OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Sprint (NYSE: S) network really is faster and it’s more reliable, with better coverage than ever. Starting today, Sprint will offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee – the industry’s best consumer satisfaction guarantee. If customers aren’t completely satisfied within 30 days, Sprint will refund the cost of the device and service charges.1
The Sprint satisfaction guarantee is available for a limited time to new customers and eligible small business customers who activate a line of service at a Sprint company-owned store or preferred retailer, by calling 1-800-SPRINT1 or online at sprint.com. The guarantee also is available to current customers adding new lines of service in a Sprint store, online at sprint.com or by calling 1-800-SPRINT1.
“As I talk with wireless consumers across the country, they tell me over and over that a reliable network is the make-or-break factor in their buying decision,” said Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. “Sprint’s 30-day satisfaction guarantee is giving consumers the opportunity to try us out worry-free and experience everything Sprint has to offer – our award-winning, super-fast LTE Plus Network, the best price for unlimited plans, and so much more. No gimmicks, it’s that simple. And AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile customers can still save 50 percent off most standard rate plans when they switch to Sprint.”
Faster, More Reliable Network
