Started one line in July and another yesterday. For some odd reason, the line activated yesterday is showing as upgrade eligible but the one that should be eligible today is still greyed out. Ayyy

Sprint iPhone 8 is NOT unlocked even when you buy at full price. You have to keep service with Sprint for some time before they will unlock (even that is difficult).

Unlocked iPhone 8 not equal to Sprint iPhone 8
Sprint will unlock fully paid devices automatically after 50 days:

Nothing automatic about the unlock. Had to put in multiple requests in the past with the tech team and still had a hard time getting things through so YMMV

Same, 6-1-2019. Not sure if it has been like that since I had setup account in June.
Just saw upgrade options in my account page. It shows the option to upgrade now. As I tried to explore the options page crashed.

Well at least sprint shows me upgrade eligible today. I was wondering if they would forget to do that. Pretty sure I have not been active for 120 days but did get in at the end of July and at that time it said 10/1/17 upgrade eligible.

They say it is automatic for more recent phones : "For SIM unlock-capable devices launched after February 2015, Sprint will automatically unlock the device when it becomes eligible."

I believe it unlocked my S8+ automatically without request.

But as you say YMMV.

So, a Sprint iPhone 8 Plus is as good as a Apple Unlocked iPhone 8 Plus? or am I misunderstanding......
I have iPhone 8 plus (sim free - unlocked ordered from apple) working on this plan. Requested and got Verizon and sprint sim each for free from the store

I just signed up through the web link. Gotten all the way to checkout for the sim, then I got nothing. Called, and they saw nothing in the system. Rep. asked if I would like to sign up with her, i said ok. She was able to verify my imei, im using a unlocked Note 8 btw, pulled my credit and the offer details and I was able to establish a account # and pin. Now I have to purchase the sim to activate; which is a hassle for the Note 8. However just by reading on here, it seems the offer is dead. I'm planning to purchase the correct sim card for the Note 8 frm amazon, however I do hope by the time I receive it, they dont give me a hard time about how they no longer have that offer. I'm even thinking to stop at the Apple store before work tomorrow to purchase a sprint iphone 8 at full price since it comes with the sim card and then return it. lol.. I've heard about Sprint and I kinda dont want to gamble $20 for a sim on amazon, just for below average service.
The deal should be dead...so not sure how you will get in on a dead deal. That said sprint service is definitely below average, very few areas have speeds/service that can compete with the bigger guys.
