		<description>Sprint is AWESOME!!! I&#039;ve been a customer for over 5 years now and only have good things to say about them. About every 6-12 months I get a brand new phone and each time I just simply call or email them and ask if my activation fee can be waived and they do it without hesitation! Of course my contract is extended for 2 years but that&#039;s no problem because I don&#039;t see myself switching to another company anytime soon. Sprint is simply the Best. period.</description>

		<description>Sprint and Verizon story.

So I&#039;m on Verizon now and my business is changing and I need a better comm device like a Blackberry.  My old phone broke so its perfect timing I think.  I ask if they can give me a special deal if I extend my contract to another 2 years, upgrade to a dataplan, and get a Blackberry.  Their response?  No.  You can&#039;t.  You&#039;re not up for a new phone yet.  But I&#039;m going to double my monthly rate, extend my contract, and you&#039;ll make more money.  You can&#039;t give me a discount on the Blackberry?  New customers get it for $199, they say &quot;no.. you have to pay retail &gt;$500&quot;  What is the contract cancel fee?  $178.  I do the math, if I quit, join Sprint again and get a Blackberry I actually save $150.  Do the math Verizon.  Also when I used to be with Sprint I suddenly had to go to Japan and cancel my contract.  They waived the penalty and told me &quot;That&#039;s not what the penalty is for.&quot;  You know who regained my business?  Sprint is great.</description>

		<description>Well, I tried your suggestion about the 10% discount, and it didn&#039;t quite work.  They must have gotten wind of the info being floated on the Web!  I was asked what phone number was on the flyer (I gave both mine and my wife&#039;s number, but of course, I hadn&#039;t actually received a flyer), and the representative said that she couldn&#039;t pull up a flyer for eiher of us (no surprise there).  She said that in instances where Sprint has no record of the flyer, we can 1) either fax them a copy of it, and upon their receipt of the fax, give us the 10% discount, or 2) just give us a $5 month credit.  As you can imagine, I went with option 2.  And, I still did have to agree to a new, 2-year contract (which I put on my wife&#039;s line, since I want a new phone soon).  

Now, if somebody can help me find a valid promotional code that I can use to save some $$ at the checkout on SPRINT.COM when I buy that new phone (I&#039;m thinking the Treo 700p), that would be most excellent!  

Have a good one.</description>

		<description>Sprint has good coverage but lousy customer service.  I&#039;ve never been granted anything I&#039;ve ever asked of them.  check out http://sprint.screed.us for a story on how they keep customers</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve had Sprint for over 10 years now...the best wireless phone service provider IMHO.  Nice to hear about good things from them.</description>

		<description>I have sprint as well and will have to keep this in mind.  I went over a few months ago but it was only a little bit so it wasn&#039;t worth any hassel.  I have to say, though, the couple of times I have called their customer service has been pretty good.</description>
