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.

Quote from bigsonny45 :
Does the Walmart Boost Mobile Moto G6 play still work on this plan?

That loophole seems to be closing. Since the IMEI information is on the outside of the packaging, Walmart may allow you to check the IMEI in store. If not, you can buy one, check the IMEI online, and if it doesn't work out, you can just return the phone to Walmart unopened.

I went to Best Buy and Wally the other day and input the IMEI of like 10 different Boost phones (including G6 Play) into Sprint's compatibility site. None of them would work on Sprint.

My boost g6 play still not unlocked yet after calling Sprint 2X to unlock it. Probably they knew this phone is not supposed to be activated on postpaid and ignored my request.

I wonder if swapping in the G6 Play onto an already established line still works. I swapped in a never activated Boost G6 Play on to one of my lines about a month ago without issue.

I went through the process of porting out to T-Mobile, Sprint deactivated and ported out, then ported back in. Rebooted phone and I'm getting no signal.... speaking to a customer rep and they see it was ported out today but not ported back in yet.... just wait?

Would like to use this plan with a dual sim iPhone, just for data. Sprint does not support esim but any reason it will not work with Verizon as a second provider?

I just activated the line. However the quality is bad. Could I terminate it? How much do I have to pay?
Quote from lou2004 :
Whole month cost about $5. Worst case just give Sprint $5. Probably cost nothing if you cancel within 14 days.
more importantly, if u provide details, there is probably a solution to your problem
might be simple fix

it is probably a incompatible phone
or perhaps apn setting

or simply a factory restore of phone needed

i wouldn't give up so easily

i concede S is probably not gonna work everywhere and is arguably the third / forth best carrier

but it really isnt as bad as "no signal anywhere"

and voice on cdma should be better than gsm

just my 2c

Quote from smartt :
What about the new XS or XS Max?
I can confirm this plan works with iPhone XS. Just buy the sprint Version from apple store for full price. Say it's a gift and you will activate later. The sprint version of iPhone XS is 100% unlocked and works with ATT AND Verizon. But the main purpose is to get the sprint sim that is for whatever reason special and only works for XS. None of other sprint sims I had would transfer to XS BUT would work fine with iPhone 7.

I've been using this plan for couple weeks with iPhone xs max. Works fine.

I would like to sign up in the coming days. Is their any reasonable phone that i could purchase immediately to give sprint a test run. I'm unsure about signal quality and have nothing to go by?
Switch in and switch out if you don't like it.
