I started a family plan with sprint last year with 2 lines (me & wife). I am planning to add a third line for my daughter in the near future. When I went on the sprint website to look at phones for adding a line to share minutes I realized that the prices were for the discounted phones (rebates and such) I went as far as adding one to the cart to make sure the price stuck, it did.
This brings up a few questions.
1. Am I starting a new contract? I signed a 2 year contract June 2010?
2. Can I use this dicounted pricing to buy myself the Evo 3D or Nexus 4G and give my old phone (Intercept) to my daughter, while keeping my current number?
3. Will I still be able to keep the upgrades I am due in 2012 after using the upgraded pricing in 2011(the upgrade pricing was not linked to either existing number on the account)?
4. Am I being a dick by giving my daughter the Intercept while I enjoy the new hotness? (just kidding about this one)
5. Does it matter what kind of phone ( feature or smartphone ) plan wise since we are on the Everything Data. It is still the $19.99 additional line charge, correct? There is no additional data charge (other than the $10 4G tax)? The plan price is the same regardless of phone type.
Thanks for the input.
