Sprint removing premium data fee for individual plans?

The premium data fee is no longer showing on my bill. Check your bills and let us know.

I'm curious as well. I just paid a bill with the $10 fee, but my profile currently states $69.99 for my plan with no $10 data fee showing in the add-ons or anywhere on that panel.

I'm not holding my breath but I'd welcome the removal.

Trust me, you're paying for it. It just doesn't show up where you're looking for it at.

I think Sprint should make the $10 fee optional. Cap me at 5GB's and then charge me $10 for anything over.

As I expected, they merely removed the footnote.

I'd prefer having that fee applied only when I'm in areas that actually have 4g coverage.

My new billing cycle just started on the 8th and the $10 fee is not listed. However, my bill is still the same as it always is. So let's see what it looks like next month after one full cycle.

Edit - I just went to Change Plan Add-ons (to add Hotspot) and the $10 for Premium Data is listed on that page. It's there, they just don't have it on your main billing page when you login.

They won't remove it... Since they are going to charge all smartphones then its not really a 4G charge as they stated it wasn't from the beginning. I look at as they need to charge more and this is the best way to do it. They need to improve and expand and can only do this with more cash....

Sprint is still the cheaper and better plan IMO ... They're still sticking with unlimited data and that it will not change ...
