Why are sprint's roaming allotments so generous?

A lot of it was old Altell coverage. When Verizon purchased those sites, the agreements followed over.

AT&T also got a part of Alltel.

 

They're planning on sunsetting that network this July.

Roaming coverage is going to get very expensive when those networks go, along with MetroPCS when they finally shut off those CDMA Sites too...(Still active here in South Fla as of last week I seen). Verizon is no cheap date for roaming.

That's also one of the reasons why Sprint is pushing 1xA deployment on 800mhz so heavily. It reduces roaming needs significantly.

(For those who don't know, Marcelo's tweet expresses condolences for Andy Butler, a Sprint employee who was one of seven people killed early Tuesday morning when their plane crashed near the Bloomington, IL, airport while returning home from the NCAA Championship game. A sad event.)

Supposedly throttled at 2G speeds; specific country list:

• Argentina
• Brazil
• Chile
• Costa Rica
• El Salvador
• Germany
• Guatemala
• Japan
• Mexico
• Nicaragua
• Panama
• Russia
• South Korea
• Spain
• United Kingdom

Hopefully they can broaden the coverage (*cough* Canada) and make this option available on all unlimited plans.

 

I am liking that Sprint is trying to compete with Tmobile in offering free international data roaming as part of a perk on its cell phone plans.  Hopefully Sprint over time can add more countries to the list all over the world.

 

 

Sure but gotta admit, not having Canada while having Guatemala is an absolute joke.

How dare Sprint not include "America's Hat"

 

 

A testdrive program like TMO's - but longer - would be a good boost to sprint's fortunes.

 

The non tech crowd believe sprint sucks so no way will they transfer their number to test sprint but a "burner" phobe num with zero cost?

Why not?

That could almost be sprint's slogan.

I agree that Sprint needs a "test drive" program to get people to try Sprint service without the strings attached.  It could be for the iPhone or the Galaxy S6.  If the test drive was just for the iPhone, they mind as well do it and take full advantage of that 20 billion dollar deal they made with Apple 4 years ago.

Wow also pretty sweet I can pick up my s6 tomorrow. Surprised I don't have to wait a few days.

[JeffDTD]

I like it and agree, this would have never happened under the old guard and had it happened, it would have been months before anything changed in these stores. #notthesameoldsprint

Another good market for Sprint.

Since our testing in October, Sprint’s median download speed increased from 6.8 Mbps to 10.7 Mbps.

That's great to see them moving up in these major markets.

wow, they actually had the fastest median download speed there! it looks like if they had just done better at call performance they would have actually gotten first in Denver O_O

I was in Denver 2 weeks ago, and I was impressed with their speeds. (Pulled my fastest B41 speedtest there, too @ 78mbps.)

Still, I'm liking that Sprint is finally making progress.  Just added another bulletpoint to my list of Sprint's new management doing things right.

So I'm "confused"

 

Is it $80 then $20 credit or is the $80 including the credit?

 

$60 would be a great deal. $80 umm not great not bad.

Off topic, I like your photo. Coca-Cola is a great drink.

I just added the it to my account on both phones if me and my significant half decide to go globe hopping. Yes I added it to my 20gb share plan.

[jeffcarp]

When I added the new International value roaming to my account I noticed that in the list of options there were other choices that you could check to "enable international data" for example. Do you have to pick those options too or does simply selecting this new international value option trump those other settings?
