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.

They should honor it. I didn't get the expedited shipping but chose regular and did 2 different orders for 1 each and they both shipped and arrived the same day. The coupon at that time wouldn't allow more then 1 sim on the order for free but my cost was "0"
Wow. I'm still waiting for mine to even ship. I guess that "Express" shipping isn't all it's cracked up to be. Nice.

With my plan, I have savings until 7/31/2018. My last billing cycle was from May 14- Jun 13th and I have an autopay on July 7th. I am guessing I need to port out or cancel accounts before July 13th not to get charged regular rates?

When was your order placed? I did my order on a Sunday and it shipped on Monday and I received it Thursday. So not bad. You might want to do a chat with them and see what the status is on your order. They were super nice through chat when I was discussing which sim card I needed to make sure I purchased the correct one.

Might want to think about porting out and porting back in under another SS# if you can. Otherwise I'd port out and then decide if you want the $15 a month if it's still avail. I just signed up for the 1yr free so I'm sticking with that and going to test the service.

need some help figure out if my understanding is correct....

I have one tmobile prepaid sim card kit that I never used. the expiration date listed on the sim card to activate has passed so I guess I will need to get a new sim card, correct?

Will I be able to use the activation code in the old kit once I get new sim card from ebay and activate tmobile online?

You don't have to get the number on the phone.
Port in the number from TMO as you said.
Activate the phone on Sprint at the same time.
Sprint does not know or care that the phone was inactive up to now or that the number had no previous association with the phone.

This plan requires two separate things
- port in a number
- activate a phone

These are separate requirements.

However realize that they may tell you that the phone is ineligible because it is a prepaid phone. The remedy for that is hang up and try again or try a different way or try to talk them into it or swap it on or activate a high end phone at the same time to make them more amenable etc.
Thanks for answering - will give it a try and hope it works.

For those of us signing up today, how long is the free service good for? A year from plan start date? Thanks!
Some people reported the deal being good through the end of the month 1 year from the date of activation/port. The phone rep who activated/ported ours said it was 1 year exactly, no extra time.

The clueless sales reps have always got it wrong from the beginning.

As already noted by hodaddy and Bro2go, it is whatever is the current end-of-savings date stated at
https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/of...:1yearfree
at the bottom of the page. That text is the formal offer you are responding to. It is not ambiguous. Usually they revise it about every two months to give people zero to two months over a year.

That date is currently 7/31/2019 and that is the date everyone gets currently until it is next revised.

After you sign up, it will be shown on your dashboard. It remains the same as you add additional lines, so lines added later get less time.

I failed the identity check for credit check and was told that i would be unable to apply again until after 60 days...is there any other way around this? I'm eligible as new customer since my old sprint account has been closed for more than 45 days..HELP!

I had forgotten one of the right answers to the identity check questions but now I remember.
