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.

Will this work with a used Boost Mobile G6 Play that was previously activated on Boost network?
I can't answer that because my phone was new and never activated before.

Nobody can give you the definite answer.

Probably because it's still locked to Total Wireless. They lock them down tight for 12 months.

I did the swap in this manner because it was a Boost Motorola G6 Play phone that would not have got past the online checker. I used the Sim that came with the phone.
In that case, you will have to call sprint just like iPhone xs/xs max owners. It's always incompatible online

Quote from Rolanda_Shaniqua :
I just wanted to verify for those who said that the "loophole" for using a Boost Motorola G6 Play on this free plan had closed. It HAS NOT. I just now swapped out my current phone with the Boost Moto G6 Play. I called the telesales number 866 782 8777 and told them I needed to swap devices. I gave them the DEC version of the MEID and the ICCID of the sim that came with the G6 Play and made sure not to mention that it was a Boost or prepaid phone. Total time from start to finish was about 30 minutes. Everything is working including wifi calling and visual voicemail.
I can also add that I used the eligibility checker and input the IMEI of a never-activated Boost Moto G6 Play and a Verizon cell number and the checker said the phone and number were eligible. The only thing I haven't tried in the checker is a formerly activated Boost Moto G6 Play with an eligible phone number.

"Your $30 activation fee is waived as part of this promotion. The fee will appear on your first bill and a credit will appear within 2 bills."

You can wait and see if the fee is credited on the next 2 bills or contact/chat with CS and see if they'll give credit right now

Hi, I wanted to know if there is any work around. I had this deal only on my phone number since last December. Now, when I am trying to bring my wife's phone using my social, they are saying she'll be able to use the free service for only another 2-3 months. My wife doesn't have social, so, wanted to know if there is any way tp get this offer for my wife using my social.
Thank you

Port your lines out to another provider and then hope the deal is still available in 45 days when you can open a new account with your social.
