mrknowitall526 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I had 20 days on old plan and 10 on family. It was prorated. Sent from my SPH-L900 You got the discount? I had 5 days on Framily - they charged me $11 for each line - which is 1/5 of the $55. But did NOT give me 1/5 of the $30 discount (I have 7 lines). 2 reps now have told me that I shouldn't get the discounted on the prorated days. Why not??

xjr2amt Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 So I finally just got done reading through all 49 pages of this and just to clear things up, this is what I'm getting from all of this (and please correct me where I'm wrong) - There is no premium data charge - Current Sprint customers cannot join into Framily plans - If people are looking for openings go to the Sprint Facebook page - You can switch over to Framily only in store (but also through chat & over the phone?) not online - There is an Unlimited data guarantee for the Framily plan but ONLY the Unlimited plan (not the 1 GB or 3 GB plan) - Off network voice roaming is 800 minutes and data is 100 MB - Subsides are not available on the Framily plan, but a device can be purchased out right for the full price, you can bring your own device that is Sprint certified (not from Virgin Mobile, Boost or Assurance Wireless) or you can sign up for Easy Pay and spread out your payments over 24 months - Discounts will be taken off of ONLY 3 GB or Unlimited data plans NOT the 1 GB or the actual bill - You are NOT in a contract - it is "like" a prepaid - where it is a month to month I hope I got everything? Just wanted to try and clear everything up for people still looking at this plan and can't keep up with the thread. *** Unanswered question: Do discounts come off of phones? Sprint is offering most people with just a single line of service to merge on a framily. Just what I have seen through the weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarshieZ Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Updated List: - There is no premium data charge - Current Sprint customers cannot join into another current Sprint Framily plan (you cannot join an existing customers plan) - If people are looking for openings go to the Sprint Facebook page - You can switch over to Framily only in store (but also through chat & over the phone?) not online - There is an Unlimited data guarantee for the Framily plan but ONLY the Unlimited plan (not the 1 GB or 3 GB plan) - Off network voice roaming is 800 minutes and data is 100 MB - Subsides are not available on the Framily plan, but a device can be purchased out right for the full price OR you can bring your own device that is Sprint certified (not from Virgin Mobile, Boost or Assurance Wireless) OR you can sign up for Easy Pay and spread out your payments over 24 months - Discounts will be taken off of ONLY 3 GB or Unlimited data plans NOT the 1 GB or the actual bill - You are NOT in a contract - it is "like" a prepaid - where it is a month to month - Single lines can be merged or made to a Framily plan - For the unlimited plan (and only the unlimited plan) you qualify for annual upgrades 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did NOT discount for the pro rated part. They charged me $11 for each line for 6 days and didn't discount anything. I don't think that's right.

kct1975 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 At the risk of annoying everyone here...I just have one question. Is Sprint moving toward only offering the Family plan ? Or are there going to be other plan options ? The reason that I ask is that right now, I only have two lines of service, and right now at least, I don't plan on trying to recruit a bunch of people. Personally, I would prefer to stay with my two lines, and doing so, the Framily plan does not make sense for me.

SteveO_148 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I was frustrated after learning that I could not have my son and his wife who are sprint customers as well join a framily with me. So for 4 phones AT&T is offering $160 with 10gb of data to share and T-Mobile is offering $160 fur 4 phones with 2.5 gb line. Same Sprint Framily plan is $160 for 4 phone with only 1 gb per line...

I am not sure but I think the big plus for sprint is the separate billing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjs2011 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 So I tried to add my two lines to 2 different Framily plans last night and the only way they'd let me was if I'd change my billing address, which I can't do because I hand my bills in to my employer for reimbursement.

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk Unless you are a new customer you can not join existing framily groups. Im not sure why care is letting people around this just because you share an address. Also you can change address easy over the phone or on sprint.com. You can also print copies of your bills on sprint.com.
