Sprint Running Early Upgrade Buyout Program
Sprint is planning on initiating a program for customers to buy out their current contract by paying a fee in exchange for an early upgrade. The program effectively resets their early upgrade eligibility and with the applicable Upgrade Now fee, customers will also have to commit to another 2 year contract. The program will run from 2/12/12 to 04/14/12. Details after the break.
Non-eligible customers:
- Customers that have upgraded less than eight (8) months ago
- Corporate Accounts
- Customers in collections
- Airave and tablet accounts
- iDEN devices
The fee will be based upon the remaining term of the customer’s account.
Customers that have upgraded devices between 9-11 months ago would have an early upgrade fee of $165.
Customers that have upgraded between 12-14 months ago will have an early upgrade fee of $125.
Customers that have upgraded between 15-17 months ago will have an early upgrade fee of $95.
Customers that have upgraded between 18-21 months ago will have an early upgrade fee of $55, with anything beyond that period simply incurring the standard $36 upgrade fee.
This is surely good news for Sprint users!
