| Re: [help] Correct forum??? I think so... Ok. Here's another question. I got off the phone with a Sprint rep and they said since my contract ends on the 25th but my billing ends on the 11th, they'd have to cancel my contract ON the 11th. Now....Can I port the numbers over to AT&T BEFORE the date of the 11th and still not be charged the ETF?
Cause he said I could port the numbers over to the new carrier before the 11th and NOT be charged an ETF because I'd still be paying for the contract until the 11th. BUT....if I choose to port the numbers anytime AFTER the 11th (keeping in mind the technical contract date is the 25th), that I'd be charged of ever many days PAST the cancellation date of the 11th.
Hope I didn't confuse anyone.

| Re: [help] Correct forum??? I think so... You won't be cancelling the CONTRACT on the 11th, but cancelling the SERVICE. You are *required* to ride out the contract until a specific date, after which you are free to switch. Take a look at your contract to see if what the CSR says makes any sense. It sounds like they would be charging you for any phone usage past the end of a billing cycle/date.
Why can't you simply wait a week to cancel service and port out to ATT(?) Also, why would you think simply because someone on the internet told you it would be possible to circumvent what the Sprint CSR has told you regarding ETF means it must be true(?) | |

You don't understand I'm just sick of the damn phones and their mediocre service that it's like, the sooner the better type of thing. Besides...if what the CSR said is true and I can get outta the service BEFORE the 11th, port the numbers withOUT an ETF, and NOT be billed anything AFTER the 11th, then why should I NOT port out earlier than the 11th?
And I'm not trying to see what's "true" or not. I'm trying to get other peoples opinions on the matter. Which is basically what a forum is used for. | |

| You don't have to wait until the billing cycle end. If the contract ends on the 25th, you can cancel on the 25th. I think there was a lawsuit about this issue with TMO. You can use it to remind Sprint that you don't have to wait until the billing cycle ends. | |

Why would I want to wait till the 25th if I'm given the option of canceling on the 11th? | |
