I currently am on sprint sero plan $30 a month $7 TEP and 24% discount total is $34 a month after taxes. just a background of what i have now...
I want to upgrade to a blackberry for push email and the black berry curve because my work requires me to answer my emails faster than i have been answering them so i believe this would help a great deal...
Ive been looking around and the cheapest deal i found was the Sprint Sero plus plan for 59.99 for 500 min + unlimited everything else..
anyone know any better deals out there i can snag? Verizon and at&t go for alot more with alot less features. Tmobile doesnt work right in my area. (new jersey). i think that sums it up, if anyone else has any other ideas please shed some light. thanks sders!:)
in addition my brother and sister might be interested if the price is right.. I told them itd be 124.98 for all three of us with blackberries.. they said the price was still too high coming at 41.66 per phone
Does anyone know if i consolidate my brothers and sisters plan into a family plan would it cost anything with the ETF? In the store it says upgrade or downgrade to any plan free of charge but this is kinda pushing it.. no? also if i have the employee discount on sero and they switch it to the $124.98 plan will i be able to keep my employee discount? what would be the best way of going about this?
what is the price of the actual bberry device on sprint? because right now verizon is running a 2 for 1 bb curve deal. you can ask sprint to at least pricematch the cost of the phone - a friend of mine did that, said that sprint didnt even bat an eyelash at pm'ing.
other than that, the sprint everything plus plan is probably the cheapest out there,. $41/mth for a bbery with everything is pretty decent pricing.

Thanks for the heads up on the bb curve with verizon. The price of the bb curve is $99 per phone. this is actually pretty decent already..

Does this depend on zip code? I don't see it.

Could you let me know how it works out? If internet works or do you have to install opera browser to browse the internet?
Thanks

Check out Best Buy, they have the Blackberry Curve 8330 for Sprint on Sale for $49.99 this week. I'm thinking about going to get one today.

Can you get the 59.95 SERO plan at bestbuy?

I just upgraded myself to a blackberry curve on the $30 sero plan. All you have to do is get them to send you service books...once you they have done that you'll be in good shape! But finding a rep to send you the service book is the key!!!
Good luck!

No, You need to do it online. I have even had some of the normal reps get an attitude when mentioning SERO. There is a # to call to speak directly to the SERO Department but I dont know if they will let you sign up for a new account using the ole russ.s.mcguire@sprint.com e-mail address. You can still use that addy for signing up online with the CID # 383. If you haven't signed up as of yet see if you can find someone wanting to get out of their old SERO plan and do a transfer of liability over to you.
