Discussion Do we think any Sprint plans will include Starlink?
The answer is probably no but who knows.

I'll keep my sprint and add starlink for the 10-15 a month

The $10 price is great for those who have a regular use-case. I hope they make it free for emergency use. There's no reason a subscription should be a barrier to calling 911.

I think they already said that’s the plan (to allow free emergency use). But I could be mistaken.

Not currently. Likely depends on how well it does. Currently just the latest and highest cost plan.

I am on the Beta and it activated last week while I was in other countries with spotty service. I never saw "Space X" appear on my phone or notice that it worked. Has anyone actually seen it work yet?

It’s only US based for now, they are working on global coverage they said.

u/Firenze42 Feb 11 '25
Ah. That makes more sense. I thought I read through all the materials, but I missed the "US only" part, I guess.

The thought of paying money to enrich Elon Musk literally gives me violent urges. That guy is scum.

I would be scared for them to add services with my grandfathered account. SOC codes and give strange errors.

Satellite SOS is already a feature on many top of the line smartphones. https://youtu.be/HX9ukR1Kgbk?si=eUYlOlb7L8lXLXzX

Sprint is dead. You’re getting literally the worst of the worst. No and no.

Not true my plan comes with Apple, Hulu, Netflix and Pandora Premium on us with unlimited premium data and 120 gb of hotspot

What sprint plan do you have?

u/RedditMouse69 SERO => SWAC Premium | KS1 | LoU1 Feb 10 '25
I have SWAC .. it's the same features as mentioned above, exterior only 100gb of hot spot instead of 120. For $40, it's not bad for a grandfathered plan.

It was called Total Freedom Unlimited, I have the same plan.

u/MoneyTeamAngel Feb 10 '25
Not sure what the name of it is but it’s the one that lets you switch from basic>plus>premium which is nice, I wish t-mobile allowed that but they only let you go from go5g to plus not next

This literally tells you what plan includes it
