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 got a message

"Your registration was denied because the phone number you registered was not activated during the offer period"

I got the sim delivered on 4/8 and activated it on 4/14.

Is there a way I can get this resolved or I stand loosing this promo? Please suggest

Yes, the unlocked Sprint LG Tribute works with AT&T. I used mine to do the AT&T deal even while the Tribute was still being used on Sprint. Their two systems don't talk to each other.
That 's great to hear. Thanks.

Give it a few day. YamaRick also have same date shipping date but one arrived later than the others.... 855-512-5929 this is the number to call for card replacement if you believe it is lost on the way.
Sure enough, I am getting the second $300 card in the mail today (Informed Delivery). Thanks for the reply!

Activated phone on 7th April ($128paid while ordering)
2nd bill due may 30 for billing April 07 to May 06 -paid
3rd bill due jun 30 for billing jun 07 to jul 06 -paid
4th bill jul 30 for billing jun 07 to jul 06
- to pay on jul 30 (guess we pay and port out)

So if I port out on July 15th once GC is delivered will they not send a final bill for billing period July 07 to say July 15th

You activated on 4/7, so:
1st bill covers 4/7 to 5/6
2nd bill covers 5/7 to 6/6
3rd bill covers 6/7 to 7/6
4th bill covers 7/7 to 8/6
Although the 4th bill isn't due until 7/30, you can manually pay it now (doesn't affect autopay discount) and port out anytime before 8/6 without owing any money.

They already generated the bill, covering service days from 7/7 to 8/6. Pay it on 7/30

I don't know whether or not Sprint gives any kind of refund if you terminate service before the end of a paid-for period.

* T-mo: my last service period was from 5/16 to 6/15 and the bill was $80 ($60 + $20 taxes and fees). I paid it early and ported out on 6/5. The final (printed) bill that they sent me shows a credit of about $23 which they said would be paid out via a debit card. Haven't received it yet.
* AT&T: my last service period was from 6/9 to 7/8 and the bill was $150 ($120 + $30 taxes and fees). I paid it early and ported out on 6/26. I checked last night and the account showed a credit of $38. Another member was told by a rep that they would mail a check in 3 weeks.

So, if you don't really use the phone service and don't plan to stay with Sprint, close the account as soon as you can, the refund (IF THEY DO IT) will be more than if you wait until later.

See samsung pay swipes the card same way you would swipe a physical card.. So if your real card would prompt you then even a swipe with samsung pay would prompt it..
Terminal does not know if you are swiping a physical card or you are swiping samsung pay because samsung phone uses same magnetic technology in a real card..

I have neither used a physical gc from here nor i have used a virtual card from this deal...
I am telling you about samsung pay which i have used many times with my other cards in past.
I tried adding Physical Gift Card from Meta Bank to my Samsung Pay. I couldn't add it. The error said the bank (Meta Bank) doesn't support Samsung Pay for this card yet.

I was not aware how to add new cards into Apple Pay since my default payment method was Apple Card in Apple Pay. First time I added VGC and changed the default payment to this card. Just now I placed 5SIMs at Bestbuy by using Apple Pay and $5 deducted from VGC.

Can you transfer to Bank ?

Did you/anyone selected Bfg Payout method as Visa card (to get 5% extra) and transferred to Bank?

No. It didn't allow me to transfer. It says Blackhawk doesn't allow to transfer or some kind of error message.

So best bet is Paypal/Venmo payout....too many cards/payment coming up, so tough to manage, will skip 5% ...

What's odd is that I received email from Sprint yesterday morning 5am timestamp confirming my promotion like it was a new promotion and the 90 day clock was starting over. Same tracking number.

Not seeing these emails I called yesterday around 5pm and rep said she would manually approve. Unless the email timestamp dont think it was related to my call. Hopefully it will update on the rebate site by Monday.but its frustrating still seeing it denied after rep said she was manually approving.

Here is an update for the 4th SIM.

SIM not added to my acct. Activated without creating account. No issues.

DO NOT ADD SIM TO YOUR ACCT PRIOR TO ACTIVATION. Tracfone

One more to go. Tomorrow is the day.
Same update for the 5th SIM. All lines ported out.

Tracfone acct num for a given line is last 15 digits of the SIM card, but the acct PIN is the same if they are all under the same account, correct? Thx
