I have a iPhone 6s that I just activated on Tello. I then went to Sprint to get this deal and they said phone is not eligible. I checked on Swappa first that the ESN was clear and ready to be activated and Tello activated it fine. Do I need to wait before trying to transfer to Sprint? If so, how long? I didn't put a lot of money on Tello because I wasn't planning on keeping it long. Thanks

Dang, the AA miles are not eligible for this anymore? i just ordered the SIM card for the deal, but I probably won't go through the hassle of moving to sprint from verizon if I can't get the miles.

Tello is a Sprint mvno so you are considered to be active with sprint and don't qualify for this deal.
Your phone number will not qualify, you need to port to a non-sprint carrier to have it qualify for this deal.
Your phone will not qualify as it is considered active on sprint. You need to make it inactive by porting out of tello, cancelling account or replacing it with another device. Also Sprint flags phones used on sprint mvno's or pre-paid(PLBL). This flag on the phone needs to be changed to SPCS before being able to qualify for this deal. Literallyunlimited on reddit can change this for you but phone needs to be inactive first.

Are you really getting upgrade on lease or full price?

What is the benefit as you have to pay for 18 months which means you have to pay $60 per month to sprint after 1year free plan is over. If you are doing full price then again what is benefit?
you make a good point i didnt think about, guess i will definitely be getting an unlocked note 8 from samsung directly... that way i can change carriers at the end of the free year

thanks for letting us know.. i am too eligible on all line today... but I don't see any good offer to go with upgrade.. do you?
If you start going through the process to upgrade at Best Buy, will it validate the line as eligible now? Don't actually go through with the upgrade obviously, just the initial step where you enter your phone number, zip code, and PIN. I'm curious to see if Sprint is allowing upgrades through 3rd parties, yet. (It might also just take a day or two to have upgrade eligibility propagate through the 3rd party checks.)

Thanks!

Despite using a Sprint phone, I'm having trouble getting LTE data. I can't tell if I'm just in a poor service area or my plan is not provisioned for LTE/4G data.

When you log in onto the website and look at the plan details under "About my devices," do you see an add-on titled "Basic Data Access with Unlimited Talk & Text?" Is that the correct one?
