do i just sign up for a contract, and get the 199 discount, then Switch Over To A SERO 500? would this even be possable?? OR do i go ahiead and get the sero 500 plan by buying it off of somebody right now, with a cheap phone for the moment, then after my ser0 is set up, lets say a lotus. then can u upgrade that phone through the site to a tp2 for 199?

which option do u need to try, to end up with the 199 TP2, on the SERO 500 ???? somebody please help mr

In case anyone is looking for a TP2 and wants a new line this link will sell it to you for $50. I just bought 2 of them and they arrived this morning.

HEADS UP! www.sprint.com/citigroup is no longer available

But good news! www.sprint.com/apple is available for the same $199.99 after instant discounts.

Get it before they close this one too!

you MAY NOT get the phone for $199. However, you don't need to do anything special to get the TP2 on SERO. Simply call *telesales* -- NOT the normal customer service.

If you already fulfilled your contract, then you'll probably get $150 discount and $100 mail in rebate. PLUS, what I recommend is you ask telesales to give you $100 - $150 off your first bill as a "loyal customer" so you don't jump ship to Verizon who sells the phone for a cheaper price. I got $100 credit to my bill without ANY problems. (they'll make you sign-up for another 2 years, but your plan stays the same!)

i did not have to do any haggling with Sprint and I was willing to pay more for the phone because it is the 'latest and greatest' and i would not want to switch from my original SERO plan.

I have a rep that is a friend of mine who bills phones to my account without using my upgrade. That way whenever something hot comes out I can get on it and take advantage of not having to pay out of pocket. I had mine billed to my account about a month ago. I called Account Services on *2 and they agreed to price match my pro 2 with Verizon. They said they couldn't label the credit as a price match so they called it a: "Free month of Service". I couldn't be happier. I must say that keep in mind that some reps don't know as much as others. After 8 years I have learned very well how to get what I want from them. Don't let someone tell you know (as so many have said).
