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.

Once Ups initiates the send back to sender process, no help. Maybe escalate it and complain to ups rep from higher tier who has authority. Keep calling ups. Mind you to post the current status of the tracking number? Ups supposed to do re-delivery attempt once before sending it back.
Return to sender and to be delivered back to sprint on Monday.

If sprint sends me another phone do you think that would impact my rebate ?

As long as the original order stays the same, i would think it's ok. You might want to talk with account services about your situation tomorrow.

I just checked on the rebate status of my line 3 which was showing Invalid Activate Date on 4/10/20. On 4/11/20 I resubmitted it using THE SAME info used previously (Purchase Date, Line phone number). Today 4/12/20, the status looks more "normal", no more Invalid Activation Date. Some of the missing stuff should go away when its bill is paid. See attachment. A ray of hope.
@Yamaha Rick, if I'm not mistaken, some of your lines had Invalid Activation Date. You might want to resubmit them. Good Luck.
I got invalid channel code on my numbers too but after resubmission with the same info... I got missing channels etc which I think will go away as time progresses.

Seems your order is a 5 lines order. When you ordered, they asked you to re-fill the porting request form with port in number only, sprint do not allow you change this info on your own, but they can change this info on their end....either modifying the existing porting request form, or submit a new one. Doesn't affect your eligibility for $300 as long you port in a phone number. Yeah best way is to port in the lines that you entered initially. Sprint checks active line(s) on account for $300 to see if they are ported, go to online account, check Transfer status, if you have 5 active lines with transfer completed. You are safe. Link to check transfer status, https://www.sprint.com/en/my-spri...board.html [sprint.com]

Edit:
Change port in number before port, do not change number after port.
Thanks. Unless we know POPI numbers are also safe, I do have to replace 2 of the 3 lines I wanted to change ported number. I would do that after getting the rebate to be safe. one of them is not on sprint before, the other two were. And this is very informative.

I don't think they'd refund automatically. But they do "promise" 30-day satisfaction guarantee. that is, if you are not happy with them, with valid reasons generally, they do refund you every penny you paid. however, i never tried that muscling with their phone reps

I signed up two accounts for this Sprint promo on 4/8 and 4/9, with 5 lines on each account. All 10 numbers had been ported in successfully on 4/9 and 4/10 respectively.

I am moving to a new home with a new address in a few days.

On Sprint's website, I will change the current/old address from the promo signup to the new address of the new house.

I am planning to use the new address for rebate claims.

Am I doing the right thing? Or for rebate claims, I should still use the soon-to-be-old address that I used to sign up for this Sprint promo.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Best to answer would probably be the reps or FAQ on rebatehq's website. They also have a toll free number that you can call.

If you're using a fictitious name and an adulterated address, I'd say leave it alone and let it get cancelled. It's a dangerous game.

Anyone can assist with my situation. Ups was suppose to deliver and they assumed it was incorrect name and address. They did not hold package at hub rather sending it back to sprint. What are my options? Tried calling sprint and T-Mobile kept picking up. If they send me replacement would that impact rebate?

My brother registered for his $300 promo yesterday after he completed the port in and activated his numbers, phones were purchased on the 6th....on rebateshq site his Invalid reasons are:
Missing Is Delinquent
Missing Account Sub Type
Invalid Activation Date
Missing Account Type
Missing Channel Code

Does he need to worry about or do anything about Invalid Activation Date?
