If he works for sprint that might explain why they are losing money. Hiring ppl that cant read or write english and give them control over cust accounts.

Danger Will Robinson! Danger! Time to jump the SS Sprint and hop on the Verizon Wireless Express!

Yeah, I can't wait to switch to Verizon so I can enjoy one bar of service inside my house and none where i work. 🙄

Every wireless carrier has weak signal areas within their network of coverage. You watch, Sprint will go down in a ball of Hell fire by the end of the year.

And if they do, whoever winds up with their network and accounts is who I will be making my monthly check out to every month.
Yeah, every network DOES have weak signal areas within their coverage, that was exactly my point. Thanks for agreeing.
And if you work somewhere every day for 8-12 hours per day, 5-6 days per week, you need a phone and network that gets optimal signal within that environment.

Wow someone is dense about what is happening, I guess in your world Sprint needs know improvement. 🙄

Who said Sprint needs no improvement? Certainly not me.
I just think it's stupid to discontinue a service that is working for me to use one that won't simply because the company i currently am subscribing to is having problems.
I could port to AT&T, because they do work well inside my builing at work, but terrible inside my house. Verizon works terrible inside my house, and practically not at all where I work. Same deal with T-Mobile.
Alltel and other regional carriers have no coverage in my market, so they're out. I could get a tracfone, but I couldn't afford it as much as I use...

Yes your right every carrier has issues, people HATE VW and people HATE ATT its all a matter of opinion. I feel the majority of customer go with a provider just because of the cosmetics of that company (phones, advertisment, marketing strategies like movies etc...) If Sprint started bringing in some kid friendly phones it wouldn't be portrayed as a buisness type carrier.
...
if Sprint don't bring everything squared away (esp STOP to provide SERO), sorry, T-Mobile will become the last, but will become no. 3 with 35 million customers in 2 years
...
The number one disaster is that you can't spell....
I think that's more important than Sprint going under, honestly.
Learn your grammer before you "emergency" post. Thanks.

Spell check is not needed here. Just some educated posters. Sadly, there don't seem to be many here.
Another cluck head just posted that Sprint didn't need "know" improvements. Jesus, put down the phone and pick up a book.

Jesus probably didn't have phones. He probably did read a lot as well. 🤣
...
If Jesus didn't have a phone, how did he talk to God so much? Jesus had a cell and it was an iPhone.

Closing almost 10% of retail stores? DUMB. SO where do they expect people to sign up or continue being customers and get service while driving 20+ miles to the nearest Sprint store?
They are seeing the effects of taking in ghetto customers with piss poor credit, by the time if ever they get their chit together market saturation will be here and they will be sol. Where are all the sprint fan boys now, I got sero I am so cool, pls 🤣

Could Q-chat be Sprint's savior. They offer great plans already if people would stop and read them! The only way vzw is any good is if everyone u know has vzw. And forget about getting a signal on a factory floor with vzw. Same for AT&T. The only guarantee these two come with is a high bill. The only real tragedy here is the loss of job's and america's sad reliance on believing what they here about products and services on TV!

This is true but it is up to Sprint to properly protect their name and counter all of the other carriers marketing with great marketing of their own. It is ashame because they actually have a great product but you would never know it. Here are a couple of ideas for the new CEO to implement.
1. SERO Plans become regular plans. Just add $10 to the current costs while retaining unlimited data but have unlimited text as a $10 add on.
2. Completely rebuild you phone portfolio and lock in exclusive deals. Not everyone wants a PDA. The operating system on a Centro can drive a normal user MAD! And why pick up ...

Yes nothing like outsourcing customer service jobs when the reps cannot speak english nor understand it.
...
sprint evening CS calls get routed to Phillipines ( an ex American colony ) , not India, for your info.
...
either way the reps still cant comprehend english, i work for sprint, and i DREAD calling any department that isn't located in the united states because the reps have no clue how to comprehend anything that isn't scripted. i will call and ask them to make me a peanut butter sandwich with explicit instructions on how to do it, and they still ask me, so you want me to wash your car? its just insanely frustrating!

Sorry the Philippines was a Colony of Spain. It was then an American Territory. I guess you were asleep that day in World history way back in your high school days. So for more information on the subject here you go: 😈

regardless, the guy, ucantbeserious is an unhappy camper with racist overtones. even badmouthing Sprint, the company he works for. Shouldn't blame a 3rd world country for his own flawed linguistic capabilities. 👿
...
I tried getting this because everyone makes it out to be the best plan availible and they told me it does not exist anymore.
...
It exists and as long as it survives it's a good deal if you want Sprint as a carrier.

Can you have a family account on this SERO plan? or is it just for 1 line of service.
...
that is only individuals, but think about it, at the price you are paying for a family plan, you would get tons more minutes and features for the same price, for example, the base family plan is $59.99 a month with a free second line, now nights start at 7pm and that's pretty much it, now the sero 500 min plan includes nights at 7pm, unl texting, and unl vision as well as flexible minutes for $30 a month, now 2 lines would be $60 a month and you get 1000 mins total, and all the features
...
Do I need anything to qualify for this plan? Can I take my 3rd line and place it on a SERO plan I just opened it 34 days ago
...
My understanding is that it is supposed to be for new customers.
Sprint users who were going to cancel their service, within the 30 day trial period, or on month to month service after an expired contract have been able to convert their plans to SERO.
You can find more info at slickdeals.

that is not possible, but if you are going to try, use aaron.radelet@sprint.com as a n e-mail address, call the 866 number given, and they will more than likely set you up a totally different account, from there you can transfer your other lines to that account
