DEAD - Hot Sprint Cellphone plan - Employee Friends and Family deal (SERO)

[PizzaDude]

I've been eyeing this deal for a while and I'm wanting to pull the trigger soon, but I noticed that they took the a900 off the list of phones!?

What's the deal?

That is weird, because I ordered the Fusic and the A900M, and got them both....today.

 

[Eirgorn]

Yeah I ordered the a900m wednesday, and the order is going through now. There was a small hang up in the process - they thought I had a credit block and got me to call sprint credit, and they said everything was fine and there was no block.

However, everything seems to be going smoothly now and I cant wait to call Cingular to cancel my two accounts (one has the contract up and the other ends 1/3/07 yay!)

Thanks to everyone for bringing this up and collecting all the info on the rebates and discounts!

Hey Eirgorn, besides the 10% off rebate, what are the other rebates that we can get with this deal.

I just got my phones today and am charging them up.
I got the 1250 minute plan for $50.00 and the 500 minute plan for $30.00. I know that there is a 10% off\$5.00 off coupon on the front page of this thread, is there anything else that I can use?

 

[PizzaDude]

I think that 10% off coupon on the front page has expired.

 

[phenderson]

anyone else know of any other rebates or discounts to apply to this deal?

You can always do the refer a friend promotion. Your friend with sprint and you both get a $25 debit card for the referral. Details here

If you dont have a friend with sprint then you can gladly PM me and I will be your friend you can refer

 

[Eirgorn]

Yeah I think the 10% off flyer has expired, but I think you can get 10% off if you are a member of a credit union + there are several rebates available for the phones you got most likely.

Try the Kellogs one for each ($75) and search for your phones on Amazon and see if there are manufacturer rebates available (I think there is a $150 for the 900m). I think there is another $100 rebate thats worth giving a shot too.

You may not get back more than you paid for the phone, but Ive heard that some people have. Either way it should work out to be a free phone.

All the rebate links are on the first page of the Slickdeals forum post.

Can anyone possibly provide an employee email address? I googled @sprint.com and used an address I found there. Ordered a Treo700wx yesterday and today when I check whereismyorder.com it states: CANCELED.

I have great credit and have no idea how this happened. Can anyone possibly assist?

Thanks!

EDIT: I'm trying savings@sprint.com now, everything went through as normal. I'll just wait and see if it gets canceled again

Another one you can use is openaccess@sprint.com. It might be because the 700wx is out of stock.

 

[Headd]

Thank you for the prompt reply, I'll try that next (if this one gets canceled)

Perhaps I could order a different Treo (I really couldn't tell the difference from looking @ palm's site).

 

[thehstrybean]

Ordered my Treo 700wx and got 7pm n/w, unlimited web/data/pic mail. Should be here on the 3rd. Sent in the $150 rebate, too for the Treo. This is a HOT deal. Can anyone PM me a referall number? I'll spread the love the second I get my phone. Money for both of us.

 

[Headd]

Can you please link the rebate and how you got nights and weekends @ 7?

Thanks!

Fatwallet SERO info

The link for the MIR on the Treo is in the 2nd post.

On my plan the 7pm nights/weekends were standard. Should show up that way in the checkout.

Just jumped on this deal on 12/31/06 at 6 pm.

One question for you guys, how long was your order status in the "credit approval and account activation" stage?

This is great news. However, the "special public offer" has ended. You can no longer use savings@sprint.com as a referral address.

Googling an @sprint.com email address still works, though.

 

[Ginrai]

i have a question, i currently have sprint but still have about a yr left on my contract, can i still keep my old number and get this SERO plan instead? possible?

I don't believe you can.

I read on other site that you can type anything in front of @sprintemi.com and it's suppose to work.

Yup, it does work, but the plans are RADICALLY different. They are retail plans actually. The only two plans I can get are 900 minute and 1300 minute plans for $60 and $70 respectively. I think this deal is dead, and at a bad time too.

 

[phatj]

is there a way to get any different phones? I'm not interested in any of these phones but the plan is sweet.

 

[Nightfall]

It looks like that maybe these Sero plans are not available in my area. They are working for most everyone, except me of course.

I am in zip code 49316 in the MI area. The only plans that are coming up for me are 900 minutes at $60 a month and 1350 minutes for $80 a month.

Just picked up two phones (local store) and used two other family members on the referral. Store only had half the referral posted.

Thanks

Im in the market to get a new service. Looked on here to find a good deal and found this thread. Im able to get to the site provided and see the plan discussed. I do not see all the phones that some of you had mentioned that where good ones to get such as the 920 and so forth. The only ones I did see are the razr and the treo 700 series. If I understand correctly Power vision is the way to go and both phones support this.

If you great ppl would be so kind as to help me out. I would like some questions answered.
1. Of the phones available wich would be recomended.
2. Can any of the phones be teth. to a laptop for use as a modem and not incur additional charges
3. If my work has a corp. discount , would I be able to apply that to the plan as well.

Im a little apprehensive switching to another carrier as ive had nothing but ATT/now Cingular. I was quite happy w/att but when they switched to cingular its been going down hill ever sence. Thats why im looking now. Also if anyone can comment on the quality of the service in Ar, Ok, Tx, and La, that would be great as thats the area in wich I will be traveling mostly.

Thanks


Note. finally got the coverage map to come up on my computer and the coverage for sprint seems to be quite horrible. Looks as though everywhere i go i will be roaming and there is no power vision available in any area except major cities. Guess i was hoping for too much.
