Question for Sprint pros or employees

Recommended Posts

My sister lives in upstate NY and wants to switch her family plan over to Sprint. There are five lines in total,. Two of those lines are in Florida right now (my parents) helping out a sick aunt. She inquired what was the best wayt to do this and they told her the best way would be to have them go to a corporate store at the same time in Florida and they would do the transaction at the same time with my sister

This is problematic because my parents don't usually know when they can get away do this.

Is there an easier way to do this? Could an iPhone 6s be preordered at the BGM corporate store and have it be delivered at an Ordlando store? Your guidance will be greatly appreciated.

 

Oh and they were told that for the four lines no access fee promo, they all have to be done at the same time. Is that true?

Get all 5 in upstate but dont port the two numbers yet. Have the store overnight them to florida and once your parents get them call care and have the numbers ported.

So they would be overnighted to their address or to a store?

This. I've added my dad and my sister to my plan this way. Added lines in NY, and mailed the phones to CA. They went into the store and had their numbers ported over on the new lines.

    • Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
