Did you actually get SERO back? Reason I ask is, this is a loaded question

As you can not get "SERO" back (at least not the original) because it isn't an plan option on the system anymore since 2006. But as of OCT 1, you "could" (YMMV) get on *back on* SERO Premium.

Although to get this deal from the linked, you would have to activate/upgrade to an Everything Data or Everything Plus plan, plus $10 Premium Data.

If you still have SERO or are currently on SERO (F&F 500/1250) you can request to be "upgraded" to SERO Premium, which is compatible with EVO/Epic at a corporate store (they will have to call national sales to hook your plan up)...

In my case sumone messed up sumwhere cus from wut i understand this new "premium sero" is wut $59 +10 data?

I didnt get my exact plan back which came out to $34 F&F 500 +TEP on my TP2. I got bumped up to the $69 plan +$10data for like literally 2mins. then was moved to $49 (500mins) +$10 data so my bill is $59, wit TEP an taxes it comes out to 74.62 a month. the same goes for my mom and her epic.

Re: EVO for $159.99 @ Tigerdirect

Well I am now on Sero Premium, $40 for 500 minutes. But both Sprint and Tigerdirect told me I am not eligible for any of the 4G phones. I guess I will stick with TP2 for now and move to the T7 Pro when it comes out next year.

Sprint | Already an Everything Plus or SERO customer?

What are the plan details of the new SERO Premium rate plans?
As of 10/1/10, there will be two SERO Premium plans available, SERO Premium 500 at $40/month and SERO Premium 1250 at $59.99/month. SERO Premium plans will match current SERO rate plans with two added features, Any Mobile Anytime and Unlimited GPS Navigation. SERO Premium rate plans will be compatible with all devices offered by Sprint. Only customers on a current SERO rate plan as of 10/1/10 will be able to swap to a SERO Premium rate plan. SERO Premium rate plans will not be discountable – customers on current SERO plans receiving discounts above and beyond the already discounted SERO rate will lose those discounts when moving to a SERO premium plan. 4G handsets such as HTC EVO 4G and Samsung Epic 4G will also require the $10 Premium Data add-on.

I'll give it a try! Sending thanks your way.

edit: Just found this on their website:

Does BestBuy.com match the prices of other retailers?

At this time, the BestBuy.com Price Match Guarantee does not cover the prices listed by other online or store retailers.

I forgot about that. They only match local stores. But since you are within 30 days you have all the leverage. Just return the phone and when they ask why tell them you found a lower price. They might give you something to compensate you or you can return it and buy it from tigerdirect. I'm sure a manager at best buy can do more than you think. Best buy has price matched several electronics items for me with online stores just to get the sale. You might luck out.

Just saw another post from another member. Amazon is selling the evo for only $99. You should check it out. If you qualify I would return your phone to best buy and go with amazon. Thats an awesome deal if you can get it.
