Mondays In Flames

Recommended Posts

Just thought I'd congratulate everyone on surviving the Mayan Apocalypse... Job well done guys. Now on to business.

 

 

 

I have a general question:

With everything that has been going on with Sprint (Softbank, Clearwire, NV, etc.), what is one thing you would change about the company and why?

 

 

 

Personally I would change all the info the Reps are getting and make it all unified, everyone is always giving different answers.

1. Use SIM cards and allow CDMA phones from other providers

 

2. Give everyone 500 mb of free (on-network) tethering (why should I have to buy an extra freedom pop hotspot?)

Make it so Preferred Retailers can do everything a corporate-owned retail store can. There's an annoying list of things we have to send people to another store for. Like returning directship/online orders. Or changing PIN/passcodes. Or a budget for Seed Stock replacement phones. Or...

Most of the stuff you send is bullshit you should be glad you cant do. But being able to sell to any account type and bill accessories to account is nice.

Eh, bullshit or no, Care keeps sending people to our store thinking we can do these things, and it only ends up pissing them off more when we have to send them elsewhere.

 

Bill To Account is also something that would be nice. Billing *phones* to accounts only works on VAD orders; if it comes from our inventory, cash or credit or get out.

Business accounts have Bill To Account for both phones and accessories. I know in corporate stores you can use it and online you can too.

That's what I'm saying; for Preferred Retailers, nobody can bill anything to the account. We just don't have it set up.

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.
    • 5G in the U.S. – Additional Mid-band Spectrum Driving Performance Gains T-Mobile holds on to it's lead in 5G Speed
    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
