Sprints website no longer exists. Probably best just to wait for a bit unless the phone is hardly working. Even then I’d search some used listings for one before I’d get in the mess of TMobile/Sprint services. Anything you get from a store (unless you’re in a shentel Sprint market) is going to be TMobile based and if their network sucks in your area you’re stuck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Nope. Still ‘negotiating’. Was told don’t expect to hear anything Sept 1 (the end of 60day period where TMo has option to buy Shentel Wireless assets). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yeah it’s all up in the air. Everyone is left In the dark... feel bad for the stores. As of Aug 2 Sprint rate plans will be non existent so I don’t know what they’ll be selling. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’m not sure either. I do know that the Sprint name and logo and everything is on the way out... like soon... if we remain an affiliate we were told To expect TMo branding soon - like ASAP soon. All the back office billing and stuff is handled by Sprint. Shentel has its own customer service call centers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Under option one TMo has to pay 90% of the entire company value even though they are only getting the wireless portion of the company. As you said - this is to make a buyout unattractive. Under option two as you said - Shentel has opportunity to buy and legacy customers and equipment in their operating area at a reduced rate (I forget right now - want to say 70 or 80%). TMo also has to provide funding if needed. You are correct for option 3. If nothing happens then the TMo network will be turned down in Shentel’s operating area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
No agreement was reached with TMo. TMo is now n it’s stage to be able to acquire Shentel. I’m not saying this is happening, but we’ve reached that point where it’s possible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’m on holiday in SC this week. My daughters iPhone 8 got a carrier update today. Where we are Sprint signal is very low. Her phone is showing AT&T service now [emoji2957] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
This shouldn’t be happening. As a shentel customer you shouldn’t connecting to the TMo network...yet. TMo has been aggressive in getting things switched over and has accidentally sent out network carrier updates to shentel customers. Sprint corporate customers should only be getting these right now. It will prioritize TMo network and might cause you to have poor service in areas that you once had good service in. We just talked about this in a staff meeting today. If it continues to happen contact Sprint/Shentel and let them know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I got mine like Monday? Pretty sure it’s a Sprint thing not Shentel. Maybe only sending it to certain model of phones too. *shrug* Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Unknown really. I’m pretty sure it was just a mass text to all subscribers. We have an ‘all hands’ meeting next Thursday. Many of us think that they’ll be announcing what’s going to happen as this is close to the end of the negotiation period. We’ll have to wait and see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
