NYC126 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The troll Cortez is basically everywhere,and the reason why he hates this place so much is because he is not allowed here which is a great thing. There is not question in my mind he is a part time tmobile sales associate. From looking at his comments it seem he has a lot of free time on hands so my assumption is either he is a part time tmobile or a slacker. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony.spina97 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Sprint's #AllIn ad earned a 9.0/10 effectiveness rating according to ispot.tv https://twitter.com/ispottv/status/621734624159379456 I saw that effectiveness yesterday when I was talking to my Dad while he was getting ready for work, which is usually the time I talk to him about all things Sprint/Technological (because we're both computer nerds ) and he actually brought up that commercial in the conversation and told me he really liked it. That's really saying something because he does NOT like commercials (that's why we've had DVR's since Time Warner started selling them). I guess the news is starting to get around http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/07/16/sprints-2x-carrier-aggregation-goes-live-in-nearly-40-markets-across-the-us/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk And the comments actually aren't toxic!

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk Someone tweeted Marcelo and he said he was looking into it. That was ~3 weeks ago, haven't heard of anything since. I'd personally love it if he added even 1GB to it. Sent from my M8 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paynefanbro Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'd be happy with 1GB. Virtually the only time I'd use it is on trips to and from Boston which is about once every 2 months or so. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Nuke Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Don't underestimate the fans. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk The NBA has fans for sure, but I sincerely doubt Sprint is going to lose any significant amount of customers over no longer being the official wireless carrier of the NBA or having the app. I also tend to be skeptical that the average NBA fan connects Sprint with NBA much less sees Sprint's advertising and says "hey if it is good enough for the NBA they should be my wireless carrier."

dnicekid Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Since Marcelo has someone monitoring this site would it make sense for us to take a poll of things we would like? Like how important is... Very ,not very and so forth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very ,not very and so forth.Forgive me but I think he already knows what's important. I think they have learned that focus groups are already important. However if this is to be done, the sponsor section would be more appropriate 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Marcelo and sprint are going in the right direction but I don't think they truly know the little perks that would make people very happy if included in the plan or simple add ons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree a public poll would be the better route to take. The little things will keep current and attract new customers especially since the network has really taken shape under his short tenure. Adding 1 or 2gb of tethered data to plans can go a long way with customers. I think the current prices are good and don't really need changing at all. Also I can't wait until we start seeing more of these tests pop up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnicekid Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I am hoping since Robert has gotten Marcelo's attention before - he just might actually think about what we send. I believe Sprints price point is about right. However, things like tethering are important misses on ul plans 2gb would be awesome. Perks like +2 gbs for longtime customers would be awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perks like +2 gbs for longtime customers would be awesome.Sprint is a business, not a charity. I'm sure if tethering is offered, it would be to get customers off of the legacy plans and in to the current offerings. Edit: that said, I'd love a 2GB add-on with my unlimited plan. I just don't see that happening anytime soon. I'd be happy to eat my words, though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mittenmitten Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 does Budweiser give people free beer? does Subway give away free subs? "Oh, oh, please, take my $10. I don't want it. It's yours." T-Mobile is the only carrier throwing in tethering, it's not an industry trend, and it's because Legere is the candy man. tethering isn't going to change anyone's mind about which carrier they're going to use. I would be all for CHEAPER tethering and/or bigger pools of data, or throwing it in on Boost or Virgin plans, but throwing it in for free on Sprint is just throwing money away.

Websites don't need to be taken offline to update pages... And if they had to take it down for maintenance they wouldn't do it in the middle of the day.
