They are not the same fee. Previously it was $10 for "premium" phones. Now its $10 for all smartphones.

TEP is an add-on. You are welcome to cancel it at any time. It has nothing to do with your service contract with Sprint.

True it was called "Premium" fee when the EVO 4G first came out, but it is not 2 different fees that are charged. Naming aside, there are not 2 $10 fees on accounts.

I have a similar story, but the second device I received was functional. My phone was a warranty replacement and I was treated no differently than someone who didn't have teh insurance.
