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.

Call the number in the wiki. Be sure to say you want the free 1 year service. They will do credit check and approve you for 5 lines(hopefully). DO NOT say anything about it being a boost phone. Say sprint motorola phone. If they say you must have the insurance, don't fret, you can cancel later by chat or from within your online account. Review wiki and you should be good. Plan on spending about a half hour on the phone call.
Spent an Hour

Call went exactly the way you said-Except for the insurance request,they didn't ask me for it
Waiting on my Number port from H2o, Will be validating in the Next one hour ,Fingers crossed

Thanks for the response

Great. In the meantime, you can go to sprint.com and make your online account page. From there you can check status of the port request.

I activated again for my Moto E4. I tried the free year last year. Came back this year.

Can I add a midnight blue Nexus 6 to my second line?

If you're already enrolled in auto pay then they have your name. Or maybe do a chat for your answer. Geez, think outside the box.

The person sign up for the plan is not the owner of the CC.

Hi all,

I have an unlocked iPhone se. If I order a sim through the free year link and set up my account online would there be any issues once I receive my sim in the mail, or is it as simple as finishing up the account port with the new sim card and you're good to go? I don't really want to call sprint, I just want a simple smooth port transition. I'm going to be the online free line on the sprint account, no other lines will be added.

you need to check to see if Sprint accept your iPhone before you order the SIM card.

My Sprint BYOD deal from last year will soon be over and I want to extend it again for a year more. I read that the easiest way is to port out / port in. via buying ebay virtual T-Mobile Sim card. I have 2 lines on sprint and I read from somewhere that they can reuse this virtual Sim Card numerous times. (Anybody have done this?) If not, It is still cheaper buying 2 virtual Simcards than buying from Amazon.
My silly question for porting in is do I still need to buy another SIM card for sprint or can I just use the one that I have been using from the first deal.

Sorry if my inquiry was already been answered numerous times but I just want to make sure that I do this flawlessly!

May I ask, how simple was it for you to sign up for the promotion and did you do everything via the online link or did you speak over the phone?

Quote from bigdealz :

Sprint requires phone to be paid off and on their network for 50 days, however this is not technically one of their phones so in the future or anytime they could deny unlocking it. A few people have reported being able to get it unlocked prior to being active 50 days. They have been customers longer.
Data point: I called to request an unlock on Wednesday, and the rep looked at my account and said the phone would qualify (customer since January but of course the phone was only active for about two days). She submitted the unlock request. Today I got an email saying the unlock was disallowed since the phone was not active 50 days. So it's possible either the original rep messed up, or whatever system she looked at to see if the unlock qualifies has been updated to properly show how long the phone has been active on the line.

Just did this 2 weeks ago by buying 2 virtual sim cards. I just rechecked those tmo sim numbers and they pass the tmo check here [t-mobile.com] so yes it is possible. Use the same sprint sim.
