Is it safe to port out now that my rebate status said valid? Or did you guys wait until you received the cards (whether it is virtual or physical)?

More Useful Information About the Prepaid Card
How does the 5% back feature work?
When you use your card at any of the select participating merchants in the U.S., you receive 5% of the transaction amount back on your card within 7 to 10 days. However, the 5% back only applies to signature-based purchases (or portions of purchases) made with the actual card. PIN-based purchases, purchases made at participating merchant locations outside of the U.S., and purchases of gift cards made with this card, may not be eligible for 5% bonus calculations. Bonus funds become part of the card balance and are treated as such for purposes of card and/or fund expiration. Qualifying purchase, participating merchant settlement, and bonus transaction must occur prior to card valid thru date. Only the amount of a transaction applied to the card at participating merchants is eligible for the bonus. If a transaction involves the card plus a supplemental payment method, the portion of the transaction applied to the supplemental payment method is not eligible. For example, if you apply your $25 value card toward an overall $50 purchase, you receive 5% back on $25, not $50.

is it possible to convert the virtual card to physical card?
my activation date was 4/1/20, so i am still in "missing is delinquent' state
I was able to change from virtual to physical. But timing is important, need to do it before the card has been issued, otherwise Sprint will charge additional fee for a physical card.

You are in a perfect position now. After 90 days, when your status turns to "Invalid", call to fix that problem. It gets fixed automatically now, but you would want to call mostly because during that call you can ask an agent to convert your card to physical. They will manually approve your rebate and convert virtual card to physical for free. Call the number that is listed in your RHQ "missing is delinquent" page.

As far as I remember, one of SDers here was able to buy VGC using MCGC at Staples and still got his 5% cashback.

I think that rule is not strictly enforced.

Venmo did not work for people here
I'll try to contact Sprint before they send my virtual cards and ask "If will they let me change to a physical card without a fee?"

I used the rebate cards at Staples, which does give 5%, to buy VGC. However, a $200 gc has a $6.95 fee, so you effectively lose 3.5 of the 5%. I lucked out, as Staples had a "fee free" sale on the VGC. NOTE: do ~not~ buy MC gcs at Staples - they are not accepted to buy MO at WM.

That being said, for me, it was the only "safe" way to buy a MO at WM. I believe folks have posted using the Sprint cards directly at WM to buy a MO with no issue. When my last $300 card arrives, I may try that.

You need to know the cancel trick for MCGCs to work at WM.

How long did you 5 back reward get to your Sprint Prepaid?

I used mine at CVS. Still waiting for reward.

physical card is like a regular card, you can purchase stuff in store and "swipe" that baby on the reader. virtual cards i would think, can only buy stuff online.
