Sprint Goes to Court

By News Minder at 08/21/08 10:05

Sprint Nextel recently was brought to court over an issue that cell phone users are well aware of. That is the early termination fees that customers are forced to pay is they choose to end their plan before the contract runs out. Of course this restricted users to switch plans if the wished to do so.

I know that for Verizon users it costs some odd 175 dollars to end your plan. There is justice for the customer though. Sprint was forced to pay 73 million dollars in refunds. I am sure that other providers will follow to avoid the situation that Sprint is in. Read Sprint loses out in termination fee ruling for more information.
