Their individiual plans family and shared plans are outrageous. I incurred a hudge bill when I added a phone line this year! I was unaware of the fees they stuck me with for adding a 2nd line to my account. yeah they claimed I was elegible for a free phone if I added another line. they charged me for two separate lines and also charged me for adding the second line. They refused to work a payment with me. after reasureing me they would allow me to make payments over time as I was un able to pay the bill all at once. They do not hounor there customers when they should. I will not re up my contract with them. I do recomend them either. They've gotten much more from me than I have from them. I'm disscusted at their lack of integrity and greed . to a customer who faithfully pays their bills on time every month, and to be told by a very rude customer representitive they could not vouch for the rest of their staff members who dealt with me prior to them. I was mortified.Then they caulousley.told me I could terminate my service if I was dissatisfied with their terms they now had imposed on me. So had no choice. They didn't work with me to make payments on a reasonable schedual as was told to me when I first received the hudge bill. I payed as much as I could. then they sent me a following bill on top of what I allready owed. it really put a hardship on me for allmost 2 months. because they decieved me from the time I added the 2nd line to my account. And treated me like I was the bad guy when it came time for them to stand by their word. It was as though I had no credibility with them ever after they mislead me into that '' great deal they gave me'' What a joke ! unfortunately the joke was on me.

I just got a new (very expensive) phone, and was told by India last night that I can't call to get it activated until Sunday. I'm very disappointed by Sprint, where otherwise I've positive experiences. It’s a real problem.

I love checking the Sprint site. Love it. Does my life revolve around it? Sure. Absolutely. I'd just ask that you put yourself in my shoes. If you couldn't tell someone to relax about something for two whole days you'd probably be just as devastated as I am. I'd type a smiley or a winky smiley here but I'm too sad right now.

I went through the process to reset my password only to find that after successfully completing, the site kept sending me back to reset my password. After three times, I finally called customer service. Customer service took my bill payment but couldn't reset my password -- had to transfer to the accounts dept (??) meanwhile the reception was breaking up and the CSR asked me to consider calling back..I responded, "sorry, i'm calling in on YOUR network". Finally transferred me to accounts...call dropped. I've been with Sprint for nearly 9 years...my contract expires in 6 months. I have no intention to renew. The network is usually very good...but the handset selection is horrible, the web site is extremely error-ridden, and the customer service reps never to seem very knowledgeable or helpful in resolving issues. I'm taking my business to Helio. Ironic…I just tried to log in 2 days ago to pay my bill and my credentials no longer worked.

They "migrate" between 1 and 2 million cutomers at a time and their accounts are typically "down" for a couple of days. Just another quality "over" story.
