How to damage Touch Pro (to upgrade to TP2 through TEP)?

selytch · #1 (**permalink**) 11-08-2009, 01:57 PM

So I have TP. And I have TEP (total equipment protection). Unfortunately in the year 1 own it they were no issues! No peeling chrome, no overheating, no performance issues. No real issue to go to customer support and ask to repair/exchange the phone.

So any ideas - software or mechanical - I can make my phone not working properly to qualify for an exchange?

In other words you want us to help you commit fraud?

Thanks for the moral, but that's not the point. For the rates sprint charges they'd better upgrade phone no questions asked, but they won't.

OK, thanks all, I guess it is a fraud. But to answer previous question - do you know, that device price is included in the plan (i.e. part of your monthly payment goes to cover subsidized price)? Than why after 2 years monthly rate does not drop? Why if you buy full price device (like this TP2 for $600) you pay the same as if you had a subsidized phone?

This post most likely will be deleted. If something is really wrong with your phone sprint will replace it.

you wont get a Touch pRO 2 . I just replaced my TP with TEP and they are still are sending out TP's not TP2. So your pretty beat for now.

ok so you have had your TP for a year at most.................you havent fully paid sprint for the device going by your logic. your not entitled to get anything from sprint.
