Its yo boi Hu$tler, always imitated but never duplicated, bringing you the best hustle of the week! For those looking for the ultimate cheapest iPhone 4S plan, it may be possible to get on the Sprint SERO-P plan for $50 a month. This individual plan with 500 minutes, unlimited any mobile to mobile, nights starting at 7pm, unlimited text, and unlimited data for $30 a month + $10 Premium + $10 High Data = $50 a month plan. With this Sprint plan, you can get any Android, iPhone, or Blackberry phones available on the SERO Premium plan for $50 a month. This hustle is very YMMV which means your mileage may vary, and very very time consuming. You may need to call 10 to 20 times before you find a CSR that willing to help you.

Follow the Hustle:

1. Sign up for Sprint SERP individual plan: http://delivery.sprint.com/m/p/nxt/epc/epclanding.asp
   with e-mail address: Russ.S.McGuire@sprint.com and last 3 digits of employee ID (CID): 383
2. Sign up for any individual EPRP plan(the cheapest is the Everything Plus Messaging Plan for $39.99), then you can proceed to the next step.
3. Try Chat Service: Go to sprint.com, log into account, and hit the chat button. Tell them you want to change your plan to SERO-P with Premium Data with plan code FF1077 or PDS1999PW
4. Try Calling: If chatting doesn’t work, call this number 888-876-8381. Do not speak to Telesales, as they can’t help you. Speak to Employees Account Representatives only. Do the same thing from step 3 and ask for switching to SERO-P plan.
5. Try Emailing: email everythingreferral@sprint.com with your account details (e.g. your account # or phone #) and the request to migrate to SERO Premium.

You have two weeks to get this done when you sign up for a new plan with Sprint policy(can return your phone plan at no cost). I would do step 4 over and over again until you can find a CSR to help you upgrading to SERO-P. Again, if they can’t help you, thank them, and call back again. Keep doing it because there are many success stories. If you manage to get this to work, comment below and share your experience to help HMB readers.

The GOLD DELTA SKYMILES Credit Card by American Express is offering 30,000 bonus miles after $500 in purchases within the first 3 months. The 30,000 miles is more than enough for a free full round-trip flight ticket in the continental U.S. Also, the annual fee of $95 is waived for the first year. As an added perk, you get your first bag checked in for free for up to 9 tickets that are paid with your card- a roundtrip savings of $50 per person.

Lets take a walk down memory lane with Sprint ever since the EVO was released.

• First, there was a $10 for premium data on “Premium” phones.
• Second, no employee discounts for the additional lines.
• Then the annual upgrades were gone.
• Next, the $10 premium data on all 3G phones.
• Again with some maintenance Fees increased to $2.

Sprint is back at it again with their nickel and dime method. Apparently, starting February 1st, 2012, they will increase your bill by almost $5 with Family and Business Share monthly plan for those with a corporate discount. They will change Line 2 into applicable Add-a-Phone rate and will not be discount eligible. Discounts will only apply to the monthly recurring charge of the primary line.

Here’s the Math breakdown:

Current Policy: L1 + L2 = $129.99 – 25% discount = $97.50

New Policy: L1 $110 – 25% discount + L2 $19.99 = $102.50

Hence, your rates just went up by $5 each month!

You will have 30 days to cancel your lines without paying the Early Termination Fees. However, you could also negotiate and get freebies such as service credit to offset this fee or full upgrade on your phones if you don’t want to cancel. The easiest way to take care of this is talk to Sprint Executive Office to cancel.

Follow these steps:

1. Call (866) 727-0665 and ask for Executive Office
2. or Call *2 Cancel or 1-800-927-2199 which handles customers receiving corporate discounts on their accounts.
3. or Call Sprint’s Consumerist Hotline (703-433-4401)
4. Tell them there is a Material Adverse Change with the new policy and you want to cancel your lines without paying ETF.

If you want to negotiate, then call customer service and ask for Account Services(retention department).

When You Don’t Have To Pay An Early Termination Fee
You aren’t responsible for paying an Early Termination Fee when terminating Services: (a) provided on a month-to-month basis; (b) consistent with our published trial period return policy; or (c) in response to a materially adverse change we make to the Agreement as described directly below.

Our Right To Change The Agreement & Your Related Rights
We may change any part of the Agreement at any time, including, but not limited to, rates, charges, how we calculate charges, or your terms of Service. We will provide you notice of material changes—and may provide you notice of non-material changes—in a manner consistent with this Agreement (see “Providing Notice To Each Other Under The Agreement” section). If a change we make to the Agreement is material and has a material adverse effect on Services under your Term Commitment, you may terminate each line of Service materially affected without incurring an Early Termination Fee only if you: (a) call us within 30 days after the effective date of the change; and (b) specifically advise us that you wish to cancel Services because of a material change to the Agreement that we have made. If you do not cancel Service within 30 days of the change, an Early Termination Fee will apply if you terminate Services before the end of any applicable Term Commitment.

Everyone is looking for ways to save money with the iPhone 4S. With the increasing amount of time we spend on our smartphones, texting, and surfing the internet, our phone bills are continuing to skyrocket as well. There may now be a way to remedy this with a special plan for the iPhone 4s. The Sprint “Everything Plus Referral Program”, originally meant for friends and family of Sprint employees, has now been opened up to anyone. One of Sprint’s executives, Russ McGuire, has offered to act as a referral for anyone interested in enrolling in a plan for their iphone. All you need to do is sign up online via Sprint’s website and provide the employee email address russ.s.mcguire@sprint.com and the last 3 digits of their employee ID number 383

How to Sign-Up for cheapest Sprint iPhone 4s plan:

1. Visit Sprint EPRP Website
2. Enter E-Mail: russ.s.mcguire@sprint.com and last 3 of Employee ID (CID): 383
3. Select individual plan as low as $69.99 or family plan $109.99 for two + $14.99 Add a line.

The most inexpensive option for monthly plans, including unlimited data and text, with Sprint is $59.99. However, there is also a $10 monthly charge for premium phones, which includes iphones and other smartphones. When included with the monthly plan, that brings the total bill to $69.99 — a steal for anyone looking for unlimited minutes to any carriers, unlimited data and text. For me, I have 5 lines with the EPRP family plan and it works out to be around $50 for each phone line.

If you are already in a contract with Sprint or another phone carrier, speak with them to see if you can apply this discount or other discounts to your existing plan. If not, revisit these as your contract is about to expire. Depending on your plan, you can save up to $840 per year! Learn more about this and other great offers from Sprint. You can even get 5% cashback by paying your phone bill with the Amex SimplyCash card!

I’ve been with Sprint for over 10 years, and I can tell you almost every Sprint bonuses there are. Unfortunately, they have ended that gravy train and only few are available. However, if you have the full $150 upgrade credit, I would get the $75 renewal service credit first.
