Then cancel the service and go back to sign up for it again--bringing your own Sprint device, with no contract.
Can you do this?

This makes me glad I went with Millenicom. No Contract, and No Caps.

I successfully got of my contract tonight but it was a bit painful. I posted my experience »Cancelled Sprint MBB My Sprint Customer Service Experience

I signed up for Sprint MBB in the middle of May. I found out about the 5gb cap a week or two later. I cancelled and returned my card on the 30th day. They tried to talk me out of it stating the cap was for roaming ONLY. I wasn't confident enough to take their word for it considering that I would lose the money I spent on the card if I went on any further.

I think I will wait to see how this all pans out before I reconsider.

Just for the sake of others who may have a hard time trying to find Sprint's TOS.

Anyway - here's the TOS link:

»nextelonline.nextel.com/en/legal···rranty#1

Listed here:
Data Usage Limitation (Mobile Broadband Cards, USB Modems, Imbedded Modems and Phone-As-Modem): The amount of data transmitted over our network is measured in kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB) or gigabytes (GB). Sprint reserves the right to limit throughput speeds or amount of data transferred; and to deny, terminate, modify, disconnect or suspend service if usage either exceeds (a.) 5GB/month in total or (b.) 300MB/month while off-network roaming. 1024 KB equal 1 MB. 1024 MB equal 1 GB.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I still haven't received a new notice with my paper or digital bill...

I got my bill yesterday. It says "unlimited megabytes". I didn't see anything else hinting about the caps.

I'll post a screen shot tonight.
