Called in at noon. Told the rep I heard about the deal online and that my battery life is meh (although its actually quite good) . He put me on hold then asked for my address and he then gave me a confirmation code. I was a little confused because it was so easy. I even asked him "So wait its free right". He said yes but the strange thing is he didn't charge for shipping nor did he charge tax. I was skeptical that he actually put the order through, but as soon as I hung up I got the confirmation email. Awesome thanks Sprint

Okay.

Here is the deal.


Wanna order it online? Tough, gotta be a new or upgrade.

Call telesales.

They'll charge you shipping and tax (comes out between $12 and $15 depending on where you are), and it takes 3-4 business days. So on Thursday or before if ordered today.

You should only be able to get 1 if you only have 1 line or GNex.

The-End

try this number. Tell them you're calling about the gnex battery promo. They've had enough calls by now that it should be quick. The first guy I talked to this morning had to offer me a call back so he could research my question.

1-800-777-4681

not correct... I dont even have my Nexus yet and I used the link I provided earlier... no problems, just $6.50 for shipping.

I tried that link and it kept sending me back to purchase a phone.

The shipping and handling and tax varies from state to state.

And the website states that you need to "BUY THIS PHONE" to do the promo online.

Just going with what I see


**edit**
but it also say's in my account that I qualify for the promo online, but it keeps redirecting me to buy a damn phone. Odd

They the deal is only for those who are buying the phone with the battery and to get it I have to upgrade or open a new line. I already have the phone. I've tried 5 times.

I already have to phone too. I simply said "If I had known this promo was coming I would have waited to order." and they gave it to me.

hopefully we didn't all also inadvertently buy another G-Nex in the process. lost in translation!

If I am unable to get an intelligent service rep to send me one today, will I be able to try again tomorrow?

Well this is weird


I signed into my Sprint account online, first thing I noticed is this months bill due at the end of the month is less than it was. and it is less by the same amount of my purchase of the Extended battery bundle.

Checking into it it appears they deducted the shipping and tax on the extended battery bundle from my bill.

Anyone else see this on their bill?

I am wondering if it is because I just purchased my GNex earlier this month.

I noticed that just now... My current amount due is $12.95 less than it had been earlier. I just got the phone Monday, so maybe your assessment is correct...

My account shows the same.
It will show as a credit until the transaction is processed on Monday, then disappear.
