general question
 

I went out last night and either someone snatched or I dropped my mogul in my drunken stupor. I have insurance but what are the chances of sprint agreeing to send me a diamond instead of a titan? The diamond is the same price and actually cheaper on sprints website so I could try and talk them into believing it's a downgrade. Any of you know if they'd go for it?

Re: general question
 

We all want the diamond, Pro and free adds on and all, but come on man!! this is ridiculous. This isn't a good scenario at all unless you promise them that you will start attending AA and get some signed slips to show for.:mrgreen:lol

Re: general question
 

Well forget that it's a diamond a second....the point is for any insurance claim, would they allow a downgrade? I'm asking of their policy because policy is policy.....on their website, they have the diamond at a cheaper price, which they could consider a downgrade.

Re: general question
 

If your Mogul is MIA and they have a mogul in stock that is what you are going to get. Now, if they don't have it which happens a lot, you will definitely get the Diamond.

1:52:45 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/user1.png prti I need to know exactly when my contract with Sprint expires for one
1:53:15 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/user1.png pti I see november 5 2008 on the website but i'm not sure if that is the date I can cancel my service without a penalty.

1:55:49 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/user1.png pati okay perfect, my next question is. If equipment is lost and someone is under the equipment insurance plan. Is it possible to downgrade the phone and receive a lower end model?
1:56:36 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/user1.png pti or a model of equal value?
1:56:50 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/agent.png Sharde Equal value.
1:57:12 PM https://sprint-ap2.cnxchat.com/netag...imgs/agent.png Sharde They may offer a lesser value phone, however I am not sure.

Re: general question
 

All I can tell you is file a claim and see what you get. I mean, if you get a 6800 what are you going to do? Refuse it? Either way, you need a device.

Re: general question
 

well....I'm actually going to just switch services rather than claim anything. I'll pay the extra month out of pocket and switch service to my old Fusic phone while getting rid of the wretched sprint. I can't stand it.

Re: general question
 

asurion's general policy is never to give a different device on an insurance claim in normal circumstances. this is obviously to prevent this type of insurance fraud. most of the people you see getting other devices are either swapping them with sprint or getting it replaced under the other part of the $7/mo plan (which offers an extended warranty). sprint is more liberal with this kind of thing, asurion on the other hand could probably care less if you stay with sprint or not.

Re: general question
 

iunno technically it was fraud when i had to get a V9m replaced because I couldn't tell what the color codes were at the time and didn't realize until I got a pink razr in the mail. granted, i wanted one ot make my girlfriend jealous, but that wasn't the phone that i originally paid for and they didn't seem to mind.

though i did break the phone 2 weeks later from overhacking/lack of quality

Re: general question
 

if you didn't have to pay $50 then you didn't go through asurion.... sprint has their own replacement plan as part of the $7/mo plan... also if phones are discontinued or out of stock they will send you a different one... I also didn't say it was fraud to do that but it could easily be used for fraudulent purposes and that is why asurion generally will not do it.
