Can someone verify this USA S8 Promotion.

Preordered the Phone on Sprint. From the fine print it looks like it doesn't go live until 4/10/17?

Is that everyones understanding, for those that have pre-ordered we will just 'be able to register' on 4/10.

Valid Purchase Dates: 3/30/17 - 4/20/17

You won't be able to claim a promotion until you have your phone.

Mine is coming from Samsung so the promo items will arrive with the phone.

Both the IMEI and the Wi-Fi MAC address will be required. While the IMEI is listed in your order, you'd have to power up your phone or at least read off the MAC address on the box's label, ensuring that you have to have it in your possession in order to register.
