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.

So I want to add a second line, but I don't have an eligible phone at the moment. Can I use my wife's galaxy s7 edge (without upsetting her ATT account) to activate it and then transfer the sim to another phone? Or could I transfer the 1st line to another phone and then use my existing iphone 6 (thats currently attached to the 1st line) to add a line? thanks

The person who referred you would have sent you a link before setting up your account. once the account is set up, you can click the link (skip the activation part) and enter your number after it is fully ported.

However, word on the street is that referrals have been 86'd from this deal now.

Anyone encounter an issue when trying to activate the S8+ with the SIM Sprint provided? I bought the S8+ unlocked (US) from Samsung.com with their $200 trade-in on any good smartphone promo in mid-June. Got my SIM and called Sprint last night. They did the credit check, checked the phone numbers and IMEI numbers. And just before finishing, got stuck at the activation step. Sprint is saying that I need to go to a Best Buy store or Sprint store to get a special SIM for the S8+. The SIM I have is able to fit into my S8+ and its the SIM with branding of Boost, Virgin, and Sprint. I was surprised that the rep explained the SIM doesn't work for the S8+ so I'm concerned that this is just taking a ton of time to get the free 1-year service.
Similar awful experience with my S8. Supposedly activated, but when inserted the SIM card, no network service. IMEI was also shorted the last digit on both phones I was planning to port, so makes me think that could be a contributor too. No resolution by calling 4! phone numbers at Sprint.

They are sending me NEW sims and I twice gave them my FULL IMEIs. They say 'everything will work' with the new ones. I am highly doubtful.

My original SIMs were 'ISIM V1' kits. Wonder if this is part of my problem.

Referrals are done online outside of the account setup/adding lines process.

Read up at the sprint referral site.

Someone gives you referral and then you need to activate promo.

Anyone figure out why a phone like Nexus 5 only works coming from ATT & Verizon when the US Nexus 5 phones are all the same? Sure enough, my Nexus 5 with a Tmobile SIM was claimed to be unusable. Would really like to keep the same number, but getting near the end of the promo to try porting the number around multiple times. Would I likely have more luck calling the promo line?
We're on the same sinking ship. A lil' info, there is no such thing as an ATT/Verizon Nexus 5. T-Mobile made a branded Nexus 5, but it is unlocked and usable at Sprint. Long story, short the incompetent, liars at Sprint will lie to you. I've been to 3 different store, live chatted & talked to 6 different reps on the phone. I've filed 2 support tickets and nothing. I think you have better chance of getting blood from a stone.

They may have just been using the MEID. The IMEI is the same as the MEID + last digit. I believe the last digit is calculated from the MEID using the Luhn algorithm.

I used a referred code but status still says verifying after 1 week. Will give it another week. But looks like the terms and conditions clearly state that 1 year free promo is not eligible. Maybe they changed this in the last few days?
