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.

Quote from comintel :
They did not intend that you interpret it the way you did. You always lose use of a phone when you port out its number until you next activate it.

It is no problem at all to use a third phone. It is perfectly normal. In general it is better not to use a phone that is involved (as your experience confirms).
Well it is very late now to borrow phone, I just want to know why I can't do this online? or to Chat?

They'd be closing anyway this late today but tomorrow is good.

You can do it online if you want to pay for unnecessary sims to be shipped and wait for them to arrive in a couple of days.

You cannot do it via Chat.

So calling 866-782-8777 to open the new account under the new SSN is your only practical option.

Did you turn the phone ON with the SIM card in it before you do the Sprint checker?
I was just checking the box at the store.

The phone will be activated when you make the purchase, and then it will pass the Sprint IMEI checker.

I plan on buying the Boost G6 play to put on Sprint but I'm not entirely sure how I get the phone number so they can port over when I call in. Do I just use one from the free calling/texting apps?

If I have an iPhone X from Tmobile, can I still try and port over to Sprint?

I've seen it only say Verizon only on the list of phones acceptable.

Not to add a second or third etc. number, no. You have to call in to do those.
They left those to be done manually only for this plan.
Thanks, that's what I thought and makes sense since the link is to set up new accounts only.

Please read the wiki. Do you have a working phone from a non sprint carrier? You can also port over a google voice number.

No, Tmobile or AT&T iphone 7, 7+, 8, 8+ and X won't work with sprint. You should run the IMEI though the checker and it will come back as not eligible.

If model A1901 no because it doesn't support CDMA. If A1865 yes.
Both models work on T-Mobile.
