More than 4,000 members of AAA Northeast are taking advantage of the expanded relationship between AAA and Sprint. The two companies have deepened their 15-year history together to bring additional benefits to AAA's more than 50 million U.S. members.

"We are proud of our long relationship with Sprint, and this newly enhanced program will provide our members access to the latest in digital technology," said Mark A. Shaw, president and CEO of AAA Northeast said in a release. "These new mobile technologies, together with free AAA Basic membership renewals, will help members to stay connected with their friends and families and to important roadside assistance help when they need it."

AAA members can now receive significant benefits from Sprint, including payment of AAA Basic membership renewal fees, discounts on Sprint's calling plans and more. Under this agreement, Sprint will renew the AAA Basic membership for primary and associate members as long as they remain eligible Sprint customers and register at www.AAA.com/Sprint. Sprint will also offer the Unlimited Freedom rate plan to AAA members for a limited time for just $35 per line a month for four lines - a $5 monthly discount per line with AutoPay. As the most inexpensive unlimited data plan, Sprint's Unlimited Freedom gives customers unlimited talk, text and data with no access charges or hidden fees. It includes unlimited mobile optimized streaming videos, gaming and music and unlimited 4G LTE data for most everything else. Additional benefits of the relationship include; AAA members receive a 10 percent discount on all other applicable Sprint rate plans; Sprint customers who are also AAA members will receive a 25 percent discount on eligible accessories; and Sprint customers who are also AAA members will receive free access to the Sprint Family Locator app, providing the ability to locate a family member's registered phone. With the app, users can see a loved one's last available location on a map and receive notifications as soon as they get home.

"Sprint and AAA share the mutual goal of keeping our customers safe, secure and connected when it matters most," said Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are delighted to have this opportunity to ensure our customers have easy access to the important benefits of AAA membership, including roadside assistance and travel discounts. For me, this is much more than just another discount program - it gives Sprint the ability to provide peace of mind for families that count on us."
