I figure some may be shopping around and are considering Sprint already so
this would be pure gravy for them. For others it could be a good reason to
check Sprint rates/contracts.

Says its for TMobile customers but the CNN article below clarified that it
pertained to any carrier.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Sprint is offering up to $175 to customers who switch
from other wireless carriers.
The credit is meant to "give customers a chance to try Sprint without having
to worry about fees or charges for terminating their contracts with their
current carriers," Sprint spokesman Lloyd Karnes said in an e-mail.
The offer is $175 for business customers who switch and buy any Sprint phone
; $125 for individual customers who buy a smartphone; or $75 for individuals
who buy a low-end "feature phone."
To get the credit, all accounts must be ported from existing contracts, and
they must remain active for 61 days. A two-year contract is required.
The offer began May 4, Karnes said, but it wasn't widely reported until
Thursday, when blog -
Spantechular -
posted a purported ad. The blog post had said Sprint was targeting only T-
Mobile customers, but Karnes said the offer is valid for those switching
from any rival carrier.
Sprint (S, Fortune 500) locked horns with T-Mobile earlier this week on
Capitol Hill. At a Senate subcommittee hearing, Sprint CEO Daniel Hesse
attacked the proposed AT&T (T, Fortune 500) purchase of T-Mobile, saying the
merger "will turn back the clock to the time of Ma Bell."
Sprint has offered credits like this before, but Karnes didn't deny that the
looming merger helped inspire the timing of this promotion.
Sprint's consumer offer is good until June 23, and the corporate offer runs
through July 23. To top of page
