I can buy a money order up to $1000 and pay 88 cents for fee at my local Dillons. .... It's a no brainer.

If you can use them at Staples or CVS for a VGC, you get 5% back, so there is no cost! You even earn some $!

Prepaid cards can be used to buy the equivalent Walmart gift cards to use for merchandise, groceries or gas. People also buy Amazon gift cards and put the money on their Amazon accounts. If you do a lot of online purchase it is easy to liquidate this without losing money. We can use the cards also to pay for our Sprint bill. We can do it in the my Sprint app and you can choose the amount you want to pay. Great if we have money leftover after we use the card to purchase other items.

For people who frequently buy items on Ebay, the Sprint GCs can be used to buy Ebay GCs. The advantage is that you can use up to 4 Ebay GCs for a big purchase, but you cannot use multiple Sprint GCs for a big purchase.

for sprint phones (android only)from dial pad dial # # 7 8 6 # (no spaces) hit view. u can see the history of phone date activated, min used etc |
here is what i know (if anyone want to add or fill in where i have not given information?):
note i have hidden some information as it is not allowed on SD rules, and i dont want to break sd rules, but u should be able to figure it out.)
-2. best practice: do all in edge browsewr, not chrome or mozilla. if not edge , try chrome in cognito mode
-1. port in is required for all lines. no contract, but u will need to stay on for 4 months to get gift card of $300
0. best practice: sign up as new user that hasn't been with sprint for ~45 days to be safe.
use spouse name/ etc.
1. pre sign up bonus: there is one (cant tell u how here)
2. decide if u gonna do 1 line or maximize cash back money maker with 5 lines.
a. if 1 line , then kick starer
b. if 5 lines then 5 for 100 plus
c. if 5 lines , then best practice is that they be done once
4. if u need numbers to port in, then ebay sellers have att numbers for $5 each. they are usually quick and will respond with 10 minutes, with account number, pin , telephoen numbers
5. u can byod or buy phone
a. byod , need correct sim for your phones
b. buy phone, people are buying phone from sprint as they sign up.
the best is refurbished lg from sprint for $50.
u can get this phone practically free..if use certain cbsite u will $125 back per line (cant tell u whcih one here)
c. u cannot mix/match byod + buy phone. its either 5 byod or 5 buy phones
6. post sign up bonuses...there are few, but i dont details.....AA miles back, love my CU,
Walgreens...edit: i am not sure which ones will and will not work
7. there is also the option of no credit check:
a. the details are: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sprint Perks is highly likely stackable with the $300 rebate, see last post from page pg413.
Warning: Plan ahead on your final plan(s) objective. Sign up for whatever plan you're going to keep from the start. Going from Kickstart to the unlimited plans with the BYOD discounts took me nearly 2 hours, 4 reps, a manager and a lot of whining to get and I still wasn't able to get Unlimited Plus for $100 for 5 lines and had to settle with Unlimited Basic for $100. see posts 3641 & 3645, 3653
**Select Sprint Unlimited Plus plan if you have 5 lines to port ... total will still be 5 for $100**
**1st line $60, 2nd line $40, 3rd line Unlimited Basic $0, 4th line Unlimited Basic $0, 5th line Unlimited Basic $0**
to get $300 rebate:
1. Requires port and online registration; Prepaid Mastercard ships after 90 days. - Direct URL - https://www.sprintpromo
2. it is pretty well understood throughout this thread that one must be a new customer, defined as one who has been away from Sprint for > 45 days.
3. Best practice if the numbers ported-in have not previously been on Sprint ever.
i. Sprint lines from 1yr free BYOD will most likely NOT work, not even with a POPI (port out, port in).
see screen shot below on wording that "previously activated number may be ineligible for the offer"
still that hasn't stopped folks from trying. so use your best judgement.
4. there are other items that will make this deal even sweeter. cannot list here, but u need to refer to the posts spread around in this thread.
If you porting in multiple lines to a single account, make sure you do it in one Order otherwise only the first line will qualify as new customer and the rest will be counted as for existing customer
4-in-1 sim kit (says 3 but is 4) is $3 from Sprint with free overnight shipping:

The easiest method to complete your number port is to DIY on the website.
- Get your order number and passcode (from your order confirmation when you placed your order)
- Activate your SIM cards at this link [sprint.com] using your confirmation number and zip
- Your SIMs are activated but they won't work because your old carrier still has the number
- To get account number, look on the packing slip if you got the sims through Sprint. Or, open a conversation with online chat support. May wait up to 30 mins.
- Ask them for your account number so you can setup your online account. You may be asked for your confirmation number and passcode.
- Setup your online account.
- In your dashboard, you may get an alert stating that your number transfer failed and to click on the link to resolve. Use that link. If you don't have an alert, you can manually find the link under the transfer option.
- The transfer page lists all your activated SIMs and their number transfers. They should all be failed. If you don't see a number, then you haven't activated that SIM or you need to wait a bit longer for Sprints system to refresh.
- Open each transfer and enter the correct verification information for your old carrier. The form fields may already have values prepopulated, I recommend deleting old values and entering in the correct values. Important form fields are account number, pin, and zip.
- Wait 5 minutes, reopen or refresh the transfer page and each number should say "Ready for Transfer". If it tells you to call the Sprint support line, you need to wait longer for Sprint's system to update. Just wait another 5 mins and refresh. If it says failed, then you entered some incorrect information and you need to get the correct information from your old carrier. For example, some carriers expect you to put in leading 0's (i.e. 00012345) for account numbers.
- Whenever you want Sprint to start porting, click on each number on the transfer page and tell Sprint to port. There are 2 confirmations. The ports will take around 10 mins.
- Wait 10 mins and your phones should work. If not just wait longer for the port or you have a different issue.
- Once your numbers have been ported, you can register for the promotion.

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 the Sprint page (https://www.sprint.com/en/landings/covid-19.html) that says:
We're supporting customers by:
If you don't have a sim card for your byod and you place the sim card order when you open the account......does the port in process start then or once you receive the sim card and activate the phone with it?
Thank you
1) Using ZTE Max XL running Android 7.1.1. If VPN is enabled on the mobile device, the connected device (laptop) doesn't get internet access. It connects to the hotspot, but no internet
2) Using Moto E6 running Android 9, if VPN is enabled, the connected device gets internet access. It is using a different APN it seems. The ip address the laptop is assigned is Sprint ip address. In this case also, hotspot usage is tracked based on usage info in the sprint acct.
So it seems use of VPN on the mobile device is unable to mask hotspot usage. People were discussing masking TTL (time to live) with VPN usage that may mask hotspot usage. Just wanted to share this as I had read about this a few weeks back here on SD in one of the threads.
As far as the costs vs rewards:
- Pre-owned phone $55 shipped + 4 months of service x $41 (with tax & fees in my case) = $219
- Rewards: $300 GC + $80 cash back + $50 if you use a referral = $430
You decide if it's worth your effort.

anyone can confirm that?
Don't wanna make my phone locked to sprint
thx
I did not have to contact Sprint to get them reunlocked or anything.
Port ur numbers to vz and get $250 rebate on each number and raku 10 gives $75 cash back on each line. You can stay for free for 7-8months. Best offer if you port 5 numbers and use that CB side and port all numbers in one transaction.
$1250 rebate and $375 CB.
Money maker deal.
You have to stay min 6months or 185days or else they will take rebate $1250 back.
My free BYOD is about to expire and I didn't care about the numbers. I ported numbers from Google Voice.
