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.

By Activation if you mean open a new 1YBYOD, that was out of question 'not eligible'.

I'm trying to swap Moto E2 into my existing 1YBYOD line. If you see the discussion on that, there are various issues like FED, Flag, Lost/Stolen...

I'm trying but not yet succeeded in swapping. I'll post final outcome either way.

so.. i was able to find a sprint micro-sim lying around. how do i check if its gonna work? do i need to call? i dont have phone in hand yet, albeit i have a placeholder imei at my disposal.

p.s. i see in wiki i might have to call. do i need to have the phone imei in hand as well or is the sprint sim enough to setup/activate account over phone?

Yeah. Their MVNO flag is set to "PLBL" right now, likely. Sprint will only activate them if they're set to "SPCS". We do it automatically when a device goes inactive, but devices fall through our robot's fingers all the time for all kinds of reasons. PM me on Reddit with the IMEI and I'll see if I can flip the flag over for you so you can try again. I'm /u/LiterallyUnlimited.

I have sent you the message on Reddit, thanks !

Howdy All, So i got my phones and Sims. Is it best to do the process online and then call in to use my sim cards. Basically I would just order the sims from Sprint since this is required in order to get the credit check and such completed and then call in to use my best buy sim card instead of the ones they are sending me. Advise?

Nope, if you already have your phone and sim, just call in. Credit checks and what not can all be done via phone.

Is there a list online that ties the phone models to the correct sim card for sprint? I know that Sprint used to have like 7 different sims for this model or that. I'm hoping the boost tri band card will work but idn. One phone is an iPhone 6 Verizon the other moto x pure. If they work maybe I will try to pickup another on craigslist for my sister idn.

If you wanted an idea of how speeds between carriers compares in different areas, here's is cool site. Just enter your town in the drop down. http://www.speedtest.net/awards/us/2015

It doesn't tell how the actual signal coverage is in your area but this customer rating site helps. Just enter zip code.

I would only do 1 account. That way you only tie up one ssn.
