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.

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.

WHAT?
I am correct. The only way to have simultaneous voice-data on Verizon is if the call is a VoLTE call. You cannot have simultaneous voice-data if the call is a CDMA call even on Verizon due to the RF circuitry issues I stated earlier.

Of course, none of this applies to GSM carriers.

You need to read up on this since you are confused.

What is the cheapest pre-paid to get on this deal? I've read back quite a few pages and it's mostly mumbo jumbo.

How long did it take after the referral to get the credit? Thanks.
It takes 31 from account opening for sprint to verify then 1-2 weeks to receive the cards. That was my experience a couple months ago

Prepaid? None. Check the list of eligible devices. Then check out the Moto E4. If you mean cheapest to Port from, freedompop will work.

Bought unlocked Moto G4 Play from best buy via the Refurb + Simple Mobile sim $50 discount deal...checking eligibility says "Ineligible, this phone does not qualify for this offer"...Phone number is active AT&T number.

Anyone have any insights?

IMEI on swappa shows below:

This device does not appear to be globally blacklisted.

Activation Status Clear

Is it possible to port in someone else's number on my account as the first line?
If you have their account number and PIN from their provider you can. You do not need to be the account owner of the lines you are porting in but you do need the account number and PIN of the account they are coming from.

And of course the IMEI of an eligible device as well as a compatible Sprint SIM.

Is there a way to activate the lines without having phones in hand?
No of course not, you need an eligible device that is not currently active on the Sprint network to open a line. And of course a compatible Sprint SIM card if the phone is a 4G LTE phone.

My two Verizon moto g4 plays are also showing ineligible. They actually show up as "lost or stolen" by sprint but not by Verizon...is it sprint's way of saying it's not compatible?

You think best buy needs to scan or activate or something at time of sale? Like iTunes gift cards on supermarkets have no value until scanned during checkout

I have a 4G/LTE phone: Moto E (2nd Gen) released from RingPlus...a while back.
DO you think it will work?
