Quote from cardboardbox :
I tried my S6 and it said ineligible but I wasnt sure if thats because its on freedompop.

I tried an iphone 6 currently on a sprint mvno and it also says ineligible. I wish it would say whether its the phone or the cell service provider that is the problem.
I have the same problem with our iPhone 6S and Nexus 6P. I wonder if I put that FreedomPop SIM in another phone if that would "free up" my Nexus 6P and then permit it to be eligible. I tried searching and didn't see anyone discussing a method of making a completely unlocked phone eligible if it is being used with FreedomPop. I want to get me some SprintPop.

If it is not listed as an eligible device, you can't get the free plan.

Currently using a Moto G4 Play. Has it been confirmed that you can buy another Sprint compatible phone like from Swappa and still keep the free year?

Was anyone successful in getting this plan using google voice number? Did not find the info.

My GV number and phone passed the eligibility test.

I read 20+ pages before realizing this is a 550+ page thread.

Yes, there is some setting in Legacy mode that will allow the GV number to be exported.

My line was in the process of port-in from FP to Sprint. So far, no service and my MEID is till shown to be available for new activation via Ting and Swappa ESN checker. Is it normal? I thought I am supposed to be given a temp number to use during the port-in period. Any comments will be appreciated!
I am in the same situation as you. I called the x8777 to port in my FP number to Sprint this morning. Still waiting then I called Sprint port in hotline, spoke to a agent there, he said since FP closed on Sunday, so I have to wait til tomorrow so FP can approve the port out.

You can buy a phone and activate without losing the plan. You just have to use outside source and not get a discount, such as buying one from sprint or best buy

Who would be so stupid as to drive to a store when you can simply dial 611? Old people! That's who I see in the stores when I go there to look at phones, stupid old people
I'd take your actual deal-related thoughts more seriously except you often come across as having a 15 year old's level of maturity with your non-deal related comments. You might want to get some help for those issues you have with old Americans. Afterall, you might be one eventually (if you live long enough).

Does anyone know the tax & surcharge fees Sprint will charge for Philadelphia area? I have five lines with Cricket right now for $100/month but not sure how much Sprint will charge each line for the tax if I transfer.
