Why are you still with Sprint?

I stick with them for unlimited unmonitored data (AT&T sends notices for tethering and therefore monitors you) as well as the family plan pricing that enables all of us to have smart phones (where only I used to have one).

I had compiled a Sprint Employee Discount list a while back and still keep it updated (providing folks tell me of any change) .

 

A to M

and

N to Z

 

I myself only get 19% working with the City of NY, 4 lines total, but I don't know if the discount is applied to one line or all 4. I need to check on that.

for my discount, it was primary line only. I think they all are.

Yup, Pretty sure you're right about that Scott... That's what I'm getting.. 25% off the primary line (which is 25% off $110).

AOL also provides a 25% discount for having an aim.com email address.

Yeah its me. It originally started in bits and pieces from numerous posts in sites like slickdeals, howardforums, androidforums, etc etc and I gathered all of them and put them in one place. At one point it got so big to managed that I added two other editors to help out.

I believe I grouped AOL discount in with the Time Warner Cable listing, but just in case, I just added a separate AOL one that you just mentioned.

Thanks

AOL is now no longer part of Time Warner, and it took over 2 years for Sprint to split AOL employees to their own discount, which is weird.

Back when I started the list, that link was brought up and back then and even now, my work address (which by the way is for the city of new york) does not recognize my organization, so it may not work for everyone. Although they do provide a phone number to call and have it set up manually over the phone.

Price is only good if you are in an area with good enough speeds to use the unlimited data. Otherwise the extra few dollers for superior service is worth it in my opinion. I am lucky to have great Sprint 3G coverage but would love to have a solid 4G. All in due time, I have managed this far on 3G only.

Simple:

Been with 'em for over a decade, I detest Big Red and the Death Star, and the Magenta T-Mob I'm really not familiar enough with.

 

I have an excellent "World Phone" that meets my needs and while Sprint's 3G in my area is very slow in my area at this time, NV is coming...

 

In other words, I have no need to change, and the price is absolutely right.

Yeah I would have stuck it out too if I was paying $40 a month.

    • Someone told me a couple years ago, that there were problems getting certain modems to aggregate overlapping spectrum even if the overlapping parts were actually blanked. So I think there might be firmware issues that need to be resolved first, which T-Mobile might not consider worth the effort for 4MHz at this time.
    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.  
    • Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
