Re: Sprint's roaming policy

in the Sprint forum

artax80 said: Now I'm confused about this. I'm considering switching to Sprint from Verizon. My boyfriend has Sprint and we need to do some sort of share plan. When I was in a local Radioshack this week, I was told if I was in any of Sprint's roaming areas (since their main service seems to just follow interstate) I would be charged roaming, anywhere from .69-1.09 per minute depending on where I was. Is this incorrect? ...

The thing is with these providers is they charge way too much for the handset and I'm sure there are other draw backs too, but I stopped looking when I saw they want 200.00 for a SE47 and 300.00 for a KX2, AFTER rebates. I'll stick with what I got, thanks.

I went to the spcs store and asked the mgr to order the 6600 for me, he said he'd try but only knew of the 6601 being available, sure enough the 6601 arrived a few days later, he did a little investigating and the 6600 is hoped to be available in late feb.- early mar. if it's to be released. You can see the blanks used to fill the gaps where the cemera would go on the 6601, ...

Even Radio Shack won't sell them, and they're not exactly known for treating their customers right. please back up your statements with personal experience if your going to make a slanderous comment against a individual or company. Yes I work for the Shack and we are known as the place to go to get your questions answered for a reason, we take care of our customers and we get them what's right for their needs.

good luck to ya, just a thought though, if you start a new line with a alternate svc. provider, I'm almost positive you can't port a number on to that line at a later time, it has to be done at the time of start-up. btw don't focus on just SPCS in your litigation, name the other user in the case as well.

Re: Qwest and VZW merge????/
Jul 7, 2004, 4:48 PM
in the Verizon forum

not really, because the customer doesn't pay radio shack or the dealer every month, they get a bill from verizon or whatever svc. provider. Qwest bills their own cust. base, and sets their own rate plans, so will the "new" AT&T. 8)

well, they are doing something, the same thing that everybody else is, offering you a phone at the same price as a new customer when you recommit for 2 yrs. that's a hell of a lot better than a year ago when you woul'd have got nothing but your activation fee waived. If half off an already subsidized retail price isn't enough to make you happy, well then you may be the type that is never happy, and ...

Mac, First off let me say that I believe "Big-poppa" is a FORMER SPCS employee, I think I saw a post that he was "given the option to leave the company", so he doesn't speak for the company. Secondly, in Dealer stores such as Radio Shack and others, the offers are not always the same as in company stores. working for a dealer that sells SPCS and VZW I run into customers everyday that want to upgrade their phone, some ...

I've been a customer for 6 months, therfore I deserve a new phone. Verizon owes me for my phone getting wet. Besides, about 1 ...

If you connect during off peak time than the usage will be free, if you use it during peak time it will count off your minutes accordingly. If you do access your ISP in this way, (dialing a 7 or 10 digit #) it's ...

all things stated in my post is based on personal experiance or reliable information from other t-mo cust. (i.e. family members). and I hate to break to ya but you can clone a t-mo phone by intercepting the phones signal when the phone is powered on, no contatct with user is required. as far as coverage none of t-mo's phones worked @ my house and I live in the mpls metro area.

moviespaz said: Forget Verizon. T-Mobile offers a better selection of phones, and better customer service, with a ONE YEAR CONTRACT ONLY. T-Mobile offers the best deal possible with a 1-year contract, every other carrier tries to stick you with a 2-year contract for a "better deal." I think the better deal is your ability to choose your wireless carrier without having to sign your life away. Who knows where you'll be one year from now, let alone TWO. P.S. You ...

did u buy the phone at a spcs store or did you get it @ a 3rd party, some places have different return policies on the phone vs. spcs contract policy (14 days on contract, 30 days return/exchange on handset), as a 3rd party rep myself I often recomend useing cust care only for billing issues, anything else go back to where you got the phone or a SPCS store so you have someone face to face to speak ...
