TL;DR - both deals have lots of fine print and both might end up being significantly costlier then a non-Virgin alternative.


Deal extended to 8/31

I never understand why people come here to criticize deals that don't work for them. Just move on.

some of the critizisms help me understand what to watch out for
·
Great deal on paper, but the prospect of having to deal with Sprint MVNO service for a whole year is more than a little disheartening.

Thanks!

Hard lock to start. You can request to unlock after a year.

I don't need a new phone since I got in on the Sprint 1 year free deal. But is there any way I can take advantage of this too? Can I sell the entire phone line on ebay?

In reviewing the page, one statement that stands out is...

What if it's not right for me?
No worries. Return your iPhone within 14 days for a full refund or simply take it to another, less-cool carrier.

Does this mean phone is unlocked?
