Sprint As You Go number: 855-319-4426

Bill can be easily waived by calling this number and simply ask to waive it


There is BLE"H 550 reply's to this post, please update the Wiki if you feel it's necessary

As I understand there is no reason to worry, if the account is completely canceled, it will automatically minus the difference at the next billing cycle, so for now you don't have to pay anything, just wait for a final bill to arrive

Finding a Sprint rep to cancel instantly and have the line prorated may take a lot of time. I was on the phone for 2 hours with reps who all said it would cancel at the end of the billing cycle and its against Sprint policy to cancel instantly and prorate. I finally git a rep who was glad to do it, and my line got cancelled and prorated.

You may also be successful in getting your account balance lowered by asking for a credit for the amount of time not used (it takes up to 48hrs to post)...

Make sure when you log onto your account your device is not there otherwise you didn't cancel

See this post to turn your phone into a tomtom GPS!

Yes,I was told the same by a pay as you go supervisor.  He said they dont have our SS# and anyway its pay as you go so if you never have really used the phone you don't need to pay. He specifically said that these accounts won't go to collection.
I would imagine it's similar to an insurance policy, if you don't pay the premium, you don't get the service. But and insurance company can't come to collections because you haven't paid a premium. They will just cancel your coverage.

I got the same response but didn't settle for that. I HUCAed once and pushed until they removed the charges and cancelled my account.

You guys ought to be ashamed of yourselves. STEALING!!!
Really! if I call 10 times and plead with them to cancel my service and they refuse, I'm stealing if I don't pay the subsequent charges?

Anyone have clearer instructions than those on the page?
How to put tomtom on an android:

There are 2 parts to install tomtom,
1.dowloading and installing the program (the .apk file, 31MB)
2.downloading and instaling the maps (7 individual downloads aprox 300MB ea, total 2GB)

APK
1. Click this link to download the APK: http://www.upl.me/Uepvn8
2. Right click the downloaded file "usv1.3" and select "Extract Files..." enter password: "android", and you will get a file called "TomTom U.S. & Canada v1.3.apk"
3. Save the apk file to a sd card, and open it on your phone with a file viewer and click to install it. (if this is your first time installing an apk you need to go to settings>security>unknown sources and select "allow instalation of apps..."
for any issues with this step, google: how to insall an apk
4. you should now have tomtom in your apps

MAPS
Download these 7 files:
1. http://www.upl.me/opE393
2. http://www.upl.me/iA4R83
3. http://www.upl.me/GSYgZZ
4. http://www.upl.me/HciOlP
5. http://www.upl.me/6WTGpA
6. http://www.upl.me/TWgx3l
7. http://www.upl.me/3TQnW0

Slect all 7 downloaded files together, right click, select "Extract Files..." enter password: "android".

Open folder containing the extracted files "USCA9104963" then click the folder "TomTom U.S. & Canada Map v910.4963" and inside it you will see a folder called "tomtom".
copy this tomtom folder and paste it to the root of the SD card. (the root is the actual card, not any folders in it.)

now open tomtom on your phone and it will automatically find the maps (if not make sure you copied the "tomtom" folder to the root of the sd card.

IINM porting was reccomended to cancel the line going forward, not to take care of an already incurred bill.
