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.

WTF, I received an email from promotions department:

Your account does not qualify for the Switch to Sprint, Bring your own
Phone and get a $300 Prepaid MasterCard promotion since you already took
advantage of the Referral Rewards Program which is not combinable with
this offer.

Please note that you can only participate in either one of the
promotions.
How many lines did you activate?

Why did you received this email? Is this the normal rebate status notification email regarding your tracking number? Or you emailed them or you called in for an escalation because you received "ineligible sales location"?

My status changed today to this:
Your registration was denied because the sales location of the number you registered is not eligible for this offer.

I believe ppl with 1 line will have a hard time to fight for it…since they tried to make their denial reasonable.

If that's an actual restriction, then it's not being applied uniformly. YamahaRick received both referral and $300 rewards (along with C.U. and Walgreens).
This is unscrupulous behavior on Sprint's part. Referral reward is not an offer. Not to mention that it is not uniformly applied as you pointed out. There was no reason for Sprint to do this offer and leave such a bad taste and legacy. So many people maybe trapped in this situation and getting screwed. In our upside down society, corps can commit any fraud and usually get a slap on the wrist if that. We let criminals loot billions and trillions on Wall St and let them go scot free, while killing people for petty stuff like selling loosie. WTF.

Well I activated lines and submitted rebate on 3/20. My billing date is the 24th of every month so I already have paid 3 bills which included the new lines (3/24, 4/24, 5/24).

As of today, status is still"
Status Detail: Your rebate has been entered and is scheduled for final processing.
Invalid Reasons: Your registration has hit a speedbump, please call us at 844-450-7865, Mon-Sat 8am-9pm Central.
Missing Is Delinquent

So should I be expecting a change after paying the 4th bill to come out 6/24?
Like others, received an email early today and checked status to see:
Status Detail: Invalid.
Invalid Reasons: Your registration was denied because the sales location of the number you registered is not eligible for this offer.

So we call 844-450-7865? What happens if this number does not provide any resolution?

Also, I did not do referral offer, just this $300 offer for 2 lines

Just call them and tell them the rebates got flagged INCORRECTLY to invalid today and you are calling in to correct it. Just keep calling them 2-3 times a day till the status changes.

Hope u didn't do any referrals. That's another headache it seems.

It doesn't say, but that is what two people, who received referral rebates, were told when they called to correct the $300 rebate status.
