How Do I Downgrade My Sprint Package?
If you're a Sprint customer and want to downgrade your mobile or Internet plan, follow these simple steps.
Sprint is an American telecommunications company that provides wireless mobile and Internet services. Originally founded in 1899 with roots in the Brown Telephone Company, it has now grown to become the fourth-largest mobile network provider in the U.S. Today, Sprint serves over 54 million customers. If you're a Sprint customer and need to downgrade your package, follow the steps outlined below.
Note to change your plan, you must be the account owner or an authorized user on the account. You can change your plan whenever you want without extending your contract. However, available plans to you may vary based on your eligibility. Switching plans may result in the loss of service add-ons or discounts. And, device and term restrictions may apply.
Once you have made the changes, your new plan change will be reflected on your next bill. Once a plan change is made, you cannot reverse back into your old plan if it's no longer offered. However, you can always change to other available plans at any time.
