$10 Extra! History Does Repeat itself, Read on ...

[Chris5#WN]

So here I am browsing my amazon account checking out some reviews I wrote up for various things and right in front of me I see the review I did (extensive one to say the least) on the old Samsung A900 Blade (remember that phone!)

Well needless to say if anyone remembers that far back that's when they first implemented the EV-DO tech fee and guess what $10 more on your bill just like the EVO's 4G fee, history does repeat itself ...

Here is the small blurb I wrote, (mind you this was back in 2006)

"The internet is fast now with the EV-DO tech but i was on the phone with Sprint for more than an hour prior to activating the phone trying to deal with the added $10 a month thing for having this new tech in the phone. Since its an upgrade on the current internet they try and get you for that with the $10 more. I was not happy with this and expressed my concern. If you dont opt for that in your plan, the other way to go is the 2cents per KB of transfer which i thought was crazy because that could rack up very fast."

Man look.....quit making these threads about the $10 fee. It is there. Deal with it. If you do not want it, please disregard the phone. Negative feedback is a disease in these parts. We do not need it. Countdown to EVO!

Not to pick on you, but I just had enough.

10 dollars are not going to break the bank.

and, since this is america, and no one is forcing you to pay it, if you dont want it, dont get it...
geez, I think everyone on EARTH agrees the 10 dollar surcharge sux, but, if you want the phone, you pay it..

How many threads have to appear on the web about this topic????

I agree enough is enough post it in one of the 300 other $10 is to much for me i am not getting this phone anymore threads

Yeah. Everybody already said their cases for and against the $10 fee. Some people (like me) dont care and getting the phone anyway, some people dont like but are still getting it and others are just very unhappy and are giving up on one of the best phones available for measly $10. Just let it be. Its gonna happen..

Countdown to my Evo: 8 days 9 hrs....

Seriously. If $10 is going to make or break you every month, you probably shouldn't own a cell phone anyway. Save that money.

Like others have stated, there are enough of these threads. Thread closed.
