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.

Are you staying with sprint and taking advantage of the free line?
I had 4 lines on the 1 yr free plan for almost 3 years.
The rebates will certainly cover that but I'd rather use it for something else
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.
To summarize: you activated after 4/9, you got speedbump, missing is delinquent and out of activation period invalid message on rebateshq, called to clear these messages on 6/12, these error messages disappeared in 48-72 hrs, but then you got ineligible sales location, so you planned to call again but it changed to valid before you call.
Did you use a referral?
IIRC, you didn't use a referral? Just double checking
I can't stop worrying unless someone who activated on/before 4/9 gets the rebate status automatically changed to Valid from invalid (ineligible sales location) without calling after it became invalid...because Marci's team promised to those who activated after 4/9 that their rebates are already pre-approved on backend and just need to wait for 90 days of service

And I was referred by someone on here, not the referrer
1.To get a free line I still need to keep the current paying line(s).
2. I don't use cell service much. My prepaid Tracfone that costs $50-$60 for 1 yr of service and 1500 minutes, 1500 texts, and 1.5Gb are more than enough for me for 12 months.
3. After this experience, I hate Sprint.

Have you tried reaching out to Marci?
My 2nd KS account that the promotions teams says they wont approve still says invalid. Im hoping that the status will change in a few days.
What's the easiest way to cash these out? You can't even add all the cards to a single account in myprepaidcard.com. I was able to add to Apple Pay. But can't transfer to Apple Card and cash out.
There's also no way to cash out to bank account like wirecard GCs from T-Mobile promos.
If these 2 cards really do cancel each other out Sprint would need to specifically state that under the terms and conditions for each. They can't be vague with details and expect customers to just go along it.
Sprint reps are mindless robots. That's why almost every phone call or chat takes 30 minutes because they need time to read notes/repeat info or come up with a new excuse. Keep fighting...

I've tried rebate cards before with my name on it and they see Rebate or something like that on the card and refuse it.
