My wife just told me that she's eligible for two more lines of service on her sprint account. So I decided to list my new Evo 4G and New Evo Shift in the Market for sell ..hint hint! Anyways, I was thinking about getting either the Nexus S only because its $49.99 online at bestbuy or the Evo 3D. However, for some strange reason Bestbuy online will not let me add a line of service online. Apparently, I have to go to the actual store. Now, with the account being in my wife's name would I have any problems opening a new line of service without her being there with me?
I mean, I have the passcode to the account and all that information.When we have problem, I'm the one that calls sprint not her. I also upgraded her line for her a couple of months ago at the sprint store without her presence and had no issues. But i never did it at Bestbuy. I'm hoping they let me open the line.
I plan to tryout the Nexus and hold off on the Evo for a couple of weeks to see if it has any issues at release. If it doesn't or if the issues are minor, I'll exchange the Nexus for the evo.
From what i understand you cannot do anything without the account holder with you. You mighy be able to have them call her from the store to have her ok it. Hope this helps.

That's a lie, yes he can get the new phones as long as he has access to make changes to the account..
If he knows the security code and her last 4 digits of his wifes SS# he's good to go..
Correct, as long as you have her Social, obviously her full name and phone number, and the Sprint 6-8 digit Passcode, you should be good to go.
you should be fine. I used to do that when I was on my mom's VZW account back when I was 18. as long as you have the passcode, last for of SSN, name and address...you'll be able to access the account. also...make sure that deal isnt online only....sometimes the store dont honor their online prices

well my SIII that I received on the 21st is broken for good and won't power up.
I plan to exchange it for the same thing but my question is:
Does AT&T offer some sort of shipping me a new one then I return the broken one when it gets here? Or am I going to have to send mine out then wait for them to process and ship new one?
Appreciate the help.
i dont think any company do it without sending the phone back.
Why dont you take it to your local AT&T store and have them process an exchange?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
They used to do it that way at one point. Not sure what they do now as its been a while since I've done I it. I've been shipped a phone from AT&T then shipped mine back ac tear receiving new one. If you didn't ship yours back they charged your account for the price of the phone. However I did notice a return shipping label in the box of my gs3.

AT&T Store won't process an exchange because the phone was ordered online
AT&T generally sends you a new phone in the mail with a return mailer to send the old one back in. If the old one is never returned or if the damage / non working condition was caused by you then they will charge full price for the phone..
Call technical support and they will do the rest.. Now the question is do they have any in stock to mail?
If it won't boot because you a brick while root then cross your fingers that they don't notice or care..
Sorry getting used to the new Auto correct on this phone.

I just called and they are saying they only shipped first for iphones. ha. So I have to either send it out and wait. Or wait for them to come in stock at a store.
Which would be the better route?
Call again because that is BOGUS!
AT&T does not do iPhone exchanges.. Even when it's within the the 30-day exchange period they still direct you to Apple or an Apple store...
I think they fed you a line because they don't have any in stock...
I warrantied a Note and a Skyrocket and both times they sent the new phone to me 1st with a return mailer included for the bad device to be sent back in...

When I got my GS2 it was defective and they sent out a new one to me first and then I shipped my GS2 back to them. And the person who said if you order online you can't exchange at a store is wrong. As long as you ordered it from the att website you can exchange it at any corporate store. When I got my GS2 exchanged through the mail it was after they told me I could exchange it in store but the 3 by me didn't have it in stock(they were already pushing the Skyrocket instead) . One store wanted to exchange it with a Skyrocket so I said no and just did it over the phone.

they're pissing me off. Should I call back and ask why they can't ship a new phone first? If not what would be the better move:
1. Take shipping slip they emailed me and send mine out.
2. Wait and exchange it when stores get stock.

Not true, I have exchanged several phones to AT&T stores that I have ordered online. Never had any issues.
Many years ago, I had to do an exchange due to a faulty camera button on my phone. (This was like 2005... pre-smartphone days. I'm pretty sure they were AT&T at the time, although they might have switched to Cingular... not sure)
Anyhoo, I called up AT&T, the rep said no problem. Processed the exchange.
About an hour later, I get a text message from the rep telling me that she accidentally processed it as a new sale instead of an exchange, and to call 611 to sort it all out. So I called 611, and the new rep told me that when the new phone arrives, just reject the shipment. It'll get sent back to AT&T, and I'll be credited, and everything will zero itself out.
So, FedEx shows up, I reject the delivery, and I think all is well.
I ended up having to battle that charge for 6 months. AT&T claims that the phone never made it back to their warehouse. Said the phone was signed for. Turns out when I did the FedEx research myself, the phone DID make it back to AT&T, and the signature they saw was the signature from the original delivery.
But the AT&T reps wouldn't hear anything of it. They kept insisting that I was trying to pull some scam over on them. Apparently, tracking numbers and dates don't mean anything to them.
After 6 months of battling, I finally got a supervisor to credit my account as an act of good faith because I had been such a loyal customer. He acted as if he was doing me this huge favor. They still refused to admit that they had done anything wrong.
The ONLY reason I am still with AT&T today is because at the time, the other carriers had crap service in my area, and AT&T had the best phones.
My current contract is up in 3 weeks. I'm debating getting the GS3 with AT&T, or Verizon. Remembering this episode makes me want to lean towards Verizon.
But at any rate, the moral of the story is that whenever you ship something back to AT&T, make sure to get the tracking number, and don't just trust that they'll process it properly. Follow through!
Call them again. They will ask you to do a few things to make sure you have tried everything to get it to turn on. Once you go through that whole process they will set up an exchange for you. They will ship you out a phone and you ship yours back once you receive it. You will ship yours back in the same box. I have done it half a dozen times over the last 2 years with no issues.
Good luck
Exchange

I suggest to always add the asurion insurance, you never know what can happen at any given moment. Also if it is a warranty issue, your local at&t store will exchange it for free, as long as it's not physical damage.

Store will exchange it for you if there's a issue within 30 days.
You will have to contact customer care after 30 days and they will have you go through a bunch of hoops on the phone to try to fix the issue your having. If they can't fix it on the phone they send you another one and then you have to send yours back within 7-10 days otherwise they will add the cost of the phone to your bill.
The only time I can think of the store swapping it out after 30 days would be if there was a shortage of the phone at corporate, but then they would put a note in your account to do the swap for you at the store, but this phone isn't really hard to get your hands on anymore at this point, so I don't get that.
^^ I concure .. An OFFICIAL AT&T store .. no one of these mom and pop stores.. will exchange your phone automatically right there in the store as long as your are within there 30 day period .. in which you are.
My first SGSIII died within 1 week of receiving it from AT&T .. I walked into my local AT&T store and exchanged it that same day (as long as they have stock) .. you should have no problems at all.
So middle of last month I bought a playstore galaxy nexus and an at&t straight talk sim. I ported my phone number over and paid for the first month of service with my debit card. No issues. Well fast forward to today I bought a 3 month card from walmart.com and want to add it to my reserve so I can have 3 more months of service but I still have about 10 days until I need to refill. I try adding the pin online with no luck and so I call in to add the pin. The lady I talk to says that I can't add a pin until after my service expires at the end of my month. So essentially I have to wait until my service turns off before I can add a 3 month pin? Does that sound right?
Thanks
You can add it to your "reserve" at any time, and it'll be applied when your current month ends. If the CS rep doesn't understand properly, make sure you explain clearly that you need it added to the reserve.
I just did this on the phone last week with a refill card that wouldn't add to my account properly online (still don't know why). She knew what the reserve was and did it for me no problem.
Do not let your service run out. Always have a refill in the reserve or auto-refill w/ a card on the account. ST is pretty explicit about having something set up to continue your service, otherwise they'll close the account when the service runs out.
Thanks. I'll give them another call on my lunch break. If its always going to be a hassle like this I think I will just do the auto refill after the 3 month card runs out. Saving $5 bucks a month is not worth the hassle. Still love the service for the price.

No problem.
Glad the CS worked for you. I had them run through my account and fix a few issues when they added the card too, so we'll see if I'm able to add a refill to reserve online come the end of this month. I have no problem doing it once a month to save a few $$ if I can do it without calling.
So I think they accidentally added the time to my account twice because now it says I am covered until April, which is like 6 months. Wondering if I should say anything...

What'll probably happen is once they actually take the PIN and apply it to the account (which is when this month ends), it'll then be invalid for the next time it tries to apply it.
It'll likely correct itself. If it doesn't change in 10 days when you start that PIN, you make the call on whether or not to call them rofl.
Well I bought the gs3 with my account but now that the note2 is out I want to have that phone. My mom is due for an upgrade and I thought I can give her my gs3 and then buy the note2 on her upgrade (different accounts) but they told m no because its not on the same account and if the phone its not on her act for 24hrs they will charge her fullretail price. Is this true? If so, what can be done? Because I want that phone.

Which wireless carrier do you use?
I did almost the same thing with Sprint to get mine. I'm on a family acct though. Used my brother's upgrade and got it activated on my number because my upgrade wasn't due for a while. They let me do it no problems. But being on different accounts might make a difference why that won't let you do it.
Sent from my SPH-L900
Get it on her upgrade, activate and let her use it for a couple days, then swap and give her the gs3. It may be easier if you have a spare older phone laying around that you could swap with your gs3 to free up the gs3's esn. That way when you swap with your mother, they won't see that it's attached to your account. You should even be able to do the esn swap on sprints website if you were to do it that way and you would not even have to call. If I am remembering right, I am pretty sure I have done this before for myself.

Well finally its done, I went to other store and then eve swap it for me. Apparently the other guy was new and had to ask the store manager and she refuse to do the swap and she even told me she was going to put a warning on the acct. Anyway I went to other store, bought the phone, swap it to my acct and walk out with it. No problem whatsoever. Now I'm the new owner of the note2 :thumbup: :victory:
I guess it depends on the person who you talk to.

I will be at the store nearest me at 8:30 Friday morning to try and get one. I am *so tired* of getting the runaround by ATT reps. First the inability to preorder online, then the phone rep telling me there's nothing she could do and they had no idea, and to go talk to a store. One store telling me that I could come back in a few days and preorder it from them, then saying a few days later they didn't even have the SKU in the system. *Then* that same store told me I wouldn't have a hard time at all getting one, however, I called back yesterday and they said "We aren't getting very many, you might want to be here early." ARGH. This shouldn't be this frustrating.

This really sucks. I went to an at&t store and waited until they opened this morning. They had 5 galaxy notes for sale but they would not sell me once because I would not sign a new contract. I tried buying the phone for full price and they told me it could be over a month before they are able to sell the GN2 off contract. I called customer support who actually called the store because they couldn't believe they wouldn't sell it to me. Customer support ended up saying its up to the manager to decide if they have limited stock...blah blah blah.
Terrible customer service from at&t as usual. I don't know what to do about it now because even customer support would not let me order it from them directly on the phone. I have a business account with them so I am waiting to hear back from my company rep but this BS should be allowed to exist. I am literally willing to give them $650 + tax for a phone and they won't take my money. If it wasn't for my grandfathered unlimited data plan than I would think about leaving them. Does anyone have any similar experience or suggestions on how to make this happen for me? I really wanted to get a GN2.

Just got a sprint s3 off Craigslist and its still activated what can i do?
http://baltimore.craigslist.org/sys/4113179852.html
Call sprint.
Be careful with phones on craigslist. You can try transferring the phone to your account, but I believe the original account holder is still responsible for taking his account off of the phone. For security measures, Sprint may contact the account holder of the phone to see if it is lost or stolen first, and if the guy really wants to screw you over, then he can say that, yes, the phone was lost/stolen, and it will blacklist the serial number of that phone. Now he has your money, and you don't have a phone.
If they guy is nice, he'll work it out with Sprint to deactivate his account, and you'll be set.
In short, if you're doing a craigslist deal, next time, meet with him in a Sprint store, and ask the Sprint employee to make sure that the ESN is good before paying him the money. Otherwise, it's easy to get scammed.

When i bought the phone i just checked to see that it works, and later i realized that it was getting text messages and the data was working, and i called sprint and they said i have to hand it in at a sprint store...

Hate to be the one to say it. But if it is stolen you are out of luck. The Device is no longer viable on Sprint. If it is stolen, it will most likely be reported soon. Then it will be deactivated from the Network, and have a Bad ESN ( Stolen / Lost / Other ) . Next time I suggest following the advice given by metayoshi. Meet the seller at a Sprint store. That way you are safer. Also if you ever want to check out the ESN on Device before purchasing it. You can use THIS SITE. It's free .
I texted the guy I bought the phone from that if he doesn't get the phone deactivated I'll report his phone number to the police

i bought mine from a friend for 100. when he mailed it he forgot to wipe his info. so it showed up activated. i just reset msid and mdn to all 0000. added it to my account via the website. rebooted when i did so it went through hands free activation. works fine been using it a week.
