After my switch to Sprint went very well this week, I wanted to share some advice with those who plan to switch. For those switching to Sprint for the EVO 3D, here's advice on how to get an excellent deal.
On June 23, the day before the EVO 3D releases, they have two deals expiring. The first offers a $125 credit to anyone who ports from another carrier to Sprint. The second gives an extra 300 minutes to anyone who gets the individual Everything Data 450 plan. That's 300 extra minutes every month for the lifetime of the plan, by the way. All this expires the day before the EVO 3D comes out because they don't want people using these deals on it.
Two solutions.
a) Go to a Sprint store, and tell them you want to preorder the EVO 3D but want to port your number over today and use a temporary phone until you can get an EVO 3D. Try to convince them, it's usually not hard with a good manager.
b) If you can't convince them, get a plan with an EVO 4G today, then return it on June 24 for the EVO 3D. There may be a $35 restocking fee, but you still get $90 off (and, if you got the Everything Data 450 plan, you get an extra 300 minutes every month for your plan's lifetime).
I went with A, and now I get unlimited data/texting/mobile-to-mobile with 750 mobile-to-landline minutes, all for $70 + tax per month. I'm on a Sanyo flip phone for two weeks, after which I get my EVO 3D.
Anyone else switching to Sprint?
I'm currently on tmobile thinking about doing this same thing. Only thing is my preorder is with Best Buy. I wonder and hoping, are they offer these discounts as well?
R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
yeah thats what i did got unlimited data/texting and the 125 dollar credit and no fees to pay. just using my old phone till the new one comes in, cant wait
I have a pre-pay plan at T-mobile. Does that count?
was planning on doing the same thing. I was going to wait until a few days before the 24th release to do the switch like on the 21st-22nd. Just get the Nexus 4G which is $199 and then go back on the 24th and do the switch with your evo 3d preorder.
Have you heard anything else about a restocking fee? I thought there wasn't any fee at all?
Was hoping someone else did this first, they didn't say anything about switching the phones and messing up the $125 dollar credit? Also did you do it at a Sprint store, BB, RS?

Yes it is. Does it mean that I could move it over and get that deal with 300 extra minutes and $125?
Also I pre-ordered it at Best Buy. Will I be able to get it through BB?
Thank you for helping me.

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
I just did this yesterday. Bought the Nexus S and I'll swap it for the 3D on the 24th. I didn't preorder it yet. But I did tell the guy helping me exactly what I was gonna do. I did option A. Swapped from Verizon and the original Droid. The $125 is gonna pay for the majority of my ETF!
Where did you do it at? Sprint or Best Buy?

If I do this number porting, will I have to pay the tmobile early termination fee? I have a year left.

yes, why wouldn't you?
I picked up an EVO 4G at best buy to tide me over until I get the 3D. I got the port credit and the 300 bonus minutes. Also, since I am a silver premier member at best buy I don't have to pay the re-stocking fee when I switch phones. I also got a mailer saying that Sprint is offering a $50 visa gift card for new acts. AAAND when I went to best buy they were doing some promo on double points for new smartphone acts. I think I did pretty well

I'm pretty sure that BestBuy can't give you the $125 credit. I went into the Sprint store last week and they said that the $125 credit is to combat with the deals that Bestbuy and other stores put out there.
Sounded like you could only get the credit directly from Sprint. I could be wrong though.

I have an evo4g on a 129.00 plan the Rep at sprint told me since i have the evo i couldn't get the 69.00 plan i thought it was BS anyone hear of this

Corrections and things to consider:
-the Everything Data 450 plan + 300 bonus minute plan expires 7/23, not 6/23.
-Smartphone credit is $125, dumbphone credit is only $50. So if you activate a dumbphone on or before 6/23 and then switch to a smartphone after 6/23, you may only get $50.
-I called Sprint last week and was told that a new phone activation is required to get either credit, meaning I couldn't activate my extra previously activated Hero on or before 6/23, then buy the Evo 3d and still get the credit.
-For new customers and customers adding new lines of service, the $35 restocking fee is waived. All others may get charged the fee.
-I haven't explored this further since I don't plan on doing it but existing Premier customers adding new lines may be able to order the Evo 3d on 6/21, and with overnight shipping, be able to activate it on or before 6/23 to get the $125.
I'm porting a line to my account so I've tried researching every scenario to the best of my ability, or lack thereof

I found on this site that when you pre-order the HTC Evo 3D you get 15%-23% off your monthly Sprint bill, $50 service credit and a $35 rebate. Here's the link to the site if you're interested. I know I've been looking forward to the Evo 3D!

Are you able to add a line to your account and put the EVO3D on that new line, then do a swap of numbers b/w your original EVO4G and new EVO3D so you then have the new phone # on your EVO4G and the original phone number on your EVO3D? Then once done you can cancel the line you just added?
Back with nextel this was common practice by those that upgraded often and was easily done b/c all you had to do was swap the SIM cards back then.
Yep everything but the cancel part

i second that i wanna know before i get spammed up the ass
IDK if OP is from androidforums or not, but we had a discussion about this:
HTC EVO 3D Discounts
And pretty much all of us decided against inputting our SSN into a studentrate.com site. IDK how this site can offer this deal when no one else can.
Here is what I am planning on doing to get the EVO 3D. First off, I will pay the ETF (which should be about $100, then I will sign a new contract with Sprint and get the EVO 3D at the discount price. Then I will sell my HTC EVO 4G and offset the price. I spoke with Sprint and the rep said that this is just about the only way to get the phone at the discount price without upgrading my contract.
This site seems a bit sketch...
I got this same deal in the past when I got my HTC Evo. The form didn't ask for any social or credit card info. When I filled it out someone called me so I could place the order with them over the phone

If you do that, Sprint might not take you back immediately. I've heard that if you cancel with them they might make you wait a few months before you're approved for a new account. The other thing is that you could end up hurting your credit. I'm not exactly sure. If you were a sprint Premier member, you might be able to get grandfathered in for your 1 premier upgrade this year, because that's what they did for me.

How??? I called in twice and was told no both times...
If you pre-order one of these phones you're guaranteed the discounts mentioned? Anyone know when the nexus s is suppose to be released?
I have the kinda the same question. Do you only get the discounts if you pre-order? What if I want to just wait till the Evo 3D comes out?
I think the Nexus S is suppose to come out early spring, so maybe this month?
I think you might still be able to get that discount even if you wait until the device comes out... However, considering the shortage of EVOs online due to some of the components being manufactured in Japan, there is a risk that the EVO 3 D will run out and be back-ordered at least that's what I think
Do you think the Evo 3D release date will be pushed back because of this?

It can't be pushed back if it was never announced
for what it's worth. Student Rate is legit. Basically, there's a guy that works there who holds all your info till launch day, and then bulk processes all the pre-orders witha dedicated sprint rep over night.
When I switched to sprint from ATT, my wife and I preordered our Epic4G's that way. I didnt put my CC info or SSN on the student rate form, but I was in constant contact with the guys there over email, and the night before launch day, I gave them the info over the phone.
hey guys. my Evo died about two weeks ago. i will tell you they have been two very hard weeks.
i've decided rather than buy another Evo, that i'll suffer with a POS samsung phone from the dark ages and wait for an Evo 3D.
I have a few questions for you guys:
I'm not a Sprint customer nor have I ever been. what's the process to get a Sprint account? if you have mediocre/bad credit, can you still open a new account? Is there a fee you pay in that case? or do they outright deny you an account? if you pay a fee, how much? if i want two phone lines in that account, twice the fee?
regarding the phone, the $199 is an upgrade price? does that mean if i come on to Sprint now that's not the price I get for the phone?
provided all the above goes well and I can open an account AND get two Evo 3Ds...what's the best price I can expect on the unlimited data plans? based on the Sprint website it's $(70 + 10) x 2 = $160? how much are the "taxes, fees, and surcharges" that they convieniently don't include in that price? is there a student plant/discount?
seems expensive! i'm paying $90 for two lines on MetroPCS right now with everything except slow data speeds...
thank you for your answers guys. I really want the Evo 3D, and having crippled the Evo 4G on MetroPCS for nearly a year, I'm really hoping I can let the Evo 3D work like it's meant to!

You could pay anywhere between 0-400 of 500 dollers for a deposit and yes if you came is get the EVO 3d for 199$ also your bill would be like 160 with insurance I know that seems like a lot a month bot compaired to vzw tmo or ATT its cheap for smart phones
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
My guess is most u will prolly pay is 200 for a deposit unless ur credit is really bad
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
As far as bad credit it is a case by case scenario. usually if you have bad credit they put a spending cap on you. So getting 2 3d's might be hard if they do that. If your credit is bad enough they might deny you BUT i have never heard of this happening. The upgrade price is also the new line price so the phone will be $199 with new activation.
As far as a plan i recommend the 129.99 family plan. with the 10 dollar add on for both 3d's it is only $150. Discounts are available but you will have to check with your school / employer for the percentage off they get you. I know if you have a credit union account you can get %10. But like i said you have to check.
Hope this helps.
My credit is pretty bad and I didn't have to pay any thing down. I do have a spending cap of $150, but since it's only me and my bill has been $86, I have no reason to worry about it. I di have to pay the $35 activation fee on my 1st bill.
Fees for me have been about $16 total on the 69.99 plan. I plan on paying about $100 a month when I get the E3D.
The only reason keeping me from switching my phone over to Metro is the really slow data connection. I was playing on a phone on Metro and the data speed was about 1/3 of what I am getting on 3G
If you want to tether off your phone, which I do when I'm not at home, Sprint has unlimited data. This by far keeps me on Sprint more than anything else. No other carrier offers "truly unlimited data".
Don't forget there is a $125.00 credit if you are coming over from another carrier. It is supposed to expire the day before the Evo3d is released but I have read about people that asked Sprint to extend it for them and they did.
Look into that. Im not sure if it's $125 per phone number or per account. Worth calling about.
Edit, here it is:
http://www.sprint.com/landings/portcredit/?ECID=vanity:switchtosprint
Again, it expires 6/23, but call and ask them about it and they more than likely will allow you the credit. It is only one more day.
working at sprint I never saw a deposit over $150
Sprint is extremely Lax on there credit unless they have changed.
unless you have terrible credit you'll most likely need no deposit.
new line/fully eligible upgrade prices are the same
so if its 199 after rebates you pay 199, and a 36$ activation fee that gets put on your first bill.
take a look at trading in your old device and talk to them about the carrier transfer credit.
This was my scenario as well. I don't have the best credit, in fact it's pretty damn ****ty. Today I was approved for 5 lines, no deposit, and no spending limit. And that's just me, no co-signers or anything. I was even given an account number so when I go back on the 24th, I won't have to do the process over. So OP, I'd say you're in good shape.
I started this thread a while back, you might be able to get one of these discounts
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1006791
thanks for the information and definitely thanks for the info on the student discount. both my wife and I qualify (she's a grad student, i'm a law student) and that 23% off brings the price down a lot, much closer to what i'm paying now
I work for Sprint, if you have a mediocre credit score you'll probably pay $50 for deposit then if you have a bad credit score you might pay $100 and it's for each line. You'll get the same discount on phones as what others are getting and you will get a balance limit probably $150 to $200. If you port in to Sprint from a different carrier you will get $125 credit and it is for each line. But you will get it probably after 3 or 4 months after your activation and it will automatically apply on your bill. This promo is up until june 26 only.
The family plan is the way to go. If you want to order online you could do the EPRP plan for $109.99 for 1600 minutes shared and $10 extra per line for smartphones coming out to $129.99. I know the 23% student credits that were mentioned don't discount the $10 fee or any additional lines. On the EPRP family plan the 3rd line and up is $15 vs $20.
I'm currently with t-mobile and am planning to switch to sprint, and I want to get the $125 they offer for switching:
www.sprint.com/landings/portcredit/?ECID=vanity:switchtosprint-
(sorry, I can't post links yet).
What I'm trying to figure out is if buying the evo 3d at amazon for $180 will make me ineligible. (See the fine-print at the bottom of the sort-of linked page).
The offer is a simple
Just bring your number from another carrier to Sprint and activate a smartphone, like the Samsung Epic 4G, on a new line between 5/4/2011 and 7/23/2011 and we'll give you a $125 service credit.

But the text that concerns me is
This offer is only available online, via telesales, and in participating Sprint Stores. Purchases from other retailers are not eligible for this credit. Requires port in from an active wireless line and mobile number that comes through the port process to a new line on an eligible Sprint service plan.

Two reasons I was planning to buy at amazon:
$20 less than the sprint price
they're offering an "activation-fee credit" of $36 (I didn't go all the way through the ordering process at sprint, but I assume they would be charging me $36 to activate as a new customer)
Any tips on what's the best way to sign up without missing any deals? As near as I can tell, signing up through wirefly was going to result in me being charged the $36 activation fee too (and no idea if they'd try to deny my $125 for switching to sprint).
$125 > $36+ $20 + tax
So go with Sprint.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
they only give you that deal if you port your number over from tmobile, and sometimes they can wave the activation fee, if you sign up right then
I switched over from T-horrible and doing it a Sprint store is better. When they port your number you lose your T-mobile services so if you have your 3D shipped through amazon you won't have a phone until it arrives at your house. Do it at the Sprint store and if you have to get on the waiting list you will be okay. Just do like I did and get a EVO 4G for $150 plus buy the gift card to get on the waiting list for the next shipment to come in. Use the 30 day satisfaction deal and when your phone comes in trade it out for your 3D. With the gift card you have already paid for the price of the phone. Also baby your Evo 4G any scratches or scrapes and they may not take it back.

Or you can sell your EVO on Craigslist for 250-325. That would also work and save you a credit

And while you're there, tell them if you are a AAA member or you are a member of a credit union. If so, that's 10% off your monthly bill.
Have a friend still using an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4? Tell them to dump it and go with Sprint. They'll get about $135 for their old iPhone 3GS (more for the iPhone 4) and $125 for porting their old AT&T number over to Sprint so Sprint will actually pay THEM to own an Evo 3D.
They've also been giving Sprint Premier Silver members the full upgrade price even though you've only had your Evo 4G for a year. Sprint is running so many great deals right now, most people should be able to get an Evo 3D for just about free if not better.

This. I think I got like $240 shipped for mine on Craigslist.
Selling off my 3 Epics, so I got mine for free. BAHAHA. Trading in a phone is just a rip off program. You think it's a good deal, but you just don't know any better.
I don't know why Sprint is giving me such a hard time. I'm one year into my contract and have tried and tried. They want me to pay the full retail price. IMO it's not worth the retail price esp when I have an EVO. It's not worth all the hassle. I don't know what else to do. Hell I will sign a 3 year contract if they would cut me a little slack. I hope someone from Sprint sees this and contacts me.
I'm switching from T-Mobile and was originally going to go with Verizon for the iphone but I found this deal for the EVO 3D with Sprint and it sounds more up my alley price wise. I live in downtown Boston so I think both carriers have decent service there. Do you guys think I should go with this Sprint deal? What do you think of the EVO 3D vs iphone?
Here's the deal I got in my email from Studentrate....
We are pleased to offer great discounts on HTC EVO 3D to qualified StudentRate.com members.

hell yeah comes to mind
I actually got my 3D this way. They send you through Amazon Wireless and then after confirming your order number, billing address and account number with Studentrate they take care of the rest. I actually spoke to them today and confirmed all the info so they said I should see my discount in 1-2 billing cycles. We will see...
I say yes cuz the $20 will cover part of your tax (if any) and then the discounts on monthly bills, trust me it helps. I have corporate discount of 25% monthly bill and with 2 lines of evo, it saves quite a bit.
Well if you're looking to save money a 15%-23% discount off a monthly bill would definitely help you out. Plus I think Sprint already has a pretty low cost plans compared to Verizon. I think you should go for it, maybe I will too haha.
The 3DVO is a beast, the I(wanna-be-a)Phone is a chump... I have a simple mantra, if it starts with i, do not buy.

It sounds like a good deal and would say go for it, but what is studentrate? You go through them to get the discounts?
I think it's a discount site for college students but they have a bunch of like wireless stuff
Will this discount apply to any Sprint plan?
I think it applys on the Everything Data plans. I saw this posted on their forum
I just ordered the EVO 3D through your deal OP and it was only $144.99 on Amazon Wireless. I'm not sure how long it'll be at that price but if you're still on the fence I'd try to get it now while it's on sale.
Is there any way to just apply for the discount itself? I just bought a Evo 3D but through Sprint.
I went from tmo to sprint and love it! They give you $125 per smart phone line to switch and I got my evo 3d for $149 and an evo 4g for $24.99 with free shipping free activation free everything accept tax! Go for it!

I don't think so. You have to be buying a new phone, upgrading, or adding a line.
EVO 3D looks like an awesome phone, but right now I'm with Verizon. My contract is ending soon so I could switch over. You get a $125 if you come over from another carrier? 15-23% off my bill would be a major help too. I wish there was some way to test out the EVO 3D for like a week to see if I even like it.

I'm switching from T-Mobile and was originally going to go with Verizon for the iphone but I found this deal for the EVO 3D with Sprint and it sounds more up my alley price wise. I live in downtown Boston so I think both carriers have decent service there. Do you guys think I should go with this Sprint deal? What do you think of the EVO 3D vs iphone?
Here's the deal I got in my email from Studentrate....
We are pleased to offer great discounts on HTC EVO 3D to qualified StudentRate.com members.

Isn't sero already discounted?
I think I'm going to go with the EVO 3D, but now do I want to use that deal I posted to get it through Amazon, paying only $144.99 and getting a 23% discount off my monthly bill, or I guess I can use this Sprint Deal, the phone would be $199.99 but I could get the $125 port credit and still get the 23% discount. I'm torn because do I want to pay less now, or get a refund later? I guess the port credit expires tomorrow too.
oh man, looks like I missed the port credit. Guess my best bet now would be to go through the amazon deal. Do you know if there is an expiration date?

I didn't buy mine through that site but I did chat with Sprint online and they gave me a 23% student discount just by giving them my school name and student ID. I should be seeing that reflected on my next bill.
