How does port-out process from Blue Beat work? Are there any shortcuts that eliminate having to contact customer service?
During activation you'll enter your email address, IMEI, SIM # etc. After activation, you'll get an email to set up online access. Get it set up, log out, and then log back in. The account number will be displayed and you have the option to change your PIN from the default (last 4 of phone number). No human interaction involved.

Sprint matches the phone's IMEI and the UICC, so it worn't work. You have to log in to the account and make a phone change, i see it is the account management but have never done it so don't know the details.
what if the imei of the phone not working.. without receiving the otp i cant able to login to my account to make changes.how can i do change? can i make change to any phone or only compatible ones?

Can you please provide detailed steps.
  1. Start at BF cashback website
  2. Click Sprint link-out from BF
  3. When you land at Sprint, click magnifying glass top-right of screen and search for "Tribute Empire"
  4. You get three search results, click on middle one, which should be $49 one that is in-stock
  5. Then, just follow checkout process and select a plan that indicates "Switch To Sprint + Get $300" under "Show More Features and Offers"
Important that you start from BF, because that is the source of $125 that makes the $49 phone "free".

Just to confirm, when I submit order, there is no place to request portin. I do it after acct is up and running, then call to port in and still qualify for 300 per line? I see this prom show in each line in cart but nowhere to put port in info.

port info will only show up if porting 1 line.

When I ported 5 lines, I had to send info to chat or call in.

Yes.

You can either call the 800 numbers in the wiki to give them the port in info or get your account number (call or chat or if you orders SIMS its on the packing slip) and set up an account to enter the port in info yourself. I entered it myself because I'd rather not have them make a mistake with the info.

Don't forget to use BF for cashback, do not use TCB.

Yes, you can, but unlike other carriers, you cannot just swap the SIM. You need to go into dashboard in your Sprint account online and re-assign the SIM to another phone. It is a straightforward, instant, self-service process.
are you sure moving a sim is that easy? I thought if it was active in a phone currently, you wouldnt be able to assign the SIM to another phone. However, if a phone is deactivated, then its sim is free to move to another device.

It will not get locked. Locking is a rare bug, and if it happens Sprint will sort it out for you, although sometimes the process can be time-consuming.
its not rare at all. I had it happen repeatedly to me over the last 3 years of being on Sprint.

Thanks. I don't see the offer. If you really want it for the existing acct, call in and ask them to add/accept the offer in your account and then you can do it online.
Call whom .. customer service department or account services department?

And tell them to accept what?
Never heard of this happening with sprint..

SIM and 450 units so it's enough to activate and port out. No CC needed. Need to supply an IMEI. Activation takes minutes. Just log out and log back in to get your account and PIN. PIN is last 4 of the phone number by default. Jot down the zip code for the port in to Sprint.
while creating account will it not ask for otp received in sms? for those who dont have access to phone how can they enter

You're right. It can't be reassigned, while active.

I guess I've been lucky that it has been rare for me and my Sprint friends. I will expand my data set to include your experience. Smilie
