I have been a customer on the sprint networks for 9 years. I have had some reception issues back in 2001 but they were tower related. I have had the same phone since 2000. I have been looking to upgraade but have not found a newer one that had the features and design I needed or liked, so I stayed with the sanyo 3700 I had.
This year I saw the RAZR V3 which has all the features I want and more, but is not usable on the sprint network. I stopped in their customer service centers to find out if they were coming out with any new models, that might compare to the Razr, and was very dissappointed with the lack of customer svc their attitude of next 'just another customer'. I have sent several (3) emails to them when I login to my account about whether they are getting any new models, and have not received any response back. So I have come to the conclusion they don't care about their long term customers, and so, I am going to change to the Razr V3 and Cingular network. Sprint has gotten so bloated with customers, you are just another customer id to them and they don't take any personal notice of you or care whether you leave their network or not, even after 9 years, so I will leave.
