Sprint Pcs ripoff blocking users from out of usa web sites Sprintpcs.com Internet
Sprint has decide that pople on their mobile phone sud not b allowed to acess web sites out of the USA. If u call n complain they tell u its ur handset! bring it to a Sprint store. When u o they say thers nothing wrong wiith it! I know of alot of people this has happened to. Alot of people are considering breaking there contract to go to other carriers. But i feel that sprint broke their contract to us by sayin we have unlimited world wide web n they have a rite to say where in the world we can go!Sprint has totally gotten out of hand on what they allow their customers to do I pay for a service n i expect that service to be there when i want it!!!!!

Not a Sprint defender, but the reason why Sprint or any other wireless provide can not guarentee access to websites on their phone, is they can't gaurentee the network anywhere else. As you are roaming on the network of a foreign carrier, you are using the abilities of that network. Similar to if you drive through a no coverage area, and you get no reception. No wireless provider can guarentee service, espescially on someone elses network.
