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.

3 lines on verizon. Paying around $250 a month. is it worth the switch?
If T-mobile coverage is good where you are, you might consider their getoutofthered promo. They'll pay off your phones AND let you use those phones on TMo. Not saying you are going to come ahead for sure, but worth comparing against this offer since here you have to buy new phones. https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-35609

As noted in the Wiki, all recent Sprint phones are eligible as well although not listed usually.

The list is not complete, as it notes - it is mainly other carrier phones which is their marketing target.

You will be able to use that phone no problem.

You can use the same sim as you had before if you kept it.

The offer does not include Sprint tethering or hotspot and you cannot pay to add any either. So the answer is No.

Only if you are prepared to activate the family member's phone.
There will be no way of getting the S7 Edge from the UK on, even by swapping it on later. It could never work on Sprint because it does not have Sprint's bands, to begin with.

Trying to get the 2nd free year using my spouse's name/SSN. Thanks to GreenSnake1504 for providing the TMo eSIMs. Porting out was easy - don't know how TMo will charge for "pay as you go" service as they didn't ask for credit info...I didn't use their SIM as I don't have a physical SIM.

Nonetheless, I was able port those numbers back to Sprint but somehow the lines are not active. Their porting dept is closed and have to call tomorrow to find out what is preventing the port. No messages or calls. Will update tomorrow.

I am already a sprint Boyd customer. I ungraded my phones by going directly to Apple and buying my phones outright.

I purchased 2 unlocked iPhones from Apple. I have one 8 Plus and one 6 Plus. Do I need to order new Sprint SIM card kits? Or do I just swap the current ones

You probably should have gotten Sprint sim from the Apple store. Should have worked.
