No this is not a joke. If you have in the "spending limit program" ... aka 90% of Sprints customers...basically this means if you HAVE any sort of spending limit no matter how much it is or if you've ever gone over it, Sprint will now charge you $4.99 a month on your bill.
The way to get around it, is to set up automatic credit card payments. If you do that then they'll wave the $4.99 fee.
If you're on a plan that doesn't have a spending limit then you won't get charged.
Sprint is reeeeeally hurting right now, and their lame ass CES speach, and this new fee for anybody with a spending limit proves it. Oh and I wouldn't get too excited about any WiMAX phones coming out any time before 2011, if Sprint lasts that long.
Oh....oh what does that Phone say at the top...oh, oh, T-Mobile. And that's the U.S. version of the HD2 right? Oh hi T-Mobile here's my number. And I'll have the roaming option so I can use AT&T's network and I have the greatest phone on the market and can utilize any U.S. network. My Diamond will do for now with all the bells and whistle's of an HD2 but Sprint is really pissing in the wind at this point if they think they can stop people from leaving.
