Re: Does it need a plan??

I have minimal coverage at my home. Was hopping to just purchase the unit and let it burn minutes. I never go over so adding unlimited family would be dumb. But now with the full launch the want me to pay $4.99 to offload airtime from the towers dumping it onto the internet saving them money and wanting to charge me for it. I don't think so.

Guess I have to put up with them until December. I have had it with the mickey mouse company.

Re: Does it need a plan??

Yeah, that doesn't make much sense. If someone has coverage problems at home, they have to pay $100 + $5/mo? They should be using this as a tool to keep customers from leaving to a competitor that has better coverage in their home. At least, that's what I think.

Re: Does it need a plan??

Yeah, that would be the "right" thing to do, from both a customer service and business perspective. Unfortunately, Sprint (Wireless division) values neither, and will probably be out of business/merged/absorbed in the next year.
