the ORIGINAL topic was that the OP what "threatening" to file suite againt best buy and/or sprint if they dont honor the plethera of documention he has from the bb site allowing him to purchase the evo while keeping his sero or providing something of similar price and and feature if they dont activate. he claimed that it would be considered breach of contract. then stated that if they dont he get a cheap evo to reasale. i was merely stating that i would be considered breach of contract imo bc you only get the disount on the phone for renew or signing a new contract. it would have made sence if this thread would have stayed on topic before getting foobarred with "special olympic winners". lol. now ill be one of the first to admint i breached as soon and flashed nrg rom on my tp2 and start thethering for free. yes its just as immoral but not quite as big a situation or as blown out of proportion since almost everyone does it and KNOWS it can be done.

Re: Success!!!! Keeping SERO $49 plan!!!!!!

From what I understand they wont be able to activate it even if they wanted to..the reps won't have the ability and will endlessly say ...sorry nothing we can do about it...

A plan with discounts to match the Best Buy deal, even if it ends after 2 years, would be acceptable. One thing they can't do with my wife is think she'll cave in because she "just has to have this phone". That's one of the benefits of getting older.

Re: Success!!!! Keeping SERO $49 plan!!!!!!

this dude is out there.They do not have to do anything.I do not care how you got it.It can't be activated and i would be first in line if you could to do it also but it can't happen.The system will not allow it.

Even if the rep wanted to.And as far as a suit you are really out there if you think you got a case at all.

I have a suit if they won't activate, and then try to charge full price. We will NOT be the ones who aren't trying to activate it, if anything, it will be them refusing. There certainly is a contract with Best Buy here. They may have an issue with Sprint, but they'll resolve that easily. But they won't get the phone back, nor be able to charge full price, if they, and/or who they represent fail to fulfill the deal. And as I said in another post, we'll drop the "SERO" as long as the price matches, even if it ends after the 2 year period (which SERO wouldn't). How does that sound for fairness and compromise?

and when you don't change your plan and activate it, they will blacklist that esn and you won't be able to sell it either.
But it is a pretty cool paperweight.

I'm all for a loophole but this is the first thing I thought of as well when I read this thread.

Have you ever checked ebay for phones with BAD ESN's. They usually sell for the same price as ones with good ESN's, and there is a reason for that!
