I got a tmobile sim from Apple store. Can i activate it and also port number from sprint at the same time. Can i do it online myself or do i have to goto store.
Tmobile sim from apple needs to be activated by tmobile by phone( 1-877-778-2107). You must port your sprint number into tmobile during activation. Ask to be put on pay as you go plan and create a pin.

and, if that's what you mean (Port OUT of Sprint), make sure that you have your Sprint Account Number (NOT the same as our phon #), and your SPring 6 digit PIN.

I'd like to buy a new phone to get this deal but some of the details are beyond me, so I'm not sure I'm doing it right.

I am on Boost mobile with a Google Voice number and an older phone. Sprint's eligibility check says my phone isn't eligible as expected (doesn't say anything about my phone#).

If I buy an unlocked Moto e4 plus, what are my steps from there? Do I need to "activate" the phone with Boost first, or just proceed straight to the eligibility check and buy the Sprint SIM?

Boost phone and numbers cannot be moved to Sprint. As technically they are in sprint database. Do not activate your phone on Boost Read wiki. on how to buy sprint sim; or options to port out from Boost or port in Google voice number

Grouchy16 is absolutely correct (I almost forgot that Boost is a Sprint MVNO). Take care of your phone number as he suggests (or, if you don't care about your phone number, get a TMobile or GV to port). Then, after you get your Moto E4 (nice phone :-) ), do evertyhing else online.

How is this a deal?? 10 bucks shipping on a sim card... but really how is this a deal? seams like more advertising than posting a deal. SD really needs some mods to buckle down this is worse than the game bundle/ PSPlus/ Xbox GWG notifications, at least those can be a debatable DEAL, this is your standard 150 dollar phone bill WITH NO DEAL INVOLVED. How is this a deal??

Not only plus it's Sprint, with the limited H/W available I don't see me ever using Sprint at all.

You've missed everything I guess. You can get a free or cheaper sim card if you try. And I am paying, after taxes, $3.13 per line a month TOTAL for the next year.

Please share your "better deal" or have fun paying more whatever you are using.

I think you have never paid a phone bill before. Your parents took care of that for you right?

Seriously: Only 1 of two things are possible:

1) He misunderstood/is having a bad day. Understandable, happens to the best of us. If so, he'll come back and tell us. OR

2) He's a Troll. If so, let's not waste time. (Don't feed the Troll unless desi wants to give him a cookie)!

Let's see.....................
