Quote from dealhunter1 :
I see the 7/31/19 expiration date. At this point, if they are crediting you thru the end of the previous month, I would be better off waiting until 9/1 to sign up? Right?
That was from a signup at an earlier time.

If you sign up now, you would get a 9/30/2019 end date in either case. So no point waiting.

It jumps forward 2 or 3 moths at a time.

If you wanted to wait to sign up in the hopes of getting a still later end date, you would have to wait until late Sept. or early Oct. and that might be risky. You can do it if you want but you might lose the opportunity completely if they unexpectedly close the offer sometime in September.

Question about Sprint free unlimited Family plan.

Assume I join Sprint free unlimited plan first in August, then after two months, my wife joins my plan in October.

My wife's free unlimited plan will expire as mine, or two months later?
Same as yours. Additional lines added later get the end date of the first line.

I called on my Verizon phone the number, and it says the number has been disconnected?

I guess Verizon doesn't like this too much eh?

I can't seem to order online because it looks like you need to buy the sim, when I have already bought a sim for Sprint, anyway around that?

Thanks

Haven't kept up with this and don't want read a lot of pages. Has anyone heard when the free plan offer will end. I want to add my new Moto Z2 and cancel the other one I have so I want to wait as long as possible. My first year ends in 3 months so I would rather wait a couple of months. I guess porting from google voice still works.

This stuff (such as the end date) is so basic, that no one's going to want to help you until you at at least try for yourself. Every one of your questions is answered very early on in the wiki, so not only do you not need to read "a lot of pages," but you don't even have to read one full page.

I don't see anything about Verizon not allowing the number to go through..

Also, doesn't seem like there is a workaround for ordering online with sim already in hand.

Just went through the process of porting two lines from verizon today. the process takes sooooo long on the phone to activate the SIM and transfer the number....

The second rep gave me a very long speech about the fact that if my phone dies or is stolen during the first 120 days, a new phone can NOT be put back on the same plan/line, unless the insurance coverage is on the plan. Is this a new rule, BS?? Can't see the terms anywhere so far.....

Do you think I didn't read the wiki? Perhaps instead of saying read the wiki over and over you could actually help other people? Instead you would would troll people and say read the wiki to multiple responses rather than help people.

It seems like you have a lot of free time on your hands, maybe you could actually help people instead of being rude.

I'll stop 'feeding the troll', thanks for your 'help'.
