question about adding a line
my brother has a sprint plan and has room for 1 more phone to add on. He has a sprint pcs 2 year agreement until 2007 and is on a free and clear plan.
If i port my number to sprint, can i only get a 1 year agreement on my line? I dont want to be stuck for 2 years with the same phone.
Thanks

short answer yes.
but a 1 year agreement will not get you as much as a rebate. and once that year is up it does not matter. every customer gets the same upgrade plan weather you are on a 1 year or a 2 year agreement. if you are a sprint customer after haveing a handset for 1 year you are eligable for a 50% instant rebate and on selct models you get a 50% mail in rebate. if you have had your...

i dont mind paying a little more on a phone. I just dont want to be locked in for 2 years. So even though all his lines are 2 years, i can sign up my line for only a 1 year?
...
yes. each line has its own contract. however you will have 9pm night and weekends because you are only wanting to do a 1 year
...
i dont mind 9pm. I think theirs is 9 anyways or maybe not. Hes had the same plan since 1998.

same plan since 1998???? if he changes his plan he could mostlikely save a but load!
...
he pays 75.00 for 2000 minutes, 3 of his lines are free..he pays 10.00 for the 4th line only. So hes got a deal.
...
he probubly has 9pm night and weekends for 10$ and 500 pcs to pcs. or he may have gor the unlimited pcs to pcs for free.

I'm pretty sure that isn't true, all of the secondary lines in a family share have to have the same length of contract as the primary line I believe. Therefore, if you opened up a new line on a family share you'd have to extend the contract of all lines. Of course the upgrade dates wouldn't change for any of the lines, just the service contract.

you are wrong. each line has its own contract. one could be one year and one could be 2 year. i see them all the time as well as i used to activate them all the time
...
you can always do a 2yr and switch to a month to month anytime if you wanna cancel

let me put this in plain english. if oyu are under contract you cannot go month to month.
come one sprint reps back me up on this one
...
you can't go out of contract without paying an etf. what's the point of signing a contract if sprint will let a customer switch month to month and then cancel after a month...how do i know, i've worked for sprint for quite some time now.
...
because you are not signing a contract. Its an agreement. you can change your agreement to any other available agreement at anytime. Not speaking from speculation like many people here do, rather experience. Thats like saying since you are currently on a 2yr agreement you cant take advantage of any new offeres until the agreement exprires. If you work for sprint then you know there isnt nothing written anywhere thats says you cant go to a month to month while under a 1yr or 2yr agreement. In fact the agreement clear states you must maintain service for the minimum term. Terms are 0yrs(month to month), 1yr and 2yr. Only time you are charged a ETF is when you terminate service or when Sprintpcs terminates your service as per your agreement
...
if you would actually read it it says that if service is canceled before the agreed time (eather 1 year or 2 years) then there is an early termination fee of 150$.
if you are under an agreement you can not switch to month to month! if they were to switch to a month to month they can cancel the next month and not pay the etf!!!! think about it.
ps what is your ad log in? i want it so i can report you to corperate security and they can fire you for fraud!

thats my point as long as you maintain service, which u are doing on a month to month, you are not terminating service, as the agreement actually reads
if you are under an agreement you can not switch to month to month! if they were to switch to a month to month they can cancel the next month and not pay the etf!!!! think about it.
when they switch you to month to month, the system aumotically waives the etf, the same way it does when you go from a 1yr to a 2yr, or a 2yr to a 2yr.
...
Lame, did he give you his ad log in? I don't see why he wouldn't, sounds like a great idea you have there for him 🙄 .
...
i was a sprint rep, and a store manager, there is nothing thats says u cant go to a month to month while you are in an agreement. See thats the difference with between agreements and contracts. Sprint doesnt make you sign anything.
...
An agreement is a contract. If I say, "Hey George, will you paint my house for $10?" and George says, "Sure, I agree to do that!" Guess what, we have a contract and I can legally take him to court if he fails to perform it.
...
I don't think stevelvl knows what he is talking about. With a 1-year contract you can get a $75 instant rebate off of the full retail price (plus any applicable instant rebates on the phone) and after a one-year handset life on file you can get another $75 instant rebate, but that's it. If you sign a two-year contract you'll get a $150 instant rebate then after a year you can upgrade and recieve a $75 instant rebate. There are no percent discounts involved stevelvl.

actually you are the pne whop has no idea what you are talking about. the one year rebate is 100$
the 75$ instant rebate you refer to is a 50% of half the 2 year agreement. before you com ein hear telling people they are ...

actually, it is $75 instantly off of a new line and the 1 yr rebate as well and you also don't get any price overlays with a 1 yr. it used to be $100 before they changed the rebate program.

100%??? Does that mean after 2 years I get a completely, 100% free phone? I had a friend, who had a friend, that was told by a Sprint person she could get a free phone. So she goes to the store, signs up for the phone and stuff, and the person there says ok, that'll be $100 and here's your $100 rebate form. She blew a fuse because she said it was free. (I know, same thing, and I'm with Sprint on this, but, either way) Is this the kind of language that Sprint emp...
