Unlocked Note 8 from samsung work on sprint ?

[AirWick219]

I was wondering if sprint would activate the unlocked note 8 that i get from samsung ? I travel alot and from previous experience with the note 5 sprint locked phone . It was missing some 4g lte bands which I was not able to use 4g lte overseas.

I tried to call sprint customer service but the person that I spoke to wasn't sure and kept asking me the imei number. I know that they have the "SIM KIT" for people who bring their phone and switch to sprint.

I was hoping to confirm that before I get that from samsung.

I was able to activate mine on Boost Mobil without previously having an account. I got the SIM Kit from Best Buy and it came with 3 SIM Cards. But you might have to go into a Sprint store and see what they say. But they would have to check the IMEI number, I believe. I have the Unlocked version from Best Buy.

The only website my IMEI came up strange on was T-Mobil's website. It said it didn't "recognize" the IMEI number and suggested calling. Verizon IMEI was okay. AT&T okay, but the website couldn't recommend a SIM card for me to use. But when I tried to check Sprint's actual website, it said you had to go into the store if you wanted to "bring your own phone."
