Try registering with the account # instead, that worked for me immediately while the phone # kept saying not active
Thx - I had to call in to get my account #. Do you know how to remove the $13/mo protection plan? It keeps putting me in a loop...trying to avoid calling in so they dont mess with my plan

Someone said activation fee for ATT prepaid is $25, is that true? They had a promo for free activation with BYOD

I thought that sounded familiar -- I had read your post a little while ago. I just got off the phone and they said they removed it. Still seeing it, so will check back later on it. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

edit: finally removed.

Have 2 s8+'s from tmobile on a postpaid plan. Am I reading this right? We can transfer our 2 lines to Sprint and get $200 back from our credit union at the same time for a year of free unlimited service?

Is this worth the hard credit pull if you're trying to buy a house?

Your s8 won't work because it needs to be in the sprint whitelist and only the unlocked and sprint version can be used. Also you can't get the credits because this is a free and non paid plan. People have already tried that.

Just to confirm, because I seem to be blind and/or slow. You can add up to 4 more free lines for a total of 5 free lines up until the promo expiration date of the first line?

It's a soft credit pull, which customer service said it was a soft pull. Nothing showed up on credit monitoring after many months now.

Is there any way to switch from a pay-as-you-go plan with Virgin to this Sprint offer and keep my number? Would I have to buy a Verizon phone on ebay and then switch to a Verizon prepaid plan and then immediately switch to Sprint?
