Anyone actually get the EVO on a free and clear plan?

[stparker38]

I was on Sprint's F&C and when that phased out I went to the Everything plan...it ended up saving me more money. Since nearly everyone has a cell phone these days I practically never use the 1500 minutes as the mobile to mobile is free. I have two lines, one with the EVO and one with the Moment and I pay only 150/mo, with tax. That may rise to 160 with the added 10.00 charge. Before upgrading to the Moment and EVO I went to Verizon for the Eris because I wasn't elig for an upgrade on Sprint and really wanted the Hero... the plan was 150 for ONE LINE! They charge separately for text, talk, and data...it was ridiculous. I gladly kept my Sprint lines and canceled the Verizon plan. ATT plans are even more expensive. I have friends that only have ATT because of their obsession with the iPhones....they have all said if it weren't for that phone they would not have ATT...in the end people will do what they want, but I wouldn't sit and try to justify those decisions by bashing another...if you want Verizon or the iPhone, then take your grown behind out and get one...and avoid the bashing: it is so tacky. I don't have anything against the iPhone, just not my preference....never been an Apple person period: iPods, iPads, Macs, or the iPhone...to each its own.

But on your original post, the Everything package will be just as cheap and beneficial as the F&C plan...

Verizon is a better carrier - do you doubt that?

For you that might be the case - for me however I use my cell phone as my business line. I average between 1150 and 1250 minutes per month and about 200 minutes mobile to mobile and about 1400 minutes nights and weekends.

My current plan is $50 for unlimited data and text, mobile to mobile, 7PM nights and weekends, and 1250 minutes for daytime. If you know of an everything plan for $50 please send me a link - I'll be happy to switch over.

Thanks - for anyone that actually wanted to comment about sneaking in the EVO on F&C - that was the reason I posted in the first place.

my point was pointed at your initial post which had nothing to do with verizon and more of a quip against at&t.

boe, i see why you were so snippy with me over at pdaphone...

you are a long time sprint user yes? have you called account services and ASKED them what they can do to keep you as a customer?? see what they can offer you. if its not what you like, then cancel and move to verizon which seems to be one of your top carriers.

is verizon the better company? thats up to individual taste. in some areas ATT or tmobile may be better than verizon... YMMV..

however, as i stated to you on pdaphone, its a tough sell to get the evo on the legacy plan, so why not just stop defending your decisions on why you dont like the evo, contact sprint, if they aren't talking your language, tell them good bye and move on.org...

To get to the meat of the matter; if I'm going to buy a new phone and move to a new carrier I might as well wait for a good phone to come out instead of paying for a phone now and then in 6 months when the WP7 phones or possibly an iphone are available on verizon and paying $500. My post was to ask about if anyone managed to get the EVO on F&C but all the people who wanted to post would rather talk about other things.

I have a great plan but I have been on Sprint 10 years. I also have a 25% discount because of where I work. We have 4 phones in our house and I could not find another carrier that could come close to matching what I pay.

And, exactly how many other carriers are offering 4G? I live in the little town of Sugar Hill, GA and have it solid, even though it is not on their coverage map!
