Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!
 

1) Yesterday Morning (2/2/09) I went to the Self-Servic Solutions Page on Sprint.
(http://www.nextel.com/en/services/se...olutions.shtml)
2) I clicked on the "Self Service Phone Replacement page." Link in the middle of the page
3) Followed the prompts and filled the information like a good little sheep
4) After filling out the forms, it displayed to me what phone I would be receiving.
NOTE --> I did this several times over the past 5 days until it finally said that I was receiving a TOUCH PRO as a replacement.
I kept cancelling the request until it finally showed TOUCH PRO yesterday morning
5) I received an e-mail a little while later that basically said:
Dear Valued Sprint Customer:

6) I sat back and patiently waited. I didn't bother to track it. I didn't both to offer it milk & cookies. I did nothing. I did a simple implementation of patience.
Just be patient!!! Don't freak out!

7) UPS showed up today at 10am
----about 24 hours after I placed the claim

8- The package ships from Louisville Kentucky

9) I never received a tracking number or anything.

Package arrived with everything. Weight was approx 3 lbs. I recieved CD's or software, the phone, proprietary USB cable with charger, headphones, 1 GB micro SD card.......

I EVEN RECEIVED AN EXTRA BATTERY!! That's awesome.

Notes:
-My Mogul was less than a year old. I bought it in May of last year.

I don't get whats taking so long for others and some get theirs right away. Back to waiting I don't know what time the ups guy delivers around here. I have to pay my rent still so it might be in the office as I live in a complex with the joined locked mail boxxes. Sometimes the mail that's 2 big to fit in the box goes there. I just figured if it had been delivered by now it would have shown up on the ups site.

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!
 

I think it just depends. I tried over 3 days and kept getting the Mogul. Waited over the weekend and tried again yesterday morning: BAM! TP on its' way. I really think it is just a matter of timing, when they have refurb'd Moguls in the system and when they don't.

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!
 

No matter how many times I go to the Self Service Solutions page, and try to file a claim, all I am shown is that I will be receiving a reconditioned mogul as replacement.

Any ideas, anyone?

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!
 

has anyone tried doing this without insurance...?? how much does it cost or does it vary?

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!
 

Just be patient. Like I said, I had to keep trying and trying. I tried about 2 times a day. I even went so far as to make a text file of the response I was giving so I could just copy-paste.

I could almost guarantee you there is no rhyme or reason to it. Just luck and persistance.
