Sprint Mobile Connection Card To Remain Unlimited Gigs

nickjacket

I just got off the phone with Sprint Support. They have strongly emphasized that my Connection Card Data Plan UNL will remain unlimited.
I mentioned the rumor about new customers having the bandwidth limit imposed instead and they said that's not true either. Very Happy

Just to be a tower pig, I called them on my VOIP phone through the card.

It's been a real cliff-hanger to read all these long threads about end-of-times telephony but now I can go back to work and play.

There is a thread with over 400 replies on this topic and yet you make another one simply to say its not true and everyone should take your word for it.

I think 3G has some better inside contacts than your CSR you spoke with. May as well go back in play your good till the 13th of July.

Yes, you have to take my word for it and if you don't... I swear... I'll use 14 point type!

I talked to 3 reps, the last one having put me on hold (proof of collaboration) for a while before giving me an official word.
They were very confident and were not confused, under-informed or ill-advised.

I would rather run with the current stand on Sprint policy than entertain the possibility that a competitor is running muckrake "this is it" posts on evdoforums just to see how many Sprinters jump ship.
It would be cheap and easy to post negatives so my 40 minute call investment feels pretty good right now.

I'm not trying to sway opinion, just pass on better news. I'm not in the business either.

If 1/8th of the 400 end-of-evdo-as-we-know-it folks would call Sprint too and get word along with a case number for the conversation, it could go a long way if the caller wants to be grandfathered into UNL service, just in case there's a contradictory corporate decision down the line.

If a judge were to see the transcript of a case numbered decision to favor a UNL account throughout the entire contract period or possibly beyond, a customer could recover more than a rebate if they're being denied critical and irreplaceable service.

I wish a Sprint rep would tell me I was going to die tomorrow, because then I'd know that I will live a thousand years.

None of them could find their own butts with both hands. If you really want to play the, "a rep told me so" game, the best thing you can do is ask them to put it in writing like a man. A verbal agreement isn't worth the paper its printed on.

Just went into sprint store. I have Verizon but thought about trying Sprint to see if I could get better speed. The salesman was still pushing that Sprint is unlimited. I dont know!

Never rely on verbal information when it comes to contracts not matter who the vendor is. Only go with what is in writing from official contracts or statements, not individuals who work there. Many CSR's don't know about this yet because it's not officially in effect yet.

It sounds to me that Sprint won't be strictly enforcing this but they do have to get rid of any mention of unlimited data in ads by the time this officially goes into effect. So much for the 'Simply Everything' plan.
