Alright, I am quite irritated with sprint at this point. I have been with them for a year and a half. I went in to swap my phone with the 18 month phone upgrade. I get there and they said the program no longer exists, EVEN THOUGH it was initially part of the reason I chose sprint. They made some bogus excuse saying that they are doing this to avoid mail in rebates. They give $75 off after a year, and $150 after 2. The problem is that it doesn't come close to covering a new phone.

I guess the question is, is there any way I can talk these guys into givng me a new phone, or am I out of luck? I went in and was treated poorly by the store, and kind of pushed aside....should I go higher up? icon_ermm.gif

UPDATE:

I went in and tried asking for the rebates immediately, and now they are telling me I don't even qualify for mail in rebates at all...what a bunch of garbage.

That is soo bogus, because I needed a new upgrade and was looking forward to using this incentive when I get back in March... Very dissapointed as well. No free 18 month upgrade, lack of bluetooth capabilities, I guess I can wait it out until the end of my contract in 6 months and switch to Verizon.
