioned on first page...

1. they told i can open another account even if i have existing sprint account as long as there are no issues with current account....

2. what is the condition to keep phone active for 120 days?

3. for the 3rd point you mixed two questions... that porting issue was regarding LG G6 offer on that thread Smilie

thank you for time

They kept repeating the right plan so I thought everything was going well, after speaking with a competent rep (which some people in this thread think they are laugh out loud ) they said this was a temporary plan put in place for whatever reason and should change by the time I receive my first bill.
