I'm grateful for users that predicted this deal in both Target and BB deal threads. I bought one from the Target deal, and I'm definitely going to use this. Thank you, SD members.
The terms say you need to buy the 3 months directly from mint mobile. Doesn't say you can buy from Target or Best Buy. I hope you can but terms say buy from Mint
I checked with a Mint mobile agent and they said there is an issue with their system and the offer is not working right now on their site. She said there is no promo code. The 3 free months should be automatically added to your cart. She suggested trying again in a few hours.

Don't wanna hijack the thread or anything, but can anyone comment on the quality of Mint service?

I've been with AT&T for years, but with recent family additions, I'm looking to save money wherever I can.
I had Mint Mobile for a couple of years, up until recently. I only switched because they won't let you do month-to-month and I want to get a new phone and possibly change carriers.

they use t-mobile towers, so if you live in a place with good t-mobile coverage, you are set. the only times I had issues were traveling to Iowa, specifically Des Moines. they don't have great coverage there, nor great roaming agreements I guess.

also if you get into a place like a stadium, or a touristy area with thousands of people but not lots of towers, you will get bad service, as you are not the top tier customer - that would be t-mobile post-paid customers. I've had absolutely no internet and almost no ability to call or text in places like that. but that is a problem for all MVNOs, not just Mint. For me, I rarely find myself in those situations, so Mint was fine.

From the chat with mint mobile support:
"To answer your question, Unfortunately, you are not eligible to get the free 3 months since the promotions is applicable only if you can buy a plan on Mint website.
I highly suggest to request a refund in BestBuy then we will place your order today here in Mint website so you can take advantage of 3 months free."

Best Buy has $15 GC with purchase of $45 plan; $30 GC for $60 plan; $45 GC for $90 plan.
Right, that's not the 3+3 offer and ends Nov. 19.

I purchased 3 months unlimited from mint Mobile directly 43 days ago. If I activate the card will I get the full 6 months? I'll definitely activate it before Thursday and post the results.
I chatted with mint support in the app today. I've seen zero confirmation anywhere in the app but the rep claims I will get another 3 months of service after my 3 months of service ends. Either way I don't really care since I only paid a little over $20 for it anyways.

Was your plan purchased through BestBuy/Target or Mint website?

Reading the thread and I see a number of misconceptions about how this works and what's going on. Mint is generally cutting out Best Buy on these deals to try and stop people from repeatedly signing up for new customer deals. If you're thinking you maybe can get it by getting your sim at Best Buy, maybe think again. I'm not going to say its impossible, but you may wind up paying double what you thought you'd get this service for because they won't give you the extra 3 months. Mint gave me a real hard time over it last year, must have taken me 15 calls to them and just as many arguments to finally get it with a sim I got from BB on the last day BB offered this + 3 months deal thru Mint. Wasn't worth the hassle. They're really tightening up on this.

Also, for what it's worth, Mint's service isn't quite what it once was. Depends on location. I'm in NYC where there's a good deal of congestion, and service has really degraded from what it was a year or 2 ago. I'm talking data speeds in kbs, not mbs. So, if you're jumping thru a lot of hoops for this deal, it may not be as great as you thought it was anyway (depending on where you're located). My service has been so crappy I've been trying to work out a refund from them.

Finally, best way to insure you get this deal if you're already on Mint? 1) Have a friend purchase the sim on their credit card and pay them back so it's not under your own name. 2) Have a google voice number you can forward the calls to so that you can take any random new number from Mint. 3) When first registering the sim pop it in a phone other than the one you'll be using, then afterwards put it back in your primary phone so that a different IMEI registers in their system just in case they're keeping track of them. You do these 3 things, pretty much guaranteed you'll get your extra 3 months.

I chatted with mint mobile customer services representative, they told me that purchasing from mint mobile will not show additional 3 months but once only during activation it will be added.

However, when I asked about having a new plan purchased from Best Buy or Target, and they replied that activation for plans purchased only from mint mobile is covered and not from bestbuy, etc.
Can anyone confirm if they have activated any plan purchased from bestbuy or target and got this offer? it will be extremely helpful.
I tried didn't work

Do they charge recovery fees & taxes on all of their plans now when you go direct thru them?
