Sprint reached out and tells us that the link in the OP is outdated and this one https://community.sprint.com/t5/E...-p/1033393 is the newer, corrected one.
I didn't want to edit the OP but if the OP wanted to edit to have this link.. that would be great.

so should we be switching over to swac or sero or is there anything better out now that would blow both out of the water?

maybe a verizon plan has a stronger network and may be worth it but might cost more and doesn't include tidal inside the bundle.

The only deal slicker than a Sprint deal is anything from any other carrier. A landline with a rotary phone is better service than Sprint.

It really depends on what you want. Do you want Prime, extra hotspot data, unlimited Mexico and Canada, and higher throttling limit, for another $20 a month? There is also talk of a $20 Uber credit a month for a year but it hasn't been confirmed in this thread yet whether it is still an option. I'm most likely going to go with the $30 plan as I have Prime through my nephew, don't care about Mexico or Canada, don't take Uber that often, and don't use more than 50gb a month anyway.

I moved to Tmo couple of years ago and amassed a few good promo offers where my net price is just under $10/line if using <2gb or just under $20 for unlimited, Sprint didn't want to budge on their $30/line so I budged awayWink I had no issues with Sprint SERO $30 nor have any issues with Tmo, the value in SERO evaporated imho maybe it's still there for a single line only but then again there is Mint Mo. Hope you find something suitable.

No way SERO is still worth it IMO unless you are raping data.

Gave up SERO years ago. I think my last phone on it was an HTC Windows Mobile 6 slider phone that I put Android on, lol

I submitted an app via the link and have an incident number on Thursday claiming awaitn Rep to contact me. I'm debating should I wait further or simply send email as you have for the switch to execute faster.
