it says sprint not asurion so you would have to call sprint in my opinion

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
i thought sprint made an announcement that they won't do any replacement to tp2. they have plenty of tp on hand plus refurbish ones...i may be wrong tho !!!!

Re Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
This is very true. I went to a Sprint Service Center in Brooklyn, NY today and I told them about all the problems I've been having with my Touch Pro. I've already had it replaced twice but was having major problems with the sound. After they saw I wasn't lying they offered me the TP2, Blackberry Curve, the Rant and something else. No charge and new contract. They didn't have the TP2 in stock 2day but will have it in the store 4 me 2morrow. I live in Queens, NY and was in BK 4 training and just happened to go to the store 2 see if they could help me. They did in a major way. I'm picking up my TP2. Yay Me

That's pretty crazy if that's the case. I'm not going to complain, but I would have never guessed they would take it in this direction. As I always say... "we shall see". Fingers Crossed ;)

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
haha this sounds good to me, especially since i did a TOL not long ago, but on my other account i was due for a new phone discount, and being that now im under contract with sprint again bc of the TOL and not getting any new phone i might be able to get a TP2, ill even offer them to trade my TP(it's a little beat up by now lol) + $50 Im trying this tomorrow morning!!!

you have to go to a store or have a replacement sent to you recently that was a refurb and having troubles...... if you got the refurb recently they will do over the phone but if you havent you have to go to the store and have the rep tell them that it is defective... i got a tp2 coming my way... now to tell the buddy or not lmao i could by a tp off ebay for 125 ship that one back and than keep this and sell it mmmmmm decisions decisions

Got mine ordered today too. I just showed em that oil slick blob thing with the screen and they said no problem and offered the upgrade. Told me 3-5 wrk days. I just decided to check my voicemail a few minutes ago and they said they're outta stock in the warehouse. Now I gotta sit and wait.

dude i just had both my pros replaced in past week. called em retentions and escalations wouldn't budge....said all in store.so my only choice is that to go in store. now to figure out how to cripple it alittle so it works. i called store tech wasnt in spoke to some girl about it. she told me it is true. but up to the tech. he may just replace with another tp...which is ****ed up. i got one more # to try tomorrow for a escalation manager. she gave it to me last week on last replacement. being i had my line replaced 5 times total 4 in past 2 weeks

Re Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
so i went to one of the local Sprint Repair Centers with my TP. i told them i was having problems with it dropping calls and not being able to answer calls (both are true, by the way). a tech told me there was a memo out stating the corporate wanted them to get as many people out of TPs and into something else as possible. so. the bottom line ended up being they would order me a TP2 and it will be here in about a week he said. he let me play with one that an employee had. the size kind of surprised me. i hope i don't drop the beast. it may crack whatever flooring it gets dropped on. ha

that's what i was thinking but i also thought i saw some posts where sprint offered TP's as replacement.


doesn't matter. i'm just really happy i'm getting this for free. but one never knows, the deal could go sour i guess. until i have it in my hands, i really don't know i guess.

Re Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
I called up sprint stores in my area today. 4 had no idea what I was talking about, and when I finally found one that knew what i was talking about, he said it only applies if i had 3 or more replacments sent to me within the last 6 months. So I guess I am gonna go by there tomorrow and see what its like in person.....in uniform. LOL, if they still say that, then I guess I'm just gonna get my phone swaped 3 times this week, LOL. And I need to know, from someone who has actually done it, does that whole 5 secs in a microwave actually work, or will it be obvious? Thanks peeps.

Re Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
this is cool, my buddy has a Touch Pro with a messed up KB. He saw mine and he instantly wants to upgrade since he was waiting for something like this to claim a replacement. So whats the best way to go about this?? I dont think he is firm enough to go toe to toe with a rep at the sprint store...

TEP still offers TP1 rite???

well it has to be odne in store and they are supposed to get rid of the touch pro user by upgrading so bring it in there and they should auto order him the upgrade.

well basically you have to have had 3 replacements already on the touch pro than they will throw you into this device.

Yea hopefully thatll put more bucks in ur pocket...My keyboard doesnt have a backlight anymore and got a crack on the side where volume buttons r at..might give this a shot at a sprint store hoping for it to be replace with a tpro 2..what do u think?


PS:im on my first pro...

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro2
 
I know 3 is supposed to be the magic number, but for those who have had their phones replaced. How many replacements have you had before it was done. I think this might give us an idea + I'm sure it may have to do with locations in that factor. Thanks.
