Cut him a break, the hotspot was only recently removed back in July 2018. (I had to reference the wiki to find the date).

You would only have to read the top of the wiki to find the answer. Give ME a break.

My 1 year free ends on 4/30/19. Just see now that the promotion will end tomorrow and some issues with T-Mobile. What is the best way for me now? Is the best idea now is to go to T-Mobile store and get port out on prepaid?
That would be the quickest and most surefire way but not the cheapest. You have to fund the account with $10 plus sim cost.

Has anyone traded in one of their iPhone on this plan and swapped in a new one? Does the phone get removed as soon as it's traded in? I should have time to come back home and add in the new phone right? also even if it ends on 4/4/19, I should be allowed to swap/add devices right? /overthinking
Phones are released as soon as the swap is completed. I would think they can help with the swap in store. Also read keith131's post on the previous page

Thank you. I have 5 lines on the account. Each sim I guess will cost $10 plus find the account with $10 each or total? Will they be able to create just one account for all 5 lines?

A correction: $10 for SIM and $3 for pay-as-you-go credit. Basically, $6.5 more than EBay Digital SIM route.

Pro tip fo anyone just signing up: DO NOT PAY YOUR BILL MANUALLY OR IT WILL CANCEL THE DEAL. LET IT AUTO-PAY EVERY MONTH!

I spoke with Sprint CS last year and was informed of this. fyi

That is a natural thing to do and gives a nice excuse too.......
ok, here is an update... Marci's rep called back my wife and repeated the same thing that this is a standard policy and you can only try again after 60 days. Then I thought to try my luck with the credit dept again. My wife talked to them and after talking to the supervisor and persuading (actually pleading) them to give us 1 more chance, he agreed to do it as an "exception". My wife told them that your VP Marci has asked us to contact them for the resolution laugh out loud . This time questions were clear and my wife answered them with no problems. Verification done and her ssn pre-approved for 5 lines. Then I called the telesales folks to register for the service and after spending close to 2 hours on the phone with them, finally got the service in my wife's name till 4/30/2020. The ordeal is over and I am set for another year Applause

A BIG thanks to all the helpful people here on SD !!! even to those who say "Read the wiki" laugh out loud

Try T-mobile corporate store, not branded or authorized retailers. Corporate store has the direct access to port-in backend. Your lines will be ported in on the spot. Make sure to 1) use separate email for each line as TMB can only port-in one line at a time 2) ask and write down account #.

When I called the number last time, it says the line opens from 6am-11pm central time.
