Sprint Simply Everything plan TAXES?????

Question

Well, since I'm always going over my minutes with my current plan, and use lots of text, and planning on getting internet as well, I'm starting to think this simply everything plan for $99/ month from sprint is a good deal.

My only concern is the taxes,... with sprint and any cell phone campanies always charging "federal taxes" , "state taxes" administrative charges, regulatory charges, 911 fee, county charges, "making your statement look-pretty" charges,... ect, ect..

if anybody has this simply everything plan from sprint, can you give us some info on it? worth it? what's the monthly TOTAL? ect..

Thanks.

Answer 1

you could choose from 3 options with the everything plan. $99.99 for unlimited, $89.99 for 900 anytime minutes and $69.99 for 450 minutes and all of it already includes internet, text messaging, navigation, tv and radio.

there is a $36.00 activation fee and $12 shipping fee(if the phone was purchase online or over the phone w/ a rep this fee is being waived.)

taxes may vary depending on the state that you're located at and also about the monthly service charge of you're phone.

on the simply everything plan you can not use your discount being an employee of a corporation or being member of an organization.

this plan would require a 2 year contract but if you are already in a contract with sprint, this would not be renewed because of the right plan promise.

Answer 2

Well, I am on it but it just started March the 1st so I haven't had time to get a bill yet. The legalese from their website:



**Monthly charges exclude taxes, Sprint Surcharges (incl. USF charge of up to 10.2% [varies quarterly], Administrative Charge [$0.75/line/mo.], Regulatory Charge [$0.20/line/mo.] and state/local fees by area). Sprint Surcharges are not taxes or government-required charges and are subject to change. Details: sprint.com/taxesandfees.



May require up to a $36 activation fee/line, credit approval, deposit and $200 early termination fee/line. Simply Everything Plan: Offer ends 5/31/08. Premium content/downloads (games, ringers, songs, etc.) are an additional charge. Texts to third parties to participate in promotions or other may result in additional charges. Sprint Music includes 150 radio channels. Sprint TV includes over 20 available channels. GPS Navigation includes Sprint Navigation or TeleNav GPS Navigator. GPS reliability varies by environment. International services are not included. E-mail includes use of ActiveSync, MICROSOFT Windows Mobile with Direct Push™, VersaMail, IBM Lotus Notes Traveler® or Blackberry Internet Services (BIS). Direct Connect and Group Connect (20 maximum participants) allows connection to other Nextel Direct Connect subscribers. Offer and service plan features not available in all markets/retail locations or for all phones/networks. Sprint may terminate service if a majority of minutes or a majority of kilobytes in a given month are used while roaming. Services are not available for use as a modem, in connection with server devices or host computer applications, other systems that drive continuous heavy traffic or data sessions, or as substitute for frame relay connections.





Honestly though, with AT&T's and Verizon's Unlimited plans starting at $99/month for voice only, even a couple of bucks of taxes isn't going to hurt this plan when you throw in texting and data for the same price.

Answer 3

no yet I actual have the only each thing plan and that i'm frightened about how a lot mine will be alos, reason i only were given the instinct and that i cant be on my households plan anymore, my mom is going to freak i dont imagine i'd be having this telephone for lengthy thats all I actual could say sprint SUCKS

Answer 4

I DON'T HAVE THAT PLAN, BUT I AM A CURRENT CUSTOMER OF THEIRS AND I AM JUST WAITING UNTIL MY CONTRACT IS UP. THERE SEEMS TO BE A HIGHER CHARGE OR A NEW CHARGE EVERY MONTH AND THEY CAN NEVER FULLY EXPLAIN WHY. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THEM. THEY WILL DIG DEEP INTO YOUR POCKETS. MY LAST PHONE BILL WAS 575.00 FOR 2 MONTHS FOR 2 PHONES, WITH UNLIMITED TEXT AND 600 MINUTES (1 PHONE), 300 (1 PHONE). I WOULD TRY TO BUNDLE UP WITH SOMEONE ELSE. I AM LOOKING INTO AT&T.
