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.

Opened 5 lines on March 16 and completed porting, activation on March 17

Received a bill on March 18 for $127 ($100 plus fees, tax) as first bill and paid it

Received another bill few days ago for $132 ($100 plus fees, tax) with Bill Period: Mar 17 - Apr 16, 2020

Says full $132 is due. WTF is that? Why would I pay twice for 1 month of service?

Anyone else?
I believe the $132 will be autopay around May 7 or so, correct? The $132 is for the 2nd month service ending on May 16. The auto payment occurs 6-7 days before the start of a new billing cycle.

So you think they will verify the name on the CU account?
Would it be better to just open a new CU account with the same name as on Sprint account....in which case can I resubmit or change the original submission?
I have emailed LMCU but have had now response.
I submitted through Contact Us in LMCU and received response from them with case number on next day.

[CASE:5XXXX] Love My Credit Union Rewards Inquiry.

I got the response from this mail id - [email protected]

If you directly sent mail in past, try with Contact Us for quick response.

Reg name - I am sure they will check for account name which should match with Sprint main account holder. IMO, You can send mail to [email protected] reg LMCU name concern and from her team some supervisor will contact to fix this issue. Remember they are very powerful compared to regular CS and they can bypass/suppress any validations.

Opening new CU account doesn't look good now. You will get one hard pull while opening new CU account and not sure about Sprint T&C regarding life period on that account. If they say, CU account should be greater than 6 months or etc, your case will be rejected again.

Don't lose hope. Some of our SDers, already contacted Marci and all were positive.

Yeah, due May 8th or something. But it clearly shows that the bill period is for Mar 17 - Apr 16, 2020

So that does not seem to be for 2nd month??

It is for the 2nd month. I know the time interval in the header is confusing. It uses that since the bill shows the data usage and call logs for that time period. No worries.

I opened CU account last week (4/15) in my name and submitted LMCU with my wife's CC account about 32 days after activation. The status website said approved after a few days (applied 4/21, approved 4/23). Now waiting for the $200 deposit. Last time I did LMCU in 2017 it was processed pretty quick.

Thank you for the reply. I am confused by "my wife's CC" account.......are you saying the names on Sprint account and CU account do not have to match?

For those with invalid activation date (purchased 4/8, submitted 4/11), what's the update practice about what to do? I've searched previous pages and don't see it.

TIA.

ATTENTION! READ WIKI

Guys, I updated the wiki regarding the Invalid Activation Date after 4/9/20 and Walgreens GC since I got many PM about this. I updated to Ppl who PMed me but I would like you to know about it too.


Info is there you just need to find it and read it.

only CC account eligible for sprint perks

Edit:
If you have a Credit check account with u+/premium,
register Walgreens GC at Sprint.com/BalanceRewards [Sprint.com], then fill out https://sprint-walgreens.sheerid.com to enroll.
Keep in mind! register and enroll in a new sprint perks will replace your current existing sprint perks

See you guys in 80 days.
Should we still email Marci? I don't see your update.

I am not eligible bc I have NCC account. You shouldn't have any problems with this Walgreens sprint perks if you have CC with u+, and fill out the two forms. gl

Contact Marci if you activated after 4/9/20 and have invalid regarding the $300 rebate

IMO, they will only verify if you meet the requirements for this perk, then validate your CU account using only account number and routing number to see if it is an active cu account, they can direct deposit in your bank with these two pieces of info. I suggest contacting top executives only if you can't find someone to solve your concerns effectively.

If you are still worried about non-matching names, calling your CU to add the name of sprint account holder to CU to make it a joint account is better solution, After money received, remove name if you want.

if you contact them regarding mismatching name and sprint doesn't want to honor the LMCU since the account holder must have a LMCU account for this perk they will say: sorry, you don't have a LMCU account by then you can't get it, so adding name is more effective.

Edit:
Never mind, just see a DP of svsfan
Sprint Cc in wife's name with his LMCU account, submission approved

Hey, if you are emailing Marci, can you also tell them that the rebate submission/status tracker site: sprint.com/offers needs to renew the certificate so Ppl can browse it safely.

Wondering did they do this purposely, to stop ppl from submitting/checking rebate...haha this is also a good site to see if they are having any rebate promos....

@all, plz inform them about the site certificate if you are contacting Marci. TY

I wouldn't risk it. Try to add a line instead then cancel/port out the new line.
