So Nationwide Doesnt mean New Jersey

Once again my Bill was wrong again for the 3rd month>

Today i was told since i have the Blackberry with a Fair and Flex Plan i dont get Local DC mins...But i pay for 10.00 extra for NationWide Unltd DC mins...But it doesnt include Local Area..So I askd NationWide doesnt mean NJ (since this is where i live)...

So I can go to CA,FL,WA,GA,TX and not get charge for my DC mins. But when I am in NJ(this where i live) I get charged because my plan doesnt have Local DC min..But i pay for NationWide Unltd DC mins

and the customer Serv tells me yes this is correct..

So i say what does NationWide mean. everywhere but the current state u live in to SprinTel..If so

They have a long way to go...

Can some one help please... 🀭 πŸ˜•

Selling my i730- question

Hello! I am switching to a different provider and want to sell my i730. Can I go ahead and put it on eBay to sell it, or will the phone be locked to my account until I get and pay my final invoice? I know that the phone uses a SIM, but I know that on Sprint you cannot activate a phon eon an account that has not been paid. Thank you for any insight! πŸ™‚

Updates with the Sprint/Nextel merger

NETWORK
The coverage and capacity has always been their focus, so as such they are spending $5 billion in capex per year through 2008, while $3.8 billion of the $5B, will go to improve the network and capacity in the top markets as well as for EV-DO. Sprint will add 5,000 cell sites per year nationwide but it would increase towards the 2008 timeframe.

Distribution

90 percent of Sprint/Nextel stores are selling both products.

Handsets

Launching 5 new ev-do handsets including the Samsung Blade, which will rival the Motorola RaZR.

Latest Deals

They will offer the quadruple play with the cable companies in mid 2006, and this allows the cable companies to have usage of sprint’s massive 2.5 GHz holdings.

Account Questions (PLEASE HELP)

Last week I switched my Sprint account to Nextel. I still owe Sprint money for the last billing cycle, that is usually around the 7th of every month. Do I pay Nextel what I owe to Sprint?

Also, I just looked over MyNextel and found that Nextel has MMS compatibility with the other 3 major carriers. I tried to send a pic to a Moto RAZR from Cingular but my friend did not receive it. Any reason why? I have an i850 with the Data Access Pack if that helps. Thanks in advance for any help.

Text messaging

I keep receiving text messages from people outside of the nextel network (cingular, verizon, etc.). I never have any idea who they are from though because the phone (i730) doesn't tell me. If I receive a text message from another nextel user I at least get their phone number so I can figure out who it is.

Is there a way around this with the i730? Do the newer phones have this problem? I'm considering the i560, i850, and i870.

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! πŸ™‚

What is up with the port protection game?

So I just got off the phone with the NPAC to get a number finally released from Nextel. One week they want a passcode to release numbers, this week they say the pw must be removed to port.

What gives? Why the game? I understand if you have a 50 line account owned by a company they want to keep Joe Schmoe from taking his number when he quits but some single line account? In a personal name nonetheless.

I say the same thing to everyone who asks about how to port OUT of Cingular. Keep your account active until you port and you will be fine (and we hope you decide to come back one day) and that is it. Nextel makes you jump through hoops on the way out and it leaves a pretty bad taste.
