Should Sprint Pay for Dropping Some Customers?
July 12, 2007

LOS ANGELES – Sprint Nextel’s plans to drop some customers that the cell phone service provider said complained too much seems to be turning into a marketing nightmare.

The L.A. Times is reporting today the chair of New York’s Consumer protection Board thinks the cell phone giant should pay a “termination fee” to those customers it wants to drop.

"If someone adheres to a contract and pays for service that carries a termination fee for quitting, it should be a two-way street," Mindy Bockstein told the paper.

I think this would be fair...if we cancel our contracts, we are penalized. Sprint should have to live up to their contract. They probably have a clause in there that gives them the right to terminate the contract at will though.
