Re: Only for retail users
I think the best thing you're going to get from any lawsuit is the ability to get out of your contract with no ETF. |

All the wireless carriers have a provision in their contracts that state if they change anything, you are free to leave without penalty. In essence they have a clause baked in that allows them to change anything they want, with your only recourse being to cancel without ETL.

In other words, they've sent us notices about the impending capping, have press releases, CEO blogged about it and the works. But when it comes down to verbally acknowledging it, they deny. When people call in to cancel, they are told there is no such thing as caps, it wont effect anyone, blah blah blah. Just don't worry about the notices. Then after the grace period is over to cancel, they start ringing everyone’s neck. That is my take on Sprints inner and outer works. |

Maybe, but the objective is to either 1) ban this practice 2) force them to live up to their contracts as actual "terms" (ie: if I purchased a 2 year "unlimited broadband card" plan, then I should be entitled to get my 2 years) 3) allow for termination of plans with out ETF 4) Shape policy for the future 5) penalize Sprint for their practice and also ban others from doing the same as well.
It's not all about money.. it's the erosion of the law in this country that I can't stand. These so-called contracts these providers are using these days are complete and utter BS. Personally, I'd like to see them come to an end. |
