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.

Woo hoo! The status of my lines on rebateshq.com changed again.

3 of 5 lines say approved.

2 of 5 say entered - I'm assuming those will change to approved soon.

No exceptions or roadbumps mentioned on any line.

I think the finish line will be in sight soon.

Last concern will be if BF comes through at the end of this month (27th).
Was there an issue with your rebates or u just called to see what was going on with ur rebates?

If they approve yours after 10 weeks (70 days) instead of 90 days like everyone else, that sounds like expedited to me.
Hope so. Will have to wait and see.

Something about invalid channel.

Unlike you, I'm not very good at taking screenshots.

i got the same response

also, now i see "Your registration has hit a speedbump, please call us at 844-450-7865, Mon-Sat 8am-9pm Central. Missing Is Delinquent" for the byod submissions. is that an issue?

and on another line

Your registration was denied because the phone number you registered was not activated during the offer period.

if anyone knows if thats an issue, would love to hear!
Call Sprint promotion helpline, initially I had this issue and called to get this fixed. Mine Activation date was 3/31, however in Sprint rebate system it was shown as 3/3, so this error.

Thx. You mentioned that the status changed again today. What was the status before it changed today? After you spoke to the promo dept, the status was changed to something and then changed again today, correct?

Too many questions! ;--)

OK, looking back, I called about the rebates Thursday evening at around 7:00PM ET. I think I mentioned the speedbump message. At the conclusion of the call, I thought all was well.

About 24 hrs later, I posted this:

Quote from YamahaRick :
After chatting with Sprint to resolve my rebate issues (or so I thought) last night, four of five are now in invalid status today ("Your registration was denied because the sales location of the number you registered is not eligible for this offer."). However, the fifth line is in final processing (w/ speedbump). Since all lines were purchased in the same manner, I am not terribly concerned.

At Sprint site, all five lines say pending.
Well, about 24 hours after ~that,~ all the errors were cleared, and I saw 2/5 entered; 3/5 approved. Maybe Sunday around 7:00PM ET I will see more lines with an approved status.

My assumption was updates to whatever database that feeds the rebateshq website would take place overnight. Now, to me, it appears they happen sometime after lunch.

All I know is I am quite happy right now, and hope the best for everyone that participated in this offer. If my last two referrals and BF all come through, this offer will have generated a very decent amount of pocket money for me.

Nope, every invalid message such as out of activation period or/and ineligible port in eventually will become "invalid sales location" on both rebateshq and sprint tracker. If you were the one who ported over from T-Mobile numbers, the your original invalid message said ineligible port...

Edit:
If you see Ineligible sales location on rebateshq, probably you can call sprint rebate team to correct the errors, it seems like the ineligible sale location is the final status update for invalid rebates...

You will have to call sprint rebate team finally if you have the following errors.
Initially updated few days after your rebate submission: invalid line items such as invalid activation date, invalid mobile number
Then updated on 5/15: speedbump along with invalid messages, eg out of activation period and ineligible port in
Finally (likely to update within the first week of your 3rd service cycle): ineligible sales location

Not true about rebateshq deny any activation after 4/9. My line activated on 4/10. Rebateshq just showing missing is delinquent.
Very lucky. My situation is exactly like yours, including dates (activated new lines on 04/10) but I received the invalid message because it was activated outside of the promotion period

I have five lines. I checked the rebate status, and got this:

"Your registration has hit a speedbump, please call us at 844-450-7865, Mon-Sat 8am-9pm Central.
Your registration was denied because your Sprint account type is not eligible for this offer."

I created my account without the credit check.

Am I denied?

No, maybe glitch in system. nowhere does it say no credit check option does not give you the rebate

All my accounts are non credit check and I have the speedbump message only. So I would say account type is something else?
