A national class action has been filed in Florida against wireless service giant, Sprint PCS. The action is brought on behalf of all U.S. residents who have either been charged an early termination fee for canceling their Sprint PCS service, or who have been forced to maintain their Sprint PCS service in order to avoid such early termination fees. The Sprint users allege that Sprint has breached its contract with customers by not providing adequate service and by not investigating problems with service sufficiently. The action is brought under state contract law and state laws regulating unfair and deceptive business practices and seeks compensatory and punitive damages as well as disgorgement of profits and injunctive and declaratory relief.

The Sprint users allege that they frequently experienced dropped calls, patchy reception, missed incoming calls, improperly functioning ancillary services such as text messaging, voice mail and data transfer and excessive breaks in service areas. The Sprint users assert that despite numerous complaints, Sprint required them to either maintaining their service, or pay an early termination fee to cancel their service.
