My wife and I are splitting up and I cant afford to pay the bill for two lines nor can I count on her to pay her half either. What is the Sprint etf per line? I know I could find it somewhere but my daughters are off the wall today.

Load Verizon prl and download torrents till they terminate your line with no ETF.

You should be able to go into a sprint store and have them make her line a new account. But then she would have to agree to it and all..

Yeah its my account only. I like the idea of breaking up the lines to different accounts though.

Good if its under you name no problem just go there and have them setup a different plan. They will contact your ex and let them know of it and give them time to respond or they will cancel her phone. I had to do this awhile back
You can do a change of responsibility. Ask Sprint about that.

Are you paying for hot spot?? Sprint can see if you're using a wifi tether app and that violates the TOS so that's probably why you got the letter.
That's a lot of ggggggbs.
I guess as long as you didn't tether I would agree with you.

The phone no. But canceling service yes. All you should have to do is call or go up to sprint and say that you want to transfer to what ever phone youd like.

Doesnt cost anything but in order to sell the device it cant be active on your acct for someone else to use it.. you need to switch it with another device (esn change)

Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA Premium HD app
I just got the letter for roaming..actually they called also. They are letting me port both my lines with no ETF.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
They terminate the main line at first. An ETF is charged and you have to call in to have it waived manually.
If the line is part of a family plan, you can argue that the termination of one line has caused a material change that is reason to have the other lines terminated as well.
They haven't canceled me. I just got the warning letter and a call. They called and even gave me number directly to the "excessive roaming dept"..told me just to call back when I port out. Funny thing is I wasn't abusing. Legit roaming. In six months I only went over 300mb of data roaming twice and got flagged.

Why would they give up money makers? Just dump the one that's costing them money, and force you to pay early termination for the rest of the lines. Makes good business sense.
It doesn't matter what they "should" do..they offer to let go all lines on a family plan with no ETF. Anyone who got the letter and wants the phone number to the dept pm me. It's not toll free tho..all I did was tell them my phone roams while at home. I refuse to set it to Sprint only as its my primary line and I have children. There is no way for me to avoid the roaming. All legit.

Yeah, they offered the airave box to me also, but I pointed out that it doesn't help with data, only voice. They flagged me for data..still BS if you ask me. As stated earlier, I only went over 300mb twice in six months and wasn't by much. Didn't even hit 400mb. It's fine with me tho. I planned on going to Verizon anyway. The lack of 4G and slow as heck 3G is just getting old.

Because they (lines) go as a package on a family plan. Second line is $20-30 so what's gonna happen, charge you that amount? If primary line gets etf then automatically whole package goes, if secondary line and so forth gets etf they etf that line but you call to straight things out and goodbye sprint.

I have a line with an upgrade that will be going to Verizon. Anyway I can use it on my line without having the other line's contract extended by 2 years? Waste of an upgrade if not used lol
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I don't think so. You have to extend the contract on the line you buy the phone on. I usually do this when other lines are due for upgrades and my line isn't.

Because when they purchased the phone they got it at a huge discount that Sprint subsidized counting on this person being a customer for 2 years. Now they terminated early and did not pay the ETF so the only recourse besides filing with a collection agency is to deny them the revenue (they think) of selling the phone.

My wife actually had a phone with a bad MSN. So I took it over and developed it. Always nice to work on device with no worries. I tested it as much as I could. It still works with wifi so, able to still almost everything but actually make a call. There are apps out there to actually make a call via wifi but then that actually would defeat the purpose of a "phone". Unless, your connected to wifi all day everyday.
