We continue to monitor Hurricane Dorian’s path as it moves toward Florida and the Southeastern US

To assist customers in Florida in the areas expected to be hit hardest by the storm, we will waive call, text and data overages for Sprint customers from September 2-8, 2019. Customers on Unlimited plans will continue to enjoy their unlimited data, call and text benefits.

Additionally, as our teams did in Puerto Rico earlier this week, we’re prepared to help keep our customers connected during and after the storm makes U.S. landfall.
