Vacation Plan

What is a vacation plan? Will the phone call forward when on this plan or
does a caller get a Sprint PCS message saying the phone is not in service?

I was asking if it existed with sprint, some one else had suggested it
might--

Some time ago, with verizon (gte) you could call, ask that a current
service be temporarily suspended, for a monthly charge, I believe $10
month, indefinitely--I used it when I wanted to try another service
plan, etc--could call c/s and have it reactivated within just
minutes--same phone number etc--very handy, at times--it seemed
reasonable, in that if you wanted to go turn the phone back on, there
was no argument with them, you knew up front what the deal was--verizon
no longer offers this, to best of my knowledge.

No. The phone number is still active, and they call it, just like=20
you're on a regular plan. But, if you answer, it's $1.00/min. Each and=20
every minute. No included minutes.

Is it correct that the vacation period does *not* satisfy your
Advantage Agreement? That if you had six months left on your Advantage
Agreement and went on Vacation Plan for six months, then you would still
have six months left to satisfy your Advantage Agreement?

That's how it's *supposed* to work. But we reps have to set it up=20
right. If we don't, then yeah, a customer can simply cancel after a=20
little while.
