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.

Omg, my 1st KS account just changed status on Rebates hq site to:


Your rebate is valid and is scheduled for final processing.
What did you do to get them approved your rebate since they initially denied you saying you received a referral. Probably you can help hpham_53 out

Did it change by itself or how?
Or
How much time or hours or days it took after talking to CSR?

The invalid line turned back to pending yesterday based on what you said. It is now in-process which probably happened today. So it's not more than 3 days. Is this correct?
IIRC, it was pending last week, invalid on Saturday, then in process yesterday. So hopefully next week I actually receive that card.

It was my 2nd KS that was denied. But I have a feeling, who ever said eventually the status will change to approved is true.

Someone called me when I DMed @sprintcare, but I'm not 100% sure that really helped.

This 1st KS account status was still denied for invalid store earlier today.

My 2nd KS account was opened 1 day after this so I will know by tomorrow evening if the status for that changes.

Edit: @sprintcare

Someone from twitter team called me, but am not 100% sure that helped. I didnt receive an email like my 2nd KS account that it was escalated to promotions team.

Maybe we just all need to wait a few days and see what happens.

Like I've been saying, once you get the invalid message, just wait 24-48 hours to see if it changes. It might be an intermediate step.

Pending -> INVALID -> In process

I agree.

If my 2nd KS changes to In Process then the Promotions team is incorrect regarding referrals invalidating the rebate!

Oh, someone from Marci's team tried to call my wife (for this 1st KS account), but I was in the grocery when they called me and I didnt have all the account info. I doubt they were able to do anything since they didnt talk to me or my wife.

So after you got the invalid status on sprint site (ineligible sales location on rebateshq) you did not call sprint regarding the invalid status and it automatically changes to in process?! Did you mind tell us your timeline, and what you did?

I'm taking better notes now and I will leave my next account alone and wait a few days.

My next one is unlimited plus with 5 lines so that better be approved!

that one was ordered 3/20

so far it's still pending in sprint tracker, but in rebateshq:

There are some positive developments with my rebates but I don't really know what's going on.
My account has two lines:
*Line1 activated on 3/13, submitted on 3/15. Prior to the 90 days, everything looked good. Got denied on 6/13 and I've been calling about it with no luck. Still shows denied on Sprint and RHQ sites.
*Line 3 activated on 3/27, submitted on 3/27, let's call it Claim 3a. On 4/11, I saw on RHQ that Claim 3a had Invalid Activation Date so I resubmitted the claim using the same info, got a new tracking number, let's call it Claim 3b.
Claim 3a had been sitting since 4/11 with Denied - Invalid Activation Date then on 6/7 it changed to Denied - Ineligible Sales Location. I didn't pay much attention to it because it's "dead".
Claim 3b had been sitting with Speedbump and Missing Is Delinquent. I checked on it now and then because it won't reach the 90th day until 6/27.

OK, here comes the puzzling part...
Claim 3a now show as Valid and scheduled for final processing. Expect card in next 10 business days.
Claim 3b is still Pending, waiting for final processing.

So, after my calls, did Sprint Promo approved claimed 3a instead of claim 1 by mistake? Claim 3a was already denied back in 4/11, and Claim 3b won't reach Judgement Day until 6/27.
