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.

Here's my experience so far:

Step 1: Registered my email for Sprint Referral bonus through link someone shared with me on 16th. Received email with details on next steps once I activate my number.
Step 2: Went to Sprint website, using "No Credit Check" option, created an order for Pixel 3XL and KS40 plan. Also filled out port details while checking out. Didn't place the order yet.
Step 3: Went to TCB, clicked thru their link and then checked out basis the order created in step 2 which was already using "No Credit Check" option. TCB showed pending cashback almost instantaneously and also received email from them
Step 4: Received my Pixel today. Set-up sprint login using account number provided in the box and pin provided at the time of order placement.
Step 5: As soon as I logged in, I saw a box at the top asking me to complete my port. Clicked there and requested the port to complete. It got completed in like 20 seconds.
Step 6: Turned on my phone and went through the process of setting it up. It was done using e-sim. Once the set-up completed successfully, I could see my line in the sprint online account.
Step 7: Completed my referral thru details provided in step 1 above
Step 8: Registered for the promo using the code

Only question remaining for me is whether I can add more lines that will be eligible for this offer. While registering I read it is for new customers transferring lines. Would I be still considered a new customer given I already have one line now? Anybody knows answer to that?

Also $50 for current customers to bring in a new number.
Says it works with $35 kickstart, chat said yes once no a second time.
This would be worth porting off the $25 KS and coming back at $35 KS but I have little faith that would be honored.
What is this $50 for current customers offer ?

how were you able to add acct# and pin during order step... it never asked me.. only phone numbers to transfer were asked...
I placed my order using my computer (not a phone or tablet). There were boxes to put in acct# and PIN. I posted a screenshot in one of my posts yesterday. I'll look for it tomorrow. Past midnight here, I'm going to bed.

I missed out on referral and cash back and activated my sprint account. Will it work if I refer my wife and create another account on her name even with same address?

Good catch kenpet. I read it though as BYOD $300 vs. lease and $100. Both ports. Not so much new vs. old accounts, but to be safer (and free 3,4,5) do a new account. . . as me, you, and several others have suggested.
I am confused now which one is it ? The way I understood this it's $300 for BYOD and port in required and both current Sprint customers and new customers are eligible right ?

There's a better deal for $1.47 on Amz if you search for Blue Beat Digital sim card. It sold by BBD but it's Boom mobile. I ported to them today so I can port back to take advantage of this offer. Porting process was a little janky as their on-line form didn't allow inserting my Sprint 6 digit PIN. Each time I had to use chat to correct the PIN.
thanks for the tip, repped!

How long did shipping take? Its giving me an estimate of 3/23 - 3/26 which is kind of a long time. Deal could die before then.

Copy the promo code in the OP and then click on the link. . .

The body of the promo page states " New customers bringing their own device & porting a number to Sprint can receive a $300 Prepaid MasterCard with eligible plan."

Though no such exclusions of current customers exist in the "small print" disclaimers section below the above.

Some current account holders have reported getting the $300 "pre" confirmation email after adding a new line and registering for the promo, as well as some seeing the $300 show up at checkout. NOt all I believe in this situation, though

Only new accounts, though, can get $5 lines for $100, thus maximizing the deal .
And is quite honestly the only way to technically adhere to all the conditions on the promo page. Which is why opening a 2nd account, the no check account, is so popular. Especially if you are only doing this for the rebate (no credit pull).

I had to wait for about 1 hour on hold and I don't think that I ever got connected to a person.
Any tricks for porting the number another way?

but i would like to open a second credit check account. dunno if that is possible. the first credit check account was the free byod, the 2nd one if at all possible, would be used for this $300gc promo.

I want to port my current number out of sprint and then back in... few questions:

1. Do I have enough time to do this?
2. What carrier can I port to, are there any "virtual" carriers that just act as a proxy? Or what is the best way to port out.
3. Anyone else do this and have any advice?

HA GK, I don't know how you I got you quoted on that post, I was just responding to the other poster.

Dont you have a SWAC account as well? Did you decide to keep or ditch it (if the former let me know)? Or is that one of your ladies account? Desi's right, hard to keep up with.

But as to your question I believe it's one account per SSN (credit account). At least on consumer site.

I would just do the no credit for this one and get your $800 or more plus any referrals and other bonuses you have up your sleeve.

See if your Free BYOD JOYRIDE ends, and if they offer you something juicy afterwards. And if not, then jump on a credit account 4 months or so down the road from now and grab some free S20's Plus free watches or whatever juicier deal they will offer then.

Or if you're only keeping a couple of lines long term consider doing this deal for the cash, plus have one of your wives do the BB moto e6 deal (free plus $30 activation but get's you grandfathered into $25 a line kickstarter). And sub in some better phones if you like. In a perfect world you could wait a few months to do this. . .so that you did not have to involve the wives or pay for 2 accounts at the same time.
