Virgin Mobile USA (NYSE: VM) will now get paid $4.50 for each subscriber it signs on to the Sprint Nextel network between July 1, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2009, reports the Kansas City Star, referencing a document filed with the SEC. Previously, Sprint paid Virgin $2.50 per subscriber, up to a total of $10 million, but the new deal shows just how desperate Sprint is to stop losing customers.

At the end of Sept., Virgin had 5.2 million customers, and Sprint had just above 50 million, but has lost millions this year. Virgin also pays Sprint for its wireless network services.
