What is the best EVO bargain when switching to Sprint?

My local Sprint store claims they will give me 25% off the monthly rate, and Sprint.com is offering me $50 credit using the SAVE50 code when starting new service at a Sprint store. I will be porting a number from Verizon. So even though I have pre-ordered the EVO from RS, I am going to buy from the Sprint store. What am I missing? Can I get a better deal? Thanks! Eagerly waiting June 4.

Where is your local Sprint store, and do all stores offer this?

25% off the monthly rate? how so? Is it in writing?

They have many discounts. Many through other corporate businesses. You can also get them through being a college student and having an account in a credit union, which both are 15% off.

I'm so glad my girlfriend gets 23% from the hospital she works at.
 
I too am getting a 20% discount on service because of where I work. Check with your sprint store or representative. I called and got the discount code so I can have it applied from the start of my service with them.

One caveat on that, it does not apply to the $99 everything plan. They consider this a deal already and will not apply the discount. If you select one of the lesser voice plans (450 minutes or 900 minutes, and still get unlimited web/data/text) THEN you get the discount.

No, not in writing, just over the phone. That is why I described it as "claims." But several others in this forum are getting a deal like that from a Sprint store in Florida. That store is offering a better deal than this.

You can also get either a Bluetooth headset or car charger+holster with the corporate discount along with $25-50 off the price of the phone.

i think this is only for NEW lines of service as opposed to existing through the corporate sale dept of your company

When will you know you are actually getting the discount if you don't have it in writing? Thanks
 
If you go through Radioshack with the $50 pre-order, you get the $20 off accessories and don't have to wait for the rebate. It's $199 at the counter instead of $299 and wait 10-14 weeks for the rebate.
