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.

lol, sold! Maybe I'll get a couple, sounds like some have more than one line. I can always put my Tello plan on hold for a year, they'll have to survive without me. I'm not surprised Sprint MVNO offers are kind of MIA with this offer from the mothership.
You get 5 lines included if they approve your credit for that much.

Tried running my IMEI on my Nexus 6 currently on Mint Sim but it didn't work. I'm guessing that means prepaid customers are out of luck.
I have the Motorola Nexus 6 too but on Tmobile prepaid so I got past the checkpoint. It must be because Mint isn't one of the carriers Sprint wants to steal customers from.

Rejected me. Because apparently I have no public records. Moved here less than a year ago from UK.

Asked if I can just show ID in store they said no I can reapply 60 days however promotion will no longer be on.

First rejection I guess lol

Quote from SamKQboro :
Anyone in the NYC area with more info on the monthly taxes and fees? The wiki seems to suggest it all over the place, from $4 to $15. Not sure if it's worth it for my usage if it's around $10.
It should be <5, people who reported $15 is more apparently 3 lines. Ensure that you have Autopay enabled.

And do take benefits of Referral

Ready move my lines from ATT, can some explain me how to maximize the referral. I just want to run the credit only one time and move all three, just do not want to have multiple hard inquiries.
Best will be for you to take a referral from a friend - open a line and than give Referral to your spouse and open two more lines in new account

What is your current carrier/MVNO?
Ever use that phone with Ring Plus, by any chance?
Sorry I didn't see the question earlier. It's Tmobile. Phone is from the Google store. Haven't used Ring Plus.

I was able to create a referral link anyway and referred my friend. Got an email from sprint that I made a referral. Let's see in a month if I get rewarded.

You figure if they change the terms that they should disable the referral program for numbers on the free plan.
Any idea if Credit Union promo of $100 will be still available for lines added as part of this promotion?

You need to check the specs and see if your specific models support LTE bands 25, 26 and 41 and Voice bands BC0 and BC10. If not, they would not work properly anyway on Sprint.

G4 at least may be ok I think.

Check all devices in the Ting MEID checker and see what it says re activation on CDMA (not GSM). If it says no, it is no go.
Great tool! Thanks

Not sure but you should just apply anyway. What's there to lose 5 minutes?

Welcome to US mate, Sprint is full of bullocks I tell you, I just trying to get inside you knickers. But really how often do UK people use bullocks and knickers slang? In almost every UK show I see them use it like Fleabag, Catastrophe, Misfits, etc.

Quote from the_slc_npl :
Phones are Galaxy S7 (unlocked version), Nexus 5 , LG tribute HD ... Used in ringplus and than is Twigby (when Twigby was offering free month of service for RP customer). After that , I cancelled service and ported to TMObile. All device show valid and free at ting and Twigby also confirmed they don't have it locked. But Sprint won't allow any of those device
Yes, they will work. Sprint has to change the PLBL flag to SPCS and add the IMEI (if it's not already on the Sprint database). For the LG Tribute HD, make sure it still clear FED. Unfortunately, not all Sprint reps know how to do it; so you may have to keep calling Sprint until you get someone who knows how to do it.

I started sprint on June 20 it has LTE since then. But start from June 30,no let,only 3g
What phone and model? Did Sprint put you on the temporary $60 plan before switching to the free plan? If no, it's most likely just poor LTE signal or hardware problem, depending on your phone.
Quote from monkeybiz :
thanks, I didn't see that in the wiki, more time to mull it over. This is some sort of epic deal but I'm still wondering if I need it. I only used a fraction of free R+ data so I'd feel obligated to use it if paying.
Buy first... decide later......
