With any material change when it comes to wireless companies, it's almost expected that the other carriers will follow suit. Case in point: Verizon's decision to raise their ETF (early termination fee) to $350 for smartphones and other "high-end" devices. Within minutes of the announcement, Twitter and technology websites were buzzing about whether other carriers would pursue the same policy.

In a tweet (http://twitter.com/sprint/status/5460241843) from Sprint's official account today (seen in the picture above), the carrier confirmed that they aren't planning to make changes to their early termination fee. So, that's one down, two more to go (AT&T, T-Mobile). Anyone care to speculate on which direction they'll go?

hahaha sprint says that now but i wonder how long it will take them to change that..... they will try to draw people in with that and than have it for a limited time only or somethign to just draw customers in like you would too a rat with a piece of cheese.

I am with Dash on that one, i think it's just a matter of tiime. But then maybe they are trying to head in a different direction besides bankruptcy, lol

hahaha aint that the truth, but hell we may never know... it could be the thing that saves them bu with all that they are offering right now to bring in customers they wont be able to offer that forever so something in my opinion has to go...
