My first month, the $5 autopay credit was not applied. I had to call in to get it.

Looks like the same thing is going to happen this month as well...What the hell?

No Boost/Virgin/SPP models can be used (except after one full year's service on Boost and some rare exceptions).
Phones like yours are sold at a low subsidized price in exchange for that one year commitment/limitation.

Anyone in here tried using T-Mobile note 8 on sprint after unlocking it? I heard it won't work since it's not on sprint whitelisted imei. True?
Correct. You can only use Sprint branded or the factory unlocked version.

I am a Sprint SERO user with Samsung Galaxy S7 (bought from Sprint). My questions are: is Samsung Galaxy S7 eligible for this plan? Do I need to unlock it first and how do I check if it is unlocked? Thanks for any help! (btw, I know to enroll this free plan I need to switch out to another carrier first. )

No, only unlocked one, SM930U, directly from Samsung or Best Buy is eligible.

thanks for the info. so even if I unlock my phone, I still can't enroll. Does this mean I can't enroll this plan even if I buy a new samsung galaxy s7 from sprint right now?

I had two lines from the original promotion. The one year free plan applied till 7/31/2018. I added one more line few days ago thinking that that line will have end date of 9/30/2018 for that. But when I go into my account and see the plan details for that line, that ends on 7/31/2018 as well. So, it looks like original date applies to newly added lines as well.

No, you won't get "free" or tax only plan if you use a device from Sprint.

That is not true. As long as the sprint phone is deactivated it can be used on the free plan. I have a sprint iPhone 7 plus on the free plan right now.

You used a non-Sprint device to sign up this plan and swapped to a Sprint device.
