lol its called making money some of us use the phone for business.

agreed and it may be worth the hassle for money.

So may use it just to talk, for no reason.

I dont like Cell phones as its just another means to be harassed by my ex and my Grandmother. :help:

On a side note I had it out with Virgin Mobile tonight. I reported them to the BBB for starters after I received this reply via email:

Basically the twit told me its $0.20 a minute unless I want to pay $6.99 a minute.

The dumbass I talked to today didnt quite get that far. He tried to double talk me that bullshit right off the bat, and I ripped him a new one every which way.

I quoted the pamphlet word for word. Told him theres 0 mention of having to pay $6.99 for $0.10 minutes. I told him I want the plan advertised, $0.10 a minute- Im not paying $6.99 a month for it, I want it as advertised not what you guys say after the fact.

Turns out this must be very common. The story got real strange. He told me its not the card, but having to add it as a "voice/minute pack". I said WTF dude, I bought your fvcking $20 card thats supposed to be 200 minutes. There is no other card. So quit feeding me bullshit.

He ended up going in and fixing the account somehow

Damned kumar...

Thank you, come again!

Well I'm glad to hear you got it worked out for now at least.

I need a slider now.

I don't talk alot on my cell phone, but I do text a bit and like it cause I can take my time to answer back...like email to me. However I still pay for a monthly contract cause my wife uses hers a tad bit more then me.

I need a bluetooth headset but yeah I do think its stupid to walk around everywhere with that thing in your ear...crazy!

And the people in the middle of the store right behind you on them that say something like "Excuse Me!" while my wife and I are talking... Of coarse I always turn and look at them with a look like WTF? and they point at their ear.
