No Sprint goes by IMEI not sim ICCID. The phone will still be active on your paid account from Sprint's viewpoint unless/until you explicitly remove it.

Existing paid account holders are not eligible for the free plan.

Also the number port-in requirement refers to porting in a a number, not a phone.

Just got mine activated, haven't gotten my bill yet but service seems decent so far. Not as good as T-Mobile or Verizon but I was expecting that and for super cheap/free I can handle a small drop in service and data speeds. Hope it stays good service but so far more than acceptable. For those wondering this promo ends at the end of the month, come October 1 this will be gone, so if ur interested I'd recommend sign up ASAP!

This was mentioned earlier in the thread. We're hoping to see a batch update on Oct-1 to reflect our update eligibility. Only need to wait a few more days to find out!

do you think it will be upgrade with lease only or other type of upgrades on full price or on DPP will also be allowed?

Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I think Sprint only does Flex Lease and Full Price when buying directly, but you can get a DPP through BestBuy. BB regularly has great deals on Sprint DPP (I bought an iPhone SE a few months ago for like $3/month.. paid off the balance of $36 and was set). I also think that the Flex Lease may be like buying a phone with 0% payments and a balloon payment. I was trying to read up on the lease, but couldn't confirm this, but I think it is a payment for 18 months and then you can keep the phone for a fee ($150-200 based on my analysis).

I'm almost late to the party, but can someone please help me with my questions below?
1. Can i get this promo if I bring the device from Verizon and a number from Tmobile?
2. I'm planning to buy verizon pixel (Sprint claims if it is verizon phone no issues, it's already unlocked), but since i have only 3 days to get this offer...can I sign up or order a SIM card now and later activate it? I mean once I have the phone in my hand. It may take 2-3 days to buy the phone.
3. If I get this promotion I will only be responsible for the taxes every month and no other hidden fees? Where can I find the tax info for 17050 zip?
4. Also, any link where I can check the Sprint coverage?

Thanks in advance.

You don't have enough time to get this offer if Sprint won't extend it.

Thanks for the reply and that's what I'm afraid of.
Anyways, I just found one seller and I'm buying the phone tonight.
But, can you please answer my questions?
