trial period

spankmeplease

Sep 17, 2009, 8:56 PM
does sprint have a trial period to try out the coverage. i really want to switch from verizon, i have never been more dissapointed from a phone than i was from the storm. it really rubbed me the wrong way that they released the phone period, then to hear approximately 6 months after release they were already planning storm2. the only thing that keeps me with verizon is the coverage. i could save alot of money monthly by switching to sprint and i love the pre. any recomendations or info? TIA

We didn't force you to keep the phone. And you can upgrade after 1 year.

I wonder if VZW611LA is actually Verizon's CEO? As much as he posts on here....and with the ridiculous statements one would assume so!

this is to VZW611LA.
your right, but how in the hell are you really going to know whether or not the phone will really perform within 30 days. i wanted to trust my wireless provider and give the benefit of the doubt. i am still flabbergasted that verizon and RIM would allow a phone so underdeveloped to reach the main stream. how in the hell can the biggest smartphone manufacturer and the nations largest wireless carrier release a touchscreen phone without an autolock feature for when you are on the phone talking. no one caught that in development? so i have to buy an app to keep buttons from being pressed while i hold it to my face. not to mention the services are becoming more expensive by the day. Come out with unlimited for $99 and i wil...

I could care less on what you thought of the phone. You had 30 days and did not take it back. And coolest and newest phones? A phone with no Micro SD slot is cool? Okay 🤣 . Go, please! Sprint needs all they can get before they go under. You will be back when we get 4G phones next year. 🤣

Pre? Haha. Palm didn't even sell 1 million of them! Wait, Palm didn't even sell 1 Million PHONES! 🤣 Verizon is launching 2 HTC Android phones this year and 1 Motorola Android. Sprint = 1 all together. 😢 Why? Because that's all they can afford. The iPhone has killed AT&T's network. It hasn't really hurt Verizon. We still have the lowest churn and highest ratings in Customer service and network reliability. Im a d-bag? okay... haha! Sprint has... the pre. AT&T has... iPhone. Wow, amazing.

No....what is amazing is the ridiculous fanboy garbage you spew. Verizon is the best....everything else sucks! Had it not been for the takeover of Alltel you guys wouldn't even be in first place. Check the numbers lately? At&t is adding more subs than you guys are. And admit it....the Storm sucks. Period. And for your quote that Sprint is only getting one Android device this year, you again have failed. Multiple Android devices will be released by the end of the year. Funny thing is you sit here and bash the Pre but when your DBag CEO McAdams announced Verizon was getting the Pre you were one of the first to post "hooray Verizon." It is unbelievably immature and childish for you to go into other forums and post nonsense fanboy garbage. Try h...

Your whole message complete bs. 🤣 You have no idea about 4G LTE on Verizon. AT&T wont catch up to us. The Pre did not sell good. And Alltels network has not gone to crap. This just shows how little you know of anything. We don't treat our workers like crap. You lie. This stuff is so funny it making me laugh. You have no idea what you are talking about. 🤣

And who are you anyways? How long have you worked in wireless? How long have you een out of high school?

My guess is you are probably either an entry level retail or indirect rep.

So what does that mean you know about wireless? Absolutely diddly squat.

How many markets EXACTLY is Verizon launching with LTE next year? When? What handsets? What markets? You don't have the answers to any of those questions except what you google.

My whole message was the TRUTH. Alltel's network has gone to complete $hit since the takeover. How about this story from a business customer of mine....his eight year rep with Alltel brought in the new Verizon rep, who told the customer his existing rep was being laid off and then showed the customer ho...

LOL, fist you post lies, then call someone else out... how bout you stop being a huge hypocrite. Palm sold well over a million phones, they announced they sold 800k winmo phones this year so far. And when the pre cam out and they announced Verizon was getting it next year, you were the first to post how good it was and how much better its going to be on Verizon. You make me sick. And they wont have any 4g phones for Verizon next year, you guys don't even have a 4g usb card yet.


And also never talk about people having no idea what they are talking about. You post more bs and random Verizon propaganda, than big red commercials. You have no idea what your talking about, the only thing you know is what you read from the Verizon pamphlets yo...

Our 4G USB card will be out in 2 months... Our 4G network is already live in many markets, 2 will be out to the public in December.

And I have no idea what I'm talking about... haha!

Again with your bs; yes verizon will have an aircard, but you said 4g phone!!! So lie number 1. And Lie number 2 you said sprint is getting 1 android phone we will have 2 out before you do. We will have the hero and the instinct q. Do your research!

1: I said Verizon will have a 4G phone next year in 2010.
2: I said they were geting 1. The next day they announced 2 (instinct q). Okay, 2... wow. Verizon will have 4 now. HTC Desire, HTC Passion, HTC Predator, Motorola Sholes. You could say 5 if the Motorola Calgary is a phone it self and not a codename for the Sholes.

You still have yet to name the many markets that are launched with LTE.....name them.

And what about your post drooling over the Pre?

You talk yourself in circles.

There will be no LTE handsets next year. Aircards....yes. Phones....NO!!!!!! If so post the link as you so much like to do. Let me guess....It will be a 4G Iphone that is a Verizon exclusive!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

1) I said we were launching 4G in many markets in 2010.http://news.softpedia.com/news/Verizon-W ireless-Unveils-More-on-Its-4G-LTE-Plans-1224 79.shtml

We are launching 2 this year. Boston and Seattle. Markets as in NYC, Las Vegas, ATL, and many more.

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Verizon-Wireless-Unve ... »

Next, I could care less about the Pre. It's another OS... okay... wow... It doesn't even support a Micro SD slot...

I can tell you are no older than... 17? And yes we will have a 4G phone in 2010. LG will make it. As we all know it will support CDMA and LTE. 4G is being used as data only until we get everything up and going for the whole US which should be done in 2013.

Verizon Wireless that uses 611 in Los Angelas. You my friend, are the biggest retard known to mankind. Reading your posts were pathetic, ignoring the current valid argument and spitting out your own nonsense. You should drop Verizon and become a lawyer, since all you do is spit bul$hit.

Son, you need to get your balls dropped and get your #enis sucked, then MAYBE you'll be one step closer to manhood. Forget about sex, that's way out of your league, maybe you should go to your mother first and have her teach you the basics?... since you're probably still living at home anyway.

But then again, that's the only pity I'm showing you, once you man up come see me again. And please, don't comeback with "ZOMG VERZION WILL HAVE 4G PHONES OU...

pre is a much better phone than the storm could ever hope to be. how many storms have been sold? now of that total how many people are happy with there purchase? who gives a crap about an android phone? they have no mass appeal. there are a limited number of people who will be interested in these phones, people who are famaliar and up to date on technology. your average soccer mom will be scared to use these phones and will not buy. the iphone may have killed their network but to say it hasnt hurt verizon is laughable. over 20 million phones sold. if the average monthly fee was $50 which we know is low, would be 1 billion dollars. i dont care who you are or how strong your company is that is one hell of a dent in the subscriber base.you may ...

lol who is we, are you Verizon??? 🤣

And yes Verizon lied to customers telling them hang on an update will be out shortly, they didn't fix that phone till like 5 months down the line. And customers that returned the device even though it was severely flawed where charged a 35$ restocking fee. Thats pretty much forcing to me.

Sprint will allow you to try thier services for 30days. if you dont like it they will void the contract and the activation fee and only charge you for the days you had it. 🙂 hope this help. VZW sucks. Go Any Mobile. Anytime.

Wow, so all of those replies and no answer.
Sprint does have a 30 day "trial period" All this means is that if you cancel within the first 30 days there will be no ETF. You will still pay for the days of service that you use.
