The new free Sprint Open WorldSM add-on offers customers free
calls1 and texts to Canada and Mexico with calls starting at
just a nickel to Latin America, the Dominican Republic and more than 180
other countries when added to a domestic service plan. For those who
like to travel, it boasts free unlimited calls and texts when traveling
in Canada, Mexico and more than a dozen Latin American countries2 without
the annoyance of roaming charges.
Sprint Open World includes 1GB of free data3 while traveling
in these Sprint Open World countries: Mexico, Canada, Dominican
Republic, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador,
Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama and Paraguay. The countries
coming soon to Sprint Open World are Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay and
Venezuela.
A full 1GB of free data means Sprint customers can send hundreds of
photos to friends and family while traveling and can download plenty of
songs without ridiculous international data charges. Sprint customers
needing more than 1GB of data pay just $30 per GB, based on actual
usage. If you use less, you will be charged less.
“We’re opening up the world and breaking down borders so more Sprint
customers can stay in touch with the people who are important to them,”
said Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure. “Sprint is making it easier for our
customers to connect without roaming charges or excessive fees for calls
or texts.”
