Hey guys, in my "inability" to study for a final tomorrow, I was checking my eligibility for an upgrade and saw this --

June 6? What do you guys make of it? Just a coincidence, or am I gonna get screwed out of my upgrade before I can get my Evo?

I'm eligible for an upgrade on 6-01-10, so hopefully thats not the case for me...i tried checking my sprint account right now but it says it's down...i'll try checking tomorrow, but i really hope you don't get screwed out of ur upgrade because that would suck.

I have no idea... I've had an upgrade for a long time now... But that date is new to me. I might have missed it in the past, but that seems a little strange to me. Perhaps because I'm on a weird plan? Is anyone else getting this message, or just me?

i tried chcking but the stupid sprint site is down. i don't recall seeing those TOS on my account page. but i'm a SERO member... will soon swap to EPRP for EVO
 
Uh oh mine says this...

"Offer details:

*Non-online orders: $18 activation fee per upgrade may apply.
Program expires June 6, 2010
**Does not apply to Sprint Relay, SERO and Nextel Direct Connect Custom Plan customers."

im a little worried now. But that's kind of dumb...They're only giving me 5 days to upgrade?

i get the same date from that link. dunno what june6th means...

also if i login through the new layout, i've never seen that june 6th date before
 
as much as i hate to say... it's stupid for them to block up upgraders for that phone. they will loose so many customers. i think that date is referring to something else

I really hope you're right. I'm gonna give them a call tomorrow and i'll let you guys know what they tell me.

As do I. That would make little sense to not allow upgrades.. Perhaps they're adding a change to the upgrade status, or pricing? I'm sure that information will be released along with other info on May 12. Lets cross our fingers and hope (and pray).
 
I think someone said before that june6th is when there pricing system resets its self, not that it really runs out then, but thats when they are supposed to get the info on the newer discount prices for phones they are selling or something like that, might be why, but it would be good to know officially what sprint says

I don't think it means anything, it'll just most likely extend.

Something similar:

Sprint.com Support:New For You Expires Sept. 1, 2008?

This thread is only place to hear it period...

Cheers, everyone..it's drink time and then I have to find my rock to crawl under

BSOD >-_O<

Blue Screen Buddy,
Thanks again for the fun, late night, processor banter and for the info you dropped on us yesterday, Major Kudos to you for that.

I hope that rock you crawled under is treating you well and you are recovering from the crunch :D
 
It appears to be a standard note for most if not all of us. I was upgrade eligible on 2/21.

I'm glad I learned this with my time in the U.S. Army, "Hurry up and wait."
 
For me it is June 5th since it is a day before I bought my Pre. The weird thing is there is a $150 discount sitting on my secondary line which was started on the same day. It's been there for a month or two for no reason. I'm not complaining but it also says my main line has a $75 discount after June 5th.

I get the feeling that somehow they screwed up my primary and secondary lines. I may have to go to a Sprint store to straighten this out before going to Best Buy to get my Evo without any rebate crap.

I mean...I would still buy an Evo if I had to pay a little more. I paid something like $400 for my Pre because I wasn't eligible for a full discount yet. If it's something I want and use on a regular basis I have no problem paying for it but I don't want to miss out on a discount due to a clerical error. Hopefully that new Dan Hesse era customer service is out in force that day and hooks me up right.

My guess is the main phone (yours) is a premier membership and hers is not. Premier can upgrade every year.. only one person can have it on the family plan.

You are correct sir... I spoke with a Sprint rep many moons ago and she said the same thing! Sorry, slept late and woke early... too much coffee :D
