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 poqw54 :
if my credit score is low, will i most likely be rejected? and if do get approved, would i most likely qualify for only one line? two?
While there are no guarantees, they have relaxed credit criteria for this offer so a lot of people who did not expect to be approved are approved for a full 5 lines.

I saw one Sprint dealer say he had never seen any potential customer turned down completely although some were asked for a deposit (that was for paid plans though).

They do put an account credit limit on some accounts which would affect the ability to buy phones from them but you are better to bring your own phones anyway in most cases.

I do not think there is much downside to applying.

Quote from kb08 :
I used sprint free 1 yr plan last year, then moved to t-mobile, after more than 45 days , tried porting in back to sprint.. tried porting online, but after entering SSN for credit check, I got 'order required additional processing'... should I call the credit department to get the application approved ?
Did anyone experience this , when trying to port back with same SSN after 45 days?

P.s : I know my credit score is good (>750)..
yes i have ported back to free plan after 45 days. sprint performed a new credit check, a new account was created and was approved for 5 lines. they had problem initially in running my credit, as my ssn was mapped to older account, but they connected to a different department which closed my old account,removed my ssn from that account so that a new credit check can be run and can be associated with a new account. i did everything via phone.

If it is compatible with LTE band 25,26,41, you may use an activated SIM card in it. But certainly Sprint won't activate it to this byod plan

For this plan, can I create a plan and port over two numbers now, then two weeks later, port over another two numbers? If so, can I do it online? Will it mess up the free plan some how? Thanks.

You can port in additional lines at any time to your account. It is recommended to call in. See wiki post for details.

I fully admitted it. Who wouldn't be too lazy to read a 10pg document? When they could spend 10 seconds asking, then come back later for the answer? Hell, I can't even make it through a 10min YouTube video....

What sim card did you use for the s10? Tried my old s9 sim card and didn't work. Went to sprint and told me it was a special sim card they didn't carry.

You didn't get the Sprint Sim card when preordered S10? I added it to order for free. You might ask Samsung to send you one. Maybe .
