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.

1st month bill is $199 for 5 lines , due to phone insurances. I canceled insurance within a week. Now 2nd month bill came @ 65. So I paid $130 for $100 plan. Not happy with Sprint
I think everyone pays about that much for 5 lines, after tax is around $110 to $130.

but your 5 lines is just $65? why?

Because of overpayment from first bill...(the insurance charge is prorated )

You can call the customer service and have them refund the insurance fee (prorated for 7 days). I did the same for one of my devices.

In past, Chat support used to submit device unlock request after 50 days.
According to this Sprint site https://www.sprint.com/en/support/solutions/device/faqs-about-unlocking-your-sprint-device.html
" For postpaid customers with SIM unlock-capable devices, Sprint has chosen to simply unlock active eligible SIM unlock-capable devices without requiring our customers to initiate an unlock request. Once you meet the requirements outlined in the Unlock Policy , Sprint will automatically unlock your active eligible SIM unlock-capable device". Is it still that way, or you need to call and request now?

They only do this for business customers. For non-business customers, you still have to call in. People don't have to wait 50 days if the device was previously unlocked and got locked again when activated on this deal. I called and they unlocked my ZTE device on the spot since it was previously unlocked last year.

I have 3 phones on the Sprint deal. One is an unlocked Visible Moto E6 which is still unlocked. The other two are a preowned LG Tribute bought from Sprint, and a Sprint-branded LG Stylo 4+ bought on HSN. I plan to get them unlocked after 50 days just to play around and see what other carriers they can work on.

Hey those of you guys who did the Walgreens deal...

I had no idea how to even submit the stupid email offer code, and I had already set up service with 4 lines.

Can anyone help with this?

I purchased moto e6 from BestBuy for KS $25 plan on 1st week of Mar'20. BB listed as unlocked mobile and once I enrolled on KS, it was locked to Sprint. I asked chat support regarding lock status and they confirmed that it is locked to S and it requires 50 days to get it unlocked. Asked me to contact last week of Apr'20. During free year plan, my Boost two iphones were unlocked by chat support after 50 days without any hassle.

Currently unlocked XS ( unlocked at AT&T) is being used in S for active line. I hope there is no relock by S. Let me check with Chat and confirm.

You don't need to ask Chat to see if your phone is unlocked. Put in a non-Sprint SIM (doesn't need to be active). If it doesn't say "Invalid SIM", the phone is not locked to Sprint.

Thanks, Repped. I tried with inactive AT&T SIM and no "Invalid SIM" popup. It is confirmed that already unlocked devices are not locked to Sprint again. Only newly purchased devices from Sprint or with Sprint plan enrolled during purchase are locked to S and 50 days unlock policy will apply for those devices.

For some Android devices, you don't even have to do that. You can check UICC status. It will tell you whether the phone is only allowed Sprint SIM or any SIM (unlocked).
