A to stop hemorrhaging customers targets the competition, including T-Mobile. Sprint said Wednesday that it would cut the monthly price in half for Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile customers who switch to Sprint.

But Sprint’s new prices are all over the place — depending on what company a customer switches from. Nobody appears to pay the same price even for the same plan. And, , Sprint offered this last year, although it didn’t include T-Mobile customers in the past.

For example, a T-Mobile customer who pays $50 for service plus 2 GBs of data would now pay $25 for the same plan at Sprint. But for a similar plan, an AT&T customer currently paying $55 for a 2 GB plan would now pay $27.50. Confused? Here are Sprint’s examples:

Offer is available between Nov. 20, 2015 to Jan. 7, 2016.


No 2-year contract required BUT new customers must buy a full-price phone from Sprint. Customers can take two years to pay for the phone.
