I'm sure this is important to use Evo owners as we enjoy having the best phone on the market. I'm sure they'll put out Evo 2 or something similar around June or so, so I thought I'd make sure we all knew ahead of time so we can get our accounts set up. Please correct me if I'm wrong about any of this.
If you've been a Sprint customer for 10 years or more you automatically get Gold status and yearly upgrades for your primary line.
If you haven't been with Sprint for 10 years you need to have your BASE plan at $89.99 for a single line or $169.99 for shared plans averaged over a 3 month period.
I talked to a Sprint Rep about 15 minutes ago and he said I'd have to change my account to the 169 a month plan before April 1st to be eligible for the upgrade in June when I hit my year date (Evo Launch Day). He didn't sound 100% sure as it wouldn't have been 3 whole months of paying 169. The way I see it you would need to have all of March, all of April and all of May at that rate to get that average to be over 169.99 to get that upgrade in June, so I'll be playing it safe and changing my account at the very end of February.
This raises a question though: If I use my yearly upgrade from the Gold Premier does it re-up my two year contract with Sprint? I meant to ask the guy but I forgot. Does anybody have any insight on this? If it does then I'll probably just keep my account the same and buy my next phone outright and just do one year contracts after that.
If anybody has more info please reply and I'll try to add it to the first post so we can get all of the right info up here. Thanks!
