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.

I think there's a bug in their system. on my 1st 2 KS plans, I can't add a line, something about credit check. Even chat CSR couldn't help.
I ended up opening an Unlimited Plus account with 5 lines for $100.
Also can I use my old unused Sprint account again to activate new line or do I have to open new line in new account
This promo ends on 4/9/20, as stated. Once signed up you must submit your rebate for the $300 card by 5/10/20, also as stated.
Other details:
-You can only get 1 $300 rebate per ACCOUNT.
-You can have more than 1 ACCOUNT per address. So if you have a roommate or relative w/ the same address you both can get the $300 card if you have separate accounts. You can't share accounts and both get the $300 rebate. Only one of you would get the $300 if you choose to share an account w/ someone.
-This is a BYOD plan and therefore your phone should not be locked onto Sprint as you did not source the phone from them. The person I spoke to said he's worked for Sprint for years and he's never heard of a BYOD device being locked to Sprint.
-The link above gave me considerable issues ordering. The process stalled at the credit check. I believe my credit reports are now locked because of the Experian data breach and I didn't remember before trying to use the self-service site at the link above to order. Their system first tried to get their chat bot to verify me and she got confused. I ended up calling the number the credit error gave me and that individual was offshore and couldn't understand I was not calling to activate service but because of a credit check error. I ended up being transferred to a corporate sales rep who created an account for me, waived the credit check, and approved me for 5 lines of service. He then ordered the Sim card for me. He's supposed to call me back when it arrives to sign me up for the plan & activate the account. He assured me that even though I didn't go through the self-service system I could still get the promo. We'll see.
-I've been given 3 different time frames to receive the rebate card. The employee at the store says it usually takes 60 days, however, the official literature says 13-15 weeks, and I've also been told 90 days by the chat BOT. So, to be on the safe side expect 90 days. The terms and conditions say you must maintain on-time payments, in full and an active phone line for the full 90 days to get the card so I'm setting up autopay to make sure there aren't any interruptions in service where they can try to deny the $300 rebate.
-The Kickstarter BYOD plan is $40/month with a $5 discount for autopay bringing the total to $35/month + taxes and fees. They're waiving the $35 activation fee via the self-service site or via phone.
-The Kickstarter plan is unlimited Talk, Tex, and Data. They do not throttle data after you use so many gigabytes like other carriers. Instead they prioritize your data when you are in the proximity of other Sprint users. Those users who have used the least data are given priority on the network. I was given the example that if I use 50GB and some other Sprint user I'm near has only used 10 GB then they are given priority on the network but this should only be noticeable if you are in a very densely populated area or crowded stadium, etc. Don't know how true that is.
Hope these little extra bits of info will help someone else like me who has never dealt with Sprint before and don't quite know how they operate.
I read the first 13 or 15 pages of the thread and didn't see the answer before I realized how many pages there were. Thanks!

I've read so many comments I just don't remember- if I buy an iphone XR or 11 from them it can/will be unlocked, but does it support Verizon bands so I can then take the phone to total wireless prepaid?

no one (not even sprint reps ) really knows for sure the exact terms of the deal
best is read about others experience and, use your best judgement.
