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.

Are you able to track your rebate in the official sprint rebate hub? If, yes, better to submit again, if seems like you enter either date or mobile number incorrect
Quote from zeugma :
Yeah, I also just have these:

Missing Is Delinquent
Missing Account Sub Type
Missing Account Type
Missing Channel Code

It seems "Missing" is a yes/no field to be filled later.
When did you guys submit your rebates? Mine were on 30 March.

When I track them via Sprint, all five lines are still "pending," as they were from the beginning.

[added] one line has only four missing fields; #5 of 5. All four others have six fields missing.

I submitted all at once. I will have to keep a track on these for sure!

I checked that Rebate Status site and I don't like some of what I saw:
* Line 1 - Acct #1 - Submitted 3/15/20: Missing Channel Code (I'm not concerned about this)
* Line 2 - Acct #2 - Submitted 3/24/20: Missing Is Delinquent - Missing Account Sub Type - Missing Account Type - Missing Channel Code
* Line 3 - Added to Acct #1 - Submitted 3/27/20: Invalid Activation Date - Missing Channel Code

I don't like how Line 2 looks. It's my wife's account. Has too many missing info.
I don't like how Line 3 has Invalid Activation Date. I have a screenshot of the submission page which shows 03/27/2020 as the Purchase Date. It was activated on the same day by the phone rep and test calls were made.

You activated the Best Buy KS $25 plan for your line, that's why your number isn't qualified. Not b/c this is used to be on sprint free plan. Must be KS $35 to be qualified.

True. In promotion, they didn't mention about eligible plan.

Promotion: Get $50 for each number you bring (up to 2). Select new and existing customers porting a new line of service are eligible for a $50 Prepaid Mastercard. (Valid 1/10/20-7/16/20)

Hmmm..... I don't think SD and other cash back sites can be compared. They do not have any value add apart from letting you click through and earn cash back.

SD provides lot more than all other cash back sites. There is a vibrant and very knowledgeable community who are all willing to offer help and infromation. I have got good deals, earned a quite a bit (for e.g. through this deal) and more than earning, learned a lot from discussions to make a right decision.

SD should be entitled to make money for the related work - website upkeep, the staff etc. For e.g in this deal, I don't think they would have made any money. It's not like we do not make money as well in the process. And returns do not need to be in terms of cash all the time.
I wish I could buy stock in SD

Sprint sent me 4 sims instead of 1? I ordered 2 lines. One I already had a sim for. In the package they were suppose to send me 1 , I now have 4

They are labeled A, B, C and D. Not sure if it matters which I use

I want to gather some more data points. If any of you have an Invalid Activation Date on the rebate status of a phone line, please post whether or not that line was added to an existing account. If it was, I have a suspicion that the activation date for that line doesn't match the activation date of THAT ACCOUNT. If you go strictly by the requirement that the $300 GC is for a new customer, a line added on to an existing account does not qualify, in spite of what the sales/chat reps said. That seems to be true for my line 3 which was added to acct #1.
I have a screenshot of my submission for that line and it shows I did NOT mistype the date.

Yes. Four are different types A,B,C and D. Based on phone model, you can select 1. Mine is XS, selected D.

It's a SIM kit which consists of 4 DIFFERENT sims. Sprint is weird in that they use different SIMs (usually same size) for different phone makes/models.

How long did it take for your status to change? My first set from 2 weeks ago still shows pending and submit date with no other info.

So what I'm afraid of is if you didn't get the $300 listed at checkout and in confirmation email, it's possible they will reject. Curious to see if the ones that did 5 lines with the $300 showing, are all showing just the Missing Channel Code

The one i have that didn't show the $300 at checkout has:
Missing Is Delinquent
Missing Account Sub Type
Missing Account Type
Missing Channel Code


Edit: Confirmed by others , no worries. Missing is ok and normal
