ok for everyone that is not happy with the 10.00 charge on the evo sorry for ya dont get the phone -and for the people that want to know why it is there- here ya go


evo 10.00 charge

-it has nothing to do with 4g if u are in a 4g area then u get 4g if u are in a 3g area u get 3g- ok thats cut and dry right

-no the 10.00 charges takes off the 5 gig cut off for the 3g so u are not being charged 0.03 for every k u use over on the phone
(ok i say someone say they already get all the 3g they want on there phone yes u do but ur still stupid for knowing nothing about the evo and what it does before talking)

I thought the fee for using the hotspot was $30, and you had to pay the $10 fee regardless of whether you had the "hotspot" turned on or not. can you clarify this for me please?

no hot spot is 29.99 and yes u will have to pay the 10.00 regardless u are in 3g or 4g

but like i said that 10.00 charge is to take the limits off the mobile hotspot

mobile hotspot limit for any other phone
5 gig and 0.03 a kil after

so meaning u can use 1 million gig's of data on mobile hotspot and not ever be charge more then 10.00 a month


this goes for 3g and 4g both


keep them comming i dont get off work till 430pm and its only 1142am

Just to make this clear for people since tech support is kind of confusing.....

You are charge the 10 dollar fee for your evo to get unlimited data weather it is 4g or 3g...

29.99 for the wifi hotspot is optional... And that 10 dollar charge is unlimited for those devices as well.

This statement is true but not by tech support: " so meaning u can use 1 million gig's of data on mobile hotspot and not ever be charge more then 10.00 a month "

Because you are charged 29.99 for hotspot, so not ever charged more then 39.99 for unlimited data on hotspot....

I got your back tech support......

Hey, I'd like to put in a "reservation" for being one of your 8 unlimited data;-)

Right now I'm on a low, low rate with $2.50 unlimited data for my old Sprint phone that lives in my glove box while I suffer through AT&T to use the iPhone... (gotta keep the Sprint to make calls when the CrapT&T won't).

So I'll me messaging you when I inevitably come in and get the Evo:-)

Ok this may be the dumbest post ever on this forum.(not even counting the grammar and spelling errors)

You state that the charge is to remove a data cap, which you then point out that other users say they don't have data caps. You then give no further explanation for the fee, but do call the people who made your point null "stupid".

Facts
I know everything I need to about the Evo (including that it's not called the ever)
I don't live in a 4G area
I don't want the hotspot feature
I don't have a data cap

why should I pay 10$ more for the same service I currently get?

I can explain the Evo fee much better than you can. Sprint knows they have the hottest device on the market (at the moment) and they are going to try to milk it. I...

Are you sure that you didn't get this account messed up? I would be less shocked if it came from a user called BoostTechSupport and followed every paragraph with a "... dawg!"

First, the company line is that it's not a 4G charge, so you are correct there.

Second, there's no phone on any all-you-can-eat Sprint data price plan that caps data at 5gb/mo (aircards and embedded devices, obviously, are another story). Not a good excuse for the Evo $10 fee.

Third, the hotspot fee is an ADDITIONAL $29.99, it is not covered under the initial $10 surcharge. It's a great deal to get a hotspot with unlimited 3G/4G, but not part of the $10 itself.

In the future, lease learn to spell AND learn before YOU talk. Thank you.
