does it cost extra to change sprint plan online?

Question

im still new to sprint but i found the everything data plan is fairly cheap at 69 dollars and since im already paying 69 dollars a month for the extra internet data they charge me cuz i dont have unlimited i was thinking about changing my plan a bit would they charge me for my old plan plus the added plan for the first month or will there be any extra changing fees or will it be just changed and my plan will go as normal cuz i cant afford a huge over 100 dollar bill for my phone and i like my phone cuz its far faster than the boost

Answer 1

I assume you are on an Everything Messaging plan?



There would be no extra charge. You would pay $69.99 plus taxes and surcharges; and if you have any other add-ons, such as TEP or roadside rescue.



You do not have to worry about that extra $10.00/month; You are new to Sprint, and if you had a phone that required data and the $10.00/month charge, then you would not be able to be on the plan that you are currently on. In short, you do not have a SmartPhone (Palm, Blackberry, Instinct, Droid, etc). That $10.00 charge refers primarily to phones that Sprint terms as "Smartphones", and on these "Smartphones", a plan requiring data would be required.



Keep in mind, though, that if you change your plan online, the new plan will not become effective until the beginning of your next billing cycle. It likely will not take effect immediately.



If you do make the change effective immediately, you will see prorated charges and prorated adjustments. In short, Sprint will "prorate" your old plan by dividing the total cost of the plan by the number of days in this billing cycle. The number of days that you were not on your current plan, they will credit back to your account. Then, they will take the $69.99 plan, divide it by the given number of days, and for the number of days that you were on the new plan, charge you prorated charges. Then, after all that's said and done, you'll see the $69.99 month in advance on top of that. So, don't do it effective immediately, or you'll have a confusing bill and a higher bill.

Answer 4

changing plans online i free for any carrier...



your next bill will be a bit funky... let me dumb this down since ALOT of people still dont understand advanced billing (typical wireless, wireline, cable, satalite etc billing)



say your billing cycle is something simple, like day 1-30.... you change your plan on day 15.... ok this plan costs $60... your old plan was $30... ok? bare with me.......



first, on the next bill, you will see a prorated charge of $30 for day 15-30 of your new plan. I got $30 by doing this simple advanced billing formula that 611 on all carriers used...... $60 for new plan per month.... divded by 30 days in a billing month.... times prorated day (in this case 15 since you changed it on the 15th and you cycle ends on the 30th).... so 60/30x15=$30 prorated charge.....



you will also see an advance bill charge of $60... since everyone is advanced billing....



then you will see a prorated CREDIT of your old plan... which is $15... and you guessed it.... $30/30day x 15 days = $15.... since your advanced billing, last month you already paid for this months cycle, so the carrier owes you back that money since you changed you plan in this mid cycle...



so, in essence, you next bill will be $60 advance, $30 prorated, -$15 prorated credit, another of feature fees, taxes, and walla.....



now you know, and everyone knows the secret to 611 billing answers...

Nope theirs no fee for changing if plan. But it isn't 69.99 anymore. It's 79.99. The extra 10 is a 4G and data charge.
