Quote from Jaxmoto :
All three are Sprint MVNO's, so you cannot directly transfer.

You can port them to a service like Google Voice, then port them back out. It is not a fast setup though, there is a waiting period after porting, then it takes at least a day to port a number from GV to Sprint (GV is a landline and they either have to force the port or it is just slow).

Even if the phones are unlocked, they may or may not work. Although you can do the IMEI checker to see.

If you do not care about keeping the phone numbers, then get 3 new GV numbers, then port them in... which you can do immediately and give it a day, then call to get them to force the port. Make sure your phones will work first though.
Thanks!
New google voice numbers seems like the way to go.

Quote from joesdiner :
I brought one of my 4 Verizon accounts over to sprint on this deal, does anyone know if when I bring the other 3 lines over, do I physically have to have the phones in my possession? I have all the pertinent information about phones, Sims etc. Wife works opposite shifts from me. So it's difficult to coordinate. I attempted to scroll through this incredibly long thread and wiki for answer, so sorry if it's been addressed. Thanks in advance for any information!
I'm confused with the question. I mean if I read it correctly it looks like you've already brought one over. How did that go. Did you physically need to have the phones with you.

Sprint APN's should auto-populate upon network reset as:

Quote from semifast :
I've had my plan for a while and it says exactly the same thing as yours, including the 10gb hotspot and 4/30/19 date.

question 1. When I look under services I thought it used to list the 10 gb hotspot as a service. It doesn't when I looked today. Maybe it never did, do you know ?

question 2. Assuming we still have the 10gb because we signed up when it included it, do you think we'll get bumped up to 50gb ?
I'm curious about this 50gb bump. Can you clarify where you got this information from?

Moto Z2 Force Sprint version if value is important. New in box on the Bay or swappa for around 220. Or LG V40 if you're a big spender.
Edit: LG V30 plus is $360 direct from Sprint.
LG G7 is a little smaller

Thanks. The camera review of G7 isn't that great. V40 is super big in size.
Any other suggestions. Willing to spend $750 +/- and want a great camera with screen size no more than 6in
