Explain the Fee!
13Dec/102

Let’s hope it’s a great New Year!

I created this website over half a year ago as a way to express my thoughts and opinions about Sprint's policies regarding their "Premium Data" fee associated with their newest phones.  I didn't know what would become of it, or if I could even make a difference.  It was my first website that I ever created and it was great to see how my site grew.

Overall, I'm very happy with the way everything worked out.  I've received a lot of great feedback and many emails from people telling me their stories and their personal experiences with Sprint.  It's hard to imagine that 7 months ago that when you Google "Sprint Premium Data", that my site and it's articles would be all over the front page.

I feel that the work that I've put into this cause has been very rewarding.  I've achieved everything that I've wanted (except getting my bill lowered! ha!).  I wanted to be on the android news sites - and I was.  I wanted to make it to the Consumerist.com site - and I did, several times!  Digg front page - 2x and many, many other websites have featured this site on their front page.    Ultimately at this point, it's time to let everyone know that I no longer will be updating this website with any additional information until further notice.

If there is any major news that comes out, I'll make a post - but this will be it for awhile.

I've received tons of emails regarding the lawsuits people are filing and I think it's great.  It's no longer a guy with a website trying to fight Sprint, but many people, including lawyers that are raising their voice.  Good luck to those lawsuits and anyone else who continues to fight this fight.

I can be reached at explainthefee@gmail.com, if you want to reach out to me.

Finally, if there's one article that I could have someone read and understand my thoughts about this, it would be this one.  Please let others know about the site and the cause - if you can and hopefully we'll get more news about this to report on!

Thanks for all the support everyone, it's been a blast!

    Since you are going to be keeping an eye on things, might I make a suggestion?

    Keep track of some of those lawsuits.

    Offer to make public, in this forum, the information that applies to many.

    Just a thought.

    I'm sad to hear you're hangin up the ol' keyboard for a while- but I understand at the same time.

    You've put together a great haven for all of us who don't understand the fee. It's things like this that help keep consumers smart and asking important questions to money-hungry corporations.

    I look forward to your future post one day describing Sprint's termination of an unexplainable fee!
