Advantage Club

Is it true that if I just got hired on 06-05-08 that I have to wait until migrations re-opens next April to bring my second sprint phone over to my Advantage Club? That is what I was told when I called and had My main phone switched to EDRP. My manager is new to his position so he isn't sure, but another manager said that doesn't sound right for new hires to have to wait if we just started. Thanks in advance.

that is correct. unless there is a special form for new hires. but the whole idea behind one migration window is keep arpu high, and i guess every single line is important.

i submitted a form to get a line migrated to advantage club before the june 1 deadline, it was declined because my sisters advantage was 10 days past due, but they reviewed my account and let me migrate the line after the period.

they also cut the number of advantage club lines that we can have. its 10 now, it used to be 20.

a lot of the perks of retail are being taken away: e points (i know they are not gone, but not very attainable on a "national" level), ice awards, and don't even get me started on the new comp plan, my csat scores are stellar, but me gettin...

You can have a maximum of only 10 lines now. If you have more than that they are going to stay but you can not add more. There's going to be a migration window, i thought that it was going to be in june of each year but maybe i was wrong, i thought it was going to be a very small window. You can only add up to 2 people a year to advantage club now, which really blows. I haven't heard anything about only being able to have 3 people on the 15 dollar plan that's probably something i would call EAG about and they'd be able to tell you.

i think you can add as many lines as you want as long as they are not current custies...then you can only migrate a certain number....all you new guys need to take advantage of that edrp air card! 🙂

To confirm, you don't need to add on the blackberry pack for Advantage club lines. I have a few co-workers that have friends that have blackberries, and it includes it.

The only thing that I have seen problems with is like what scoobypls posted in trying to get my navigation working on my Blackberry Pearl. On any other blackberry model, i haven't seen any problems. My LRC has the 8830 and can run nav on it, I still haven't figured out how to use it on my pearl so that I don't have to put in a credit card. Scooby, if you find a way out please let me know lol, So that I can call up and get it fixed.

Thats what Ive been told I needed.. I also got that issue fixed for a customer, had to call tech support, and the lady told me if I had that again, that I needed to call and ask for a "de-pro/re-pro".. programming, I...

I have one line on F&F 500 adv club. I am not an employee of sprint. I was one of those guys that signed up for sero initially and when I was doing an ESN change then my plan was changed to above. I don't know under which employee this plan is under.
Now the question is, I want to add another line to this plan, can it be done ? ANd do I call sprint employee line ? Sprint reps please advise, very much appreciate your input.

No, you wont be able to add any lines to that plan. You might want to hold on to it, once you change your plan, not being an employee you wont be able to get that back.
