I would bitch up a storm if they shut me off without warning me first. Seems like ****ty business practice to terminate a paying customer without giving any notice.

They should OFFER you an airrave instead of having to whine until you get one, so that you continue to pay for their service. Sprint customer service has always pissed me off, both with their arrogance and disregard for customer satisfaction.

Dude, 1gb a month is decent data usage roaming or not. I used 2gb this last month because my home internet was out so I used a lot of tethering but usually hardly ever break 1gb and I'm on my phone obsessively. If they offered you an airwave but your roaming at work, and are able to pull 1gb a month "at" work, maybe you should put the phone away and concentrate on your job. Idk, but they are well within their rights. It's in the contract you signed.

If on their coverage map it says you have service at work and yet you roam, i'd call and bitch till they get someone to come and test the signal at your work and home.

If you are pushing more towards prepaid, I would take a look at this post. Has some pretty interesting information that you may find useful.

thanks for this link.. i've been debating for a long time if i couldn't get away with something like that. only issue i see is the ETF from sprint, and finding a decent GSM device with a keyboard! No more of this $90 a month crap especially with no more real premier gold benefits!

My service is really bad. Internet is so bad that I hardly use it. It can take me 20 minutes to get to something on Web pages. Tests with Verizon friends load CNN.com page in 4 to 10 seconds. Takes me about 30 seconds to 2 minutes! What good is unlimited data?

Wow, you necroed this for that? Obviously all carriers can't have great coverage everywhere. Sprint is spending billions to strengthen their 3G network and bringmon LTE. They are behind in that race. Where I am Sprint 3G is 10 times faster than what AT&T calls 4G. So it is all relative. It is easy to check coverage maps now before deciding on a carrier in your area.

there not accurate i have lived in two areas since 2011 and let me just say they said the 4g is the best and all around me its very good and where i live at my house it says in house 4g signal strength meaning the best 4g. and i cant connect to it all on my phone yet my CLEAR modem can.

even though on one of my routes everyday says there is 4g throughout it never stays on itll disconnect and drop to 3g.
