Yeah, I took advantage of it on my AT&T Family Share plan. I had the 15GB plan, but now have 30GB. But since most people I know have the 10GB plan on AT&T, they will have to upgrade to get the double promotion. So it's going to generate a lot of revenue for AT&T.

So maybe Marcelo's tweets were representative of what was happening as a whole after all. Verizon and AT&T customers are porting over to Sprint more than they expected.

Yes they are. But the double data promotion is only on big plans and unsubsidized. Just on no contract and AT&T Next accounts. And since most iPhone accounts are subsidized, it still leaves a big gap of potential subscriber losses.

 

Since Sprint will pay ETF's and provide subsidies to AT&T iPhone customers to upgrade, they will still continue to leave en masse. iPhone for life and 20GB Family Share Plan for $100 are great deals.

Until ATT or Verizon plan on turning up the data at the $100 data bucket price point, color me unimpressed.

If I was with another provider right now, after experiencing what I have with my iPhone 6, I would head straight to sprint and recommend it to anyone in this city. It's amazing the difference. I have service everywhere I go, except the damn target and my apartment...

 

And by experiencing I mean the 14 day test trial money back guarantee period. Sprint needs to work out an easier way to try out Triband service. I know a lot of people would jump on it

Its getting interesting, I would like to see sprint "tweak" the plans ... $15 access fee for the smaller plans or something..

 

Now let's see what Verizon does..

Once iPhone supplies catch up to demand they should roll out a test drive program similar to T-Mobile. A lot of people still skeptical of sprint but may try out on a test drive.

I agree. I got one of my friends to switch from Verizon and I met up with her today and she is very pleased with sprint. She even said that she's gotten coverage in places that she didn't with Verizon.

I asked my neighbor to try Sprint (Verizon) but she did not.  They have three lines with 10GB of data and her 12 year old daughter burns through most of it in a couple of weeks even with wifi at home (which she forgets about when she gets home from school).  Oh well...

All the more reason to stick that little girl on a unlimited iPhone plan lol.

Saw a TV commercial last night that advertised the $100 family plan, then added the $50 unlimited individual plan, all in one shot ...instead of separate commercials. They seem to be pointing towards a 'something for everyone' approach with ad campaigns. I guess RIP the hamster.

It didn't mention iPhone though ..it only mentioned $50 unl data, text, minutes.

I'm betting sprint will math them.

 

÷≥√=×, take that, AT&T!

Good riddance! Sprint finally kicked its rodent problem!

 

There is a new Sprint commercial for the iPhone plan with the hamster's wife.....

 

 

 

 

 

Maybe GorDon will reappear too. ;)

I was inside a building with someone today and my EVO LTE had LTE, but their Verizon iPhone did not :-D

 

To be fair, though, she might still have a 3G only iPhone.

This happens around here too.  I have a Nexus 5 and I'll be sitting with -105dBm LTE while my Verizon friends are all the way down to 1x or no service on their Galaxy S3's.

    • It took a couple of months but this site is finally back online.  I was certain that a decommission permit would come through one day since it was offline for over 3 months but I passed by it today and it was working again. — — — — — This site is also finally live. This was probably the longest I had ever seen a site take to go live once all hardware was installed, about 3 months. Hopefully the site in Long Island City doesn't take as long.
    • So while we wait for @RAvirani to fix the website, I was able to connect one of my phones to Verizon n77 on a site with an NCI that appears to be adjacent to an NCI that was already in my database. Specifically, the site I call Taylor Run has been observed with these NCIs on n77: 44EEE469A 44EEE46AA 44EEE46AB 44EEE46BA 44EEE46BB I separately connected to the site I call Fairlington on its beta sector on n77: 44EEE46DA 44EEE46DB I'm assuming alpha sector is 44EE46CA/B.  With this data, I learned two things: 1) They're clearly not tracking the LTE GCIs with the NR NCIs.  Taylor Run is 1B61Fxx, while Fairlington is 1B680xx, not sequential. 2) It's clear that they're not using three byte sectors.  They're not even using two byte sectors like LTE does.  It looks to be done in an oddball fashion like how Dish is doing things.  Best I can come up with is a site ID that's something like: (NCI-0x20)/(0x30) It's possible it's actually (NCI+0x10)/(0x30) but I'm not really sure.  I also haven't connected to anything outside my immediate area here to know if this is consistent with other regions.  Not entirely sure how to persuade a device to do so, my Dish phone just connects to n77 at random in lieu of going to no signal.  (No data passes.) My take is to "break" the site notes for Verizon NR the way it was done with Dish NR, so at least the notes don't get copied to inconsistent sites, as has happened when I connected to Fairlington (came up as "Taylor Run").  It seems that Verizon, AT&T, and Dish all need work on the NR side to make sure site notes work properly.  Frustrating that they didn't standardize that for NR the way they did for LTE.  T-Mobile and US Cellular (while it lasts) seem to have done it the way I would have done it.  The others, not so much. - Trip
    • I tried to access that forum but it says I need a password. Is it limit to certain contributors?    I was going to report that the website is broken. For days it's been saying unable to retrieve signal data then going to a 404 error.
    • Sorry, I forgot about it when I posted previously.  And then I was talking to chamb by e-mail and away from my computer and suggested posting here.  Moved the posts to the proper spot. - Trip
    • It is probably better to post topics related to the map in the dedicated thread to help keep things organized and secure. This thread is big enough as it is, just want to try help keep things on track!
