How To: Save Money and Take Advantage of Sprint
Posted by soultrance on Wednesday, October 25, 2006 at 8:09 pm
Through-out my day at work and at home I spend a whole lot of time reading blogs. There are a lot of blogs that I like, but not a great deal that I’m willing to look at serveral times a day; however, one of the blogs that I am willing to check and do check multiple times a day is the consumerist.
The consumerist is ran by two guys that are snarky, witty and fun. Not only is the blog a good read, the guys that run it are out to save everyone a buck and to spread awareness of crappy business practices that so many of todays business’ like to follow. The talk about little known ways to save money, how to deal with certain companys and how to get the best bang for your buck, they even help out people that have been screwed over by companies by sharing their stories and trying to get the company to fix what they’ve screwed up. If you’ve never checked ou the consumerist, it’s certainly worth a read.
Todays how to save a buck and take advantage of Sprint tip comes compliments of the guys at the consumerist. Enjoy!
This sounds like a nifty HowTo on getting Sprint to give you a few extra bucks off your cellphone bill.
1. Call Sprint - 1-800-877-4646
2. Obey the opening instructions.
3. When the system asks, “How may I help you?,” say “dropped call.” The voice should confirm by saying, “Okay dropped call.”
4. Revel in the extra 50 cents or so Sprint gives you.
50 CENTS? Well, that’s for every time you say, “dropped call” until a rep comes on the phone. WikiHow users report an average savings of $11.00. If you abuse it, however, you get nothing, so spank Sprint with prudence.

It’s easier if you just call *2 and ask for a dropped call credit. You can only do this twice a day, and only up to $10 a billing cycle(so a total of 20 times). You used to be able to say dropped call credit 20 times in a row after calling *2, but Sprint regulated that too keep consumers from taking advantage of the credits. I’ve been getting my credits for about 4 years now, and it’s never failed. I also wrote about it in my blog at:
