Yeah, been that way for a couple months now
I had it, now I dont see it on mine when I sign on... I called Tmo the other day for my G1 acting up and it asked if I wanted to do it and I said later. Is it still in affect?
Ended up not being cheaper for me.
Seems like every time T-mobile offers an upgrade, it cost me an extra 10 bucks. I guess if I didn't have myfaves for both phones, then it would prolly be in my best interest to have it.

not true...i've been in good standing with t-mo for 7 years+. when i called last month to inquire, they said it was only open to "select" customers...even today, when i log onto the website, the unlimited plan still shows $99.99. wtf?? i have been with these fools since 2001!
i've sent an email to t-mo just now. i'll advise as soon as i hear back.

I work in a store and have run into this issue. I thought it was people who have been with us for 22 months or more but I guess there are some hidden factors there. The only thing I can think of is if you had your service suspended. Other than that I can't think of anything else that would effect it.

i don't think my service has been suspended any time in the past 4+ years...i'm wondering if it's because i don't ever use anywhere near my current plan's 1500 minutes.
here's the log of my chat session with T-Mo CS:
me: can you tell me why i don't qualify for the "unlimited loyalty" plan? i have been with t-mobile for nearly 8 years.
CSR: Today, this offer is available only to selected customers.
CSR: T-Mobile runs promotional offers and test offers that are available to different groups of customers, and at this time, your account does not qualify.
CSR: In the future, your account may be eligible for similar type offers. For some of our test offers, whether or not we extend these offers beyond the initial qualified group depends on response from our customers.
CSR: The exact criteria used for the promotion is not available as many different pieces of criteria were considered when selecting the specific audience available for this promotion.
me: so there are no specifics as to why i don't qualify after more than 7 years as a t-mobile customer?
CSR: This is a promotional offer only available for a short time
CSR: Based on the response to this offer, we hope to extend it to a wider audience in the future.
me: thank you for your help.

Its probably nothing you've done or your usage just a stupid system. The only other thing I can think of is if you changed your number anytime in the last 2 years. If not keep bugging customer care till they give it to you.

i did change my number, but it was 5 years ago when i moved to california. i just edited my previous message to add the chat session i had with a csr. it seems qualification is random...like i said, i go nowhere near my plan minutes now (1500 for $49.99) so i'm not really missing out on anything...it's just...if they're gonna reward people for their "loyalty", i certainly want to be recognized for my 80 months of loyalty!!

My understanding is that this is the unlimited Loyalty plan is not available to business/corporate lines (which is what your account is if you are getting a discount through your employer.) It is somewhat hard to get positive confirmation of this though. The eligibility requirements on the web are vague. I have been w/ T-Mobile since 2001 and I was offered the option.

ahh...that makes sense...in january my company sent an email to all associates telling us we can receive a 10% discount on our t-mo bill. i called and gave the CSR the code. i bet they then switched me to a corporate account.
things are getting clearer...but why couldn't the CSR tell me that today?
sounds like they were just giving you a standard response without even really looking at your account.

I feel the same way. I like the idea of having unlimited minutes but I have more than enough with myfaves and my 600 minutes right now. I almost never touch the 600 in a month with Nights and weekends on there.
I think, if you believe i'm so "loyal" and you want to offer me a "deal" make it something cheaper than what I already use.

finally, a "non standard" response. i received an email today telling me that i do, in fact, qualify for the unlimited loyalty plan, but i would lose my corporate discount. then the CSR said she reviewed my usage and recommended that i stay at my current plan. she told me that i'd save $10.70/mo if i do NOT switch.
Cathy H 7284060, at t-mo, if you are reading this, you rock.
First let me say sorry if this was posted before, I searched and found nothing on it.
I just got off the phone with a T-mobile Rep and, he explained to me, that If i sign up for a new contract when purchasing the Nexus I will not be eligable for my 15% corporate discount on rate plane.
Has anyone successfully used their discount on a rate plan using the N1? I find it hard to believe that Google cares that much about me getting a 15% discount.
Thanks!
I couldn't even get my corporate discount on the regular non-contract plans. I decided to downgrade my minutes, and I have to pay full price for the 500 min, unlimited data and text plan, which is $60.
Their reasoning was that "it's already discounted," whatever that means.
---
Oh, I just wanted to add that you can just buy the "unlocked" phone for full price and use your existing plan. That might save you in the long run, depending on how much you pay at the moment.
Yea I am currently on the Even More Plus (no Contract) and was willing to sign the two-years to get the nexus subsidized, then use my discount to get the 1000 min + Text + Web for 75 with insurance but I was told Google will not allow Discounted rate plans with the N1...
The lack of corporate discount has nothing to do with the N1 and everything to do with the Everything More + plans. EM+ plans are not eligible for corporate discount to the base plans, though the add-ons may be discounted and activation fees may be waived depending on the corp discount. This is true regardless of the phone you use.
If you are on a regular EM plan (or an older eligible plan) you can still have your corporate discount with that plan and the N1.
The way I know it as a T-Mobile rep is that if you are on EvenMore, you get get the discount (lets say it was 15%) plus the waived act fees. If you are on Even More Plus, you still get the waived act fee but you dont get the monthly discount because its already cheaper than the Contracted one with your discount on that. I understand were everyone comes from cause the discount should be applied the any rate plan but, I don't think T-Mo would be getting enough money to expand the network like we want and bring in the devices that we want if they did do that especially because they give discounts to so many different organization (business, AAA, alumni, students, faculty, gov, churchs, etc). But just to lay it out so every one understands let take EvenMoreTTW Unlimited and EvenMorePlusTTW Unlimited. EM would be $85 after discount and EM+ is still 80. Usually if you get a great discount on your phone and monthly, EM would come out better (just realize that the phone discount would only be for the new act and not upgrades later) but if its just that plan you get a discount on EM+ is the way to go for the long run.
Yea I am on the EM+ but was willing to switch to the EM plan to use my discount. I was told that the discount COULD NOT be used because when purchasing the phone from google they only allow Individual Plans not Corporate Plans.
This made no sense to me but thats what I was told.

Since my significant other is on a discounted plan with an N1 I am not sure as to the validity of the argument. I personally am on the loyalty plan and do not see a point in changing. Did you call business suppport? if you just dialed 611 I would not be surprised with that answer, look at the extremely inconsistent answers on everything else (plans, insurance, support...) coming out of the CSRs.
Since you already have the phone, and I assume you got it subsidized at the new contract rate ($179), your options may be more limited. If however you are on a corporate plan and bought it at existing customer subsidy (now $279 if memory serves) or unsubsidized you most certainly can have a corporate discount.
i bought unlocked so Tmobile didnt touch my corporate discount let alone know im using a n1
ok i got it all taken care of, the original CS Rep was misunderstanding what I asked. Glad I got it all cleared up.
Thanks for those of you who posted and chimed in with responses!!
Ok this may sound weird but I got the phone on contract by adding a line to my account like I stated. I just decided (after ordering the phone) that I dont wanna be on a contract and i just want to buy the phone outright.
Can I just cancel the added line with T-Mobile and pay the Recovery Fee or 350.00 to google or do I have to return the phone then let them refund my account then order it again unsubsidized.
I guess my real question is How do i go about getting google to charge me the ERF so I dont have to ship and wait for a refund just to order it again?
When I went in and got my SIM card, I got my discount. Activation fee waived, and 15% off my plan (everything more plus or w/e...the $60 one)
Also just as a referce for everyone, so if you have a corp discount you can apply, just go into any store after do the EM plan buying a N1 and then the will still add it. I have gotten no word from T-Mobile that we aren't allowed to add the discount to the plan. Its pretty much the phone is just sold through google, once your plan is set up and everything yo can do whatever as far as adding discount or changing plan. Honestly on our side you wouldn't see anything. You just can't switch to EM+ cause that would cause a ETF. As far as the loyalty plan, that 50 for unlimited minutes and 35 more if you add texting and data, so you would save $5 a month and make up the migration fee of $35 over time but just up to you if a contract is a problem or not thats all. I probably would stay contracted if you like Tmo on the single line loyalty it doesn't get too much better.
Even More Plus plans were never eligible for corporate discounts, but Even More plans are. I have a discount on mine. However, T-mobile dropped the discount... so when I switched to buy the subsidized phone, my discount went from 15% to 6%. Sucks, but better than nothing.
DynaBass139: Sort of off topic but I would not switch to EM+ because I would lose number portability. I am not under any contract obligation at this point so ran the numbers and debated the subject a great deal. Granted I am unlikely to change carriers but I have had the same phone number for close to a decade now. If I decide/need to switch carriers I want to keep it.. The deal is good enough, though I wish T-Mo would drop the web to $30 to put it on parity with EM+ for cost.
(I have historically not subsidized my phones because T-Mo has not had the phones I have wanted. I have gone through a long list of HTC phones starting at the Blue Angel in 2004 I think, down to the N1 I bought on release day. If a N2 comes out on T-Mo with a keyboard I might try and subsidize that though. 2 $500+ phones in a year would be a bit too much.)
I was just gonna say I went in the day after I got mine and received the Fedex corporate discount no prob. Too late.
Ok i am just going to stay on my EM+ without the discount but I made the mistake of choosing the subsidy by opening a new line.
anyone know if I can just cancel that new line that I opened and just pay the other 350.00 off. i know google has the equipment recovery fee so how does that get charged?
Well, I certainly woke up to a pleasant surprise. I've been stuck with having to buy the Evo on Wirefly to claim a hundred dollar savings I had won, only to see that the final price is thirty dollars lower than I expected! You pay $169.99 with a 35 dollar activation fee. There's no taxes, and the FedEx shipping is free.
For those of you wondering, Wirefly is a reputable place to purchase from. Two weeks ago, I purchased two blackberry Curves and a Hero from them with a new contract. They waived the activation fee via a promotion, shipped it within twenty four hours of ordering via two day FedEx for free, and the phones arrived in two days after it was shipped. The only problem is speaking to their sales department; it consists of nothing but overseas representatives who are difficult to understand at times and try to push device protection on your devices constantly. If you order online, though, there's absolutely no issues. They allow you to check on the status of your order, and include every detail of the purchase and plan in the sales receipt if you want to make changes.
Just thought I'd share this great deal .
Edit: Oh! I also forgot to mention that Wirefly is a partner of Bing Cashback. When you order through Bing, you get $50 cash back on your account. That brings the total cost of the device down to $119.99. Sounds good to me!
I have used Wirefly 3 times before and they are great! I am impatient and do not want to wait for my phone this time though haha
That sounds pretty awesome! I'm going to have to see what I can do with this one.
If ordering from them do you know if I can port a phone number?

Yes, you can port your phone number through them. I transferred my parent's and brother's numbers from Metro PCS to the Sprint phones without a problem.
I wonder what will happen if someone tries to upgrade who is not eligible for an upgrade and who is still on contract. I went through the motion of buying it there and the final price came to $180 or something. Wonder what would happen after I get the phone.

can't you just call up sprint once your order is processed to add the discount? nowhere in their terms state you can't add discount; it says you can't switch to a lower service plan, but adding a discount isn't lowering the service plan
here's the terms of their instant discount:
INSTANT DISCOUNTS
Wirefly promises you savings in the form of instant discounts with no rebates or gimmicks when you sign up for wireless carrier service. Delivering on this promise means that you must agree to maintain your agreement for a minimum of 6 months after activation. Deactivating your phone, or downgrading features or the rate plan, may lead to additional charges.
When you sign up for wireless carrier service through Wirefly, we discount your phone purchase price by an Equipment Discount amount ranging from $200 to $300. By ordering through Wirefly, you agree to repay this discount if, during the 181 days after your new equipment is activated, if you:
Fail to pay your balance due to your carrier each month
Disconnect this line of service
Transfer this equipment to another line of service
Change your carrier service rate plan to a lower monthly service rate plan
Deactivate the email/data feature if one was required at the point of purchase
Transfer/port an existing phone number from another account if this is a new line of service
Replace an existing account with this account if this is a new line of service
Return or exchange your phone and it is not in its original, new condition with no more than 30 minutes of usage
If you break any of these contract provisions, except as a result of a documented service quality issue related to the carrier service, you authorize us to charge your credit card in repayment of the Equipment Discount.
EDIT: they changed the price to $189.99
As of 4:30 this afternoon, Wirefly has officially run out of HTC Evos. The site lists the next shipment time in five to seven days. Fortunately, I was able to get my order placed at 4:00. Unless you really want that $50 rebate, I'd look toward other stores.
These things are selling out an alarming rate.
Now it says shipping within 20 days...
Oh man. Still $50 is probably worth it considering I still have my iPhone for the time being.
i know letstalk is getting shipment June 10, but they still have backorders they need to fulfill; don't know any other place where i can get it without waiting for the mail in rebate
sprint online store has them in stock and can receive in 2-5 days, but not willing to pay $1049 now and have to wait for rebates for 2-4 months

You couldn't be more correct. I stupidly placed the order for my parents and brother via Wirefly's sales department via phone, and it was a horrendous experience. It took over an hour for the idiot to understand what I wanted, write my name down properly, and to shut up about the extended warranty and accessories.
That being said, that's what the online store is for. It's just like the rest of them.
Also, wow. Shipping within 20 days? I was 15 minutes away from having to wait a month for my Evo to arrive? Insane.
I got lucky and got my order in before they raised the price. 169 + 50 bing cash back plus avoiding 45$ in taxes here in CA. It arrives tomorrow =).

Holy crap, shut up! Mine is arriving tomorrow as well! . Of course, I placed my order when it was back at $189.99, but it's still a great deal.
Any idea what'd happen if I tried to order this even though I'm not eligible for an upgrade from Sprint? I'm trying to see if I can grab one of these to participate in development. Although, I'm not sure I'm willing to blow $450 for the privilege.
Ok. I'm on Wirefly and I want to add this phone as a new line on a family plan.
I am seeing:
Service Plan: $9.99/month
Sprint Data Pack - mobile web, web-based email, and basic Sprint TV/Music: $15.00/month
4G Premium Data: $10.00/month
What's that $15/month part? If my family is already on the Any Mobile Any Time with data included, is that required?
I want to try and put this in ASAP!

It does look like I can get this for $189 (+$50 bing cashback) if I select that I would like to extend my contract with Sprint. I'm a little curious about this, you'd think that I shouldn't be able to do this, but at the same time Wirefly probably has no idea that I started my contract in November 09. I'm just worried about what happens when I get the phone! Is no one the wiser? Do people just not know? Maybe I should try this out and give you all an update as to the outcome. I'm willing to bet if there's some kind of foul up and a cancellation charge appears on my account, I could possibly settle it with Sprint feigning ignorance. It's not like I want to jump ship or anything after all, I like Sprint.
Hope you find out. I'm on my hero and not due for upgrade or anything... I wanna upgrade to evolution from hero, but don't have hundreds of dollars

I you're a student and on Sprint, this might interest you.
http://www.studentrate.com/STUDENTRATE/all/get-all-student-deals/Sprint-Student-Rate-Member-Discount--/0
Is this one of the discounts they're discontinuing next month?
Read the fine text: Has to be used online, and from what I gather, you'll basically be renewing your contract for another two years, signing a new contract, or adding a line (see first consequence).
While 23% is nicer than the 20% I get through working for a municipality, I'll stick with my 20% for now. Thanks though!
They originally offered 15%, which I signed up for at first, then about a month ago they upped the discount to 23%. Think they also have a T-Mobile 25% discount. All you need to sign up is a .edu email addrress. Doesn't even have to be yours, just get someone to let you use it.
Now I get 25% off recurring fees per month and 50% accessories through work :O
I wanted this deal but the EVO's been sold out online since the release.

Fortunately I ordered online at midnight from the studentrate site on release day and had an EVO 3 days later. I feel bad for people who have been waiting 3 months. With the 23% discount my bill is $70/month after taxes and everything. It kind of takes the sting out of the $10 charge, but the thought of paying $10 less with another smartphone just brings the pain right back.
Any other discounts that I dont have to resign 2 years for? I just got the Evo and im paying 100+ a month on this 79.99 play ugh, help!
Any way to get the student discount by calling?

If you just bought your phone and service with Sprint, I suggest hopping on a discount soon because it will only extend your contract for a month or however long you've had your phone. It doesn't add 2 years to the end of your contract, it just starts a new 2 year agreement. Unless you already had service with Sprint, you won't be adding much to the length of your contract if you do it soon.
I bought my Evo through Studentrate when it was first released and have the 15% discount. Are you saying that I can somehow switch that to a 23% discount without buying anything? Anyone actually done that and if so, how?

I don't remember exactly how I did it, you just click the link for the discount at the studentrate site. I think down at the bottom of the RI Sprint page it will say something about adding a discount to a line. Then you enter your info and Sprint will notify you if you qualify. YMMV.

Yes it can be done. S.W.I.M. signed up with the 15 percent discount and as soon as the 23 percent discount became available...he migrated to it.
Actually what you should have done, since you are a member over there, is read the 30+ page thread about this.
you dont need to purchase your phone through them or extend your contract. I got this discount directly through sprint, it was 15% when i first signed up back in october. I had to be very persistent, it took me more than one call. You also have to have the primary account holder be the owner of the .edu email address. I will try to get them to increase my discount to 23% now that it is a higher discount, maybe they did it automatically I didnt check my last bill yet.

The normal student discount is 15%, but there is a discount only for members of a certain Rhode Island education association that is 23%. Not every student is eligible for the 23% so I doubt Sprint increased your discount. When you sign up for the 23% discount online it clearly states that your contract will be renewed, but maybe by calling a Sprint rep like you did, one might be able to keep the same contract termination date with some haggling.
I get 23% off for being a Chrysler employee. Also can upgrade every year.

Go back to your SR account, go through the same steps as when you were ordering, get the new code, then go to the website that's given, apply the code and you'll receive an email within a day stating that you've been approved for the 23% discount. I've been rocking it for 2 months and I'm kind of pissed that I'll be loosing it on the 3rd line.
Oh, BTW, did you ever get your $50/per line invoice credits for each evo - should have been on split over the first and second bill. We never got ours, so I called, chatted and finally got the $150 (3 evos) today. Now I'd like to know where that damn rebate is...

I forgot all about that invoice credit. I'm checking my last two bills and I'm not seeing any credits. Luckily I keep all paperwork and I have the original order invoice that lists the credit that I should receive. Who did you call? Studentrate or Sprint?
edit: My rebate shows that it has mailed so I'm not too worried about that. Already got and cashed the 25 bucks from studentrate.
Hi all,
Welcome to Epic release day! If you haven't left the house yet to stand in line at the local Sprint store here is your chance to save a little money!
I'm a Sprint employee and the Epic is now available on the employee referral plan. (I'm an IT guy, not sales. I get nothing for doing this but the satisfaction of helping out other people ).
Here's all you need from me:
email: sal<dot>conti<at>sprint<dot>com
CID: 646
www.sprint.com/sero
Hurry while supplies last (you can also get the EVO there too, but supplies are running out!)
Please see the web page for terms and conditions. Offer is only valid on new customers or current customers adding a new line to their account.
ENJOY!
I checked it out, but it showed no discount, still $349
Wow, $249 after a $100 mail-in rebate. That's one hell of a deal, Sal.
He is referring you to the plans...
The problem is, you can't become a Premier customer on any of those plans.
They look like good prices for the plans, but I already get 25% off through my company.
Actually you do qualify for the Sprint Premier plan with the 4G phone plans.
Do Everything Plus customers qualify for Sprint Premier?Sprint Premier is our unique loyalty program giving qualified customers free gifts, discounts and upgrade eligibility every 12 months, among other perks. New Everything Plus customers will qualify for Sprint Premier after they have been a Sprint customer for 6 months and have maintained, for at least 3 months, a minimum monthly recurring charge of $69.99 on a single line or $99.99 on a family/share plan. For more information on Sprint Premier, click here.
But you automatically get an upgrade every 12 months with the referral program whether you spend the $69.99 or not.
How frequently can I upgrade my device?
Everything Plus customers are part of Sprint's New For You program and qualify for a discount after only 12 months. The amount of the discount depends on the length of your contract and the number of months you have had your current device. For more information on the New for You program, click here.
Like I said, the program details are on the webpage.
(for the record, as an employee I pay MORE for some phones than people off the street. And I can't even buy the Epic or Evo yet because of demand. I'm giving you better than I get myself )

Quick question: I already have a line of service, but I'm going in today to get a new 2 year agreement and upgrade to the Epic. Can I use this deal?
Thanks,
-Rob

From the OP, I can also confirm it. I just tried to use this on an upgrade and no deal.

This I did not know. It was not that way with the old SERO plans. Shame I am business nice with a hefty discount.
Are you going to be around in 3 months?
I sure hope you're still around in 3 months when I'm off my Verizon contract.

This referral is good for as long as I'm employed. And it's open to all, so spread the word
And just in case Nextelian ever leaves Sprint, there's always Russ McGuire.
I doubt he's leaving anytime soon.

Everything plus is a different account type than the old sero.

Can't get "Plus" plan
Hi,
First off I'd like to express my thanks for allowing people to use your employee referral information. It's appreciated!
I went to the Sprint store (San Leandro, CA) on launch day armed with Russ's info thinking I could get the Plus plan for me and my Fiancé. The store clerk said that the "Plus" plans do not offer the Epic 4G and he could not sign me up for a "Everything data Plus" family plan. He assured me the account can be changed after the fact into a "Plus" account. Reluctantly I signed up for the regular plan after repeated assurances that the plan can be turned into a "Plus" variant further down the line.
Now how do I actually make this happen? I'm assuming it is actually possible as I thought given the nature of this forum topic. Can one of you nice Sprint people give me some advice?
Thanks!
