I only had to spend about 10 hours talking, emailing, driving, arguing, enlightenting, and nearly going postal on Sprint employees. The only thing that keeps me with Sprint is my Sero plan.

So you ended up going through the insurance company and they authorized a new one?
i have a sprint repair center 10 mins from my house so thats where i have been going. and then they told me they couldnt get me a new one and to call customer service like you. i did and they bounced me around until finally telling me they cant give me a brand new one because they have sent me too many broken ones haha

i love the phone when it is working. it is an amazing machine that fits in the palm of my hand. i just want it to not self destruct anymore haha

so they ordered me a refurb, it came with a broken housing on the battery so it wouldnt stay in so i couldnt use that phone, then they order me another refurb for that and the radio on it died after 2 days and i could no longer make calls, so i get another refurb and now the keyboard on it just died.
so thats 4 phones now in 3 months.
i tried asking for a new phone instead of a refurb this time so i dont get another peice of crap that is going to die and they told me they couldnt because ive gotten too many refurbs!!!!!!:banghead:
so because they keep sending me crappy phones that break, they wont give me one that works!
that is just the most ridiculous answer ever!

After 3 refurbs, Sprint is supposed to send you a new one. That's what they did with me. Call and ask for retention, they will resolve your issue.

Re: Rant about sprint

I went through 3 800W phones (all defective keyboards), from there to the TP1 (1st replaced due to freezing up) and the 2nd one not a problem. Now with the TP2. Back in the Palm OS days, 2 700Ps, 2 Centros.
