if i stream 150gb/month of netflix on my phone...not tethering.. with sprint... for 4 months... it is unlimited!
will they cancel my contract???
There is no way to really know that for sure.
Excessive roaming..yes it's been proven can result in contract term..
Stealing Hot Spot...yes it has been proven can result in contract term (and despite popular belief..is traceable on at least Sprint and ATT. I've been hit with warning letters on both)
In the case above, regardless of his justification..he was stealing services he was not paying for in my opinion.

whoa!! just spreading the news
Yeah, we do laugh and have tons of fun here...this is the same site where i learned to how to root.. and now everyone is all "your a bad guy" is this site managed my sprint employees? I feel like i have found a whole new world of people here.. what is necro'd, infraction, and how in the world do you get 30,000 post.. that's crazier than 150gb... and does anyone here laugh
Seriously 150 gb? Hell ATT internet caps you at 150.
Sprint just cancelled my family plan cause i rooted my evo and used wifi teather.. given sprint didn't know that, they just seen my data jump to 150gB a month for 3 months and made assumptions.. what it was is netflix :-D i would just stream movies all day while i did homework... I payed for unlimited data and wasn't using 5gB in the beginning but then Sprint decided THEY wanted new charges of $10/phone saying "well, you have a smart phone so we want more money".. i had 4 phones on my plan so $40 in new charges for being a regular user.. so i rooted and got my moneys worth out of it So they are not "truly unlimited data" that's just non-sense gimmicks to sucker customers... if you don't believe me, test me.. don't teather your phone just stream netflix as much as possible (6+ hours/day) .. they'll cancel your service too... I'm actually glad to get away from sprint cause they never have the cool phones.. no LTE service (except Texas) even though they sell LTE phones.. so your buying LTE phones that can only use 3g :-( it's like buying a race car with no tires (waste of money)... And while i'm at it, whats the point of LTE if you cant use it?? ..."you can download faster, stream faster, everything faster but [small print] you can only stream 1 movie a month"... again, it's like having the race car but can't leave the drive way... limits, limits, limits

like you haven't pirated mp3's
so you guys are saying its ok for a company to add more to your bill, with out your consent, without your knowledge and tell you "your under contract" when you tell them your dissatisfied... And i didnt even use the unlimited data (maybe 5gb) until they upped my bill.. So when i fight back its wrong?? I cant rack up 30,000 post defending myself against all you guys but the thread was titled "whats soo good about sprint".. And the point is they're not... No lte (except texas and chicago), up your bill when they cant make their stock holders happy... And did you really pull a christen card on me "but what we don't like...is piracy and dishonesty." seriously?? This site didnt encourage me but had no problem explicitly showing me how.. That make you accomplice if your gonna go all "im better than you" on me.. Like you haven't pirated mp3's and your late night dirty movies... But you can cast the first stone.. So you guys would side against anonymous for standing up for themselves and fighting back... I diffidently see things different from you guys... If your trying to say i'm wrong cause your forum is vulnerable to lawsuits then i understand but to say its ok for a larger entity to push people around isn't right either... I know you guys will all jump on the band wagon and post well thought out condemnations but will some one inform me on the lingo, troll, necro'd, and how do you net an infraction (charge more to my bill )
First thing, I wasn't implying that you per sey is doing the above mentioned.so you guys are saying its ok for a company to add more to your bill, with out your consent, without your knowledge and tell you "your under contract" when you tell them your dissatisfied... and i didnt even use the unlimited data (maybe 5gb) until they upped my bill.. so when i fight back its wrong??
