thats a load of crap, the ONLY time it should reset is if you are upgrading to a new phone while using that a rebate.. i mean if you paid flat out for a phone they wouldnt do so either...so thats garbage.. call again and tell them to do an esn change and let it be known that its a self owned device so they dont try to reset your rebate.. and tell them if it does reset you will be leaving sprint.. (trust me, when you want anything from sprint jus bluff it out and they will suck your toes
the only downside if any is that they will prolly charge you a 18 dollar activation fee.. each time you do an esn swap, but you def shouldnt have to worry about losing your rebate..
oh an for the record.. if your rebate does somehow get reset while this process is done, be sure to raise hell, because they CANT FIX IT so you will be screwed.. unless you revert to option 1 like i said earlier and bluff like you are going to cancell an then they will definately work something out, they prolly will give you the same discount on whatever new phone you wanted anyway.. i tell you, you can make sprint your b**** when you threaten to leave, because they will do about ANYTHING to keep your business lol
