Two years has been great...but I need out!

Yes...this is going to be like a bad breakup! I have had Nextel for 2 years and will miss them dearly. However, here in far Eastern North Carolina you either fly with USCC...or you get used to seeing "NO SERVICE". I have recently moved and live 40 miles away from the closest Nextel coverage area. Anyone know any tricks, clauses, etc to get out of my contract without paying this rediculous fee? In my eyes I paid them for cell service, and it's not my fault they can't cover an area where I'm free to move to. However I know I have to convince Big Yellow of this.

I'm assuming they'd let you out of your contract if you provide proof you no longer reside in their coverage area.

I also reside in Eastern NC where when I moved I had zero coverage with nextel. I was 6 months into the contract and called customer service and they let me out of it without the ETF.

I dont think you'll have a problem

VERY true. That's why i called and first asked how the service was at a address. They told me no service available and more than likely, wouldn't have any for quite some time. I said ok.. I want to cancel. 😁

I am a Nextel Rep. You should have no problem getting out of your contract if you explain to them your circumstances. If they give you problems, there are other ways to get out legally. I am happy to hear you were/are happy with the service otherwise. Hopefully we will make the coverage better in NC soon. 🙂
