Sprint 5GB internet cap

[[sammich]]

Don't worry... that's KB's because overages are charged per KB.

Don't worry, you're only at .19GB

You should be safe, just don't go crazy with the next 4.81GBs

Wow...are you sure you used 65 gb for the month?that's lots of bandwidth.

This is right from an email that was forwarded to me by our rep... I assume this is only for connection cards.. not Phone As Modem..


If you sell a Connection Card between 6-15 and 7-13 it is very important to educate you customers on the following:
·The connection card will be unlimited until 7-12. On 7-13 the plan will change to the above limitations.
·The customer will receive a bill message in about three days letting them know about the changes and giving them 60 days to opt out of their contract. It is very important in order to avoid churn and a charge back to educate your customer before they receive this bill message.
·Explain to the customer how big the 5GB limitation/300MB Roaming limitation is.

i walked into sprint today and pretty much interrogated the guy that works there! i asked him about the 5gb internet cap, and he said that its not towards the cell internet. its for people that use their internet on there laptops, i know theres a techinical name to refer to the service but i dont remember what it is. SO THE INTERNET CAP IS NOT FOR CELL PHONE USAGE! I REPEAT NOT FOR THE CELL PHOE USAGE!

Yeah, I spent a few hours today (typical Sprint CS) trying to get to the bottom of this. I FINALLY got someone who knew what they were talking about to tell me that this applies to data cards and PAM, but not for standard browsing on the phone.
