hi, im new here, as you can see by my post count, and just purchased my first sprint phone today, i got the krzr and the guy put the powervision business on my plan, i thought he put basic, but i saw just now on the sprint site that the ultimate is the same price, is there a way to change the package without any extra fees?

First of all, the first month should be free if you havent had it already. Second, either email ecare or call CS. And welcome to SU!

Welcome to Sprint Users! :wavey:

There should be no problem in getting that plan changed over. I would simply tell Customer Care that you would like to trial the ultimate pack during your first month free to decide whether or not you want to continue subscribing to the power vision services. The representative will either backdate the plan to include the PV Ultimate plan or they might give you one month free of Sprint Power Vision Business and then give you an additional month free of Sprint Power Vision Ultimate (thus netting two months free of power vision services).

Your Welcome ... You are correct. The difference between the two packs is the Ultimate focuses more on Multimedia (large channel lineup, picture mail, video mail, 4 Free Tracks from the Sprint Music Store (per month), NFL Mobile while the Business focuses on "The Weather Channel." You get "The Weather Channel" application without the multimedia content. Unless you are really interested in whether, you might get the Sprint Power Vision Ultimate Pack and experience all the multimedia content Sprint has to offer.

The following is from Sprint.com:

Sorry...I realized that I missed the other half of your question, so I edited my original post to reflect the difference between the different plans. I don't have a clue why the Sprint Store Representative would have chosen to add the Sprint Power Vision Business pack over the Sprint Power Vision Ultimate Pack. With your phone, I would think the best pack would be one that unlocks all the multimedia potential of your handset.

In the beginning I got the power vision plus one month free, I would like to have weather channel and Instead of subscribe to only that one for 5.00, I decide to choose the power vision ultimate that's 5.00 more than the plus and I would have more channels than the plus or only weather channels and it would be the same just 5.00 more and when I made the change last sunday the guy gave me an extra month free for the ultimate package. If anybody try only the weather channel, was wondering if it would be the same as the one that's include in the power vision ultimate

Just call and ask. It's free through the first full business cycle anyway.
