just added another line this evening. added 3 lines total this past week. i used tracfone byop $1 with $25 e gift card from amazon. if you use an unlocked phone that is eligible on Tracfone and activate on their $15 smartphone plan, and stay with them for a day or so you wil net $9. then you can port your number back to Sprint.
To port my number back to Sprint, what information do I need? In particular, how to find account number & PIN to port out of Tracfone, please?

Try for no charge at all if your free plan ended in the middle of the cycle.

Most have gotten that.

Otherwise, probably it would be the full amount, not pro-rated, unless you can make a special case.
Thanks comintel! My free plan expired on 7/31 and my billing cycle starts 10th of every month. Unfortunately I didn't port out before that and my plan was moved to $100 for 2 lines($111 total 😩). I contacted customer support to find if Sprint prorates the bilI and they said yes but I doubt it will be full amount. I saved the chat and ported out my numbers last night. I should have done the porting before my billing cycle so that I could have saved the new plan charges...

You open up your online account and set your own pin. Account number is the last 15 numbers of your sim card. If you still have the packaging for their byop sim, you will see the last 15 digits of the sim number underlined.

Another thing you could try is the 30 day satisfaction guarantee refund.

https://newsroom.sprint.com/sprin...-phone.htm

If Chat will not give that you could call Retentions/ Account Services 844-382-3317

I am not sure of it could apply or not but you could try.

I transferred my line to Ultramobile using a pay as you go $3 card ( & spent $10 for sim card ). I have another line in BYOD where I need to move this. Sprint shows my number as eligible now. I don't see the account number in Ultramobile site - is the only way is to call them to get the account number ? The pin number is possibly the last 4 digits of my number. Any tips or tricks on this ?

However someone just posted on Reddit that their registration for this offer for KickStart was denied.
Is it $200 per line or $200 per account?

Finally spent about 30 mins on the line and got the account numbers.

One of my SIM card is showing as invalid -- is Sprint somehow holding of on the SIM - the phone number shows eligible to be ported to Sprint - just that the old Sim # isn't working. It worked for the second phone though - should I just get a new Sim ?

You can, provided you get the exacty correct sim part for your specific phone model.

I would triple check that the ICCID was entered correctly first though. Most likely the rep just typed it wrong.

I'm checking the same using https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/br...rint.html? and I get the same message that it is not valid. I'll take a 5 min break and check all the digits again - I may be messing up somewhere

It is best to read it off Settings in the phone rather than try to make out the digits on the sim itself, which can be marred/ scuffed/ hard to read..

Your use case is exactly what NumberBarn was made for. I believe it's still $2/month to park a number. So if you're gonna use 'em for more than 10 months, you may as well port to GV for $20. You can also port to FreeUp for the cost of a SIM which is currently free plus $5 S&H.
