Hi I'm hoping someone can help me out. I purchased an unlocked iPad mini 2 of Amazon for my daughter because her wifi one broke . I currently have a tablet plan with sprint with a Samsung galaxy tab. I went to apple and got the sprint SIM card but sprint will not activate it because I did not purchase it from them. I have spoke with like 20 sprint associates and they are all extremely rude. Is there any way of getting around this? The imei number doesn't come up as a sprint number so is there a way to change it to a sprint number or a way to get my sim card activated without going through them? I pay for a plan and unfortunetley am stuck in a contract and no data has been used for like over 6 months so it so annoying that Im throwing away my money and they won't let me use the device I want to. Thanks
