BYOD Activation for Sprint CDMA devices is back $0.99 again for a limited time: https://www.freedompop.com/byodpromo8
Also works for GSM/ CDMA combo devices like Nexus, Moto G4/ G5, iPhone 6/ 6S/ SE/ 7 (only Verizon/ Sprint models) in which case you can triple dip: CDMA activation + LTE FP SIM + 3G Global FP SIM
Make sure you do the following to avoid charges:
1) Use a virtual credit card (BOA or Citi cards) when setting up FP account. Set a $30 limit on the VCC (test authorization that drops off has been raised to $28)
2) After signup, immediately downgrade to basic free voice, remove the Premium services, disable premium voice and disable voicemail. Don’t wait until 30 days is over- you WILL forget
3) Add 10 FP friends to get additional 500MB- see thread
4) Activate phone- for Andriods call ##72786# and iPhones call ##25327# or ##UPDATE#. To get 4G LTE. Then update PRL and profile.
5) Your downgraded plan with have 500MB + 500MB more if you add 10 FP friends.
6) Use Google Voice for VOIP unlimited talk and text with hangouts dialer app, CSIPmobile, or any other VOIP client for voice and texting needs.
7) If you choose to use FP battery hogging VOIP app, you will have 200 minutes and 500 texts. FP is in reality a data only company. Not a text and talk provider over native 2G networks like every other cell carrier out there. You are better off using Hangouts + Google voice for unlimited talk + text VOIP services.
8) Close your virtual credit card so no charges go through.
