[Q] SPRINT ETF if they terminate - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Are you liable to pay the ETF if Sprint cancels your line due to roaming? I read a post on the Epic 4G Touch forum where someone said 50% of the people he knows that tried the PRL change to get out of contract had to pay the ETF.
I don't see how you would be responsible if they're the ones cancelling your two year agreement.
Also, I have 4 lines on my plan but only 1 of them needs to get out of contract. Will the roaming get just that line terminated or the entire account?
Thanks

Not that I know of. I've never seen them make u pay the ETF in that situation.

If I have 4 lines on the account, do they terminate the single line or the entire account?
Thanks!

I've seen people in that situation where they just terminated the single line that was the problem. Now whether or not u could complain and say that you all have to go elsewhere because one got booted I don't know if they would help you or not.

Sprint should resolve this issue for you, would need to call their customer service line of course but by you signing an agreement with them staying that you would pay the termination fee also goes for them as well which states they wouldn't charge you the term fee if they were to break the contract. Also they would only cancel just your line since each number is actually on its own contact. Hope this helps

Early upgrade?

So my mom has just finished her 2 year contract and she doesn't want a new phone as they are to advance according to her. My contract will be over in a year. Can she buy the evo lte only costing 200 so that I activate it on my phone number? And if so will I only have to pay activation fee?

Yes u don't have to activate it at all as a matter of fact. U can take it for 200 dollars and sell it for 400 without changing any phones. All they care about is u signing for another two years on that line. They don't care what phone its for. I upgraded to the evo 4g with my wife's line which was the reason I was able to get the 3d on launch day on my line 6 months later.

You can do that but if she's not paying the $10 monthly premium data fee then she'll have to start paying it even if she doesn't keep the phone.

I'll have to disagree that you are only charged the smart phone data fee if you have a smart phone, so if you didn't have one prior they wont start charging just cause you got the phone but didn't port it into your line.

Upgrade to EVO 4G LTE by buying out contract

My sister wants to get this phone and she is still on the EVO 4G.
I told her she could just buy out her contract if she wants the full discount. It's only $50.00 (she's a few months out).
The Corporate Sprint store said she had to hand in her old EVO 4G to do the Buyout. She wants to keep it and sell it (she already got offered like $130.00 for it).
She called Sprint and she said she had to go to a Store to do it.
I thought you could just call up sprint, payoff contract and then buy and Sprint phone after full discount from any authorized dealer with a 2 year renewel.
And sell your old phone any old time you want.
I bought out of my contract no problem...they never asked for me to return anything back....besides that she paid for her of EVO with her money I would call again and speak to a diffrent service rep....

No point in calling again. That info is correct. Sprint modified the program. It is no longer being performed thru customer care. It is now being done in the stores and a buyback of the old device IS required. You were told correctly. Customer care can't offer this anymore. It must be done in the stores. This was done to reduce issues from the previous program.

Unless that changed in the last couple of months, its nonsense. Or unless my situation was different. I had three lines on my account and terminated two of them for $50 each over the phone and didn't have to give them a thing.

Couldn't a person just buy some piece of junk on craigs list, activate it on the line and give them that? (moment old blackberry etc) My kid has an epic touch with a crack in the screen that only can be seen with the screen off and they want to give him 40 bucks for it, i don't think so.

A couple of internal docs regarding the new buy-out program were posted on Inside Sprint Now, which of course doesn't exist any more. Yes, starting in the second half of June early buy-outs are only supposed to be done through corp stores and yes, you have to turn in the phone that Sprint gave you in the previous upgrade cycle. The fee depends on the age of the current phone. It is a new program though, so you might still be able to do it the old way by calling customer service and without trading in your current phone, just depends on CSR's knowledge and luck.
Wow, just another reason to leave Sprint I guess. I think that's pretty dumb, as you essentially loose the money you paid for the device. Unless the money you paid to get the device is somehow subtracted from the price you pay to buy out the contract.
yeah this is bs, why would i pay off the rest of the fone just to turn in the fone and buy a new contract.... if sprint keeps this, they are gonna use alot of business....
You people are ridiculous....
How about you wait until your contract is up then? Then you can upgrade and keep your phone. If u want to upgrade early this is how you have to do it. Otherwise don't do it. Simple. Yet another reason to leave sprint? Lol. That sounds silly. Please explain to me how other providers run their buyout programs.

I think it's ridiculous when folks say I can't do X because they are under contract.
ok so i guess we're pretending that they didn't just take away the premire upgrades. you should be able to buy out the rest of your contract and not have to turn in the phone too, thats not a good deal, say you pay 165 to end your contract and then have to turn in a 500+ plus phone just do get a new one, might as well just pay the etf and keep the phone, u could actually make more money to get a new phone this way.

Just depends on the phone you have.
This is one specific program.. there are others
The push with buyback of the current phone in this specific program is the increased need for phone recycling, which sprint currently leads in.
The crying over contract changes that happened 6 months ago or more is just silly. Premium customers received one last upgrade to be used by end of year.

Roaming within the US is free for you, but it isn't for them, and that's they key. They tolerate some roaming, but when you roam a lot, you aren't worth it to them as a customer anymore because you're costing them more than you're paying them.

I'm right there with you, man. I'm just hoping that between now and December of 2013 (when my VZW contract ends) Sprint can improve the strength of their network.
Why wouldn't you just ride out your contact or did they recently screw you over personally with something?
I'm going to milk unlimited as long as I can personally.

If you are unhappy and want out of a contract you agreed to, pay the ETF. It is the easiest and fastest method. Any other way is going to take more of your time and aggravation than what it is worth, pay the ETF and you are free to go where you want and you can be officially done.
What are the obvious reasons for leaving Verizon? It's a matter of time before unlimited data is cut from all carriers.

You signed a contract. You are legally obligated to to finish it out unless the contract is broken from the other side. If you are mad at Verizon for some reason like taking away unlimited, it is not a violation for them so you need to ride it out or pay the etf.

By roam do you guys mean "extended network"? I was in the middle of no where, basically, last week for court and my phone said extended network instead of Verizon. Was just wondering, that's what I assume anyway.
Also why don't you just pay the ETF? It's not like it's a thousand dollars. Do you have multiple lines or something?

I thought I remember hearing that depending how much time is left on contract the amount of the ETF may change. Eg: only have 2 months left (partial ETF) vs 1 year left (full ETF). Could be wrong, but worth checking into.

Verizon changes customer agrement

Was just curious if anyone could help me with this. I'm wanting out of my Verizon contract I have 6 months left and noticed the customer agreement was updated on June 13 2013. Could I use this as a way out of my contract. Without a early termination fee? Have read it's possible just wasn't a 100% sure.

Chances are it will affect future contracts and renewals. Probably won't be able to get out of your current one because of it.

Well sprint got into huge trouble about changing the etf about 1-2 years ago but that dealt with money. What was changed about it? And were you notified about the change
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
Not sure what changed, been reading it over and over and am trying to find my original receipt to compare them. I had the customer agreement bookmarked and was checking randomly to see if it changes, but it does state that I have 60 days from the change date to agree and if not their would be no penalties. Atleast that's how I understood it. Just thought maybe someone else had got out of a contract this way before and had some insite. Will probably just call them and work my way thru the chain if command and try.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
Without even reading it I'd say no. Verizon has been excellent at not changing anything that would allow people out of their contract.

Spent about 2 hours on the phone earlier, the change was in reference to the 24 month upgrade change so no go. Even talked to 3 different supervisors. Guess I'll just pay the etf . thanks for the replys.

Just taking a wild guess at this that AOL means assumption of liability. Any advantages to your contract. How many lines is it? By advantages I'm meaning like you got the double data or still have a grandfathered line. With only six months left I'm guessing your ETF is just a couple hundred bucks.
I don't know if you're going to be changing to a different carrier but if that's something you will be doing in the future, someone with some connections might be able to use the ETF as a negotiation tool to get you some special discounts.
Might just look into this aol thing. Btw, I have 2 line double data. One line ends march 2014 the other November 2014

A couple of friends of mine were discussing this a while back, I don't know what really came of it but it might be worth a shot. Find a really rural out in the middle of nowhere spot that has no chance of having coverage and tell Verizon that you are moving there and that you would appreciate them letting you out of your contract unless they can provide service to you out there. Like I said, I don't know if it works, they were just talking about it and it was suggested.
If the contact terms apply to your account, they are obligated to let you out of your contract if you disagree with the terms. This is because the contract you signed originally is not what your new contact would be. By not saying anything you agree to the changes and it continues. A contract by definition protects you. If you don't agree with a change you can get out of it. If the change is for new contracts then it won't effect you and thus you cannot use this to your advantage. Hopefully this helps. It is applicable in any contract agreement.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
The trick is to tell them you do not agree with the new contract terms, not that you want to cancel. If they ask if you want to cancel, you must say no, and reiterate that you are informing them that you do not agree with the new terms, also that you are recording the call for legal verification.
If you do not wish to cancel, but do not agree to the new terms, they can only allow you to continue under the old terms, which is illegal, or they can terminate your service. No ETF if they do it. Problem is that most reps you talk to will not be aware of the legal mechanics.

I do believe your current address on the account has to be changed to that new area before that even becomes a possibility due to the fact that when you send an inquiry like that, Verizon sends a team to check the towers and signal strength in your primary location. Therefore your primary location is that of your home and I believe work is encompassed in this as well. I spend a month dealing with Verizon and their towers and 4G LTE dropping from my old Razr. They sent out 3 tickets in the coarse of a month to check towers.Yet only changed my phone and refused to let me out of my contract since there was no issue with the towers or signal strength in my area.

You can opt for 3gb ($10) or unlimited ($20)
and with 7 people it would be $25+20=$45 base for your plan--not including taxes or extra services like insurance.
So for unlimited everything it would be 45$ plus taxes and fees?

Yup. once we reached 7 people, maximum savings would kick in.
It starts off as $55 for a single person, and each person added after that drops the bill for everyone by $5, until the maximum savings of $30 were met, bringing the total per person down to $25, which includes unlimited talk and text, with 1GB of included data. $10 would bring it up to 3GB and $20 unlimited. So, add any of those prices onto the base of $25 and you'll get your total bill before taxes.
The catch is that you get no subsidized phones and would either have to buy them at full retail, pay for a new phone with monthly installments (this option is available every 12/mo and only if you are on the $20 unlimited data add-on), or bring your own sprint device (ebay,swappa,whatever)

That's the beauty of it, it requires no getting out of contract. Everyone is billed separately and it's simply a Group ID that you ask Sprint to join you up with.
Nothing changes on your account except for your inclusion to the Group ID and switch over to the "Framily Plan" title. Other than that, everything else on your account remains the same, including any discounts you may receive (if i recall correctly). I get a 25% discount on my account so maybe it will apply to all lines if other discounts won't.
You can exit the Group ID (Framily Plan) at any time, and it is a no contract service. meaning it is more along the lines of "prepaid," since no contracts are used.
If you're currently in a contract, you will continue to ride out your contract while on Framily.
If anybody would like to join, my ID is "I00243971Et" case sensitive (the first character is a capital i). Sprint should explain in detail what will happen and give you the chance to agree or disagree. From what I was told when I activated my Group ID(Framily), it seems like a great incentive to get people to join and get some extra money off your bill per month.

Sprint seems to be more willing to work with people who have multiple lines or have been with them for some time. So, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to.
With 4 people you'd be paying only slightly less than you are now at $160 for all 4 lines, then your unlimited would be $20 more, then any extra add-ons. This is all assuming you were getting your own Group ID instead of joining another. I'm not sure what the the qualifying process is. But since your lines are all tied to one account, I don't see there being any problem with any of the lines.
I'll do it tonight

This is all assuming you were getting your own Group ID instead of joining another. I'm not sure what the the qualifying process is. But since your lines are all tied to one account, I don't see there being any problem with any of the lines.

So it almost seems like Sprint is trying to get completely away from low cost phones like all the other carriers have, even though Mr CEO once stated publicly that they would never do that. Eventually they will be like the others who offer "$0 down" (with an 800 credit score) phones.
