Sprint sent this email today to their subscribers:
Apparently Sprint thinks it’s a perk to pay “just” $131.88 per year for Amazon Prime when anyone can signup for Prime directly from Amazon for $99 per year with a free 30 day trial. (Never mind the occasional promotions that pop up).
Sadly, the email doesn’t lead to an April Fools landing page, it leads to a real signup page.
Apparently Sprint is in such deep financial trouble that this is what they have to resort to…

@Me:
This doesn’t offer free data.
@Nick Summy:
If it’s a one-off then use the free trial.
@Chaim:
$10.99 per Amazon account:
Yes. Amazon Prime can be added to multiple lines on your account. For every account that you add it to, you will be charged $10.99/month.
Where are you guys seeing that it includes unlimited data?
It says unlimited streaming, but data charges do apply.
Besides, don’t most Sprint plans have unlimited data anyway?
