"Really don't mind if you sit this one out.
My words but a whisper your deafness a shout
I may make you feel but I can't make you think.

So you ride yourselves over the fields and
you make all your animal deals and
your wise men don't know how it feels
to be thick as a brick."-Ian Anderson

What is the cheapest phone I can buy for this? USed on swappa perhaps?
Search this thread for Boost Moto E and read the posts about the 20% discount and how to activate such Boost phones without giving away that they are Boost prepaid phones.

Quote from rakesh1024 :
Ohh....not sure what the big deal is in providing 5GB tethering for emergency purpose. It would nullify all the Goodwill for many who join.
That's an interesting idea but not one Sprint or other carriers the cellular industry has adopted.

After 2 unsuccessful attempts to get my moto g6 play unlocked by calling 888-211-4727, I need some advice. Its been over 50 days, I am the original owner, no money owed, all is good. Its obvious the folks that answer the phone have no clue, one said it was already unlocked, not true, another said they have to fill out a request. Still no dice, why do they make it so difficult? Any advice from anyone getting there phone unlocked with sprint?

There is a menu tree at that number.

Are you sure you followed the right branches?

You need to talk to Account Services.

I have a feeling you were talking to the wrong department.

Is there by chance a dedicated number ?

"ACCOUNT SERVICES at 844 665-6327 " is this correct?

I think you mentioned it a few days ago, going thru looking for it now
Unfortunately I think all these numbers are menu trees.

In fact most companies hide their Cancellations and Unlock departments so they are tricky to get to.

Not all, no. I do not think there is a direct number. You have to navigate the menu trees until you get to a specific option to unlock phones. I can get to it myself when needed.

If you did not find it you may have been talking to a general support department.

I suspect others here who have been unlocking repeatedly ok will see this later and describe better.

Did you update your PRL? You will have to update that to see that it's unlocked. I'd update the profile at the same time.

System---System update--update prl and update profile.
