Termination Fee

Sorry if this has been answered a million times, but I need some clarification. I am currently a Nextel customer that came on before the merger. I live in Columbia, SC and want to switch to Sprint(PCS?). I called the customer service # at both companies and received conflicting answers regarding termination of my contract. One person at both said No problem, no fee,no activation, just pick out the phone you want and come (or go) over. Another person said I lived in a Sprint Affiliate market that operated much like Nextel Partners did, so I would in turn have to pay a fee.

I know you guys can give me some guidance. What's the deal? Who is right? Thanks! 🙂

If you are in a "Nextel" market and want to switch to "Sprint" there is no cancellation fee. If you are in an affiliate market there will be a fee since not all affiliates have been purchased yet.

as i mentioned on the other board.. its simple..

1. if you are in an affiliate area you pay the fees.

2. if you are in a legacy area you dont pay any fees.


so pick one of the two categories you fall in and there ya go..
