By the time you add the unlimited texting and web service you're at $85. Is that really a deal? Boost seems like the best deal hands down. Now if the other carriers follow suit and have $50 unlimited plans that would be awesome.

It's never good enough for people like you is it, lets see vzw or the others do this....as for boost...yea someone can offer paper cup & string calling unlimited for $40/month, doesn't mean i'd jump at it. nothing from sprint or affiliated with them will ever get my money ever again. worst nightmare ever.

I guess people like me with an understanding of elementary mathematics? Do the math you doofus. This is a clear response to Boost's $50 unlimited offering and my point is that the Boost is a better deal. At least where I live the coverage is better on Sprint/Nextel than T-mobile.

Apparently, you don't know your info. This has nothing to do with Boost Mobile. This is because Sprint announced their customer loyalty program, that T-Mobile wants to do the same. But, T-Mobile isn't requiring their customers to be with them for 10 year just to get it. They said 22 months:

Apparently you can't read.

"To qualify for Sprint Premier, consumers must have been a Sprint customer for at least 10 years, or spend over $69.99 per month on an individual plan or $99.99 per month on a plan that shares minutes."

Not a bad deal, i think the only other thing is that the people that haven't been Sprint customers for 10 years have to have the proper plan and have a good payment history for the last few months (can't remember the specifics).

You should really read the whole article next time before posting info from an article that you reference and link in a post.

In marketing, what, when, and how you state something makes all the difference in the world. If you can make your existing/perspective client feel like they are more 'important', or better yet, more 'special' than the next guy you greatly increase the likelihood you'll make the sale. If your customers truly valued your service it would be a sell in itself because you have their loyalty. Getting back to the point, my comment is just to state the fact that it's just an unlimited 'talk' plan and that it's comparably pricey when compared to other truly 'unlimited' plans out there. The 22 month requirement is interesting because the majority of subscribers sign on for 24 months and they are definitely looking to keep their subscribers from the 'o...

I think this is awesome because it will surely level the playing field and hopefully normalize the pricing structure in the cell phone industry. This in turn can only ensure that these cell phone providers will be forced to focus on the quality of their product/service as a selling point to end users.
