Why should they be? Existing customers get the shaft once again. Sprint should re-brand as Open Mobile at this point.

Some are never happy, no matter what.

You know what's crazy depressing? Everyone here is complaining at not getting a break as an existing customer, where Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T all came out with newer plans which the VAST MAJORITY of their base switched to already. Thus the newer offers work better for them because they are already on higher plans.

 

No one seems to make an apples to apples comparison, just moving goal posts.

How do you know?

My executive services rep yesterday stated that....We'll see if he's wrong or not!!!!

 

All I know is it's supposed to include 10gb hotspot so far.

A few people in the subreddit say that they'll be offering Unlimited Freedom with HD + 10GB Hotspot for existing customers and they'll waive the subsidy fees. Some of the employees confirm it, so I guess we'll see tomorrow.

Oh, for customers already on unlimited freedom plans.

If this pricing isn't made available to all Sprint customers, even those on Legacy Everything Data or Unlimited My Way plans, I think there's going to be a real problem.

That'll be dumb move for Sprint/Marcelo to exclude users on those plans.

It will be interesting to see if this offers anything to us older (even more loyal?!) ED1500 customers, as well . . .

If Sprint doesn't offer this new Unlimited Freedom pricing to all existing customers on Unlimited Freedom and Legacy Plans, like Everything Data and Unlimited My Way, I think there's going to be a real problem with ports out.

 

Perhaps it took time to update the billing system to accept a new pricing model for all the legacy customers. However, I'm sure the number of Legacy people who ported out was noticeable to Sprint over the past week.

Didn't we already pretty much confirm that people on Unlimited Freedom are simply getting an upgrade and those on other plans like ED1500 will get the one we see when we change plans?

 

The 2 lines for $100 with autopay. $90 if you have an employee discount on top of that.

I agree. In my opinion, it never had to come to this. Sprint could have just offered current Sprint customers better pricing at the time that the plan was updated for new customers on Unlimited Freedom to get the HD Streaming upgrade and 10 GB of Hotspot.

 

Instead, you've had a number of loyal customers leave over the past week, and Sprint is trying to win them back on a case-by-case basis with Winback Credits and calls, which takes up substantial employee time and resources,

I tried getting them to give me the $160 for 4 lines deal with waived subsidy fees, we're customers for 18 years. The bill is almost $270 and new people get away with much less. It's ridiculous, they couldn't work something out and they're fine with me switching.

    • If so, I'm wanting to see if any others of you have been having intermittent internet issues.   The last week or two, internet just seems to intermittently stop/pause for various periods of time....when the halt/pause lets up throughput will seem normal/very snappy as you'd expect on a 1 Gig line, until its not again.  My desk with both personal PC and work laptop are in our basement with a Cat 6 run straight from the Verizon router.  I've mostly noted it when trying to go through and clean out mail from my hotmail account I've had a few decades now (to be clear off that mention, I don't have decades worth of mail pending ha - like 100-200 unreads max if that each time I go through them), but I know its not something relegated to only the outlook.live.com endpoint because I check other tabs/sites when the issues crop up and they're hanging/spinning too. I've not yet tried calling VZ tech support and wanted to check/poll for others here to see if anyone using the service might have been wrestling with similar issues.   Addendum:  Both the ONT box (in our living room, not outside) and the white standup VZ router have been cycled before a couple times.  Have also tried changing between ethernet ports on the back for the Cat 6 cable with no change over long term behavior.
    • Same here, haven't had a single issue with RCS
    • Mapped two n41 small cell sin Jersey City today. They're the first two to be mapped there in Jersey City as far as I can tell and interestingly they're consecutive gNBs, possibly indicating they were installed around the same time. gNB 1088335 appears to be an upgrade of an older small cell. It looks identical to the T-Mobile n41 small cell I mapped earlier this year in Old Westbury.   I also mapped gNB 1088334 in Newport. This small cell appears to be a new build as I couldn't find any evidence of an older small cell in that area. Unfortunately no pic of it since I didn't even notice that I mapped it until I got home and I can't find it in Streetview.
    • Someone told me a couple years ago, that there were problems getting certain modems to aggregate overlapping spectrum even if the overlapping parts were actually blanked. So I think there might be firmware issues that need to be resolved first, which T-Mobile might not consider worth the effort for 4MHz at this time.
    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
