Mobile Hotspot Unlimited Data on LTE

Mobile Hotspot with Unlimited Data are available for business accounts with credit union discount.  Was told by store manager only these account type with credit union are qualified for unlimited data mobile hotspot.  Picked up a Zing Mobile Hotpot and had verified our online account which shows "Custom 3G/4G Conn Plan Unltd" for the Zing.

 

Was surprised that Sprint offered unlimited data hotspot on LTE.  Cannot wait until we get Spark!

Sounds like that's unintended. Probably a leftover old plan not cleaned up.

Let's just hope there isn't any way to game the system so that somebody can get unlimited data even though they may not be using it strictly for business.

This plan is only available for business Corporate-Liable accounts with a Federal Tax ID associated with the account. While that's possible for anyone to do, it's certainly not easy, and not without the will and knowhow to do so.

it is filling out a form on the IRS website and you get your EIN at the conclusion.  When I got mine several years ago I think they had to mail it to me but it was quite easy besides that.

 

EDIT- As a sole proprietor it is very easy.

You get a PDF copy immediately and then it comes in the mail within a few days. This is true even as a C Corp.

I think they give them out like candy...hence why they limit them to one per day now.  Certainly not a deterrent for someone seeking out unlimited data.

I can bet there are a select few who are already on the phone, been in stores trying to get it. With wimax dying there will be people who will want to use LTE as their home internet and will do anything and everything to get it.

Sprint ended unlimited on hotspots mid contract before. They can still do it again if it becomes a problem.

Not bad for $50/month for unlimited.  I have 100Mbps/25Mbps Cox internet for home and work. Cannot imagine why I would want to abuse unlimited LTE SPARK hotspot.    ;)

Yeah, but, let's not do that. ;) (And hopefully I'm interpretting your sarcasm correctly)

You will need to open a business credit union account.  Bad credit would make it much harder.

So, you need to belong to a credit union? I don't get it.

To qualify for the credit union discount, you will need to have a personal or business credit union

 bank account.

This is similar to the government hotspot plans that Sprint and at least one of the other 4 major providers still offers in an unlimited form. Though I know for sure one of the big 4 doesn't have an unlimited government one anymore.

Verizon still offers unlimited data plans on qualified Health Care provider plans.  Not sure about the hotspot though.  We manage an account that is qualified on Verizon and any new plans can still get unlimited data.

Be careful. If this thread advocates "unlimited" abuse, it will not last.

I was looking at picking up a Zing this weekend. I purchased a Windows tablet and currently using my phone to tether but it kills the battery to fast. I currently own a business with a business account through a Credit Union. What do I need to ask for, show, and do I need to go to a corporate store?

 

Thanks for your help.

I currently have Cable (105/10), DSL (6/768k), Satellite (12/3) and FreeDOM POP (1.5/512k), Along with an AT&T Unite (5GB Plan) an a Zing (3GB Plan) that I travel with along with my personal phone with AT&T with hotspot.  

 

Wouldn't mind having this plan on my Zing to remove the worry of watching the meter.

Make sure you sign up for the credit union discount. Link on previous post. Or simply just take proof of your credit union to the Sprint store.

Once the credit union discount has been applied.. just go to the Sprint store and ask the store manager for the unlimited data hot spot plan. Most reps would not know of this plan.

Managers would laugh at you. Im fairly certain this is a business plan not individual.

    • This site is now live as eNB 380787 and gNB 1877974. It was not live in Sept when I drove by the site, so this is a recent activation. Also the confusing nearby eNB 84647 appears to have been upgraded but the upgraded portions weren't live yet. 
    • My S24 Ultra and my two S22s are uploading and working properly today, as another data point. 
    • My hope is they can spot something in the data that was exported. I am going after all 4 carriers on a multitude of phones and Android versions. My S24 did work.  I have not checked another S24 or S22.  S21s failed which are on Android 14 as well. It should be noted I did not reboot after updates and some of the data was captured on the prior update. Data from some new Boost Mobile Dish (Echostar) sites in the Wheeling area did make it in. Was hoping for more SA data from the duo. Many of the phones are just LTE.
    • I was traveling for a couple of days.   Sunday evening, I upload from 3 phones.  A S-22 and two Moto 5G phones.  Everything looked ok.    How do we explain that?   One person has issues and another person does not.  All my phones have the latest update.
    • Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.
