I left sero but immediately applied a 25% to the 450 everything plan. Not sure what thats going to bring be down to tho. Probably around 50 bucks or so.

Yea ur right, ive been on the phone with sprint for almost two hours to try and get this phone on my account but no luck. The main problem is the plan. They said dont matter where u got the phone ur gonna have to change ur plan, there is NO WAY AROUND IT at all. But im fine with that because i have the phone anyway. So to all my free and clear people were gonna have to stick with the htc pro 2 or whatever phone u have unless u do like i did and have ur girlfriend open up a line so u can get it lol. But for now there is no way around this, so in conclusion u CAN NOT put the htc evo on the free and clear employee plan sorry!!!!

I'm still going to wait it out until middle of July to get a definitive answer. If by then, its still no, then I'll debate about changing my plan.

Yup, me too.

I currently have my Touch Pro2 under and an employee account. I'm not afraid to admit my credit isn't the best. When I tried to open up an account with Sprint under my name to get the EVO, I had to put down a $100 deposit and I was put under that asinine Account Spending Limit program of $150. It's a huge slap in the face considering that in the two years I've been under the employee account, I've paid all of my bills on-time and in full, I've never had my phone turned off, and I've been a very loyal customer. I had one bill that was even $600 because I had my TP2 charged to the account when it was time for my upgrade.

Sprint customer service has been no hep. They tell me it's nothing they can do. I'm seriously thinking about canceling my account by July 4th. My friend who works for Sprint whose account I'm under, tells me I'll be able to get the phone under his account and I'll be able to keep my current F&F plan of 1000 minutes ... unlimited web/text/pics ... unlimited nights/weekend ... all for $35. I'll assume he knows what he's talking about. He seems pretty adamant about it.

Right now, I can't see any benefits of keeping the plan I have right now under my own name. I'll have to go back to my TP2 briefly (it's gonna be really hard) but it'll be worth it. Especially since Sprint has me under this ridiculous ASL. I, too, hope my friend is right when he says I'll be able to keep my current plan. It's so cheap and it works great for me.

If you have a free and clear plan from a 3rd party vendor you can get it on there without a problem I just got mine done today
