Re: Lower Price?

My gf switched to sprint from Nextel 3 weeks after the merger and they didn't charge her an ETF and her contract was just 6 months old.

They do charge the ETF, but then refund it. You don't ever have to actually pay the ETF (as I later found out), but I went ahead and paid it as I didn't trust them to apply the credits properly.

They expect you to carry the ETF as a final bill with Nextel, until Sprint sends the check to Nextel. I told them to just send the check to me.

Re: Lower Price?

after their merger i was allowed to change to Sprint from Nextel with no ETF. The only thing I had to do was wait 9 months on the Nextel side. If i didnt wait the 9months i would have been charged an ETF.

Re: Lower Price?

no i only had to be a Nextel customer for 9 months. 9months in after the contract i could transfer to Sprint without any problems. And did so. The only problem i had was with the outsourced service reps on the Sprint side. Which is why i left the company as a whole.
