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.

They update the rebate status on sprint site exactly 63 days after activation/rebate submission.

(Notify When you are in the 3rd billing cycle lol)
But still better than paying for 4th month if they manually approve you.

Folks, check your status on rebateshq one more time before the 63rd day so you know the real reason for the denial, after the 63rd day all denial will show ineligible sales location as the reason

One of Hpham_53's lines showed "invalid activation date" a few days after he submitted the rebate, that he submitted rebate the same day he activated the line.

Did you receive any Invalid line items on rebateshq originally?

My first account order date was 3/26 but still no update beyond speed bump. I wonder why yours was updated before mine.

Ok, I am wrong on the days, @dirtyherry reported on 66th day (see post #10446 and #10449, pg 696 if 15 posts per page)

Quoting from @dirtyherry
"Activation date & Rebate Submission date: March 25, 2020
Reason: Your registration was denied because the sales location of the number you registered is not eligible for this offer.
I did GV number port in"

The common they shared is they activated line and submitted rebate the same day.

I am gonna guess no more for sprint....edited original post

Are you receiving invalid/denial message like out of activation period/not an eligible port on rebateshq?

The promo terms say "Require Port-in from other carrier to Sprint". Based on the given reason, my guess is that Sprint didn't like GV as the source of the port-in number or that number had a Sprint origin in the past. Just my guess.

No, not on this account, just speed bump. I find it strange that someone who ordered and submitted rebate after me has had their status change before me. Hopefully thats a good sign for me... maybe I passed some validation without more errors. I do have an account with the activation date error, no movement on that one either.

If Sprint is going to reject GV ports, this is going to end badly for a lot of folks here.
