of the inquiry of Ms*** *** regarding her Sprint account. We appreciate your assistance in bringing our customer’s concerns to our attention. According to the information provided, Ms*** expressed her dissatisfaction with not receiving the promotional offer that was quoted at the point of sale when her husband upgraded his equipmentShe stated that he was advised that by upgrading his device and accepting a new device for an additional line of service, their charges would be approximately $169; however, she has received invoices of over $for the past five months and she has been unable to resolve this matter with the store manager. Therefore, she requested further assistance. We spoke with Ms***, and reached a mutual resolution for her concerns. We advised her that we regret any misunderstanding that may have occurred regarding the details of the monthly charges with her husband’s new equipment and the new line of service he accepted. We agreed to accept the return of her Samsung Jdevice in exchange for the waiver of the corresponding equipment fees that will be assessed upon cancelation of that line. To facilitate her return within the next days, we mailed a prepaid UPS package to her address on file. Ms*** stated that she is satisfied with this resolution If I may be of further assistance with this matter, I can be reached by calling the Executive and Regulatory Services Department toll-free at ###-###-####, ext***.

Sprint has reviewed Ms***’s complaintWe are aware that on occasion customers may experience extended hold times when contacting our Customer care group by phone, due to various factors. Although we have streamlined our internal processes, to maintain our commitment to world-class customer service, we offer various automated services that allow customers to avoid waiting to speak to a representative.

As outlined in our Terms and Conditions, the coverage and quality of wireless services may be affected by conditions beyond our control.

August 9, 2017 Revdex.comWard Parkway, Suite 401Kansas City, MO 64114 Re: Revdex.com Inquiry ***, *** *** Sprint Account xxxxx*** Sprint Case *** To Whom It May
Concern: Sprint is in receipt of the above-referenced inquiry filed with your office by Ms*** ***. We appreciate your assistance in bringing her concerns to our attention. In her complaint, Ms*** states that she felt pressured into purchasing two device cases when she recently established Sprint service, and although she was told the cases would be reduced to $each, she was charged $per case. She further states that she had second thoughts about the case purchases and attempted to return both within days of purchase; however, the store refused to accept the return. Ms*** is requesting that Sprint either refund her for the full purchase price of both cases or apply an account credit for the difference in the price quoted and what was actually assessed. We had the pleasure of speaking with Ms*** on July 28, 2017, and extended an apology for any frustration this matter may have caused. Her device upgrade took place at an authorized third-party retailer and while Sprint offers a 14-day Satisfaction Guarantee return policy on all of our products, third-party retailers may have additional conditions for returns. To address Ms***’ immediate concern, we offered to apply a $account credit, which represents the $difference in the price she states she was quoted for the cases and the price she was actually charged. Ms*** accepted our offer. As a result, the noted account credit was applied on July 28, 2017, and Ms*** confirmed that her concerns have now been satisfactorily resolved. We assure Ms*** that Sprint has no higher priority than its customers and appreciate her for taking the time to provide us with the details of her experience with our third-party retailer. The telecommunications industry is extremely competitive and we realize that the quality of products and the level of customer service we provide will define our success. Ms***’ feedback will be shared with the appropriate managerial staff, and our hope is that she will allow us the opportunity to rebuild her faith in Sprint. We regret any inconvenience that Ms*** may have experienced and appreciate her business. In the event that additional assistance is needed, I can be reached toll-free at ###-###-####, ext***.

Although he elected not to utilize the service following his cancellation request, the service was available, and the full monthly service charge is valid. We regret that this may not have been explained to him; however, this information is provided in our Terms and Conditions of Services Although we were unable to identify a Sprint billing error, in an effort to amicably resolve this matter, we offered to follow up with Mr*** after his account is closed on November 4, 2017, and the final invoice generates. We extended an offer to prorate the monthly charges contingent upon the phones not being used after October 13, 2017. Mr*** accepted the offer and asked for a follow up email.

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to meHowever, the representative fails to point out that they did make a mistake, which I would like to make clearThey blamed the entire issues on PayPal without accepting any responsibility for the following: The agent told me on the phone that my order was indeed cancelled, and provided me with a cancellation number to prove soThe fact that the order was not cancelled had nothing to do with PayPal or my method of payment, that was entirely on Virgin Mobile. When speaking to the representative from Sprint, she stated that to her knowledge an order can NOT be canceled once placed, it can only be canceled by shipping back the device once receivedThroughout all of my experience contacting various representatives within this company, no one seems to have a grasp on what their actual policy is, and how their operations normally function. I am only accepting this resolution because it is the only offer they would give me, and I don't want to waste any more of my time trying to ask for moreI believe that I deserve more than they are willing to offer, however it is not worth my time.

July 13, Revdex.com Ward Parkway, Suite Kansas City, MO Re: Revdex.com Inquiry ***, *** *** Sprint Account xxxxx*** Sprint Case *** To Whom It May Concern: Sprint is in receipt of the inquiry filed with your office by Mr*** ***. We appreciate the opportunity to address his concerns. Based on the information provided, Mr*** advises that he started experiencing problems with his phone about three weeks after purchase. He further states that the store would not repair or replace the device, and he was referred to the manufacturer for assistance. He further advises that he believes the manufacturer overcharged him for repairs, and he is requesting that Samsung provide a refund of $70.31. He also stated that he believes Sprint should provide a refund for the payments he has remitted for his phone All new Sprint devices and/or Mobile Broadband devices come with a limited one-year manufacturer’s warranty. Sprint customers are also given the option to subscribe to our Total Equipment Protection (TEP) option within the first days of activating a new device on their phone line. TEP provides Sprint customers with a cost efficient way to protect themselves against loss, damage, and wear and tear to their device that is not covered under the provisions of the limited one-year manufacturer’s warranty. We contacted Mr*** on July 11, 2017, to discuss his equipment concerns. We explained to him that because he does not subscribe to TEP on phone ***, if he is experiencing a problem with his device he may visit his local Sprint service and repair center for diagnostic testing. At that time, if it is determined to have a manufacturer’s defect, and is still within the limited one-year manufacturer warranty period, he may send the defective device directly to the manufacturer for repair and/or replacement under the provisions of the manufacturer’s limited one-year warranty. Mr*** is responsible for shipping costs and may incur additional costs if the manufacturer determines the device issue is not covered by their manufacturer’s warranty. During our discussion, Mr*** confirmed that he received his repaired phone back from Samsung, and a refund of $70.31. Although we were unable to identify a Sprint error regarding this matter, in appreciation of Mr***’s continued patronage, we applied a one-time credit to his account equivalent to one monthly plan charge. We must respectfully decline his request to refund his equipment payments. If Mr*** needs further assistance, he can contact the Executive & Regulatory Services department toll-free at ###-###-####, ext***.

June 7, Revdex.com Ward Parkway, Suite Kansas City, MO Re: Revdex.com Case *** Sprint Account XXXXXX***, *** *** Sprint Case ***
To Whom It May Concern: Sprint is in receipt of the above-referenced complaint of Ms*** ***. We appreciate your assistance in bringing our customers’ concerns to our attention According to the information received, Ms*** stated that in February 2017, she contacted our Customer Care department to inquire about our Unlimited Freedom plan. She stated that the representative advised her that this plan would be the best option for her. She stated the representative went over what her monthly charges would be and she agreed to the plan change. She stated that the first invoice after she changed her plan was correct, however, on the second invoice after the plan change, she was charged a subsidized phone charge on two of her telephone numbers which she was not informed of. She stated that her intent was to lower her monthly costs when she made the plan change and believed that with the information the representative provided her that is what would occur. She stated she has contacted our Customer Care multiple times and has been unsuccessful in getting assistance with this matter. She is requesting a resolution to this issue We regret any misunderstanding that may have occurred regarding Sprint’s billing practices, specifically regarding the $Subsidized Phone Charge. However, the price plan Ms*** selected, stipulates that customers who elect to purchase devices at subsidized pricing with the acceptance of a two-year Service Agreement are assessed a $Subsidized Phone charge per line/per month, pursuant to the terms associated with the selected price planPlease be advised that customers who purchase devices via our Monthly Installment or Lease options are not assessed this fee. Additional details regarding our price plans and the associated Subsidized Phone Charges is available on our website, www.sprint.com/plans Our records reflect that Ms***’s service plan was changed back to her previous plan, therefore, she will no longer be charged a Subsidized Phone Charge. In addition, a credit adjustment was made for the subsidized phone charges that were assessed to her account Ms*** notified us via email on June 6, 2017, advising that the issue was previously resolved to her satisfaction We regret any inconvenience these matters may have caused. If we can be of further assistance, we can be reached at the Executive & Regulatory Services department toll-fee at ###-###-####, extension ***.

Concern: Sprint is in receipt of the inquiry of Ms*** *** regarding her Sprint account. We appreciate your assistance in bringing our customers concerns’ to our attention. According to the information provided, Ms*** stated that when she added two new lines of service on her account she was advised by our retail store representative that she was eligible to receive a $monthly discount for each subscription if she signed up for automatic payment. Further, she stated that she has not received the promotional credits although she signed up for automatic payment. As a result, she is requesting that we honor the offer she states she was offered at the point of sale. In our effort to provide clear communication about our devices, features, promotions and pricing, Sprint publishes an overview and our retail brochures, displays, partner stores, and web site at www.sprint.com have not deviated from the published information. In our continued efforts to provide all of our customers with the best pricing possible, we cannot fulfill any verbal offers that deviate from the formal and approved published device and/or service plan pricing. As stated in the terms of the Sprint Unlimited Freedom Plan, discount applies when customer is signed up for e-bill and autopay Upon upgrading her devices and adding her two new phone numbers, Ms*** was provided with a clear disclosure of her monthly recurring charges and all other applicable fees and chargesFurthermore, we were able to locate signed copies of her electronic service agreement which includes a description of her service planBased on our review, we were unable to identify any miscommunication regarding the terms of her plan or other monthly charges on Sprint’s part during her recent purchase. During our conversation with Ms***, we advised her of the above information. In addition, we informed her that our records reflect that she elected our competitors percent off promotion that is already heavily discounted. Further, we advised her that the promotion to receive a $monthly discount for each subscription when subscribed to automatic payment is our Unlimited Freedom Plan. We advised Ms*** that although we are unable to honor any verbal offers, in an effort to amicably resolve her inquiry we agreed to apply a one-time courtesy credit of $to her account. Ms*** accepted the offer and is satisfied with the resolution We appreciate Ms***’s taking the time to provide us with the details of her customer service experience. We regret that the level of service she received was not indicative of the world-class service we strive to provide. The feedback she provided has been forwarded to the appropriate management staff for further review.

Sprint Case ***
Dear Ms***:
Sprint is in receipt of the above-referenced complaint of Ms*** ***We appreciate your
assistance in bringing our customers’ concerns to our attentionMs*** has requested clarification regarding Sprint’s device unlocking policies regarding an Apple iPhone purchased in December 2014, and activated on Sprint's networkMs*** has indicated that she would like the device unlocked
Unlocking a device is a general term that refers to one or more types of device unlockingMSL unlocking refers to providing an MSL code in order to disable software that sets device parameters and prevents the device from activation on a different networkUnlocking also refers to enabling the SIM slot of the device to allow another carrier’s SIM card to be inserted (either domestically or internationally)Unlocking a device will not necessarily make a device interoperable with another carrier’s networkIn other words, a device designed for one network is not made technologically compatible with another network merely by unlocking itAdditionally, unlocking a device may enable some functionality of the device but not all (e.g., an unlocked device may support voice services but not data services when activated on a different network)Additional information about unlocking may be found at www.sprint.com/unlock
Sprint will unlock a device under the following circumstances:
- Any associated service agreement, Installment Billing Agreement, or Lease Agreement has been fulfilled, including payment in full of any applicable Early Termination Fees or end-of-lease/installment billing purchase options
- The associated account is in good standing
- The device has not been reported as lost or stolen, associated with fraudulent activity, or otherwise flagged as ineligible to be unlocked
We confirmed that Ms***’s Apple iPhone associated with phone number ending in *** is eligible for SIM unlockingPlease note that the SIM unlock information was transmitted to the device in question on February 8,
We appreciate Ms*** taking time to provide details of her experience with our customer service representativesWe are continually striving to improve the quality of service provided to our customersPlease be assured that we value customer feedback and that her concerns will be forwarded to the appropriate managerial staff for further review
