Third Party Employee Plan

No, you should not have this plan. The plan is designed for 3rd party employees that are actively selling Sprint at their locations.

I also have an old employee plan, $25/month 1000 anytime, free nights 7pm + weekends, free web, 100 text along w/ a few other things. I figured it is worth keeping that plan so i just buy a phone off ebay or at full price and change the esn on my account if I want a new phone.

I was wondering b/c I am currently an indirect dealer of Nextel and according to my rep we will also carry sprint. How do we get these deals and what are the plans? Sorry if it's drown out but I was curious.
