They have to honor it, so don't give up if they say no.

If anyone is renewing his contract for 2 more years and getting the TP's @$299.99 (+ 20% dsct), is there an $18 one-time activation fee per device? I went to a BB store in Columbus, OH yesterday and the rep said there is a $36 activation fee for the 2 TP's I want. Is that BB rep correct? Did you guys had to pay this amount @ BB?

what did you exactly tell the BB rep? Were you renewing for 2 more years (got the phone with all dscts applicable)?

I was told the activation fee would be on my bill, $18 so I'm not worried about it.

Hey, just wanted to update you guys. If you didn't get the 20% rebate like I did, just go back in with the printed coupon from the website (essentially a screen cap), your receipt, and a bit of patience, and they'll refund it. I ended up getting $96 bucks back in cash, dropping my touch pro from about 470 bucks to 350 or so. No hassle, just went in, showed the receipt and coupon, and got handed some cash.

Effortless considering what a savings that is.

I got the phone from BB for $299.99, no activation fee on a new 2 year. Called Sprint because I couldn't remember my pin while setting up the new contract in store and the Sprint rep gave me a random $50 account credit. Then, after coming home and finding out about the 20% discount, I went back to BB the next day, showed them the ad, and they credited me the 20% off of the $299 figure. I've also mailed the $100 rebate form and original receipt to Sprint. But I don't really expect to get that because if I do, it means I would end up having gotten the phone for just under $100 dollars, all said and done.

I also found out that because of my employer, I qualify for a 22% discount off of the monthly plan price. I shopped around, and I find Sprint's plan prices to be the lowest among the major carriers.

MIR only applies to Sprint purchases from what I understand and a copy of the invoice has to be included.

$18 activation fee always applies unless you get it waved. BB does not charge you for it, Sprint does on your next bill...
