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.

My free year is up at the end of the month so I'm trying the port out and back in to get another free year- bought the Ebay T-Mobile SIM cards and trying to port now. Been on hold for 56 minutes so far...

Anyone know how long before you can request iPhone unlock from att. Phone was bought under contract and cancelled a few days later. ETF is waived from my works business account. I also have gsx report if any info is needed
Depending on the model, you may not need to unlock it for sprint use.

Quote from uncc49er :
has anyone had any success porting out from mint mobile?
I have spent 3+ hours on chat with sprint and also walked into store and talked to them for an hour.
We have tried 3 SIM cards and all "activate", and the number ports over; and phone is not locked.
However, the phone (iPhone 6s) will not get service. Upper left corner actually says
sprint for a few seconds and then flips to say "no service". Phone worked fine on mint.
Nobody at sprint can figure it out. Neither online customer service or in store can solve this. Could it be something to do with porting in from prepaid carrier? I have asked sprint this same question and everyone I have talked to says this isn't the issue
but of course they cannot tell me the problem. Looks like I will be going back to mint.
Unless anybody has any suggestions.
Thanks!
I don't think it's a porting issue. Similar thing happened to me when moving off Mint. I had the same symptoms. Customer Service said there was some "tower issue" in my area and it would fix in about an hour. It was late at night and I just tried again the next morning and it worked fine. However, I wasted 2 hours trying to get it going. I reset the network settings on my iPhone SE, which didn't help immediately. It could have been a combination of profile issues and Sprint's "tower" issues.

If you're willing to up your budget a little you can get a like new or if you're lucky even manufacturer refurb Pixel XL (1st Gen) or Sprint LG G6 for around $160 on Swappa or eBay

My port out to Tmobile and port back to Sprint on husband's account was stressful today. Reporting here in case anyone else is planning to do this and see if anyone else experienced similar or there was something I should have done differently. Tmobile rep claimed they have a new system and he couldn't activate my service without me paying the $3.28 for the service. The wait was super long today so hanging up and calling back wasn't going to be easy. So I went ahead with the process. He also swore he couldn't give me the account number until my port went through within 2 hours. Said I had to call back for the account number, but didn't tell me this until the process was already initiated. Called back when my phone stopped working on Sprint to get my account number from Tmobile. Spoke to 3 reps and all told me they couldn't get my account number until I verified a text code sent to my phone...which I couldn't do since my phone wasn't actually on Tmobile. Finally 3rd rep told me I had to go to my local Tmobile store and show my ID to get my account number. Called my local store and the guy felt sorry for me and gave me my account number thankfully. I really didn't want to lose my number so I was pretty stressed. I don't know if it's true that their system changed but all 4 reps I spoke to insisted that they are using a new system now and that's why they can't give account numbers and require payment for the plan ahead of time.
