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.

I have to tell you all I am near tears right now.  I am so stoked that Marcelo listened to us, directly.  I am sure he listened to all the feedback he heard.  But I believe S4GRU was influential in th

I'm still shocked and amazed how successful S4GRU has been in staying online, remaining relevant and keeping quality members and staff all with member donations from a relatively small pool. When we

Maybe he's outside of the city limits. He'll tweet as soon as he's back in town with a data connection.

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.

(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.

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

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.

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?

      Interesting, I saw this too on my AT&T S22 while roaming on US Cellular. I thought it was an Android bug since CellMapper was doing the same thing (didn't get a screenshot of that one). N66 makes more sense than N1.

      Thanks, that was good timing, I did see your report as I was buttoning up this latest update and added an override for that.. did it not work?   Ok, was that on AT&T also? Please send a report if you happen to see it again and safely have the opportunity. You can always do the long-press on the fly and then send a later one with an explanation pointing to the earlier one.. your username is attached to the long-press reports, so it's not an issue.

      I sent a report in earlier, n66 reporting as n1. There should be two different reports, I couldn't find the button the first time so I just long pressed the connection type to send, then I remembered where it was. I put a note about the issue on the 2nd report. Both reports from me are for the same issue. Also, it might have been on a prior release but earlier this week I also saw n66 reported as n65 on the app. I was driving and wasn't able to send a report in for that one.

      One more SCP beta rolling out.. includes more bugfixes and minor improvements. Pending any major issues with this version, it will be released to the public within a few days. Thanks for all the help and feedback!

      Passed by the former Sprint site at 1184 60th St in Brooklyn last week and noticed T-Mobile took down all of the Sprint equipment but it looked like they installed some new cabinets so conversion is likely in progress.
