The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. Sprint is working on that.
Meanwhile if you want the best customer service T is and will always be the best.
That's what they do. At a premium.
You get what you pay for. That's the bottom line.

Also Sprint had the option to pick up Alltel before VZ did but turned the option down.

But my roommate used to work for VZW in the Columbus Ohio call center and says that it was a known deal to happen and that it was only a matter of time. Alltel held the areas VZW didnt have access to as far as rural areas and that's what they wanted. And in return the areas VZW needed from Alltel they ended up spinning off.

Sprint will get those customers back and its only a matter of time that Nextel customers are moved to the Sprint brand and CDMA network or over to Boost. Also Sprint doesn't state which customers of theirs went from the post paid side to the prepaid side.

They only report them as a loss due to you can NOT port your number from the Sprint CDMA bank to the Boost iDEN bank. Sprint says that it is not possible due to that the phone number is already in use and unable to be ported blah blah blah. You have to port the number out and then back in.

Also only the Apple "geeks" are running after the iPhone and it's not all what its cracked up to be. You don't get 3G speed on it with ATT and you won't get the 3G speeds with VZW either. And who wants a phone that's locked so far down its not even funny.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22338527 Mon, 04 May 2009 17:04:18 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337476 said by en102:

Its interesting how you blame Nextel, yet Boost (aka prepaid Nextel) is adding customers.
Nextel is a business phone. Even though it is the same system, the boost customer is a more casual user. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337476 Mon, 04 May 2009 13:45:32 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337251
Customer service was not great to begin with before Nextel; it really went in the crapper afterwards. Only now is it beginning to come back. Even though their coverage is excellent (I have them) their phone selection is not that great. If Verizon gets the iPhone look for more Sprint customers to bolt. Like me; unless Google Android comes on-line and proves to be a good iPhone alternative.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337251 Mon, 04 May 2009 13:00:27 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337027 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-its-all-Nextel-customers-22337027 Mon, 04 May 2009 12:15:04 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/its-all-Nextel-customers-22336111 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/its-all-Nextel-customers-22336111 Mon, 04 May 2009 08:49:34 EDT
