$300 if you cancel both phones.

Each phone will now have its own "Advantage Agreement" and $150 ETF.

are you looking at staying with sprint and just changing plans? If so, you
don't have to cancel anything, you'll just have to resign a contract, unless
they have changed it.

Depends what you are asking. There is no ETF now to change plans. or are
you asking about possibly cancelling while in the new 2 year contract,
at which time you would be subject to an ETF for each phone.

Most likely $175 per phone. Why do you ask? Do you intend to cancel?
You have 14 days to test out the service (although I think 30 days is
more appropriate).

Actually, Sprint's ETF is $150 per phone/line. I believe Verizon's is
$175.

To the OP: You have 14 days to try out the service and if you don't like
it, you can cancel and get a refund on the cost of the phones. You do
have to pay the activation fees (if applicable) and for service used.
You can change service plans for either or both lines, but be careful...
some plan changes require a new 2-year agreement, so make sure you ask
the rep when changing plans if you are also signing a new agreement or
not.

Thsi would be a new contract . Sprint PCS and the other 1900mhz
Atlanta providers (ATTWS, T-mobile, MetroPCS) just don't work great
where I live (a hilly and tree laden north metro Atlanta suburb )
the plan with Vision , FCA, 1 AAP is attractive to me . I just wanted
to know what it would cost me to get out if I decided to.

After many years with SprintPCS, I cancelled and switched to Nextel. I
was in the middle of the contract and the cancellation fee was $150, but
with all the taxes and other nickel & dime charges, it came close to
$170 or so.

I live in the DFW area and I got tired of all the dropped calls/calls
going straight to voicemail without phone ringing, etc. The past 6
months things got worse. I tried changing phones, no luck. I think
Sprint did what Sprint does best - over sell their capacity. They became
too unreliable for me.

I've had Nextel for a month now. I've had a few dropped calls, but not
anywhere close to the amount I was getting with Sprint. Nextel's browser
is much, much faster than SprintPCS's. I've also had 4 family members
dump Sprint in favor of Nextel, so far there are no regrets.

Judging from reports here, there are certain parts of Texas with which
Sprint has some problems. I don't know where the OP is, though.

Texas is a big, and mostly empty place ....
