Sprint WILL RELOCK your unlocked device as they did to mine. Not a single incident as friends and family of mine got their RELOCKED to the sprint network. We all had unlocked devices when signed up. Now all our phones are locked to Sprint. Thats illegal.
You have to stay for 90 days to keep the $300 and their unlock policy is 60 days, so while I agree they should not be re-locking phones, you can get it re-unlocked after 60 days and before your 90 day requirement is fulfilled.
Thanks! Ordered the BYOD Amazon SIM on Monday and was sitting on whether to switch my Iphone over. I felt a little dirty about going back to Sprint. I left them 4 years ago (after 18 years as a customer) and said I'd never go back.

Glad I did. $300 is better than $100 and I can still port out in a few months. No contracts on the Kickstarter plan. They automatically waived the activation fee by doing it online as well, but after looking at my confirmation email it says there will be a one-time credit of $30 within 3 invoices however that plays out. My first bill will be charged 30 days from today.

I was concerned with the Amazon reviews saying they were sent 4 of the same SIMs, but it worked flawlessly. Over chat the rep told me which one to use. I also asked if I could double down on both the $300 and $100 Amazon SIM promotion, but was a no go. Worth a shot anyway.

My visible plan is due expiry in 2 days.. I had sprint sim from last BYOD.. can I use the same sim or should I buy a new sim?? Where can I get the cheapest sim (apple stores near me are closed towards end of this month).. please help..

also can I register for no credit check account from cash back site and double dip with referral ... please suggest on how this can be achieved..
You can re use that Sprint sim. Has to be that same phone it was on it before. Or if a different phone, sim has to be the correct sim.

US Bank Cash+ VISA. Cell phone service is among the 5% categories that you can choose for each quarter.

I'm in it to make some money. Expense: 3-4 months of Kick Start on a single line ($40.87/month including taxes + fees) + $14 for two SIM kits (long story). Get back: $300 GC + $80 from tcb + 5% from credit card on cell phone service.
is there a limit for the $80 from t c b?

I only did one line, but some people claim to see $400 pending c.b. for their 5 lines being ported in.

That is when you are just trying to start your port. If port is taking too long or error, you can call the number I gave.
That's the number I used to call for manually porting GV.

I did a BYOD and had my own SIM card. The porting in finished yesterday. Right now I'm on my account page to change the PIN and security questions.

Before I can change the security question, I have to give the "old answer" to a security question that I didn't create - "What's the activation code & phone manufacturer from your order confirmation? (xxxxxxManufacturer)"

What's the activation code? There's no activation code on the order confirmation page. I saved this page to pdf so I know for certain that there's no activation code on it.

And for manufacturer, do we just type Apple for iPhones?

Anyone updated their account security question page?

Have a question, please respond. I bought a pixel 3 xl ported from Google FI to Sprint. Just want to know do I need to use the same phone to get that $300 master card or can I use that sim in my existing phone and still be eligible for the card? Also any idea pixel phone from Sprint will be unlocked one? Thanks in advance.

I agree with GK. The processing center will see you didn't port in and deny your rebate. Good luck. You're gonna need it. I think your best bet now is to call and cancel citing their 30 day guarantee and then use the no credit check option or your spouse's ssn. Rule of thumb: Never listen to in store advice. ALWAYS check SD.
Not sure I got what you are suggesting...

You mean use the current number from sprint and shift it to my wife as a portin?
Thanks for your suggestions

Right after I submitted my order on Saturday, I receive an email from Sprint confirming my order. The Activation Code is in it. See screenshot below.

the activation code is on the email. I didn't receive the email because I accidentally entered a wrong email.

there was an activation code on my 2nd account that I saw in the email.

Never mind.

Grrrr. Sprint has confusing instructions and descriptions.

Chat agent said the activation code is on the order confirmation. There was none. I then searched through my emails and found an email where they had the activation code. So, it was in the email, not the order confirmation page.

Also, on that activation code and manufacturer security question - "What's the activation code & phone manufacturer from your order confirmation? (xxxxxxManufacturer)"

That was also incorrectly asked. I typed it in the format they specified xxxxxxManufacturer (e.g., 12345Apple). Sprint page said the answer is incorrect.

I tried just 12345. The Sprint page accepted it.

First time Sprint customer and so far the webpage and chat experience have been disappointing.

I do like the speed - DL 69 mbps

I was able to change mine by clicking on forgot and it texted the activation code
