Hi!

We’ve been with Nextel for several years now. I just re-registered on the "My Nextel" website in order to have access to new functionalities offered on the new "My Sprint" site. Well……I THOUGHT there would be new functionalities. :confused:I was under the impression that I would be able, not only to view my bill online, but to manipulate it - that is, to arrange it by phone number or by number of minutes per call, etc. Also hoped that more info on current use would be available.
Our main phone has been "misplaced" for 2 days and it would sure be nice to access online the phone numbers that have called, or even the text messages that have arrived in the past couple of days. The battery is without doubt dead and so Mobile Locator can’t give us any help. Don’t want to go and buy another phone until we’re sure this one won’t turn up.
Am I overlooking any of this on the website? Is it available and I just don’t know how to find it?
Thanks!!!

Does anyone know when the promo code 50BACK expires?

Thanks!

I am up for my 2 year renewal contract and phone and want to save some $$ on a new phone. Any ideas on promo codes that work with this?
Thanks!

Well, here is the situation…

I am still on my Samsung a680 phone that I have had for > 4years, and went into the store to switch to the m520. However, the in-store tech was unable to switch due to my plan having a credited Vision rather than Power Vision.

I signed a new contract January 2007 when Sprint was offering SERO to everyone, and even though the person I talked to was unable to get me into SERO, gave me a similar priced plan.

FF 450 - $40
500 SMS - Free
Nights/Wkends 7pm - FREE
Unlimited Vision - $5
Picture Mail - FREE
25% employer discount

Its not a great plan (compared to some of ya’lls), but its good for me (I don’t ever get close to my minute or sms limits). When agreeing to this contract, I made sure and asked about issues when upgrading my phone from Vision to Power Vision, and he said no problem, it will be the same $5 due to SERO that he was matching has Vision/Power Vision for the same.

Here is the problem - now that I am trying to switch phones (finally), they are not sticking with the Vision/Power Vision switched I had agreed to, and are wanting to charge me for standard Power Vision services. So.. any advice or tips ya’ll care to share about how best to upgrade my phone?

I also looked at the new $69.99 450min Everything plans, and if I could get it down to $40 or so after discounts, I would possibly go that route.

A word of caution. I had a technical problem with txt msgs not going to or from my phone several days ago. I had the free/included txt messaging code on my acct.. I called tech support to get it fixed. They explain the usual procedure is to unprovision and reprovision the service.. so he takes the txt msging off the acct… then goes to add it again… System says invalid code and he cant put it back on. Goes to supervisor.. Supervisor says.. code gone we cant add it again.. so they stick a different txt msg code on my acct. which did not fix the problem and start a tkt on my issue. I notice that the new code has a $15 price tag and call back into tech support to explain. They put me on hold for 20 mins and come back to the line and say we have put a $15 reccuring credit on the line and she cautions me that if anyone removes the feature, the $15 credit will go away. Now, Support starts to work the tkt, calls, and asks permission to reprovision my data to correct the problem and further advises that it will wipe out any email or data I have stored on sprints system. I call in give permission. 1 day later they reprovision my acct and txt is now confirmed working and my voice mail has to be set up again. I call back to make sure that the $15 feature AND the $15 monthly credit is still in tact. Guess what.. thats right.. what $15 credit.. its gone. So now I call into retentions and ask that since code is now gone can they reapply the credit again. On hold for 15 mins.. (thats never a good sign with retentions) They come back to the line and say: Code is gone we cant add it any more.. I then asked about the $15 credit and she advises they can’t do that either. She then says, "I gave it to my supervisor who has to go to a manager and above now to try and put this back on your acct." She then says: "I’m not sure if we even can but I see where it was removed by tech support and we will call you back on Wed. or so and let you know the outcome of the escalation."

I’m betting on no call back or if they do, the rest of my features will be toast.

So it appears that, if you have some of those nice no charge included codes that have expired, and there is a problem on your acct., you might want to make sure that the rep does not blow the code out and try to re add it as it might be gone for good and take an act of the sprint congress to get it back on the system.

i was curious, is there a way to block text messaging all together on your phone? i know you can block individual numbers, is there a way to block it all together?
