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.

I haven't read the 5000 comments, but I have a question for Verizon customers looking to re-negotiate their contract. (I live in the sticks, so using Sprint is not an option -- there's no service except right in town).

I pay 67.80 for unlimited talk & text and 2 gigs. (I have an iPhone 6sPlus) on a single line. The plan I'm on is listed as the Loyalty Program. I'm on a contract until October (because I bought my phone through Verizon). ETF (early termination fee) will be about $125 if I cancel in the middle of July.

I called Verizon saying I'm considering jumping ship for this incredible deal. They would not haggle on my deal (they offered to give me 5 gigs for $78).

I'm sick of paying so much. My question for all you veteran pros of the cell contract game is this:
Are there any tactics I can use to find a way to either a lower per-month cost or more gigs for the same price?

My only plan now is to go though the motions of making the switch to Sprint right to the very last step to see if someone at Verizon will sweeten my current deal.

btw, AT&T and T-mobile have pretty bad reception here and so aren't options.

It's all a game. I hate spending $815/year for cell service. Any informed suggestions would be welcome. thanks

Sounds like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place. With verizon being your only viable option, I would take a look at verizon MVNO's. A good place to compare and learn is here [prepaidphonenews.com] Good luck

Bestblackfriday.com claims that 77% of 2016 Prime Day prices were better than Black Friday; not sure if it's fake news, but Prime is Prime, just don't expect prime rib all day Big Grin

What is history of your account? What is the history of your Moto G4? What is your problem?

You can try but the end result is they will either cancel the order or put you on a new paid plan.

put him on new paid plan for 4th line only or you think all first 3 lines will also convert from free plan to paid plan?

I just noticed that the SIM card I gave you is different than
Svsfan. I listed SIMOLW416Q while he listed SIMGLW416Q
I believe the G cards are made by Gemalto and O cards are made by Oberthur.
The Oberthur cards I believe are packaged sims. If you can find either ending LW416Q they should work.
Ting shows the SIMGLW416Q as compatible and the SIMOLW416Q is available at sprint.
Not sure what Best Buy has.
https://m.sprint.com/shop/mobile/...=112200916 [sprint.com]
Best Buy sells SIMOLW416Q. They do not have SIMGLW416Q.

I went to three BB's in the Seattle area with family looking for non-phone items. Just out of curiosity, I inquired about the SIM. All three BB's have SIMOLW416Q. None of them has SIMGLW416Q. Price is $2.18 plus tax. I bought a few for my own experiments.

It is exactly identical to the one sold on Sprint's site as shown on your post.

The item description on the receipt is "SAMSUNG NOTE7 SIM CARD". Yes, it is for the now-defunct NOTE 7 as well.

Maybe you can use it on the Fandom Edition after the FE is released on July 7.
