Roaming Question

Can someone explain to me how roaming works with sprint.. some plans charge roaming and some plans don't?.... Is that different for an affiliate market? I am a new to the sprint family and have always had Verizon and i have not heard the word "roaming" for years..... How come Verizon never roams?

Phones that check email

Are there any phones ( non smartphone type ), that have an email client that could check emails periodically like the treos do.
There are some 3rd party apps or services like emoze, that allow "push" type email on these phones. Any experts out there ??

NO COMM. ANYMORE

I have friends who work at a corp. store in the Northeast and there in test area where reps aren't getting paid commission just a straight salary. So they take there old salary plus what the target commission dollars would be plus a bonus depending on how long you have worked for Sprint and thats your base. so for example 25,000(salary) 14600(commision) plus 9,000 (bonus) making it 48,600. Anyone else heard of this, Like i said its in a trial market to let customers know that the reps are there to help not make money.

Affiliate markets

Why have these, they're just a pain in my butt, I try to help a customer upgrade their phone, but because of an affiliate market for me to do it, I have to cancel their current line, and run credit again in my market, and set them up with a new acct. Or lose the sale and send them to corporate. Fun stuff. It's almost as bad as Corporate ensemble accounts!!

iPhone numbers

From RCR's "Worst of the Week"-


Hello!

And welcome to our Thursday column, Worst of the Week. There's a lot of nutty stuff that goes on in this industry, so this column is a chance for us at RCR to rant and rave about whatever rubs us the wrong way. We hope you enjoy it!

And without further ado:

So, in case you have been living under a rock (which I would think would be very uncomfortable), avoiding all forms of mass media (also a difficult proposition), or living on the Island of Misfit Mascots Commune, you might have heard that Apple Inc. is planning to launch something called an iPhone next week. (I know that spelling might seem weird, but trust me, that is how they spell it.)

Anyways, this device has stirred up ...

Well that's just dandy

Both my EDRP and Advantage club lines have been suspended. Damn you enhanced wireless! I had one week left before I could reapply, one week!

Confused Sprint Rep

I am a 3rd party sprint rep, so I am always confused but... I had a customer return a Katana because she said Nextel customer service was sending her a Katana that would work on her Dad's Nextel family plan.

I thought Nextel only carried Motorola???

More Iphone Rip-off-age?

I haven't had a lot of time to poke around on the internet at home lately, has anyone seen any more Iphone wanna-be's like the LG Prada or that Samsung smart phone with the slider pads. And if so are any of them bound for CDMA? I could care less but I get about 4 customers a day asking what we will have to compete with the iphone and the 6800 doesn't really please the style conscious house wife who thinks a stylus is a fashion mag she is missing out on.

*sigh*

I was going through the pages of You Tube and came across the old school Sprint commercials.

They were quite clever in their hay day. I'm still waiting to see the results of what Sprint's new ad agency has to offer.

new message icon

this was actually a problem on my sanyo, too, but fixed easy with a reboot.

my lg is displaying the new vmail icon so i checked my voicemail. no new messages so i go through the saved messages, delete them all, it's still there. i power cycled the phone, it's still there. i even tried stuff that's totally not related like updating my power vision, it's still there.

how do i get rid of it?!?

sim chips

I've been with Sprint for about 10 years and every year or two get a new phone and inevitably miss somethings about my old one.

If you are with verizon, tmobil, and att, is it really as simple as pulling a little chip out of the back of one phone and placing it in the other so that you can have one phone during the day and another at night or on the weekends?

Is there a reason Sprint can't or won't go to this feature now or in the future?
