So yea their coverage has really turned to shyt (more so than it already was) I used to get easily 6-8meg speeds on wimax and decent 3G. Decent enough to browse the coli with.

:damn:

Now that shyt is embarassing. My 4G rarely cracks 2megs I get 1meg if I'm lucky. My pops was about to smash his iphone 4s since his shyt can't even connect to check email he been calling and complaining since April they told him the new vision Network should be set by the end of June and please hold off. Needless to say ain't no damn Vision network up yet.


Also they now want me to verify my corporate discount I left the job a few months back. :bryan: Any one know how to maintain it tho I no longer work for a qualifying employer.

I know before there was some number you called talked to someone that didn't give a fukk and gave you the discount. Now I heard they verify everything.

If this continues I think I'm taking my sh!t to one of the big two. :birdman:
Any of y'all struggling with this coverage?

BTW I'm Rooted and have tried damn near every modem since EL26 on the GSII, rolled back to Gingerbread, to CM10 back to ICS FH23 with FI03 modem since per XDA they are getting better speeds with that one but it's still shyt for me.

Unfortunately with the All Everything plan, you can't get a discount.

All good though, my job covers my all everything up to 120. I end up paying about 8 bux a month afterwards.

:skip:

If they trying to verify your employee discount can't you leave them because it would be changing your contract? I haven't been working for the company that I get my discount at (27%) since 2007... and I was an intern at that.

:heh:

If they want me to confirm that shyt now, I'll just leave em. LTE lit up in my neighborhood and it's around 8mbs, but hell, if I lose the 27% I'll just go somewhere else, maybe TMobile

Been thinking about leaving Sprint as well...network has gotten worse over the last 6 months or so. I live downtown in my city, and can barely stream pandora or spotify over 3G without it skipping every two seconds :damn:


I just dont wanna spend the extra bread on VZW though and i think TMobile is still shytty round here :why:

if they change your discount percentage you can opt out. if you no longer qualify for your discount you can't opt out without an ETF because you don't qualify anymore.

:aicmon: I'm saying... I checked out their plans when my sister picked up her iphone5 and if Sprints takes away my 21% discount it pretty much equals out the monthly bill with 4-5gigs of data. But with service that actually works.

Man I know they didn't check that sh!t at all before. I guess they getting brand new on us now.

I left the company giving me the discount Oct of last year. They want me to provide a pay stub, active work email from that employer or some other docs I forget what it was... but fukk I may just sell my phone and pay the ETF with that. I ain't trying to stick with MetroPcs data speeds out here.

I heard about the PRL trick. If I abuse it they'll kick me out of Sprint ETF free, no?
