Guess they are finally valuing their service quality at zero dollars!! Having unfortunate experience of being a sprint customer, I wholeheartedly concur with the valuation of their service.

Hi! I have ten specific questions that only pertain to my individual circumstances. I epitomize laziness and my sense of entitlement is impervious to reason. Therefore it is the responsibility of anyone and everyone who reads this to find the answers to my questions.

I know, it wasnt easy enough to navigate this humongous thread. Still confused after following your direction , many opinions.
Also do you know if I port my number to ipad mini 2, would i be able to make calls, would sprint allow it?

Another question would be , once activated the sim card, can i swap to any sprint phone immediately? Thanks for your help.
My guess would be the Moto E4--the fully unlocked version, not the Verizon or any other branded version. Great little phone.

BTW people say the Amazon versions with ads on the lock screen work ok too to save a little money.

Just called both Target and BB. Neither have any Sprint cards. Luckily I'm not in a rush since my mintsim is paid until the beginnng of March. If they announce this promo ending soon, I'll definitely get on it. There's a Sprint store that's more of a drive that probably has them, so I'll wait till I'm near them. Or look into twigby

It is not directed to you or any one person. It is just a comment on your post. I think he'll probably see it.

All Best Buy's have sims but they are often treated as miscellaneous parts.
Try https://www.bestbuy.com/site/boos...Id=5887020
for example and it will show you which stores near you have that one.

For Target try
https://www.target.com/p/boost-si...A-52591719

(they mostly use the Boost brand which is Sprint's prepaid brand but the sims are the same and it says so on the sims.)

So this is a good deal. Porting was painless if you have all your acct info in hand. It took 30 minutes on phone and was almost immediate on iPad

All sprint reps have been beyond helpful and nice. I was disconnected once. Just call back.

I was able to cancel the TEP.

My bmo iPad is my 2nd of 5 lines on my account. It is a $30 unlimited plan with a 10 g hotspot just like the phone. There is supposed to be credits back for the promotion and auto payment and paperless billing making the service $15. There has been some iffyness on this because initially it was $10. There are some ipad deals out there but we shall see if it sticks

I will be happy with $20 unlimited iPad bill and the $5-8 phone bill

For some reason navigation is really bad on sprint. It was flawless on Verizon.

Sprint/Boost/Virgin use the same SIM cards -- you're looking for the Boost Mobile triple SIM kit which is available in most stores if you need it now

Twigby is good if you can wait for it to come in the mail -- usually less than a week

Thanks, repped. I have time, so maybe I should just order it from them. Unless I know I will be near a particular Sprint store that has them for free

I have a Nexus 6P and when ordering the sim card from the 8777# they couldn't find SIMGLW446C. However, the rep said he was going to send two different sim cards and see which one will work. I'm extremely bearish about this. The UPC #s for the two cards are 854798005125 and 760492031912. Will either of these work as the rep thinks? Thank you.

Cool. I'd never heard of them until I read this thread. What is their main focus? Btw, does the $2.99 includes shipping?

https://help.ting.com/hc/en-us/ar...r-SIM-Card
Nexus 6P
Part SIMGLW446C or Part SIMOLW506TC

506TC & 506C are the same so you can use 446C/506TC/506C

854798005125 looks like 416Q: https://bestcellular.com/product/simolw416q/
760492031912 looks like 436C: https://bestcellular.com/product/simglw436c/

Both are wrong SIMs -- tell them to send you 506TC or 506C (ask for same SIM as Moto G4)

I setup my account with a 6p and the upc on my Sim card is 854798005149 and the part number is SIMOLW506C. I did everything online. It was a tricut Sim kit and they sent the same Sim for my wife's moto g5 plus. No issues on either line. Why are so many people calling when it's so easy to do it online and avoid any confusion?
