About FREE ringtones...

ok im about to cancel my sprint vision because the 2 month free trial will be up (i get unlimited text messaging)

i have a website where i create my own ringtones from my computer's music files and send it to my phone. and its a link. now i hear that i can still use web after i cancel vision but ill just be charged per kilobyte when i download things

will i be chaged per kilobyte when i download ringers from this site? because the site is free....

my information has told me u only pay per kilobytes when u download from the sprint download thing in ur phone, if u download from a free site, then its free. correct?

Yes, you will be charged. Your information lied to you.

Ugh...the saga continues.

The site is free the downloads are free the data you use when send the ringers to your phone or go online to retrieve them is not if you dont have the vision service....so you will have the per kb charge on each download or ringer

Your minutes will not be charged.

You will be charged a penny per kilobyte for ALL DATA USAGE, whether the site is free or not.

You can...but you will be CHARGED PER KILOBYTE

ANY data transfer will cost you. It is only unl if you have an UNL vision pack.

DUH!

When you access the web, data is transferred. That means when you log on to check mail, check movie times, sports scores...whatever.... you are transferring data and you WILL BE CHARGED.

Do you read any of the brochures or the Sprint site at all? All of the information is in there.

You might as well keep the Vision......dispite what you say, sounds like you'll be racking up a lot of charges anyway.
