Personally, I didn’t much care for Sprint’s service back when I had it. My mom kept getting overcharged saying how she can’t wait to cancel. But the thing is, you can’t cancel, you have to let your contract expire.

Well for a limited time, you can.

See the reason you can’t cancel is that there is an Early Termination Fee clause which states you have to pay an arbitrary ridiculous $200 fee to be able to cancel. For a very limited time there is a way around this.

There are only very limited circumstances that allow you to escape a contract. One of them is when there are changes made to your contract. Sprint is increasing the administrative fees, which is mentioned in your contract. Since they are making changes after your signing, it is considered a ‘materially adverse change.’ This means you are legally entitled to escape the bindings of your contract.

But…. you are only legally entitled to do this until what is interpreted as consent for change is given. What this means is, if you pay your next bill, that is determined to mean “Ok, I agree with contractual changes.”

So, if you want out of your Sprint contract, (or you want out to get back in as a new customer for promotions) the time is now.
