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.

Best B? I tried to sign up online for this deal but they can't confirm my credit online. My wife is on paid sprint account, should I apply for free account in her name or finish with mine on the phone? Thanks!
I have a total of 10 Sprint lines, 5 on the free byod under my name and another 5 paid under the wife's name. I don't touch my free byod account. I referred the wife's account so she got $250. I don't get any referrals cuz I'm under the free plan. The wife's account I use to get upgrades through Best Buy. IPhone SE and Samsung Galaxy Emerge J3 are cheap. Couple of weeks ago LG G6 was on sale for $5/month x 24 months. It's very easy to upgrade. I'll be closing the wife's account in a couple of weeks, I hope my $400 gift card I'll receive by then. After closing it I won't be able to upgrade anymore. I'll wait for 120 days to upgrade the ones on my byod (in case there will be cheap phone deals).

Call the number on the wiki, or the website. It's much easier and less frustrating.

Thanks. I looked that some folks ported to H2O and then Sprint. That will only work if this deal gets extended into September.
Go with T-Mobile pay as you go. You can get account number and pin right away and then port. Dunno if you can get pay as you go sim locally or maybe you can do Amazon if they have 1 day shipping. Act fast!

let wife or anyone else open up a new paid account, did this with 5 lines and every week i've been upgrading like crazy. you can upgrade as long as you have paid off the phone. once phone is paid off and upgraded to a new one, this phone line will be de activated and can be used with the free 1 year byod.
Thanks! Yep, this is what I'm thinking of doing for now...

I went to Sprint Corporate store near by and got two free Sim cards for iPhone 6 and Galaxy S8 phones. Then simply called to this number 866-782-8777 for getting the new connection setup. All completed in one hour or so including account creation, auto pay setup, credit check, porting from AT&T, and network accessibility. My online account shows it's a free connection till 09/30/2018 as well. Save money by getting sim cards from the corporate store only. Dealer stores are not offering SIM cards for this plan.

Happy Switching...! :-)

In checking the Sprint website, looks like instead of upgrading your existing line or adding a line, you can also actually add a new device to a new, separate plan online. Has anyone tried that to get phone deals on a paid line that is kept on a different plan, separate from the free line and plan?

I have not tried that so I can't tell you. Just port your numbers out instead of cancel. Then let them die a sloooow death...

Did anyone try to use the Verizon Moto E4 prepaid after unlocking it with this deal?

I recently bought a house in PA and to my surprise it shows Sprint is actually very good in there lol.

So I would like to try this process with the Moto E4 Verizon after unlocking it.

Go to the nearby corporate store. Just tell them the mobile model and then get SIM cards for free.

Nice. I'll add that it depends on the dealer. No Corporate stores in my area, dealer charged $10 per sim. I'm fine with that

Sprint corporate store doesn't charge for this. They cannot activate this plan in store as well. This promotion is available only over the Web or Phone.

just a thought...if you need to port out, i think the xfinitymobile deal LG X charge for $1 is one of the best ways to port out a number from Sprint. I have 5 Sprint lines and just bought 5 phones from xfinitymobile. I will try to go that route. I think it will be painless and will not cost me anything extra.
