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.

1.If not then stop right there. You cannot talk about possibility as you dont have.

2. If you have.. Then login to your account in internet explorer and add a new line and see yourself if offer is added or not..

No more reply to you until you do either of two options above. I will wait for answer from those options. Thanks.
Yes. Offer not added. Don't say later I didn't warm you.
Good luck to you. I'm out.

Why it would be declined?
Dont throw the ball without any logic..

If it will be denied for a new line in existing account then it will be denied for a new line in a new account as well..
I have submitted "successfully" many promo codes before thru that portal. Some I qualify for and some I don't. After a few weeks I receive either a denied or approved email. So, again, all I am saying is, Submitting thru promotions hub website means nothing.

Here is the error

Unfortunately that phone number cannot transfer to Sprint. If you select the "Get a new number" option, you'll receive a number on the Sprint Network and be eligible for our latest offers.
I skipped the number check and just went to IMEI entry - the phone number got entered on a later screen near the end of the order - no error messages - just an order confirmation. Like I said, I won't be able to confirm success until tomorrow and if Visible has cut off the courtesy I will look into buying an ATT number off of Ebay as others have recommended.

You are not even at the porting stage. This has nothing to do with Visible.

Sprint is saying they don't want to transfer this number for whatever reason (maybe they think its a Sprint/affiliate number). In this case, you are out of luck and will need a different number.

Thanks for clarifying - perhaps this is bad luck and the number that came from Visible was previously on Sprint? I've been reading about hard locks against numbers that have not been off Sprint for at least 45 days.

I hope it will be as easy as just popping in the SIM. When I try to create a Sprint account to check order status the first prompt is for my phone number and account creation website says "Hmm... The number you entered doesn't seem to be valid. Please check the number and try again."

The promotion clearly states new customer/account. And based on the comments in this thread about past Sprint promotions - I would not risk and also advise to be safe.

I also received confirmation, twice, that existing customers are eligible as long as it is a new line of service ported-in.

I ported 3 lines first, and was assigned 2 temperory numbers. I was told it is fine to port anohter 2 lines within 30 days of the registration.
Hi Jenkins, How to assign two temporary numbers and port within 30 days. Do you mean to initially port with any other number and then within 30 days call sprint to port the new number? Thanks

I know what you're thinking. Is a new line a new customer or is a new account a new customer. Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being this could be $300 gift card you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?"

The other issue is that you don't need to "bring your own device". You can also buy one. So this pasted text is not telling the whole thing correctly. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

The only question not answered was "do I need the three leading zeroes..."


Enter all 12 digits of your Visible account number (including leading zeros), and the PIN seems to be 1212 for everyone.
Regarding whether or not a number from a suspended (due to non-payment) account can be ported out:
1. Last week, someone posted that a rep told him (and showed the Chat transcript) that a payment must be made to "revive" the number before it could be ported out.
2. Shortly after that, someone replied that it wasn't so, and he was able to port out a number from a suspended account.
3. A few days after those posts, on Friday 3/24 I successfully ported out a number from my suspended account. Since then, two other forum members have reported the same success.

It's confusing. I read different terms every day...maybe Sprint is changing the terms on an ongoing basis. Some terms say new customer another one just a new line. All that was said is, that is probably safer to appear as a new customer.
If they have already assigned me a customer number with credit check a couple of days ago (to send sim cards and a full paid SRP phone via BF) . What's the best way to get the new customer status? Different browser? Different address? Name of a relative?
