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.

This one is an issue since it says denied. Call Sprint Promo and RebatesHQ cust service to see what can be done to correct this.

If it just says the following, then it is ok.

I have, on four of five lines. All five have the speedbump message.

I've read here to not contact Sprint until the status on Sprint's site says denied. So I am following that advice because I'm very lazy.

I have already received $200 WG gc, as well as $200 CU cash bonus.

BTW, all my lines were activated by the end of March.

I contacted 2 different Sprint reps and got the same answer-to wait it out. Also if Sprint's site shows denied to call in again. According the my bill, I activated on 04/09-which is within the promo period. However, both reps that I spoke to said that the promo ended on 04/08. This company does not like to do anything proactively.

If your first bill has billing cycle dated 4/8/20 to to 4/8/20, then you have active service on 4/9, if first bill dated 4/9/20 - 4/9/20, then you activated on 4/10, the first bill is backdated b/c their billing policy is to bill in advance.....if you were the one among the group of not receiving the $10 bring/buy discount automatically, then you are highly likely seeing the denied message on the rebateshq.

This is the right procedure of doing nothing when rebate is still under pending bc they are not sure if it gets approved or denied later, but we all know that ppl who activated after 4/9 will see denied/invalid on sprint site eventually and need manual approval.

People have contacted Marci's team, but it seems maybe she is no longer around or not really handling the stuff she was prior to the merger. People are getting contacted by regular customer service. No harm in calling RebatesHQ service / Sprint Promo folks.

Everybody here seems to see the speedbump message. Hence, the assumption is that it is a No Harm condition. Missing XYZ is ok, but anything denied appears to be problematic. What was your denied reason for the 4 lines?

Marci has confirmed on Twitter that [email protected] no longer handles customer service issues and is forwarded to regular Sprint customer service.

So now the question is: what is the best contact to solve these problems that regular customer service can not really fix?

if you are 100% denied, your status detail on rebates hq and sprint promo hub will both say "denied" or "invalid". i still see your status detail saying...." Your rebate has been entered and is scheduled for final processing.", so i would think you are still in the running. is it still "final processing" in both sprint promohub and rebateshq? if yes there is no harm in calling promotions support and say hi to the girls as i imagine they are probably bored out there.

My status was same as you. So I reached rebateHq through chat today, and interestingly chat rep said, at there side my Activation date is showing as 3/3/2020, whereas I activated on 3/31/2020. So he asked me to reach to Sprint promotion team to get the dates fixed.

I am not sure how they got Activation date as 3/3. I will reach to Sprint promo team tomorrow to get this fixed.

Your registration was denied because this is a port in promotion; an eligible port was not identified for the phone number registered.

The fifth is as follows:

The ironic thing is all rebates were registered at the same time, all the activations were at the same time, and all numbers ported in were sourced in an identical fashion.

Monday is a holiday. Maybe later in the week I'll send a message to "Marci," just to make sure I've done everything I can on my end.

Yeah, if you activated on 3/29 , 90 days is not until June 27 , so if it is not approved by then or it says denied on Sprint site at any time then I would call. I would ignore RebatesHQ

Yes, mine came with the eSIM pre-installed.

I am able to use my Mint Mobile physical SIM fine.

However, I never got an unlock notification and the bootloader is still not unlocked like someone else reported.
Thanks for the info. Working with Mint Mobile may not mean it's unlocked. Sprint was merged with T-Mobile and Mint is a MVNO of T-Mobile. My phone can work with T-Mobile SIM card from the first day even though it's locked. It's better to try a AT&T or Verizon SIM to double confirm.
