If you want to see it shows up in the cart, you have to use MS Edge or Chrome incognito mode.

There's no way around it. You have to call them to clear it. They either flag it by IP, name or street address.

I have been having same problem for several days.
did they clear you for online or they made you place the order over phone

I had the 1 year free plan that had a credit check account which expired this January and I ported to Mint Mobile for the last 3 months. Can I use the same name and phone numbers for this deal or should I use another name and get numbers from Ebay?
Collective thinking of this thread says using former Sprint BYOD numbers could be problematic. Use of name and address from old plan is okay, as long as it has been 45+ days since you canceled the account related to that plan.

I don't think upgrades work. Has to be a "new line of service" for the cb to work.
thanks, that would make sense then why it didn't track.

did you use xx site, did you add or port a new line into your existing sprint account? thinking about add a new line to my 10 days old sprint account, i know i can get 300$ for the new line, but not sure if i can get the $80 extra from xx if add the new line, or best way to add a new sprint account thru BF site(not sure able to by use same email address for 2nd sprint account)????
yes, looks like it has to be a new line to qualify for the $40.

how are you adding a new line? most aren't able to add lines online unless you create a new account.

Quote from myeric :
I have successfully ported number from Freedompop to Sprint. Make sure the number you are porting is from the SIM card account (global sim or LTE sim). Those numbers are not from Sprint. Give the account number and pin in the port out page.
Account number is showing same as phone number and starting with '1' on Freedompop port out page. Did you use Account number with or without 1 in the front? Because, when we enter phone number, we dont add 1 on sprint website, so wondering if that is causing any issue.

Also, can you tell me how long it took to complete this transfer?

Thanks!

I think 3 months is long enough, but Sprint might not think so. I'd rather do a little extra work than lose out on $300.

I received the phones/SIM I ordered but have not activated them yet - how many days I can wait to do the activation / port. Just want to use the current provider service at max possible with a billing date of 22nd every month.

I have a no credit check account with my actual name and correct address on my billing credit card. I did only one line. Now planning to take credit check account with five lines. I will buy sims from ebay. Planning to buy 5 phones from Sprint (may be 2 pixel and 3 tribute).
Please let me know if I can use same name and address but different email and different credit card with same billing address. Would there be any problem?
Also to add 5 lines do I need to provide names and details of 5 different people?
Do I need to do this from a different IP address?
I am planning to use referral, Bfru CB site and then port.
Please let me know if there are any other things that I need to keep in mind.

Can someone please answer this.

Thank you in advance!

If in the order confirmation email it says 10 days to activate then it is better to do that within 10 days. If it does not say 10 days then 30 days. But the sooner the better. For many people in this thread it explicitly mentioned 10 days.

No I didn't call and I'm not going to call. I was trying to order under my wife's name. Since it wasn't working, I'm not going to order.

u can still port out to h20 for example,

port back to s using the best buy $25 ks plan.

open new account in ur name.

can be in in 3 days..no loss of service.

same $25, 1gb v unlimited

no $300 gc
Thanks. Would it be possible to just cancel her Sprint service as of 4/8 (the last day of our month billing), then the next day (4/9) create a new Sprint account under my name and sign her up for the new plan? I realize that we would not receive the $300 GC and there would likely be a $30 activation fee, but having the unlimited data would still be worth it over the current 1GB she gets for $25.
