I just bought a couple pixel 3 phones from project fi...


Can I get added to my father's sprint 1-year-free plan account? he started about 6 months ago. if i get added now, if possible, do i have 6 months of free left, or what?

EDIT: I just realized that because project fi uses Sprint's network, it disqualifies me for sprint's 1-year-frees service...doh!

EDIT #2: actually, if the pixel 3 supports both e-sim and regular sim, wouldn't it be possible for the same MEID/IMEI to be active on project Fi AND sprint?

Not sure what that means but thank you. I assume I will figure it out when I get my phone delivered and sign up. Gave rep.

No, you should buy the needed sim now locally from a corporate-owned Sprint store (it is also included in the 4-in-one sim pack) so you will be ready to phone in and sign up and activate immediately when the phone arrives.

Note do not ask the store for advice as to which sim to buy as they may not know, just get the one specified above which is correct as edog11 is meticulous.

Online activation is not recommended (see Wiki) as it costs more, adds delays, and has other issues.

Not really. "It's just business", but I will stick with them because I know the service is great in my region now.
Retentions may well continue to offer incentives to stay. (If the proposed merger with T-Mobile is approved all bets are off)

Yes you can, I just assumed you would not want to wait for shipping, that's all.
That's just the regular Telesales number that is used for this offer (and others).
But that's good that you have everything en route to you anyway......
