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 Jamesq :
bestbuy, sprint store, or apple store... apple store the sims are free.

get the sims and call the sprint number for the promo and they should be able to activate your sims for the deal.

Just a heads up. I read that Best Buy usually charges 4.99 for a sim. I got charged 10.00 and one of my sims was the wrong one and they are not refundable.

My local sprint store is giving apple sims away like candy, but did not have my sims for my two phones (moto play g4 and nexus 5x). They told me to go to a tech sprint store, and they may have them there. This was a 30 minute drive across town for me, so I just went to BB (as mentioned above).

For anyone looking to buy a sim instead of ordering online, here is a great link to learn your sprint sim part number. If your phone is on the list, you can have BB see if they have it. Sprint can see which part just using the IMEI.

Wow. Hustled around today getting my new phones activated on T-mobile but didn't make it home until 4:00 CST. Started my order for the SIM piece as soon as I got home. Really wanted to get them tomorrow (Friday) knowing it'd be Monday at the earliest otherwise. However, the cutoff according to Sprint is 2:00 EST (1:00CST). so figured I was out of luck, especially with them being bombarded over normal business and this deal. Just got my tracking numbers though and they're scheduled for Friday. I'm pretty amazed they got them out that quick. Here's hoping they sent me the right ones! haha

Quote from LParks67 :
I called and got Edina. She was super nice, patient, and apologetic that SIM was incompatible. She tried everything. Looked up my order number, verified they'd sent me the wrong SIM, escalated, asked for supervisor permission to send a new SIM...meanwhile, when I realized going nowhere, I went down half a mile to Best Buy. They said they had the right size SIM, but not for my phone. I remained on hold as Edina tried to get a replacement SIM sent to me, so Googled, found results of other people reporting what SIM they used in my device on Sprint, went back to the BB clerk, asked if they had that item number, he hunted through and found one.
...
TLDR;
I ported from Cricket using brand new Motorola G4 Play I got from Target last week and "simglw236c" I bought from Best Buy because Sprint themselves can't find any. I've logged into online account and everything seems to be in order. Bonus, I now have three Sprint Sims that are incompatible with my phone.
What SIM did they actually send you initially? I thought they were just sending everyone SIMOLW506C which is common and available most anywhere. It's a 3-in-1 universal SIM/Micro SIM/Nano SIM.

I have one line out of four that is under contract until July 2nd. All of the other lines are out of contract. The promotion is saying that line is not eligible due to it being locked. How can I get this line ported over to the sprint promotion? The termination fee is 95 dollars. If I pay that fee, will that line close on my att account? I guess I'm trying to somehow get the phone unlocked, so I can transfer it over without closing the line prior to porting.

Will I need all of the phones with me or just the sim cards and imei numbers? I'm currently out of town, so I do not have the other phones physically on me.
