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.

while you can suspend with reduced billing after 45 days on Verizon.
You can only SWRB on Verizon for 90 days per year.

In step 1, can you port out at any time or do you have to stay with VZ for a number of days?
TMobile won't reimburse you for your Verizon DPP unless the Verizon DPP is at least 60 days old. And the TMobile #GetOutoftheRed promo can end at any time.

Don't you have to remain a customer for a certain number of days and do a new credit check each time?
The Verizon DPP must be 60 days old for TMobile to reimburse it. If you switch to TMobile for #GetOutoftheRed it is a hard pull.

If you port back to Verizon within the Winback period of 45 days (it may be as long as 50 days, I can't remember), there is no credit check. However, you must stay with Verizon for 6 months or they will chargeback the $200 Winback credit/$200 VISA. The Sprint free line promo will expire long before that unless they keep extending it.

I'm aware. They extended it the last time through the end of July though too. Desperate times call for desperate measures I guess.

You can sign up and have two simultaneous accounts with your two pixels. Just need another number like GV to port in.

You'd probably end up paying sprint about $6 a month for two lines.

Possibly. We'll see after the 45 days is up.
If you are waiting for the VISA, I can assure you that it takes longer than 45 days. It takes a minimum of 45 days for the VISA to be approved, then it gets sent to citibank (now wirecard) for processing. They take about another week to 10 days to mail the card and then about another 5 days or so before you get it. So minimum amount of time is 8 weeks and that is if everything goes as quick as possible with no screw ups.

I just did the iP6/6s promo and for one line ported in at the end of April, I just got the VISA last week and had to make about 3 phone calls to get it escalated. So that one took 12 weeks. The others took between 9 and 10 weeks.

I wouldn't bother with hodaddy, he used to make the same ignorant posts in the old RingPlus threads that he does here. Classic troll.

Back to the deal....Has anyone had issue with your data usage not posting correctly. I've used about 2GB, but report 0.00026GB.

If you use a family member's 'eligible' Verizon iPhone 5S IMEI as a placeholder so you swap it later with another phone, does that affect their Verizon service in any way?

Asking because I learned in another question that you can not use their Phone number as placeholder, That terminates their service.

Thanks

Yep, grumpy old retired men with nothing to do all day but bother their wives so they come here when their wives threaten divorce and take their anger and disappointment with their lives out on strangers, lol!

Sprint's and Verizon's networks are completely separate so there is no effect at all having the same phone on both a Sprint and a Verizon line. The phone can only work on 1 network at a time though, obviously because it can only have 1 SIM in it at a time.
