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.

I dont know but I'm about to release my attack dog (the wife) on them.

They did give us 5 cents each, so there's that I guess.

For those of you that:
  • Have yet to spend your $300 Sprint cards
  • Have a Staples nearby
  • Buy a lot from Amazon
  • Have an Amazon Prime Visa
  • Will go to a WM to buy a MO

Now is the time to act!

With my fourth of five Sprint $300 rebate cards, I didn't want to pay the $6.95 x 2 fee to buy VGCs at Staples. So I bought 3 x $100 Amazon cards instead. A few days later, I received my $15 bonus on the Sprint card. I used that value to add to my Amazon gc balance.

What I ~should~ have done:

Buy 2 x $200 VGC at Staples; pay $6.95 x 2 fee.
Use the two cards to buy a $399.12 MO at WM.
Deposit MO into checking
Use Amazon Prime Visa to buy $300 of stuff at Amazon - and get 5% back on that
Receive $15 bonus on Sprint card since I used it at Staples.
Use $300 from checking to pay off Amazon Prime Visa.

Net: + $15.22

And if you can do this by Saturday, you avoid the $6.95 x 2 fees. So add that to $15.22 to earn $29.12 by following the above steps. An additional 9.71%!
you get 5% cb if you buy amazon gift cards? damn, already loaded my amazon account directly using the GC.

Oh ohk. I am going to wait. I dont want to jinx myself by calling prematurely. My BF showed up and I have requested a virtual card today. Hoping I can at least get that if nothing else. Lol.
I know that lately Sprint auto-corrected the "speedbump" and Missing Is Delinquent errors, but I don't know if they do that for the Invalid Activation Date. I'd call them and at least have the account notated that the order was placed by 4/9. The final decision still won't be made until 7/11 but let's stack it in your favor.

Fair warning, its a cumbersome automated system. Not sure who designs these things, but its certainly amateur hour.

it's a crazy loop and it's designed to get customers pissed and just hang up.

They already removed speedbump and missing delinquent messages automatically for him today..

If u see his latest msg on rhq then its only invalid with registration denied msg.. So i guess fully it will not be removed further without calling

How long ago did you open ticket? How long did it take for them to respond? Is there no recourse?

I cant imagine BF being totally screwed by Sprint, I feel like its BF screwing us
Hmm.I don't think the BF and similar companies will stay in business if they do not pay out. It's probably like what they said that Sprint ran out of money and are not paying them.

So are you thinking it will change from invalid to valid by itself? and thats why you will call after 2 days if it does not change?
I have emailed them right now. Will wait further until 7-11.

2 months ago Marci's rep said that status would not be corrected on rebate web site, but was reassured that all rebates would go through.

Then they should sue sprint if sprint had a contract with them earlier and now not fulfilling it.. If sprint gave them less money then atleast bf should give us reduced cb..

hahaha...i wish i could see the future or else i would have registered each line 5x. but it was done it good faith, cuz the first registration was invalid or something like that so i registered again cuz i say, the least they could do was to invalidate one of them.

you get rewarded well when you do things in good faith....drooldroolLMAO
Gk, Sorry to say this- Second submission will be rejected as Duplicate mobile number. On 4/6, I submitted my 2nd mobile number and again on 4/7 submitted same number instead of my wife's new number. My 2nd line had two rewards with same missing msg. Exactly on 7/6, one reward moved to duplicate entry. For valid entry, received VC on 7/6.

Someone def burned my local Staples LMAO and ruining it for the rest of the ppl. Never shop there and so I saw your post and was like eh why not 5% back. Went to one Staples, VC were not on the rack so I asked cashier if they had any in stock since I couldn't see any, she checked and said yeaa and said they were hidden ? Ok cool, pulled out my Sprint card, and cashier asked to see it and immediately called her manager. I said if there was an issue? Manager said I cant be doing that and has to be CC. Long story short, they gave me a big show over it. Went to my local Wal-Mart paid .88 and got my $300 MO instead.

Does WM accept CC for MOs? Would they do a PINless transation?
I went to Rite Aid and another grocery store. They wanted cash or debit card (with PIN).
