I wouldn’t go through chat, I’d speak to a sales team supervisor for the promotion. Not trying to misinform anyone because I was told the same as well earlier this week. But today, a different story.
Yeah I hope it works out for you but it does make more sense to only apply to paid off phones. Maybe i’ll call sprint tomorrow and try my luck with someone on the phone.
Yes I ordered on the 27th, my phone will be here tomorrow along with the kit.
I’m going to try right now I called last week and was told I had to do it at the time I ordered it..
Hell guys just got home from the gym, but I’ll give them another call even with the prior confirmation # and see what they say again, I’ll keep y’all updated. Let me just shower first. Because yes, I agree it does make more sense to pay a phone off first but I asked that question 2 times because I was told the same through “chat” but the actual rep and supervisor assured me otherwise.
Be back soon
Be back soon
About to call right now! Be back soon with info! Lol watch me get low balled lol
Just prior to getting my 2017 27” 4.2GHz 1TB SSD iMac a couple months ago, I went through and finally managed/unified my photos libraries after 7 years.
14k on desktop and 9k on iPhone.
After a couple of days, got them manageable and then unified them in iCloud, preserving folders in both libraries.
Still need to spend a bit more time and fine tune it, but down to 6.6k.
I then optimized storage in photos on my 7+, so it does not keep the originals there.
Turned off automatic backup on mobile, and just got into habit of doing it on desktop every few weeks, or every iOS update.
This has negated the need for 128 GB storage in my mobile.
I was a bit worried about “only” having a 64GB device again, but after checking on desktop tonite in anticipation of the X arriving tomorrow, I’m at around 13GB used space.
Amazing, and that’s with 6.6GB worth of music....
Crazy how my laziness had forced me to keep upping the the bar in the storage wars.

yeah they not budging saying phone has to be paid off but try a sprint corporate store they have deals
Good luck, I just tried. Was told the phone has to be paid off to qualify for the discount.
Of course, just waiting for the phone!
I’m going to try to find a affordable one tomorrow
They’re $60 the Belkin one is garbage, the Mophie one is finicky and has to be placed just right in order for it to work. I gave up with wireless charging. It’s a nice concept but I need reliability over convenience.
Yep, picked this one up back in September when I was randomly strolling through Target’s electronics section and they had it on sale for $29.99
It has worked fine with my wife’s 8+
She loves the convenience of just setting it on the nightstand and having a full battery in the morning.

I just received this one today, tested it w/ my gf S8+ with positive results. I like it because it’s slick and very thin with no bright lights. Also supports fast charging once Apple puts out an iOS update to support it. $13.99 currently w/ promo code on product page. If you guys buy a wireless charger, be sure to get one that supports fast charging (10W) so you don’t have to purchase another once Apple supports fast charging with an iOS update.
Im trying to find one that will charge 2 devices at the same time, my galaxy s8+ and iPhone X but there doesn't seem to be any glowing reviews on the ones ive found so far.
Ah I need this too for 2 of our phones. I will probably use 2 cheap ones for now until a decent one comes out later. Or better yet something similar to apple’s airpower charging pad that doesn’t cost $200!
Breaking NEWS- 313 iPhone X were stolen today in San Francisco out of a UPS Truck that was delivering to a Apple Store in San Francisco.

Sweet, thanks. Just grabbed one for my wife so I can have my Belkin back. When fast charge is enabled I’ll steal it back from her.
You are being lied to
I can assure you, my two 7+'s were NOT paid off, and they knew it because they:
A) Leased them to me 12 months ago
B) Confirmed the device status by asking for the serial and IMEI #'s
Screen cap from my confirmation email showing discount:
It's worth it to keep trying, moving up the supervisory chain.NOWHERE in any of the published documentation does it say anything about the device must be paid for. Its incumbent for them to make it clear in writing, which they have not, don't just take a CSR's word for it....
Here are three different ads from the site, nothing about owned device. Admittedly a bit vague, but that is actually in the customer's favor!
Sorry guys for the long wait! But nope this OFFER STANDS! Aslong as your an iPhone forever user, and have paid atleast 12months, you only have to turn in your ELIGIBLE DEVICE! OFFER IS AVAILABLE UNTIL NOV.16! Also listed the eligible devices! AGAIN THE OFFER STANDS! Speak to a rep, if not there supervisor! Make sure your talking to “sprint care” or “sprint sales” I PROMISE NO LIE! Aswell for new and current customers! OFFER IS ONLY VALID UNTIL NOV 16th! So phones must be traded in before then!
