Re: How to buy the Diamond

Funny

I received a call from sprint quite a few times with them telling me "You are eligible for 75$ off the price of a new phone"


started happening about a year ago, however my bill is only 23$ a month

(30$ sero, minus 10$ a month (cause they accidentally changed my phone number a week after signing up, i *****ed cause i just placed an order for business cards before they did this)

so even though I pay $23, they said I am eligible... If i wasn't actually eligible (this whole 34$ crap) then WHY THE F*** would they call me (many different times) to say that I was and asked me if i wanted to buy a new phone, or maybe open a new line???

wtf?

Re: How to buy the Diamond

Weird. Perhaps they are cutting a potential full upgrade down to $75 at a 2year extension on an expired contract because you are on an unqualified plan (under $39.99)? I don't really like to even mess with customers that are like that because I only get like $2-4 which won't even pay for my lunch lol

Re: How to buy the Diamond

could you add a line, to get the discount on the phone so its not 550$. then take the diamond(on the line you added to your account), and say your touch ( the line you will be keeping) switch the number over in a few days. and cancel the new line you added?
so that you have the new phone on your original number, and your old phone ( not diamond) on the new line you added, and eventually will cancel.

would this work?

Re: How to buy the Diamond

i know that with Sprint ending their PCS Email, if you have a phone that is not able to get the new email program you are able to get another discount for a new phone

Wait.. so if you have a Vouge or a Mogul, you can request a credit? How would I go about asking for it? Should I say... "I am disseminated that picturew mail is not a option on my Vouge so can I get a credit because this phone was suppose to have PCS email?

Re: How to buy the Diamond

That would be nice lol but Sprint is trying to put a plug on revenue holes.

@Brock, no that is the oldest trick in the consumers book and they slap you with a restock fee equal to the cost of whichever phone you stole.

Actually that would not work since you have to keep your new line for 30 days before you can switch the numbers.
