Ridiculous Cell Phone Charges for a Not So Great Phone Company
So, I signed up for a sprint 2 year contract this past summer getting the Everything Data plan. I like to use the net, download etc. About two months later I downgraded to the Everything Texting plan. My next bill was great. It was 50.40 cents. I could not afford the 70.00 charge they were charging for the internet. To my surprise my bill jumped to 183.94 for internet use, and then another 40.00 for god knows what. I called Sprint and complained and told them I wasn't going to pay the bill. I didn't use the web on my phone since I changed the plan, but they still claimed the charges were right. I have just been avoiding them. They call me weekly now trying to get money from me and I tell them the same thing, I'm not going to pay for something I didn't do and I still don't plan to. Sprint is ridiculous.

Unacceptable actions
I notified Nextel/Sprint of a change of address and then moved. They did not change my address in their records. When I went to purchase Verizon phones they said that the old number was not transferable. I did not know that I had an amount oweing and I did not receive any bills for 2 1/2 months, then was charged 135.48 for passed due service. Before I moved, my Nextel phone died. If I had received my bills at the new address as I requested, I would have cancelled the service and saved $80.00.

Awful service
I lost my phone back in Dec. 2007. I immediately called to cancel and disconnect my service being that my contract had expired and it was on a month to month. Almost 3 months later I'm receiving a bill charging me for the months after I had already cancelled. I called Sprint and they're saying that I didn't really disconnect that I cancelled service. They're misleading the customer when you say disconnect and they say ok were going to cancel it for you. Then they continue to bill you. How can I have them disconnect a phone for which I have no more. There giving me a hard time and I believe I shouldn't have to pay from the day I first made that call.

Bad service
I called Sprint customer service to change my CSA from CA to NJ. The representative, did something and after a long wait she said, my current mobile number changed and says sorry - i can't do anything. When i said, how is that possible as there is an option of keeping the same number with any service provider, then she said she put on a internal ticket and will get back to me to restore my mobile number with 24-48 hrs. Since i did not recieve any call for the nect 24 hrs, i called up and the reprsentative said as it is not 48 hrs, still there is no response. After 48 hrs there is no response and i called in after 72 hrs and asked to speak to a supervisor of the representative - he said right now no body is availble and he will put a system message so that his supervisor will call in within 45 min. It has been 16 hrs since then and there is no response form Sprint. Each one of the representatives i spoke to says different things on the same issue. Too bad service from SPrint.

Cell phone scam
I had a sprint cell phone for five years. During that time, I was constantly on the phone with them disputing my bill regularly. My bill would be at least three hundred dollars every month for one line of regular phone service. When I would call Sprint, I would usually get the Phillipians, where they barely spoke english. This company would add extra stuff on that I didn't order--extra plans, extra texting, extra web, tv, etc. They would even hang up on me or put me on hold and never come back. I finally ordered the web to prevent extra charges. They never put it on my phone and tried to bill me seperate for a couple ring tones--in the hundreds of dollars. My final bill from these idiots for regular use (never used my phone much) was $850.00. I told them to shove it, they owe me money! Now I go with Metro PCS. The phone fades in and out once in awhile and you can never get ahold of customer service, but at least my bill is normal every month. Thank you. SPRINT SUCKS BEWARE!

Poor customer service
I was in need of a new phone and eligIble for an upgrade. The phone I ordered was put on back order. After waiting a while for that one we contacted Customer Service and cancelled that order. We were told that we would get a better deal if we ordered the next phone online. So, we did that. Then received an email saying that we needed to contacts Customer Service, which we did. Something went wrong with the online order so we were told to order the phone again. From then on it was a complete nightmare! A series of ordering then being told to contact Customer Service because they needed more infomation before shipping my phone, cancelling yet another order... it went on for a little over 2 weeks. I doubt we talked to the same Service person twice. Had to recant all our information and try to get them to understand our story over and over (it would be nice if we could speak with people who understood English).
We finally received the phone I ordered to replace the one that was on backorder... we have since received another one of the same phone...we had to wait for a return kit for that then pack it up and ship it back... today, a full month later we just received the original phone that was on backorder and supposidly cancelled in the beginning.
I have been trying to get on our online account to see just what is going on with the billing of all these phones that were sent after being told the orders were cancelled...can't get on our account. Tried to talk to live chat, but was told by "Gerry" to just try again later... WHAT'S NEXT SPRINT A LETTER TELLING US YOU'RE DROPPING US???

Beware
Beware!!The Minnesota State Attorney General is Suing Sprint for their practices! We received an $11, 000 bill for an aircard we placed "on vacation" with Sprint. Not sure how it got reactivated without our approval when they seem to be such sticklers about gettting your signature for any changes but it racked up a bill over $11, 000. We contacted our Rep who said it would be taken care of although it would have to "go through corporate". We did not pay this $11, 000 but continued to pay for our cell service (we are a business acct). Well, Sprint kept shutting off our cell phones for non-payment. They always did it on a Saturday and our rep was not available on weekends. Monday, we would get them turned back on and within another 30 days, they'd be off again. This happened about 5 times. We finally did receive credit on our bill for the aircard charges.
Now, we have had to replace a phone that was under warranty. We were not to be billed for the new one, but low and behold, we were bill $249.99 for it. We contacted our Rep who said she would take care of it. We also requested a phone turned off or put "on vacation" since it was no longer in our possession. Well, we have yet to get credit and the missing phone is still operation and we are being charged for it. Our rep will no longer call back. We have requested to discontinue services with Sprint for which they replied with a $200 per phone fee. I am sending a check for $132.65 stating in the memo Full & Final payment for to end services and included the account number. It is for the amount of the services provided to date. I have been informed by our Attorney that if they cash this check which states it is full & final payment since I have already notifed them of my intent to cancel services, they have accepted that amount as full and final payment. As far as I'm concerned, Someone at Sprint did tell me over the phone this was the amount they would accept to terminate service at no extra cost.

Unacceptable
Lets see, where should I begin? Sprint PCS Customer Service STINKS! There is definitely room for a lot of improvement.
I have been a customer of Sprint PCS for quite a few years (over 6) and really had not had any problems with them until I decided to add a 3rd line to my existing account. Of course I was unaware that my plan had become obsolete, which of course Sprint did not bother to communicate to their customers. Needless to say when this was realized by the CSR, everthing went down hill from there.
First of all I was on the phone a total of 2 hrs (10 p.m. - 12 a.m.)and then another 3 1/2 hrs (9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.)the following day, which led to nothing! I was placed on hold, transferred from one department to another and course hung up on a few times and the best one yet, promised a call back after the issue was resolved. The people I spoke with had no clue what needed to be done to add the addional line to my plan (there is no work-around procedure in place for obsolete plans). There isn't a work-around procedure because this is the company's ploy to get more money out of their existing customers, by introducing them to new plan options, which would require another 2 yr contract and more money per month.
After speaking to over a dozen people during my 5 hr ordeal, the best solution that was offered to me is signing up for a new plan. Wow! I was literally flabbergasted. I just could not believe what I had to go through just to add a 3rd line to my EXISTING ACCOUNT!
I don't have a problem with companies changing plans; however, you owe it to your customers to keep them abreast of changes that could impact their services.
A word of advise to Sprint... If you are going to oursource, please outsource to qualified people. For the most part, you get what you pay for. Cheap labor is not always best for a company and Sprint is a prime example of that.
I will definitely change my cell phone service provider after my contract is up. Nobody should be subject to service in this manner by any company... It is unacceptable!

Buyer beware
I chose to discontinue my service with Sprint, because I went in to have an outdated phone replaced. At the Sprint store near my home, the Sprint employees gave the immediate impression that they didn't want to be there and they certainly didn't wish to help me. After a lengthy wait, I received the replacement. However, they refused to replace my cover. My daughter, who is an attractive twenty something, was given a repalcement cover at the time her phone was replaced. So I returned home and attempted to call the Sprint headquarters. I found myself trying to understand someone in "the Phillipines." But the lady in the Phillipines did tell me, "you good customer, you pay ontime all time." It's a shame Spint (in America) didn't acknowledge that! Anyway, shortly after this aggravation, Sprint announced that they were cutting service to some customers who complained too much. If that ain't the skillet calling the kettle black, " I don't know what is? I chose to move my service to another provider. And yes, Sprint stuck me with a four hundred dollar penalty. I attempted to make payments of fifty dollars a month until I paid off this unfair charge, but Sprint informed me that that would be unacceptable and that I would be turned over to a collection agency. To prevent my credit from being damaged in the midst of the current credit crisis, I am going to pay these criminals. I am writing this complaint, knowing it probably won't make a difference, but it may provide me with some form of therapy? Sprint has the sorriest service; the sorriest employees; and piss poor equipment; and still they are able to be in business and prosper. Why? Because this administration and its policies protect corporations and step on individuals. It would probably be the same with those politicians on the otherside too. Anyway, if you need cellular service, think long and hard before you sign with Sprint. Because S=sprint, p=people, r=are, i=idiots, n=and, t=terrorist(of the financial persuasion). "Buyer beware!"

Late Fees
Anyone from California having trouble with Sprint’s late fees? You’re not alone. California consumers are taking on Sprint for inflated late fees.
I work with a law firm trying to help get consumers their money back from Sprint for late fee charges. If you’re a Sprint customer in California and have paid a late fee to Sprint, you can contact the law firm to join the suit or learn more about this investigation by visiting www.hbsslaw.com/sprint.
