Bring your eligible phone to Sprint and get FREE Unlimited data, talk and text for one year. There’s no annual contract and you can keep your phone, number, accessories, photos, apps and music. It’s really that simple.

You’ll get Sprint’s fully-featured Unlimited including:

    Unlimited data, talk and text
    HD streaming:
        Video at speeds up to 1080p
        Music at up to 1.5mbps
        Gaming streams at up to 8mbps
        Unlimited 4G LTE data for most everything else. Data deprioritization applies during congestion.
    10GB of high-speed data per line to use toward mobile hotspot, VPN and Peer-2-Peer usage. Once your 10GB is used up:
        Continue at up to 2G speeds (32 Kbps) on our network for no additional cost, or
        Purchase more on-network high-speed data for $15/1GB to tide you over for the rest of your bill cycle

This introductory pricing:

    Free service for 1 year for new customers who switch to Sprint and sign up on sprint.com/1yearfree between 6/9/17 and 6/30/17. Save until 7/31/18.
        You'll save more than $900 (compared to Verizon’s one-line unlimited rate plan) in the first year
        Switch your whole family and save even more!
        A standard $1.99 admin fee, $0.40 regulatory fee and other taxes and fees apply
        Your $30 activation fee is waived as part of this promotion. The fee will appear on your first bill and a credit will appear within 2 bills.
    Requires a Sprint SIM card, eBill and Sprint AutoPay ($5/mo./line discount applied within two invoices)
        If AutoPay is cancelled, you’ll pay $5/mo./line
        If AutoPay and eBill are removed, a $7.99/mo. charge will apply for Account Spending Limit customers
            Your Spending Limit is the monthly maximum amount of spending per phone on your account based on your credit decision
            For accounts with multiple phones, the total spending limit is calculated as the number of phones on the account multiplied by the spending limit per phone
    Must be a Verizon customer bringing new lines to Sprint. You must own the phone(s) you're bringing to Sprint.
    After 7/31/18, pay:
        Line 1: $60/mo.
        Line 2: $40/mo.
        Lines 3-5: $30/mo/line
        Pricing shown with AutoPay. Add $5/mo./line without AutoPay

I'm still not sure if you have to port in a number only from Att/T-Mobile/Verizon or even from any non sprint mvno.

Did anybody have success getting this promo even with a number from a mvno?

If my phone and number says it's eligible on sprints website, will there be any problems activating it?

I see over there, "-A standard $1.99 admin fee, $0.40 regulatory fee and other taxes and fees apply."
But how much is taxes and other fees?
Well that depends where you live.
How about NY or NJ?

Should be the same. You would just have to continue paying it off with your original carrier.

i see, just think would then loose my promo credit for phone and would have to pay a lot of money which would kind dip into the substantially for that free year. this prob only good for people who own there phones outright.

Just curious, you got this message when activating the sim or when you ordered the sim card?

i just tested a few imei's.
sprint iphone 5s and 6 worked with a tmobile phone number.
nexus 5x that was on FI didnt work.

if all sprint 5s work that is probably a cheap way to get this

Does passing the initial signup page to order a SIM necessarily mean this will work for you? Is not possible they will not allow the actual activation?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

I ordered a SIM for an iPhone 6 and can't get it to activate in an iPhone 5. I knew this might happen -- iPhone 5 is not listed as eligible.  Am I SOL, or can others suggest ways to get it activated with this BYOD deal?

With sprint the sim has to be assigned to the imei of the phone.

Switched to Sprint due to lack of service with Verizon (in NYC and Long Island) and could not be happier with my choice. Better price, service, and CS.

Thanks so for this deal, do I must sign up online or can I just walk-into the sprint store(trying to avoid the fee for mailing the sprint sim card)?

Can only be done online, no way to avoid paying for the Sim + shipping fee.

Thanks,  I have an unlocked S7 Edge I purchased on eBay several months ago and I get this error message:

"Phone(s) not compatible
It doesn’t look like your phone(s) will work on our network, but we still have great deals online to help you save. Head to our store and begin saving."

I currently have an ATT sim card.
