Is it possible to get the $15 PV pack for discounted because it does come with Sprint TV but since we cant watch it on a 6700, can we get it for discounted??

the $15 pack DOES NOT come with Sprint TV, so the answer would be no...only the $20 and $25 packs have premium content included...

no i've tried, but some reps not to smart. they some how did manage to put on reg vision on my 2nd line a920 which includes unlimited pic/video. but rep didnt know how he did it in first place so i was unable to get that plan 15.00 for my 6700.. but if you are going to be sending pic/video its best to keep the power plus pack 20.00..

Not for the 6700 it isn't. This is what the OP was inquiring about. Get the cheapest plan for the 6700. Power Plus pack or anything else is a complete waste of money for the device.

My brother activated his 6700 about a week ago and they told him he had to change his vision to power vision and charged him $10 a month for power vision and $5 for unlimited text messaging.

Question: I have question about the Power Vision $15 pack. My phone is
PPC-6700, and the Power Vision pack comes with With unlimited Web and
Data access, streaming Live News channel including ABC News Now, and
streaming radio featuring Sirius Hits. And I have noticed that I cant
view those channels, so why do I have to pay $15, is there anyway to get
it at a discounted price or otherwise I will have to cancel it. Thanks
for your help in advance.

That email you sent them was perfect till you mentioned cancel it. you should have tried your way around but once you said cancel your chances was shot down...

I wouldn't have threatened to cancel your Power Vision pack to e-care. You don't have to cancel it and e-care knows this. In fact if you do cancel it you will quickly realize how fast those casual usage charges add up if you use EVDO at all on a 6700.

You might have better luck contacting e-care again and telling them how much you enjoy the EVDO service, but have noticed that you aren't able to reap all the benefits from it and ask if they have any advice for you or if there is a more appropriate (cheaper) plan that you can get for a 6700 and they may very well offer you a discount this way.

Those are the two free channels available to anybody with a multimedia phone...even those on the old vision plans...they are free channels...you will not have any luck trying to work a discout based on the fact you can't view these two free channels...you'll have better luck just trying to explain that your phone cannot reap all the benefits of EVDO and everything it has to offer, as other posters here have suggested...retention has gotten really strict in the past month or two so it couldn't hurt to take a shot, but don't be upset if you end up where you are now...
