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.

You should be able to open one account with another provider and port in 5 lines. Several options were discussed in the last 3-4 days: Tracfone, Xfinity, H2O, Numberbarn, etc.

Yep, once you're into a new billing period, you're obligated to pay the bill in full, even if the bill isn't generated yet. From reading Sprint web site, they don't do prorate or partial refund.

FWIW, I read T-mo's Q&A by their reps and they say they don't prorate the final bill. However, I cancelled my T-mo lines on June 2nd with the billing period ending on June 15th and the final bill shows a credit of $23.41 (full month is $79 with taxes and fees) which they say will be sent via a debit card.
Interesting, I didnt think tmobile did pro-rated credit on cancellation

Ppl wonder if Postpaid carriers prorate final bill...(I initially thought they don't prorated since almost everybody said so and based on my own experience) but hpham_53's case about T-Mobile triggered me to review the service agreement of each Big 4 carriers

My findings:
ATT and Sprint specifically state final bill is not prorated in the agreement.

While T-Mobile and Verizon didn't mention it in the agreement.

But Verizon has a support article about final bill that states

"Pro-rated credits will appear on the bill for any charges that were billed in advance after a disconnect date."

https://www.verizon.com/support/r...final-bill

So Verizon is likely to prorate final bill of residential services... not sure if it applies to Verizon Wireless Service.

One thing to note is that hpham_53 called to cancel T-Mobile service and gave up the numbers instead of porting out. Will not know if porting out to cancel or simply cancelling makes a difference on the final bill

Before you cancel and leave, make sure you're not into a new billing period, even if the bill is not generated yet. The bill is generated about 4-5 days into a billing period.
It says my next bill is July 23. Missed it by 2 days. Should I just cancel and see if they prorate?

If you don't use the service anyway, then cancel early and hope for a prorated bill (although myyueng just confirmed that Sprint terms say they don't prorate). If you actually use the service, then cancel it near the end to get your money's worth.

Got my virtual cards today. What is the consensus best way to switch to cash?

I have seen mentions of Venmo/PayPal but they appear to charge fees for use of a credit card.

Citi allows debit cards over the phone to pay credit card bill. limit of one payment per day.
if anyone tries this with virtual/physical card, please update if it worked or not.
it works for TCB virtual visa. need report whether BF virtual card does too.

if i remember correctly, i think i paid my sprint bill with the $50 sprint referral card. if you do it thru your sprint app, you can also choose whatever amount you would like to pay.

byod 1 year free is all done, ends 6/30. this is a new offer. the line is equivalent to a kickstart line but all you pay is tax.

I currently have 5 lines unlimited plus, am I eligible to add this free line? Thanks.

I don't see the offer banner in either of my 2 accounts (Kickstart lines). The "one free line" offer that I saw recently requires keeping the existing paying lines. No thanks.
I didn't see a banner either, but if you go too the other thread, it has a direct link how to ad free. I think it's in the 1st page, maybe the wiki

then you could be missing out on 5% cashback on that bill. paying a credit card bill means no fees or opportunity cost.
