CSR Quotes Price, Confirms, Applies, then Retracts
This evening what should have been a simple chat with a Sprint CSR ended up with this little writeup after 2 hours or CSR hell, all of which I have in a chat log that is posted in it's entirety below.
The chat started out with simple confirmations about our plan and usage, then when I asked about Sprint's new "Everything" plan, that's where things got ugly. The CSR quoted me a price of $89.99 for the first line, and $84.99 for the second. Knowing that I saw the commercials for $99.00 I asked her to confirm that price again, and she did. I then asked her to sign us up. During this process she informed me that once I switched plans there was no going back due to the fact that they no longer offer our plan. I said that was fine and she went ahead making changes, during which time she informed me that she quoted me the wrong price. Now I can't go back to my old plan, and I don't get the price that they quoted me on the new plan so I am stuck paying for the original price "Everything" plan.
There is nothing I hate more then a company giving me inaccurate information about their own products and or services, and despite my best efforts to cover myself I still end up with the short end of the stick. Once I got to the point of letting the CSR's supervisor know that I would be posting this to GetSatisfaction he quickly wanted to end the chat session.
The part in question is that starting around 6:49:10 PM dealing with the "Everything" plan.

6:27:54 PM Kyle Paul Johnson I just have a couple of generic service questions.
6:28:19 PM Kyle Paul Johnson First one being: Do calls to other sprint customers count against my minutes?

6:45:16 PM Sheena No minutes removed.
6:45:26 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Do minutes for calls that are incoming count against our total minutes?
6:46:14 PM Sheena Yes, that is correct.
6:46:43 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Does it cost minutes to talk to the Sprint CSR's?
6:48:24 PM Sheena Not when they are contacted using star codes. For example pressing *2 from the device to speak to a Customer Service Representative or *3 for Payment Options.
6:48:57 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Ok.
6:49:10 PM Kyle Paul Johnson next question.... on the Simply Everything plan....
6:49:10 PM Sheena Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
6:49:33 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Is there a limit on minutes with this plan?
6:50:21 PM Kyle Paul Johnson and... is there a family version of this plan, or would you have to pay the $99 per line?
6:53:30 PM Sheena There are three Simply Everything Plans. One with unlimited minutes, the others are 450 minutes and 900 minutes. There is not a Family Version, each line would be separate however the first line is $89.99, the second $84.99 and so on with a $5.00 discount on each line.
6:54:29 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Would you also get that discoutn on the unlimited plan, i.e. $99 for the first line, and $95 for the second line?

6:57:13 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Unlimited plan is now 89.99?
6:57:50 PM Sheena Yes that is correct.
6:58:59 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Last question. I am interested in the IPhone which is obviously only offered by AT&T. Are you able to offer me an sort of incentive to stay with Sprint rather then make that switch?
7:00:50 PM Sheena I do apologize, I am unable to provide special offers. I will need to transfer you to another department to inquire about that. I do apologize for the inconvenience.
7:02:05 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Can you switch our two lines then to the unlimited plan that we were just speaking about for $89.99?
7:03:05 PM Sheena Yes I am. Would you like it effective today?
7:03:23 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Yes please for today
7:03:51 PM Kyle Paul Johnson This will not prolong our contract any further correct?
7:04:40 PM Sheena That is correct. However, please be advised the current plan you are on is no longer offered; switching back will not be an option.
7:04:53 PM Kyle Paul Johnson that's fine
7:05:01 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Let's make the change on both lines please.
7:05:10 PM Sheena One moment while I process the changes.

7:14:16 PM Sheena You may use Sprint Navigation, however you must subscribe for $9.99 a month.
7:14:35 PM Kyle Paul Johnson So whats the free GPS all about?
7:17:21 PM Sheena I do apologize, due to Sprint Navigation being Included in your plan; you must subscribe,however, you wont be charged.
7:19:13 PM Kyle Paul Johnson So I have to subsribe to the 9.99 service, but won't get charged for it?
7:19:37 PM Sheena That is correct.
7:20:04 PM Kyle Paul Johnson ok.
7:21:37 PM Sheena Thank you for your patience, I will have that information shortly.
7:22:55 PM Kyle Paul Johnson ok, are you sending me to those other folks about the IPhone then?>
7:25:12 PM Sheena I do apologize, I misinformed you about the Simply Everything Plan. The first line is $99.99 and the second $94.99. I was looking at the prices incorrectly. I do apologize, for this inconvenience, Would like me to proceed?
7:26:50 PM Kyle Paul Johnson I specifically asked you the price twice, and now after you have switched me plans, and I can't go back, and no it's $20 more?
7:28:18 PM Sheena I do apologize for the inconveniences. I am able to fix this, I have not saved the changes yet. Would you like me to proceed?
7:30:08 PM Kyle Paul Johnson No leave it as is, however i do think I should get the 89.99 price you quoted as I did ask you, then qestion you on that price.
7:30:21 PM Kyle Paul Johnson and you confirmed both times.
7:32:03 PM Sheena I do apologize for the inconveniences as I misinformed you, however, that option is unavailable. I will be happy to leave the plans as they were. Would you still like to be transferred?

7:35:13 PM Sheena You will be transferred to Account Services, the only department able to offer special incentative.
7:36:57 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Can I also talk to them about the quote you gave me and now retracted?
7:38:54 PM Sheena You may, if you would like.
7:39:07 PM Kyle Paul Johnson ok, please transfer me
7:40:30 PM Sheena One moment please.
7:45:35 PM Kyle Paul Johnson ?
7:48:17 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Hello?
7:48:51 PM Sheena I do apologize, please allow me a moment to notate the account.
7:53:57 PM Sheena I do apologize, at this time the department available to further assist you has closed. You may contact a live Customer Service Representative by dialing *2 from your device.
7:54:31 PM Kyle Paul Johnson There is no supervisor on duty in your department?
7:55:37 PM Sheena Yes, however they are unable to provide special offers, as they are a part of the same department.
7:56:08 PM Kyle Paul Johnson I would like to speak to them anyway please.
7:56:42 PM Sheena One moment.
8:02:31 PM Kyle Paul Johnson ?
8:02:49 PM Sheena Hello, my name is Jay, I am a Supervisor, allow me a moment to review your chat session.
8:04:00 PM Kyle Paul Johnson sure
8:05:55 PM Sheena Bare with me one moment, I am trying to get your old plan back for you. I do apologize, that you were mis-informed about the Simply Everything Plan.
8:06:45 PM Kyle Paul Johnson I am not really all that interested in the old plan, I am disputing the fact that I asked her twice about the cost of the plan, both times which she confirmed.
8:07:58 PM Sheena I do understand your frustration, I will make sure that she gets coached on this.
8:08:04 PM Kyle Paul Johnson not only did she confirm, I questioned if the price she quoted was correct and she said it was in fact correc.t
8:09:36 PM Sheena We do offer a plan that has pretty much the same thing for the price that she quoted, however, I do agree and she will be coached on this.
8:11:06 PM Kyle Paul Johnson I am not trying to be an a-hole on this, however i have been bruned enough times by CSR's giving me incorrect information, one of which almost cost me my home, so I am not very tollerant of getting inaccurate information from the company itself.
8:12:52 PM Sheena I completely understand, there is not a way to get the Simply Everything Plan for the price that she quoted, because the system will not allow a discount with that plan since it is already discounted at a deep discount.
8:14:38 PM Sheena The Simply Everything Plan is $99.99 for the first line and then $94.99 for the second line.
8:15:21 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Are you familiar with getsatisfaction.com?
8:16:23 PM Sheena I am not familiar with that site.
8:18:03 PM Sheena Do you have any further questions?
8:18:07 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Sprint has it's own reps that respond to this site, and I do appretiate your training your CSR's further, but again I do hold businesses to their word, so I will be submitting a complaint against Sprint's Customer Service to this site.
8:18:44 PM Sheena Do you have any further questions?
8:19:30 PM Kyle Paul Johnson Thanks again for your time, and I guess I will be talking to Sprint via other avenues.
8:19:39 PM Sheena Thank you for contacting Sprint. Our goal is to make your chat experience a great one. There will be a survey after this chat that you may fill out to advise us of how we are doing.

Plans starting at $19/month

Inappropriate?Lol! Alright, I am not going to say anything about the chat because they pretty much did everything wrong ;)
Now as for the plan, I'm guessing you are on a family plan as you asked about that in the chat.
There is no unlimited Minutes Family plan, though no surprise the only company that offers it is T-mobile at this time and at a very expensive rate.
We do have a family plan however,
$129.99 you share 1500 minutes, and ALL Lines have Unlimited Web, Text, video messaging, Picture mail, GPS, E-mail, Sprint TV, Sprint Radio.
the $129 includes two lines, add a line for this plan is $20.00
If you need more minutes, $169.99 and you get 3000 shared minutes, again add a line is $20, and the $169.99 includes two lines.
Now if you only have TWO lines, it may be worth it to just get the Simply everything $99 plan for both lines. Like that sales rep said, The first line $99, and the second line after that is $94.99.
The plan she was talking about, there is indeed a $89.99 Unlimited plan, but all you get is minutes and texting, and yes the next line is $84.99.
the $99 gives you everything unlimited, what is not included in these plans are
Phone as a Modem
Insurance.
Phone as a Modem cost $20 extra per line for THESE PLANS unlimited web plans(including the Family ones mentioned above) Other plans its $40 per line for phone as a modem I believe, this may have changed though.
Insurance is $7 a month, and here's where we have problems in the stores. Customers refuse to get the insurance, even though you tell them if you don't have it you pay the RETAIL Price to replace the phone if required, rather than just paying $50 to replace it. They always say "Nah its just a $20 phone"...but I have had a few customers come in 2-3 months later saying I lost my phone. And Yes they had to pay the Retail which was $169.99 for that phone, and the sad thing is, they didn't learn their lesson, they still didn't get insurance.
7 x 12 = $84
by the time you are able to upgrade again, yes you would have paid $186 dollars in insurance, but think about it, the CHEAPEST retail is $169, if you got a half way decent phone the retail price is atleast $299.
I recommend getting insurance, its only $7, sure if you look at it at a WHOLE years worth it's a lot, but same thing with anything else, you eat a hamburger each week, if somebody says thats 130,000 CALORIES a year, you aren't going to stop eating it, because thats in one year, and ya... I just recommend it, Especially for PDA's.
Anyways, what plan were you on before? Do you know the name of it?
I’m tired
1 person says
this solves the problem

Inappropriate?[Just wanted to poke my head in and say thanks for the great topic and the beginning of a great answer.]
I’m impressed

Inappropriate?I have a similiar problem with Sprint quoting one thing and then going back on what they quoted. I called (I believe it was Dec. 19th) Sprint prior to agreeing to a contract for a wireless data card to check on prices and see if any discount was available for United Employees. At that time I was told by the representative that I would qualify for a 20% monthly discount on my Data Access Connection Card Plan, which would be subtracted from the 59.99 monthly price that he quoted me. I confirmed this with him several times, prior to agreeing to sign up for the sprint data plan. He said that I would need to fax in proof of employment to receive the discount and gave me the fax number to send the proof to--which I did. I received my first bill and noticed that there was no discount applied. I emailed sprint alerting them to this fact and was told that since I only had a data access plan I did not qualify for the discount. I then called sprint (on Jan. 9, 2009) and finally talked to someone who told me that she would correct the problem and get me the discount, however, just as she was finalizing things, they dropped the call. I called back and was told that I was ineligible for any discount. I then emailed sprint again and was told the same thing. I have an issue with the fact that I was quoted and agreed to one price plan and then after the fact am being charged a different rate. I also agreed to a two year contract with sprint, if I were to break that contract, they would charge me to get out of it. In addition to me living up to my part of the agreement, there is an expectation that they also live up to the part of the agreement that they quoted me and that I agreed to when setting up my account with them. I won't even get into the horrible customer service I've encountered with all of this.
I’m frustrated
