Sprint reached out and tells us that the link in the OP is outdated and this one https://community.sprint.com/t5/E...-p/1033393 is the newer, corrected one.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.

Saw that like 5 minutes after I posted.. they don't address what I asked about in my email though. I know it's supposed to be 100gb 4G LTE hotspot, but what's the 50gb Hotspot? Same question about Mexico LTE.

How do I set up my amazon prime? I'm currently on a 30 day trial I think
You will see it when you log in. It's 100GB hotspot and unlimited LTE. They do have a cheaper plan if you don't need those.

I'm not sure.....sounds like it went effective a month ago? Lol



guess they meant 4/2, which just happens to be my new billing cycle

Actually since i requested before march billing cycle ended (like 2 days before), they switched my account for that month and i overpaid with a credit of like $20 for april.

If someone has Amazon prime student (Its $59 a year), does it make any sense to get this premium plan?? No correct.

it depends. last i checked, with full blown prime you can share benefits inside the household and moms get additional discounts on baby items and diaper subscriptions. i would say no unless you really need the added 50 gb to your hopspot and you are graduating this year and want to continue with prime.

Was in Germany couple of years ago and I had data - slow
But used the hell out of it.
I also use over 100 gb from time to time.
And, I can do upgrades at Best buy. Maybe elsewhere as well.
- that took a lot of work to get working.
I also have Amazon prime
But hotspot for the kids tablets would be nice and I would like to add a wearable if possible.
what did you have to do to be able to get upgrades at Best Buy?

Can't remember much. But a rep switched a flag on the account from business to consumer or individual or something like that.

I have had Prime for a while with multiple family members on account. Now the limit is two. Doesn't anyone know if the premium option would keep the membership going to cause it to reset?

Omg lol. I was on SERO for almost 10 years... The total lack of value in it towards the end of the time (no in store phone upgrades, no workplace discounts, really odd phone # for support)... Not to mention their horrible speeds, pushed me away.

Went to tmobile, got a free sammy note 8, and plan to stay... And will probably get a free note 10 this fall.
How you getting it free?

Costco BOGO + rebate and sell one of the phones for almost full after it unlocks (which is when rebates happen to arrive too)

you referring to the T-Mo deal I assume? So not really free... you pay for 2 months of services, taxes on the phones & don't sell the 1 device for full retail either... but still a good deal...

Yahs not as good these days. Back with the note 8, I only paid $20 total for service since KickBack was still in play, but the $130 rebate + 4% back (via costco executive and citi card) covered all of the taxes.

Of all of the flagships I purchased over the years, the note 8 has been the most resistant to aging. I feel no desire to get a newer one...will only do so if its a really good deal.

I'll need to contact customer care, but after I switched over it doesn't say anything about Hulu under my plans and services.

My account got converted today. Seems like a no brainier for $20 cheaper and more add on for free.

Thanks!
