Sprint : Updates Related to Hurricane Maria

Update on Restoration Efforts in USVI; Extending Credits Provided to Sprint Customers

OCTOBER 18, 2017 - A crew of engineers arrived in the U.S. Virgin Islands to begin repairs on a short-term network solution. We have restored two sites on an interim basis in the USVI, and hope to have several more up within the next week.

Sprint is also pursuing a longer-term improvement to the network in the USVI. Materials are beginning to arrive and crews have begun preparatory work for construction, which includes things like clearing debris so we can access critical sites.

In the meantime, Sprint will proactively credit monthly recurring service charges for a total of two months (extended from one month previously announced) for all Sprint customers in Puerto Rico and the USVI. Credits will automatically appear over the next two billing cycles in the amount of the customer's service plan, including tax. Credits do not include equipment fees or other optional add-ons. Customers should continue to pay the amount indicated on their bill, but be assured that the credits will be applied in future cycles.

Update on Store Openings and Network Restoration; New Crew Arrives on the Island

OCTOBER 11, 2017 - Where possible, we continue to open more Sprint and Boost Mobile stores to serve as charging stations. Due to fluctuations in power, exact locations may change day-to-day. For the latest information, check local social media handles on Facebook (@SprintPR) and Twitter (@Sprint_PR).

We have conducted recons on nearly all of our sites, and those that are still outstanding are largely due to transportation and safety issues - i.e. closed and damaged roads and large debris. Additionally, we have conducted the majority of the tower climbs needed and will continue to plug away until all are completed. Shipments of equipment and supplies, including fuel, needed for network restoration continue to arrive by air and cargo ship regularly. While we continue our work, our biggest challenges remain backhaul and lack of power.

We are relying on a blended workforce for restoration efforts that includes Sprint personnel from both Puerto Rico and teams flown in from the U.S. that work side-by-side with local crews. A new Sprint crew from the mainland just arrived yesterday.

Recovery Update

Much-needed network equipment has been arriving through multiple air cargo shipments, including a chartered cargo flight yesterday that included a host of portable generators, satellite (VSAT) equipment for restoring voice and text service, microwave backhaul sets and other supplies. As new equipment arrives, our teams are working to deploy them as quickly as possible.

Send a Text to Loved Ones in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands

OCTOBER 1, 2017 - The significant devastation from Hurricane Maria and Hurricane Irma has made communications challenging in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. But with the help of personnel and resources currently on the ground, Sprint has begun restoring cell service to customers.

Air shipments have been arriving in Puerto Rico over the weekend with needed network equipment such as microwave and satellite backhaul sets that teams are immediately using as part of the restoration efforts. A large chartered cargo plane is being loaded with additional equipment and supplies in Miami and is expected to arrive in Puerto Rico shortly.

In response to the difficulty people stateside may be experiencing in reaching their loved ones in these impacted locations, Sprint is offering a service [sprint.co/2wr2rkb] to anyone (regardless of their carrier) to register the cell phone number of Sprint customers in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. When the Sprint customer based in these locations has a connection to the network, that customer will be notified via a text message that family or friends in the U.S. are trying to reach them.

Update on Puerto Rico Restoration

SEPTEMBER 29, 2017 - We continue to make good progress bringing cell sites up in Puerto Rico, but there is still a tremendous amount of work to do. Our recovery teams are on the ground and more personnel continue to fly into the island. We've been working aggressively to assess damage and restore service, with engineers conducting reconnaissance of sites both on the ground and from the air via helicopter. Our towers are still standing and largely intact, despite the devastation across the island, and we're doing everything we can to restore backhaul and power. We are focusing first on restoring the most populous areas and then building out from there.

Over the next several days, air shipments including a chartered cargo flight are expected to arrive with network equipment including satellite (VSAT) equipment for restoring voice and text service, microwave backhaul sets, chargers and battery packs for our customers, and other items such as water and cots. A cargo ship is currently on its way with fuel. And Sprint has chartered a cargo ship to transport additional fuel and larger power equipment to sail early next week.

Our team continues to coordinate with federal and local government agencies on the island, including the Housing and Education Authority of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
