Default Important Message for SPRINT Customers!

apparently sprint upped their text messaging rates to $.15ea. this is considered a policy change and per their customer agreement you have till Oct. 31st to cancel your service without any penalty if you want to. just thought i would mention it for those who want out without a fee. heres a link to more info

Sprint Rate Hike Means Penalty-Free Cancellation

Michele Kane
Reporting

(CBS 13) Sprint is hiking its text message fee to $.15, which means that you can get out of your contract.

And it's all thanks to the fine print in this service agreement! Sprint states they can raise your rates at any time. But it also says if they raise rates you can cancel your contract without a penalty.

If you use Sprint's service or make payments on or after the effective date of change, you have accepted the changes. If Sprint changes a material term of the agreement and that change has a material adverse effect on you, you can terminate the agreement without a fee by calling 1-888-567-5528 within 30 days after the change goes into effect.

The fee hike just went into effect October 1. They say you only have a month to get out of your contract.

Woohah! I just canceled my service last week. After three years with them and being out of contract, they offered me a worse deal on a new phone than a new customer. Hello, Verizon! You rule!
