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.

Why bother with this? Can't you just use the Sprint MC gc directly with all the accounts?

I don't have many bills, so when the $1500 (5 x $300) shows up, I prefer to find a path to (fee free) cash. If my cards show up by Saturday, I should be good. Staples does have a one card per customer limit, but their POS system will take several at a time; I ~think~ five, but don't quote me on that.
You can't pay tuition or property taxes or water/sewer/electricity bill with GC. Atleast not without about 3.5% fee. I get 5 airline points for every dollar I spend at Staples with my Chase ink plus biz card. So i pay all these bills and get ~5% cash back.

I don't like to keep these GCs for long due to risk of someone draining them illegally.

This is quite a bit of work (frequent trips to Walmart). But if I can get 125k miles per year, maybe the tradeoff is ok.

What does any of paragraphs one and three this have to do about your previous post about using BB? I do agree with paragraph two.

For $1500 (5 x $300), in theory, that would require one trip to Staples, and one trip to WM. Cash gets into my checking account, where I want it.

I received virtual cards with a TMo offer earlier this year. But I had no choice. I'll avoid offers with virtual cards unless there is a huge payout.
One way would be to add it to SamsungPay and use it pretty much anywhere.

I had five cards. I only had two bank accounts at the time, so I had to spend the other three online. You could only xfer one card per bank account.

With some merchants (utilities, insurance, etc) there isn't a way to pay with multiple $50 GCs, so you'll have to load them into a card like Bluebird to make big payments.
Can we partially pay our Sprint bill with a Sprint prepaid card ($50 from referral)?

I buy these GC (not just the ones we are getting as rebates) at Staples when they have no fee promo like this week. I buy 2-3k worth of these cards and get 15000 points/miles. I then load these cards onto BB at Walmart. You can only load about $1k per day on BB.

I use BB Bill Pay service to pay taxes and tuition (or anything else) without fee. I pay medical bills as well. Essentially 5% CB on almost every bill I pay. I used these cards directly as well. Pay home/car insurance. I buy MOs sometimes and deposit into my bank. Need to be careful depositing too many MOs in the bank that u use regularly.

The discussion about BB was in general and in broader sense than just these rebates.

No, after you transfer balance to bank account for the first card, delete this bank account from first virtual card, go to second card and add the same bank account and transfer fund to it, repeat this process.

Yes, you can select how much to pay for sprint bill per transaction, just need to register your card online to attach a billing address to the card so you can use it online

I don't know about Sprint, but some people made partial payments with their AT&T bills to get c.b. with their Chase cards ($20 cb per payment or something like that).

I used three of my $50 referral gcs to pay my second (and hopefully final) Sprint bill.

How do you manage to have paid only 2 bills so far? I activated my 1st line on 3/13, and have autopaid bills on 4/6, 5/6, and 6/6.
