Sprint's SERO plans are special referral-offers meant to be given to Sprint employees only. These plans are offered to customers who are "friends and family" of Sprint employees. SERO stands for the Sprint Employee Referral Offer. The base SERO plan is a $30/month plan offering 500 Fair & Flexible minutes with unlimited data.
However, Sprint has leaked out through unofficial channels a new manner to sign up for SERO, opening up access to the general public.

I am not promoting them but they do have more of a national footprint then Verizon. And have the most roaming partners of any carrier. So please don't make a statement you can't use them outside of a city. Because if verizon did not have roaming (sorry extended network) they would not be in about 9 states. I am in the military and travel all over. Never had a problem!
...
I'm overstating things, but they do *not* have more of a national footprint than Verizon. That's just crazy talk. You're right that there are places where Verizon doesn't work on its own network (BTW, 1 state is not "about 9" - VZW doesn't have a lot of coverage in some of the Southern states and Oklahoma, but it does actually have it in a few cities out there), but there are a lot more places with T-Mobile.
Don't get me wrong, T-Mobile is a good company, but every company has its niche. T-Mobile's the place to go for great customer service and very low prices. Verizon's the place to go when you want your phone to work.

ok please please look at a map. Alabama, LA, MI, Ok, to name a few were there service is non existant. Go to sprint and go to their service map and compare it with verizon network only. You will be surprised!!!
...
What he means by that is that Verizon doesn't own very many towers in those states. But since there are CDMA towers in those states, Verizon phones can roam on those towers. And seeing as how Verizon doesn't charge for roaming, it seems like you are both right 😎
...
I do think it looks a little desperate to. But if it works hey! The military is to but they serve their purpose. Guess you have to do what you have to do!
...
I think i remember these plans...but they were from AT&T Wireless before the buyout...
giving away the house isn't the answer to increasing profits.

Sure it might be a little desperate that doesn't take away from it being a great deal.
1250 min and unlimited data for 50 bucks 😲
verizon charges 45 bucks for just data alone and its not even unlimited

Yeah well I have a job, I can't sit around and play internet on my phone all day. If work needs me to have a phone then they can pay for it.
...
I wonder how long this will stay available I have two verizon lines that I would love to port
...
i would hold off about a week or so it may go down to 30 bucks for the same package depending on how desperate they get in the final weeks.
...
This is all fine and dandy until you need to upgrade your phone and they bang you for another activation fee besides the ones you pay when you port..
And also, VZW UNLIMITED DATA is $45 and for sure is unlimited...
Check your fact before spouting off..
TROLL!!!
And also, VZW UNLIMITED DATA is $45 and for sure is unlimited...
Check your fact before spouting off..
TROLL!!!
...
*sigh* No, it's not technically unlimited. VZW has a 5GB cap. If you go beyond that, your service gets terminated. While every company's T&C state that excessive use is not permitted, VZW is the only one who puts a cap in writing. 😕
...
there is actually a very good reason for that. and i havent read anywhere that when you hit 5 gigs you are termed i dont think thats correct. i hear they will for sure look into the high usage though. i use more than 5 per month and i havent been termed so it cant be cut and dry like that.
...
Hmm..I'll be honest. You're the first person that I've heard of that hasn't been termed for going over. How does VZW look into it? I know what you're using it for isn't monitored. Just the amount of data flow. What about when you get past 5GB? Can they track what websites you've been using? Or music downloads? Streaming video?
...
i dont think they can track anything but maybe i have been lucky. i never took the 5 gig thing that seriously but i have seen people termed but they activated again? i dont know its a weird situation that i dont know how they can monitor all that well.

The TOS states 5 GB but it has been reported in several forums the actual termination limit is 10 gigs and it is a hard limit, go over and your are terminated.
...
Plus you can't download third party apps with verizon, or streaming video, etc etc
With Sprints true unlimited unrestricted data you can!

This is true. But that doesn't mean that you'll never violate the T&C. As it states, if you use it excessively, they have the right to terminate service. Same goes for Cingular and T-Mobile. Third party apps aside, VZW posts what the cap is while the other carriers don't.

There is no activation fee when porting 🙄
verizon restricted data is not unlimited 🙄

And explain to me how $45 for restricted "unlimited" data is better than free unrestricted unlimited data with a larger and faster broadband network! 🙄
I think You need to check your facts.
...
Thanks new2tmobile!!! I ported and so happy to be getting away from verizon and all their stupidness.
Thanks for the tip!!
anyone want a waterproof brick 🙄

what happened here? I wrote I (insert heart symbol with the "Is less than sign" with a 3 next to it) SPRINT! I guess it thought it was some sort of unsupported HTML code. 🙄

You sure New_2_T-Mobile? all i see is just inlimited data and picture mail, nothing about which power vision your getting.

Alright, so does anyone here live in NY that can sign me up with probably 2 of these plans? Can you get N&W at 7 PM? How much for more minutes?
Seriously, If you can, e-mail/PM me cause my girl, and I would probably sign up. It's either this, or t-mobile with their myFavs.

You don't need anyone to do it for you just go to www.sprint.com/sero and enter savings@sprint.
7 pm night are included, and so is POWERVISON 😳
You can also print it out and take it directly to the Sprint store!!
Go to the site and read up on the plans there great!

Alright, stupid question. Could I go to an indirect Sprint location and sign up? Please let me know ASAP!!!
On that note, indirect located in Suffolk county Long Island who can get me a good price on a Sprint phone? 😁 I would like to do a 1 year tho....

Ok, I tried sigining in to look at these plans, but when I put in savings@sprint and then my zip code I get an error message stating: Missing '.' in e-mail address and then I can't move past that. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas? Thanks.

you should totally go with Sprint's SERO! T-mobile is not nearly as good as this offer!
1. MyFaves Starts @ $40 per month 😛
2. T-Mobiles network is EDGE data which is soo slow, plus data coverage isnt even that good
3. T-mobiles coverage sucks. In fact, Sprint probably has the best Voice network, after roaming
4. Sprints data is included in this $30 offer and its truely unlimited
5. Sprint has the...

makes one wonder why the despiration. After all they have been losing more customer then they are gaining. Must be a reason for that too...
...
This isn't despiration. This offer has always been available, but only to friends/family of Sprint employees. They just made it public for a limited amount of time.
...
for getting more customers. because their numbers have really tanked. Tanked bad. How could a major national carrier end up with minus postpaid activations?!? WOW. So they are doing these things out of despiration. 2 quarters with negative net adds would look horrid. That would put their yearly into net loss on new customers. So they have to do something...
...
soldier_monkey said:
can you add the insurance on the plan when you receive the phone?
It gives you the option when signing up or you can call and add it afterward
...
This probably means a couple of things:
Sprint has a very bad net adds so far this quarter.
If many people jump on board it means more new lines of activation for Verizon in 2 years.
Time to sell any Sprint stock you have left... unless you hear the word merger, then buy buy buy!

I don't promote people leaving Verizon or anyone else, but NOW, does everyone finally see what I was talking about in my post on Verizon needing to lower their prices? They don't even have plans that will compete with Sprint's CURRENT plans, or anyone else's for that matter. It's time for VZW to wake up and smell the coffee. They're gonna get hammered on this one if they don't!
...
ya vzw is going to get hammered 🤣 like i said before there is lines out there to get on sprints service. if you need proof look at their numbers 🤣
