Sprint didn't give me a SIM (UIM/RIM) - Page 2

I had the same issue where the sim card was not in there. I spoke to the local rep and stated that the phone is supposed to come with the sim card, to do his research. I ended up with a sim card in the mail from Sprint.

If you have a TP 2 as a result of it being replaced because you had a defective TP then most likely 95% did not get a box or accessories. Sprint is not entitled to give you a sim card at all with the phone because they are considered refurbished. Although if you look in your rtn menu most are not refurbished. Basically don't get bent out of shape if your phone didn't come with one, just call in and most likely you can get one sent to you, that or your local service center might have some laying around.

He had unsurprisingly never seen a TP2 in his life, nor a sprint phone with a slot for a SIM card (!). He gave me the number for Sprint International and told me they could ship me one, got transferred to multiple departments, all of which told me I was speaking with the wrong department. Can anyone (maybe a sprint employee who could take my information and get one shipped to me?!) help me out with where to get a SIM card? It'll keep you busy and pass the time waiting for the HSPL i promise...Thanks in advance!

Did you get it through sprint or Asurion?

Insurance replacements won't have SIMs, as they assume you are swapping phones and are using your old SIM.

I did go to the store and ask, they had no idea what i was talking about or where to get a hold of one. I'm just gonna go back and make it their problem, since they didn't give it to me in the first place. I'm not gonna deal with "customer service" again.
