not always true. you can upgrade and keep your plan.i upgraded to the tp2 which i got for free.. Kept my unlimited data for 5 buck my unlimited text and mms for 7. as well as 2 lines for 89.99 a month. With 1500 minutes .People can say what ever about the ones who call retentions. bottom line is retentions and escalation reps seem to be the only ones at sprint who care about the little people. I wasn't even eligible for my 2yr savings. they hooked me up nice. plus free airave and monthly service for it as well. idk hero never appealed to me...same as crackberrys. i guess i lucked out that way. its strange how best phone on us market will run on any plan...lol although at one point they did try the your phone wont work on 5 dollar data you need 30 dollar data. i insisted to leave as i had no issues and they did... Plus 10% off over all bill....Sprints is like that ex girl friend whos heart you break....there *****es at first...talk sweet to em and you can get anything you want again....
p.s the 200 dollar early termination fee is different as of november of last yr. its pro rated. so it goes down the longer you have your plan...
