Quote from Scott.MI :
You could try, but some, like me were not able to reuse tmobile sim card. Even if you could, I would not do it that way. You would have to port 1 number from sprint to t-mobile and then port that 1 number from t-mobile to sprint. Then repeat, meaning you would have to call sprint 1 time for each line you want to add instead of adding them all at the same time.
Thanks. I am planning to do the porting one at a time, Also I think we could do the porting online instead of spending a long time over the phone?

In most cases, the T-Mobile sim card is not reusable unless no longer than 30 days

So after 30 days of deactivation, a T-Mobile SIM CAN be reused?

Thanks and repped. It should reused within days, if I could use them again for 5 lines porting, saving me from buying 5 sims from Ebay

We never said it could just automatically be done online.

Most of us recommend calling only.

Probably the rep has to have the credit department remove your SSN from the old account, that's all.
Hi. I just called the xxx-xxx-8777 number at noon, one year free plan approved by credit dept.

Now waiting for the sprint sim card to come.

I had Sprint online login 1.5 years ago, do I have to register a new account or I can add new account number to

that login? Thank u again.

That's great to hear!

I have had to set up a new login each time. It was not possible to reuse an old one, they said.

I ported my number from a Sprint MVNO to Cricket wireless 24 hours ago. Is there an amount of time I should park my service on Cricket before porting into Sprint?

I don't think there is a single definitive answer. I bought some in late November, used all 5 the first time on Jan. 16th and none of them are reusable when I checked 2 days ago

No, people have ported into Sprint within an hour of porting out. If the website says your devices and numbers are eligible, go for it

So I ordered a T-Mobile digital SIM from eBay just like I did in June, went to to the prepaid online page to activate and it said:
"Please correct the errors below.
There seems to be an error in processing your request, please contact administrator !!!"

I hit up chat support at the bottom and they said this type of SIM doesn't work with the $3 paygo plan.
Any tips or tricks? Can I call to do it?

Just need a new # to port in to add another line.

Try contacting the seller, see if you can get a new one and see if it's any different? I've never used them for getting a new number but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Does it fail right on the first page where you check device compatibility and check the sim card?
