If you INTENTIONALLY wreck your phone hoping to get the insurance company to give you a new one you are the problem. It is a crime, insurance fraud, and IS the reason the deductible is going up (to discourage your behavior).

It doesn't matter if you do it once or a million times it is still wrong. A murder is still a murderer, even if he only has one victim.

Also, I received the notice in the mail as well, but if you look at all the phones and brands covered, HTC isn't even listed. Although, it does say if the phone manufacturer isn't listed, contact bla bla bla... but still found it odd.

Also, I used to have unlimited texts for $5 (I've been with sprint since august 2000). They upped the unlimited texts to $15 a month, and my plan never changed. It only changed when I did something to my plan (can't remember what exactly off the top of my head). I only remember that this is what happened b/c they didn't tell me it was increasing, and I called a few times b!tching about it, and they said that basically it only changed b/c i changed my plan.

I went with the limited text (like 500 a month i think), but that didn't work when i was sending over 2000 texts a month, so back to the $15...
I got the list in the mail... The HTC phones ARE listed...

HTC does NOT sell CDMA phones to the carriers. It only sells GSM phones to the carriers directly. As a result CDMA HTC phones are sold by UTStarcom. Have always been. If you look at that list again you'll see a line for "UTStarcom PPC6850". That phone is the Sprint HTC Touch Pro...

Also, it was posted earlier why the concept of grandfathering doesn't work in this case. Don't like it? Drop TEP or eat the rate increase and let it pass... You will pay the new rate irrespective.

At least the monthly costs are staying the same. If you don't make a lot of claims it isn't really a cost we need to care about.
