If Sprint is going to reject GV ports, this is going to end badly for a lot of folks here.
I used some GV numbers and they are still progressing nicely, these are GV numbers that I had on my GV account for a while. If you had used fresh numbers there is no telling where they were previously. They could have been in fact project FI or Sprint numbers before. JMO

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.
You will get it eventually for the other account. 3/25 got notified on 5/30 and 3/31 got notified on 6/2, not sure if the denial notifications go by activation date or rebate submission date since these two activated and submitted the same day.

I believe GV is safe to use as port in since GV is considered landline carrier.

If a number originally from sprint is dumped on other carriers such as GV/ATT/Verizon/T-Mobile, that number will reassign back to the original carrier after the other carriers reserve the number for a period of time (in case the owner/user of that number want to reactivate the number)

Eg, you get your number from ATT, port it over to T-Mobile and then lastly port to sprint, you don't want the number anymore and ask sprint to cancel your line, sprint will reserve it for a time and then give it back to ATT, the original carrier

This would make sense but the issue with that one poster is that ALL 5 of his lines have a problem. So that probably means this was most likely not the case in his situation. But all we can do now is just speculate until Sprint confirms.

It was just my guess, don't take it as solid info.
No, my 4 lines are from Tracfone (ATT) and one line from Visible (Verizon)...so reason could be something else...I will speak to Sprint later in day to find the reason

All 5 lines shows invalid.
That's not good. I read your invalid reason again - "Sales location of the number you registered" ---> It is not clear to me what that means. I ported 4 numbers from visible and rebates look ok for now. I submitted the rebate on 3/19.

My wife and I had no entries in Pending on 5/25/20 (they were either Successful or Unsuccessful), but she still hasn't received her 8 $50 GCs as referrer. Nothing new on rebateshq site.

I was referred and I referred 10 others on one account, but I only got 10 $50 gc. Do you know if the $500 max includes the referee bonus? So far my emails to Sprint havent resulted in an answer from them.

I don't know if your own referee card is included in the limit of 10. But I'm not in that situation to find out. My own referee reward failed (used it after line already activated). My wife got her own referee card, but she has only 8 successes as referrer, not hitting the limit of 10.

They state the following in the Terms and Conditions

"As a referrer or referee, you can receive $50 reward for each new account activation up to $500 per calendar year. Referral rewards will be fulfilled by Prepaid Mastercard®. They will be sent to your billing address on your account.

An existing Sprint customer, or a Sprint employee, can make up to 10 referrals or earn up to $500 rewards per calendar year.

No more than twenty cards will be sent to the same physical address within a twelve month period of time."

How many approval emails did you receive?

I don't know about cardboardbox, but Sprint web site shows I have 11 successes, zero pending, and one unsuccessful. I got 11 congrats email, but so far received only 9 cards. Rebateshq shows 9 referrer cards. How many cards do you think they will send me? Sprint works in a puzzling way.
