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.

Manure as a Fertilizer
Manure is an excellent fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients. It also adds organic matter to the soil which may improve soil structure, aeration, soil moisture-holding capacity, and water infiltration.
Although it is a known fact that Sprint customer service is one of the lousiest, I want to give a shout out to Sprint for giving me 18 months of awesome service and saving me close to $2,000.00 Applause...Please...Ha ha...drool...worship!

Is that "dang iphone 6" with model A1586 and part number MG6xxLL/A as printed on the box or found under settings? If yes, ask Sprint to unlock it since it has fulfilled the SERO 2-year contract (assuming it has been used on Sprint network for at least 50 days with good standing; i.e., no suspicious activity flag). It's a global version (CDMA and GSM) and will work on all US and international GSM carriers after unlocked
Yep! Model shows MG69xLL/A so it sounds like that's a groovy sign. How do you figure all this stuff out in between all that sweet sweet sweet lovin?

So next I'll ask Sprint to unlock the dang ip6 but where am I gonna find this dummy IMEI stuff? Since I need a Ting GSM sim anyway, why don't I just activate the ip6 with its actual IMEI on the ting GSM side, then port back over to Sprint? (if it's simply a matter of how much time it'll take, i can fit this in with my current love makin schedule)

Love making increases blood flow to the brain Big Grin

GSM SIM is plug and play, where you can use it in any GSM device, therefore you don't really need IMEI to activate a GSM SIM. You can use any IMEI or a dummy IMEI when asked. To create dummy IMEI, use the Luhn algorithm, then try it on Ting BYOD checker or Swappa IMEI checker to make sure no one has used it (i.e., the IMEI is free and clear).

It's too early to speculate, but so far my service is subpar. Calls cut in and out, slow LTE, etc. However, MetroPCS was the same here. I'm actually better off now because of the price. I'm going to test Sprint CS and see what they can do to alleviate this. I'm in VA Beach (Hampton Roads) and I'm still not connecting to Band 41. I believe it's called Spark?

Does this plan allow changing phone number? I have one line that is not ready to port to Sprint yet, can I add a line then port in my real number on top of existing number?

I did this last month and I don't know how to feel about it. Sprint sucks pretty bad. I'm in LA and I constantly experience LTE not working or being really slow. This is coming from Cricket Wireless which was surprisingly better. I kind of regret it but I do like free. Still undecided. A hard credit pull is required too FYI
