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.

What method u r talking about when u say u will get physical card and you will deposit directly to your checking account?
On a deal that I completed last year I took a prepaid Visa card to my bank and the teller swiped the card and deposited the balance into my checking account. I will try it again with my BF Visa card as soon as it arrives in the mail.

So you can add the Blackhawk Network MCGCs to Apple Pay by adding them to the myprepaidcenter online account, then clicking a link after you sign in in conjunction with the Blackhawk Network myprepaidcenter app loads it to Apple Pay. It shows up as a debit card, but is anyone able to load it to Apple Pay Cash? It shows as card allowed (because debit) but transaction fails every time I try a load it...

Has anyone else been successful buying Visa GCs at CVS and getting the 5% back? I only remember reading one person doing it

In case you use the physical card in stores and the register asks for a pin, try putting the last 4 numbers of the prepaid card.

Member swammer could do it at his CVS store (he's a frequent customer there). I couldn't do it at mine.

Yes, I finally got the 5% back from CVS. It took 4 days for the 5% back.

You'll need a cooperative csr that will accept credit and allow multiple split payments. I think there is a maximum if 6 swipes.

What bank?

I dont think these will work. These are Metabank and has no cash access/withdrawal.

The issuer of the previous one was most likely NOT Metabank.

Finally received my 5 x $300 virtual card this morning. I joined on 3/30, I see I am charged
3/30 - 3/30 $100 + tax
3/31 - 4/30 $100 + tax
5/01 - 5/30 $100 + tax

I am confused by sprint's bill, My last bill that was generated on 5/31 shows Bill Period: May 01 - May 30, 2020, I assume it is for Jun service?

If I cancel today, will I still be charged another $100 for July? thanks

I just checked the emails and they actually don't even have the last initial. Just a first name.



Quote from hpham_53 :
The Successful/Unsuccessful list displayed when you use your referral link shows the first name and last initial, but the email shows the full name of each referee.

I had to email Referral Support several times to get them to send the 8 referrer's cards that my wife earned.

Check your billing cycle date (usually your join date +1 day).
If you reached that day into the month already, you're going to have to pay the bill.

You need to cancel/port out before the beginning cycle date to avoid paying again.

It appears that your cycle date is the 1st... if so, you are already hooked to pay the full cycle right now.

Your bill due date is actually paying the current month you are in.

If the teller decides that he doesn't want to do this again or the bank system rejects the card-I'll spend .88 at Walmart to get a mo and make a deposit that way instead. Either way, the money is going into my checking account.

Here's one of the emails that I received. Each shows the full name of the referee.

My main use of the lines was for hotspot during pandemic "work from home." I thought the feature would go away after June 30 but it seems to have renewed for another month on my two KS lines. Being charged for a fourth month is less hassle for me if I have hotspot. My backup plan was Tello with 25GB hotspot for promotional price of 3.40

Activated - 4/1/2020
Submittted Rebate - 4/4/2020

Rebate Status yesterday 6/30/2020 - Missing is Delinquent
Rebate Status today 7/1/2020 - Your rebate is valid and is scheduled for final processing.

{on sprint site, status is - Your registration is valid and is scheduled for final processing. Your card will be delivered within the next 10 business days.}

I believe now is the time to call, and get the card converted to physical from virtual (before they email it).
I called yesterday and they said they cannot convert until the rebate completes processing.

Looks like "Invalid" status is being skipped now, Sprint seems to have fixed its system. The window to call and ask to convert a GC appears much smaller now. Please update us once you call.
