Quote from Woz2000 :
Have you tried using every variation of these cards at all retailers? Have you asked every prepaid card supplier and its clearing house??

If not, then it is a guess. And I'm not the only one here that think you guess at stuff too much. The problem is sometimes you present it like it is a fact and when it is wrong, people are confused.

They fail even if it is a one time payment because the retailer is classified as having monthly payments and some card vendors just block them all.

How do I know? Because unlike you, I have actually tried. Tried to make a one time payment at ebay (seller fees) and Optimum with a TCB card and some other places... DENIED....due to recurring payment.
I thought we are talking about the $50 cards from the referral. (I believe sprint only gives one version which is the 5 percent back on participating merchants MasterCard prepaid gift card) Prepaid gift cards vary by card issuers, card type and network processors, and terms differ too. A remarkable example would be the virtual gift card from the recent T-Mobile BYOD deal, which is transferable to Bank account. So I didn't intent to cover them all here, and referred only to the $50 referral cards

I go by the terms of this prepaid gift card and I already posted the links to you, these cards are meant to be used where the MasterCard is accepted by the card issuer, sometimes even your legit credit card from popular card issuers will be denied by some merchants due to many reasons...eg, chase visa credit card was rejected buying a phone from Visible... some ppl played around by using PayPal, or called the card issuer to clear out and transaction was successful the second/3rd/4th time while someone's transaction went through smoothly the first time.

I thought the phrases/words "I believe" "I think" "probably" "maybe" etc already signal that those were my opinions/guesses.....I never intend to confuse ppl, I shared them based on my experiences. I believe people were concerned/confused by the series of actions of Sprint, that didn't provide clear instructions/explanations, not me. They asked why, and I tried to provide a possible cause. The confusion already existed before me saying anything.

after having tracked this before on sprint website, i am now getting this 'no match found'. I signed up on 3/24. The same message whether I enter name/address, phone number, or the tracking number they provided. The rebateshq just shows 'connection timed out'. Good grief...
No way, are they doing a regular maintenance!? Hopefully they will not hide the details from us after the maintenance..I shouldn't delay paying my third bill if they are updating the rebate status tonight

What happened to people who were having this msg on rebatehq.

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

Hopefully the pending charge will be gone soon.

I would use the name on the card as the cardholder's name...
I received email today saying that the balance on the card is now $50.

So 10 days to clear a "pending" charge that was immediately rejected by T-Mobile.

The speed bump message is still there so this was just a regular maintenance, IIRC they updated the rebate status on 5/15 or 5/16....

Swiped my $50x4 referral cards at Staples on 6/10. As of 6/12, I got back 5% cash back on all four cards ($2.50 x 4). A measly $10 but money is money Smilie

Well, it took another 30 min call just now, but it appears all five $300 rebates are now in the clear. I had an issue on 2 of 5 cards, but I was told I should get them by the end of the month.

OK BF $400 cashback … I should see you in two weeks! Come on down!

No new status for my line 1 which was activated on 3/13. Today is the 91st day. Rebatehq still shows Speedbump and Sprint web site still shows Pending. If nothing changes by tomorrow 6/13, I'll call Sprint.

Omg I saw that you still haven't received your referral cards, I believe they should already arrived b/c my referral updated on 6/6 arrived today.....use contact us to inquire the card balance if $50 still on it, ask them to reissue. Also, update your address with apt number by calling sprint rep to do it for you. Otherwise you $300 cards will likely have the same result as the $50…delivered to a random unit # of your address.

Btw, this is also the sprint rebate team who handles the referral too. (Not sure if you want to mix it up with your $300 to complicate the situation)

Thanks for helpful comments.. thats really good that you remember and read about referral issue..
The $300 ones should not have issue because those i selected as virtual cards...

Are you sure sprint rebate team is same for this $300 promotion and the referral accounts?
My issue is that i had a sprint acct like 1 year ago.. when i opened new acct i was sent same referral link with new acct.. the reason of rejections is that they are using old phone no and saying its not sprint no.. so i have to ask them to update my sprint new referral acct with current new number,

1 of my refer cards did not arrive. I did the refer 'contact us' page and said 1 was missing. They responded with a message saying that card was mailed on 5/28 and to wait 30 days for delivery. They also said Sprint is not responsible for lost or stolen cards.
