Did you get charged Activation Fee? - Sprint HTC One (M8)

They charged me $36.00 for Activation.
I am on Sprint SERO Premium but I don't think that makes a difference.

249.99 with 50 rebate if you order over the phone. If you order on line at sprint.com it's 199 and free shipping.

Actually sometime during the day, Sprint lowered it to $199 on upgrade. Not sure what tempted them to do so, but we're not complaining.

Good to know. I have no way of checking now that my upgrade has been used.
Wish they had done this earlier so I didn't have to deal with 30 minutes on the phone and having to send in a rebate form (and paying an extra $3.50 in sales tax).

I did not get charged an activation fee. Even called and double checked. But was told it was because Im on a corporate account and they do not get charged an activation fee on eligible upgrades. Coming from Evo 4G LTE

AAA discount
I just googled Sprint AAA discount and ordered it through their site, picked up an additional 10% discount on the bill and no activation fee charged at checkout...

Thanks, I just called and got my refund. I placed my order the moment they were available, about 11:50am CST and was charged $249. I would've never known if it wasn't for your post. I also got hit with the activation fee.

I may have to jump ship. Verizon has buy one get one free with a $50 of coupon making it $140 for 2 brand new HTC ones m8s...currently using a note 3 so I'm still on the fence but considering I'd save $40 a month on service if I jump as well, I may just have to give up the note 3

Apparently they posted the wrong price @ 249.99. It was suppose to have an attached promo code for $50 pricing it down to $199.99 but it was poorly communicated. Thus on the night of the 25th the new $199.99 upgrade price was posted.
So if you call into customer care, tell them your situation and let them know that you need to talk to the order status department and they will credit you $50 + associated tax ($58.xx total for me) to your Sprint account (no charge back).
Thanks girl.

$199 upgrade cost, Sprint SERO. Ordered on launch day/evening and being delivered tomorrow (Friday). $36 activation

Buying a Nexus 4 full price at T-Mobile?

Seeing as how getting a Nexus 4 from the Play Store within the next month may be impossible, who here is considering / has already purchased one full price from T-Mobile?
To my understanding, they're the exact same units as the ones sold on the Play Store (not carrier locked)
Another little perk is that exchanges would be a breeze if there was some defect in the phone.
How much is the price for that?

$499.
An idea would be to start a new contract, then cancel it over the phone in the same hour. I think your total price would be around $400

+ tax and prorated cell phone bill for at least 1 day.
T-Mobile is $499 plus tax
Good luck trying to buy off contract at T-Mobile store, I found 2 stores in Atlanta that had 1 left and they refused to sell of contract. They said the first batch is for new lines and upgrades. I tried to get one of my cousins upgrade for t-mobile, but he was out of town and I couldn't get him to make me a authorized user since he wasn't the primary to account. You can try your luck, it might be a YMMV situation.

Prorated cell phone bill would be less than $5.
No tax here in Oregon, the only thing I may have to worry about would be an activation fee
Are you sure you're able to do that? I thought they would try to charge you the full month before canceling.

Anyone else disappointed with Sprints pricing?

$250 (upgrade price), $36 activation fee...then add tax. I think it's annoying that Sprint is making us loyal customers pay the difference for new customers (as they save $100 upon signing up.)
Had to vent...

Sell your old phone on ebay/Craigslist or just sell it back to Sprint. If you work hard enough you can get the $36 activation fee waived.

I'm way more disappointed in Sprint's cell service. The S4 is a great phone and well worth $250, I payed full price off contract for mine $599, -$263 that I got for my S3 on trade in at Best Buy. But being locked into a two year contract with Sprints pathetic network is another thing.

Hopefully the completion of their LTE rollout wins you over...
ive been a sprint customer for 12 years and the last phone i got they refused to waive my activation fee. i used to just make a simple call and request they waive it, i wasnt rude, or threatening and they flat out refused. they gave me the "we're trying to expand our network and push lte to more markets" excuse. and i bought it. i figure if my 36 bucks gets lte here faster then its worth it. that wont stop me from calling every time i get hit with an activation fee.

Don't you need a membership for that? I would so do that if it was possible.
I upgraded with Sprint at Costco (yes you have to have a membership).
Phone was $195, no activation fee, and it included an accessory bundle. Not the best bundle, but hey, a free TPU case, Car charger and some other items aren't bad.
I only got charged $150 for the device when activating a new line (of course plus the activation fee, all carriers charge this). However, I also got charged a $100 deposit on the line, I'm assuming because of my credit or lack thereof. So I wound up paying $250 when I got my GS4. Is this what everyone else is talking about or did they itemize the phone as costing $250? As a note, I ordered online, not in a store if that makes a difference for anyone.
Yea, it's ridulous that Sprint would charge the most among the carriers. But I bought the S4 off-contract and they offered the best price when the preorders were going on ($599.99).

Sprint has always been cheapest carrier in terms of nearly everything (plans, phones, etc.) But this was a surprise. I'll probably wait until a 3rd party retailer has a big sale and jump on it then.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Can I upgrade through Costco/Sam's club online without membership?
I couldn't resist. I got it the first day I had an upgrade. With everything (taxes and upgrade) on top of the 250 bucks for the device my out of pocket was aroubd 280. It was quite disappointing and the insult was that I didnt enjoy the device at first after being a die hard HTC follower.

Discount tmobile refill cards

I know tmobile recently killed the discount they offered top-up card resellers, but there must be someone who is still offering some sort of discount. Anyone know of any websites that are still/currently offering any sort of discount?

None that I could find. You could still buy $50 refills for ~$40 from eBay as of last month, but even those seem to have dried up.
Yeah, I couldn't find anything. I spent 2 hours searching this morning, and all I could find were some pretty shady sites that offered no more than $2 off. I even enlisted the help of my sister, who is into extreme couponing and can find a deal on ANYTHING if you give her time.....nothing
I finally just caved and topped up the old fashioned way. If anyone finds anything I would greatly appreciate a heads-up, though. I'd love to be able to save a few bucks from now on!
Try prepaid-refill.com... I've bought tmo refills from that site a few times with no issue. They have tmo refill deals from time to time, I bought a $50 refill for $40 the other day and yes I know the risk involved with using this site.

Target sales on prepaid cards usually last a week so I'm guessing this deal is good till Saturday night.
I know this is old but best not create a new thread.
anyway, just dig around and wow these discount are completely dried out. eBay and Target even sell $100 refill for $105. Cost more than face value. Wow. Buy directly from T and have to pay tax. So my $10 refill is almost $12.
More then 10% off on the t-mobile refill

Amazon would just eat those as a loss in profit. I wonder how many of them got sold. Either way, good catch for the ones that got it for 199 off contract.

Another Verizon tip. If you're upgrading from a previously unlimited data line to 2GB of data, ask about Verizon Max (might be spelled Maxx). You get 6GB of data for the 2GB price. Got it for both mine and my wife's phone (that's 6GB per phone, not shared between the two of us). I had to call the customer support line as the store guys didn't know about it (3rd party vendor), and you'll need to go through a verification process that takes a couple days. But once done you'll have 6GB of data for $30 per month.

If they try to give you ****, you have 14 days to return the phone.
Return your phone. Then say, you know what, Id like to get that phone again.. =D bam..
but seriously, they should be able to knock it down or give you credit.
Verizon guarantees price match within 14 days of activating. I paid 200, got the 50$ off last week, just missed the other 100$ and 50 with code. So, I paid 150.

I paid 100 for the phone before getting the price adjustment. I would have paid 150 for this phone without hesitation.

So T-Mobile is giving 32gb away for free this weekend.

If you are thinking about buying an S6 T-Mobile is giving the 64gb version for the same price as the 32, or you can stay with the 32 and take a credit for the difference. And if you bought it on May 9th or after you can go switch your 32 for a 64 for free.

I told them I saw it on their website when I went to pay my bill. I just said I purchased my phone on the 20th and I saw the promotion online. I said if I had known about that I would have waited a few more days, and I was wondering if there was anything they could do for me. She put me on hold to talk to someone then came back and credited it.

I just tried looking for it and unfortunately I can't find it. It may have been an accident but after seeing it confirmed online I used the online chat and he advised me to call.
They do have the ad on TV - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfDchiL302w
I had to buy it at launch ?
My store tried to charge me the $50 restocking fee, even though I am within the grace period. Is that correct?

Nope. According to the article its supposed to be retro active. 14 days if store purchase, 20 if online.

I called customer service and they said it is a gray area, and within the discretion of the store, to charge that restocking fee. They were unwilling to do anything further. So, this did not work for me.

Call customer service from your phone with 611 and tell them your story. Chances are they will put a note on your account to give you a 50 dollar credit if the store charges you. If that does happen all you have to do is call them again and your next bill will be credited.
EDIT
Just saw your reply, I'm sure a 50 dollar credit is also at the cs reps discretion.
I was told going from 32 to 64 will have the 50$ restock. Even with the sale this weekend. And is tmo giving away the 32gb free? Would I then just not have to pay the monthly fee for it? Mine is defective anyway so I have to exchange. If the 32 is free and no monthly fee on top of the 50$ line fee then I'll take it free.
I purchased a 64 s6 and 64 edge on the 17th, customer service gave me a $160 credit to my bill. Also confirmed buyers remorse was for 14 days from the 23rd. This post saved me a bunch of money and I thank you!
