I get sent to https://fed.sprint.com/ after submitting my info at insider.t-mobile.com. Is this how they tell me my number wont work because it was on sprint recently? So if I want to do hookup, I need to buy some numbers.

Could anyone spare me a 20% hookup code, or let me know how to get one? Thanks and rep as many times as I can.

Did you have to pay $20 per line service activation fees? Is there a way to avoid that. Thanks.
I simply asked the T-Force rep to waive the service fee and sim fees. He said he could only waive the service fee.

He posted a link in our chat session that allowed me to securely pay $30 for the service fee and the sim. He then immediately posted a credit in my account for $20 to offset the service fee. So basically I ended up paying $10 for the sim to be activated with the port number and shipped to me.

He said when the sim arrives tomorrow, I can just pop it in my BYOD phone and am good to go. Everything else is done. I also submitted the $250 BYOD rebate today. So net result is a free line and $240 in my pocket.

Just signed up for Magenta 4 lines w/ Insider Hookup 20% for BYOD.

Plan will be $140 per mo before 20% insider hookup, $112 after. This compares to about $100 per month i have been paying on Xfinity for inferior service. Worth the additional $$ for the better service plus perks, and hopeful additional free additional lines.

I'll get $250 per line for BYOD. 4x$250=$1000

I owed $1489.89 on my four devices, which I paid off and of which I'll get back $1412.73 from carrier freedom. If I owed exactly $450 per device I would get $1800 but some are <450 and one is >450.

All in, I'm making about $900 by switching from Xfinity:

+$1000 BYOD
+$1412.73 Carrier Freedom
-$1489.89 device pay off
————
+$922.84
Carrier freedom and this promo cannot be combined.

I have added 4 Magenta in cart, comes out total $140/monthly and $40 for the sim cards. Is there anything I should be aware of before placing my order? This is a new account under my wife's name. I took advantage of the similar deal back in April under my name, so it could be a headache to use my name again.
How were you able to do that online- I've been told we have to go to store, call in or do it via chat?

Actually, no. . .if you don't need to use it. The IMEI is what they need. . .
Can we use the LG Tributes from Sprint lol . T-Mobile byod checker says "This phone does not have the key features needed for use on our network." Not interested on the Extended Range LTE or Voice over LTE technology "features" but was wondering if it can be done.

Can we use formerly used T-mobile SIM's for the promotion? I'd imagine you have to call them to buy and activate the service that way?

I used several old phones: LG Phoenix 2, Lumia 640, LG G3, LG G6 to do the previous T-mo BYOD deal in April. They got the same message from the checker, but they worked for 3G voice and basic SMS text. I also used the Sprint LG Tribute for the AT&T deal. So it should work for T-mo if unlocked.

I had an unused SIM sitting at home. I don't believe you can reuse a previously used SIM.

Darn. I don't want to have to pay the $10 SIM fee and then the $20 activation fee.

Rep!!! Currently on the line with a T-Mobile rep and he is on 3 way with Credit Department to "take care" of Sprint account and hopefully open an account. Let see what he says as my ATT billing cycle ends on the 23rd.
