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.

Do I have to buy the SIM card online or can I go to the stores and buy one? I was chatting with a Sprint rep online and she said I would have to buy it online.

Most stores won't sell you one because they lose commissions. Best Buy sells a Boost BYOD kit that works with most phones or you can ask their mobile department for one for $5. Otherwise the safest bet is ordering online.

btw, is sprint's website like the crappest of all time? is there a way to get rid of that 2-factor authentication crap? and does the site work better on certain browsers?
It's crappy like that, constantly having to login again and again.

If I get one then, I can just call the number listed in the Wiki and get the promotion that way right? I'm concerned about the shipping. I've been waiting on a freedompop sim card for a month now but I'm about to leave for vacation and won't have service on this unlocked phone that I got from Amazon prime day...

Yeah, if you get a Sim in hand, just call and activate. I ordered online and the sim came the next day.

so 2 weeks ago I got in on the iPhone se deal, and the galsexy s7 edge. Thinking that I could use that phone to switch to sprint for free.

I ported out the s7 edge. but when I check on the switch to sprint website I still get a message saying the phone wont work. any help?
has it ever shown as eligible on the website? maybe not "special edition" / unlocked?

i would try best buy in the mobile dept. mine just handed me a sprint sim when i asked nicely but YMMV. make sure you ask for the specific one that fits your phone.

AT&T's is worse. Verizon's is the best, followed by Tmobile then Sprint. AT&T's is awful.
Speak for yourself. I live in DC metro Area and AT&T is on par with Verizon here. I just switched to sprint for this deal from AT&T and the data speeds are way too low compared to what I was getting with AT&T. I won't complain for $5 per month service but once they switch to $55 per month I will take my number back to AT&T.

If you have a Sprint corporate store nearby , you can get it free.

Since trying this out, my experience with Sprint is to the point of being unbearable. I think I'm switching back. They capped my domestic roaming data even though there is no mention of what that alottment is on their website (from what I've found) or over the phone with their reps.

Evidently, did not matter that he owes $200 on the IPhone 6.
It only matters if he stops paying off the phone. As long as he's still making payments, Sprint doesn't care how the phone is used.

How do we merge her new Sprint line with the line her fiancée presently has?
Merge a paid line with a free BYOD line which are currently under different accounts with different owners? I highly doubt you can do that.

Not sure where he purchased the IPhone 7+. Used the Sprint "eligibility checker" with the IPhone 6 IMEI and her Verizon phone number and it said she was eligible. Evidently, did not matter that he owes $200 on the IPhone 6.

Her IPhone 4 is active presently. How can I make sure it is not active so she can get the promo?

How do we merge her new Sprint line with the line her fiancée presently has?
Her fiancee needs to port out of sprint and port back into the free plan after your daughter sets it up. Or your daughter can add a second line with another eligible device, fiancee needs to deactivate the iPhone 7+ on his account and then do phone swap on the 2nd free line.

doesn't matter if iPhone 4 is active on verizon to port to sprint, the verizon line will cancel after porting

If you do it all online, then yes. If you call in, then no.
