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 ranibane0309 :
Not sure if they opened a case. When I was chatting with them the first time I was pushing them to open a case for me but the chat agent informed everything is logged in the chat and provided with a chat id. Then on the follow up calls I got some reference numbers.
Will those help?
Thanks for the warning I know Sprint store guys are famous for messing up the one year free plans and I am worried they may give me a lot of pain before this gets fixed.
One thing I want to be clear of so that the Sprint store guys don't make up some story to not do what is required.

The store may try two things 1) Update the account with my SIM card number which is inside the device - can they do that? this is the best and least painless option.

After all I only have one SIM which is what I gave them for ordering port-in
It is unbelievable to me how they came up with a different SIM card number and ported my phone number with that incorrect number.

2) Give me a new SIM card and then can give Sprint a call to swap SIMs ? Is that possible without touching the plan?
One time I was very impatient cuz online chat wasn't available so I decided to go to my neighbor Sprint non corporate store, to swap a device. They were not busy and I explained to them my situation and they verified my identity, asked for my phone number and looked at my account. After the swap they made sure everything was working, all went well without a hitch.
I think you will be ok. Yes easiest way is for them to check and make sure you have the right SIM, then update your sim card number on their file. If they see you need a new SIM they will give you a new SIM and make sure everything is running smoothly.
But yes as comintel advises, it's best to go to a corporate store.

Can we re-use TMO sim cards (physical)? I still have the 2 TMO sim cards that I used last year when doing Sprint -> TMO -> Sprint. As the deadline is 4/4, I'm needing to do this again, so can I re-use the TMO physical sim cards (is it risky)? Thank you.

Could you please explain? I plan to call TMO to port. But, did you mean that I can check online myself first (before I call) to see if the old TMO sim cards would work? How? Thanks again.

not sure how many lines you are planning to do.. but why can't you spent a $2~3 for TM esim from ebay?

it might be recyclable but if it is not, you will have to do it all over again.

SAVE your time. Investing $2~3 per line to get 1yr free .... not bad Smilie

Thanks... yes no problem with spending a few dollars. I'm just under the impression that TM e-sim is causing porting problems lately, and that TM physical sim is better. Has that issue been fixed?

Did you attempt the quiz on your wife's background? That is not really a good idea as I guess is easy to see now..

You can try your own SSN. It is very rare that they would approve after one day but it has happened. If you have many lines and high end phones, they might do it.

Otherwise email [email protected] and ask for her help. Senior VP, Customer Management. She may help your wife get a new quiz as she has for many. If they do give another quiz, I would make sure your wife takes it.
I sent an email to Marci... let's see what she comes back with... and yes I answered the quiz on my wife's behalf.... my bad !!!
