Has anyone tried four lines on both Sprint and TMo?
Does Magenta Business qualify for this offer? If yes, I may go for 7 lines. 4 on Sprint and 3 on TMo (brother's acct).

Thanks, buddy. The code was 300BYOD313 (March 13 is when the promo started).

The sprint BYOD page doesn't show any offer info like the $300 promo. https://www.sprint.com/en/landing...:Shop:BYOD

www.sprint.com/offers shows the info about this offer if you enter any date between 9/18 and today for purchase date and enter the code 2020BYOD1.

Thanks
And no notation of $250 in cart either? I'm not going down that Sprint BYOD road again, but I hope some of TMO has rubbed off on them in this area. . .
Yes with TMO you still have to sign up for the rebate, but the system knows, eventually, that your are Qualified for the rebate, without having to click through the right page or see the promo in the cart. Same with free line deals. . .just have to add an additional line to your account, and in most cases the computer will adjust your account to reflect such, eventually.

I would guess just ordering a BYOD line is now enough with Sprint as well, and then then submit the rebate as in the past.

The 3rd (free) line is not automatically added. You'll have to activate it to get it. If you activate it with a new number assigned by T-mo, you will NOT get a $250 GC for it. If you activate it with a ported-in number, then you'll get a $250 GC for it. The $250 is tied to porting in a number, and not dependent on whether or not you're paying for that line.
Hi Pham, should I open 3 lines (1 line will be free with 3rd line on us) then chat with CSR to get the Free line on us which start on 09/18. Can I douple dip?

Link for The ebay numbers say bellsouth mobility ga on the sprint porting eligibility page?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/254565218033


They say AT&T mobility on free carrier lookup so should be fine. Seller sent in like 5 minutes, put zip code in message when buying if you care what number area codes you want

So no go for Google Voice numbers?
Depends. I tried with my Google Voice number for another deal a few years ago, paid the $2 or $3 to Google just to find out that the number was a landline number that wasn't able to be ported to cell service. Couldn't even get my money back from Google because they specifically state that this fee cannot be refunded under any circumstances...

Its very confusing going thru all the posts. Can some one please post steps to replicate the deal as a new customer. Thank you for your help.

Here is what I am assuming and correct me if I am wrong.
1. Buy ATT numbers from Ebay - 4 of them.
2. Open new account with Tmobile. Order SIM(s) - 4 of them. Pay the charges for SIMs.
3. Beg for inside type 1 code in the meanwhile while waiting for the sims.
4. Go to https://insider.t-mobile.com/, enter the code and 1 phone number you will port.
5. Once sim arrive, active them online, pick Megenta plan (140 for 4 lines).
6. While activating enter code "2020BYOD1" for all 4 lines..
7. Wait for the rebate..

I am I correct or missing anything please.. Thanks
You need to register one number with the insider code first. Verify the code is for type 1 and that no one has claimed it already. Then use for your own registration after this verification.

Are you opening a different Sprint account? I just checked - I canceled Sprint lines less than 90 days ago. But I have an existing TMo account, so I should be good there.

If MVNO doesn't work, can I port my number to Xfinity Mobile and then port out to T-Mobile right away?
One of my MVNO shows AT&T, but others show Jolt Mobile.
I know Costco rebate doesn't stack, but can I activate my account at Costco to save SIM card fee and activation fee?

Added BYOD to the cart but check out page is spinning without moving to final step. I hope it requires call to them to re-activate the account first before any action on our closed accounts.

I already have an existing Sprint acct (credit check). For the 300 promo, I had used No Credit Check and that has been closed since there are no active lines.

Thanks. I will call Sprint Promo dept tomorrow to confirm this first and then just follow what you suggested. Even with $300 promo, existing customers were adding new lines without promo being displayed on the check out page and they all got the rebates.

But won't the 90 day rule become the roadblock? They want u to activate all the lines that were cancelled in the last 90 days and then add new lines?

I dropped my no credit Sprint account about 45 days ago. On TMO since June free line promos. Tried to open another TMO account on Thursday with Wife (same as no Credit check Sprint) so that I could do insider hookup 20% plus free line plus BYOD's (to take the place of my account without 20% hookup) and couldn't without going in to TMO store as the computer system for me and reps were saying "still a sprint customer" login to Sprint etc. and account was flagged.

And if I wanted to go back and reopen Sprint account, I wouldn't be getting any of these BYOD's right, as it's been less than 90 days (actually just under 45 days which means even under old Sprint System my SSN is still there) since cancelling the lines. . .

Hey Tuxedo and Kenpet, somebody should start a thread on the Sprint $250. . .
