    Sprint doesn't pro-rate the ETF fee like other carriers, fearing even
    more subscriber losses if they do so.

    However on January 1, 2009 Sprint is raising fees on existing contracts,
    allowing subscribers to leave without paying an ETF fee.

    If you've been patiently waiting for your contract to end before leaving
    Sprnt, this is your chance. Of course Sprint could simply agree to not
    charge you the increased fees until the end of your contract, but you
    can try your luck like this guy did:

    With Verizon, when they've changed the terms of the contract, they send
    out a letter informing subscribers of their right to cancel with no ETF.
    Obviously Sprint doesn't do this.

    Yes they do and have been for a while. Where have you been?

    Obviously, they do. But having never used the product, you wouldn't know ,
    would you?

    Why don't you try sticking to things you actually have direct knowledge
    about.
