So even if you selected 2 lines in one Shared Data 3GB plan AT&T will split those 2 lines into two separated plans?
Yep. They did it to many people, including me (twice). My acct #1 had 4 lines, and they split it into one plan with 1 line and one plan with 3 lines. If I hadn't called them, the monthly cost would have been $180 after autopay discount instead of $140. Their ordering and billing system sucks.

For those that ported out of ATT after getting the $250 cards but before the end of the billing cycle, did ATT refund any prorated amount for days not used?

They did for me. I ported out about 10 days before the cycle ended.

1. With my acct #1, autopay was applied to the 1st and 2nd months (2 bills). With acct #2, they produced one bill on the 35th day that included 1st and 2nd months, autopay was only applied to 2nd month. Their billing is terrible and inconsistent.
2. I didn't make any manual payment, just let the autopay pay the bill when it was due.
3. For acct #1 and #2, I ported out around the 53rd day, after getting and using the GCs to buy money orders.
Thanks. Do they send SIM just as fast as Visible? My tracfone number expires on Saturday.

Is there any grace period withTF? Or once it expires, that's the end?

Thx.

If your order is approved, the process usually goes like this (in business days):
Day 1: order placed.
Day 2: order approved and is "In Progress". Port requests submitter to previous carrier. If no issues, port requested are completed around noon next day.
Day 3: Port completed. Order shipped by FedEx overnight by 10pm. You'll get an email with the title "Incoming. We've shipped your order".
Day 4: SIMs are delivered and ready to be activated.

With TF, after it expires your balance can be reclaimed within 60 days by reactivating, but the number can be gone immediately. Can't port out of a deactivated line.

I need help with activating the sim cards from ATT please!
After inserted the sim and went to ATT activation page, input the phone number and zip code, it says 'Looks like there aren't any numbers eligible for activation on the associated account." I restarted the phone several times , but it failed every time. Did I do anything wrong? Thanks a lot for any pointers.

That 6/30 date is wrong. Deal is still alive on ATT.com as "Limited Time", ending date unknown.

Woohoo! My $600 BF cb on acct #1 with 4 lines ordered on 5/3/20 became Payable today. Already withdrew the money. This account was ported out on 6/26, so they will pay on a closed account.

I never had that problems with my 3 accounts. It always found the order using one of the phone numbers being ported and my zip code. I just selected to activate all the numbers and off it went.

Try calling Port Activation Center (PAC), the number is 888-898-7685.

As far as I know, BF doesn't use the term "Approved". Based on posts in the Sprint thread, the cb starts out as "Verified. Est Payable xx/xx/xx". Then the day before xx/xx/xx it changes to "Verified". On xx/xx/xx it changes to Payable. What is its current status now?

Just curious...
1. When did you place your order?
2. How many lines?
3. What's the cb amount?
4. What was the Estimate Payable Date?
5. Do you still have your lines active with AT&T?
Quick update - I opened 5 lines with ATT but only 3 were ported over as 2 of them were released by my prior provider before I could port over as the plans expired.

I placed the order on may 2nd and kept the 3 lines open till today. Got $750 att visa card and $630 befrgl cash back ($600 + 5% visa card bonus). I have paid 3 months of service to att. Bfrgl cash back was paid out today. I redeemed all att cash and bfrgl cash on utilities so it's same as cash for me. Overall, it was a good deal, planning to move our of att soon as their plans are super expensive vs other options.

Hope this helps!
