Diamond payment?

[NikFin]

i paid $248.60 (after mail in rebate)

i got the activation waived and an extra $50 credit (cause I am special) that will come in the form of 2-$25 credits for 2 months.

I did however have to pay $12 for shipping and then tax.

so it goes like this....

$350
-100 (mail in rebate)
- 50 (extra discount)
+ 12 shipping
+ 36 tax

248 total!!!!

when they told me i had to pay for shipping i started whining that i may just go to the store and buy one, then they tossed out the extra $50!

good luck out there.

I had four contracts coming up for renewal on my corporate account. I called my rep yesterday morning and got all four Diamonds for a steal...

Price per phone: $349.00
Instant rebate (no need to deal with MIR): - $100.00
Whiny Customer Discount (complained until I got 15%): -$37.35
ATA Discount (for American Trucking Association which is 16%): -$33.86

That makes a total cost per phone of $177.79, plus tax. That means with tax included, I got four Diamonds for about $800. And with corporate accounts we get free FedEx overnight shipping, so my phones should be here today (yes, I already got the tracking information).

The only reason we got the ATA discount is because my company is an expedite trucking company, which worked out well. See, it's not what you know but who you know

I paid a total of 530.82.
I only got the 75 discount. I am on SERO 30mo plan. Been with it for 14 months.

How can you stay on the $30 month Sero and use the GPS? I will probably go with the Pro when it comes time and I want GPS but dont want to up my payment...

GPS requires data connection only, which is included in SERO. Both Diamond and Pro have GPS in-built.

I ordered mine online and got it for $379.39 after tax. If they honor the mail-in it's of course $279.39 but I'm not getting my hopes up.... Has anyone gotten the shipping confirmation yet?

I just got off the phone with Sprint. I was given a wrong order number earlier and that was corrected. So the agent said that the order did get processed on the 14th and the system is showing that I should have them delivered on the 18th. And she did check and there is no Tracking number yet. but I wouldnt hold my breath for it... I remember not getting a tracking number for my mogul long ago and the phone still came within 2 days. But again.. she said more than likely I will have the phone on Thursday the 18th. Hope this sheds some light.

hey i paid for the diamond last nite throught telesales with my credit card for $380. It weird, now on my sprint account online it showing a payment of $380.00. now my bill is like negative 380, anyone have that happen to them? is a glitch or what?

Thats happens...... The other day I had a credit of 1256.86 dollars. I just sat back and hoped the credit stayed there. But it cleared up within 2 days. Its normal. If you return phones to Sprint, thats money goes to you account then gets taken away when its updated. Nothing to worry about.

im praying that it doesnt go away, lol. Thanks
