Yeah, if your sprint account qualifies for it then you can.

How do you know if your account qualifies for this? I have never tried to charge anything to my account so I don't know if that would work or not for me. Is there a way to find out or do I have to just wait until it's released and call in and try?

they basically just do a credit check, just chat online or call them they can tell you.

It will depend on a few factors, I'm assuming. If you are a new customer, I'm guessing you would need to have some sort of credit check.

Or,

If you've been a long time customer, in good standing, meaning you've paid your bill consistently, you should be okay.

I've been a customer since 2001 (started with Nextel), and have always paid my bill on time (and my monthly bill is $250/mo), they have no issues billing my account for phones.

I dont know how they choose honestly. Ive had them for 2 yrs and have had 2 overdue bills and a couple paid a few days late. Still I am Premier, which means nothing except that you can charge phones to your account.

Has anyone hear ever reaped any of the additional or the infamous "just because" benefits? I think its all bull

I have been with sprint for quite a while as well but like others have said, you want to make sure that your account is in good standing and that you don't have a monthly spending limit on your sprint account. Just call customer service and they can tell you just by looking at your account.

i 2 been w/ sprint since nextel days.. but i know i have a "no line limit". i also never seem to pay my bill on time but that has never been a prob. w/ me getting the phone credited to my account. the only thing i have to make sure of is that my account needs to be payed up 2 date then they will just credit my account. its kinda nice...get phone, pay later (sum times its 1-3 months b4 i get the bill)
