I was pissed and called them to cancel and they said Id have to pay $150 if I wanted to cancel.
Ja! That's the type of horror story I'm reading about from the various attornies general websites and forums all over the country!

And they think porn sites are a rip???

I'll go with cingular. I'll get the phones via corporate account cause I ain't havin' my credit fucked up more than it is by having some bizarre minutes thingie goin' on.

if I was you I would contact my Attorney General and bitch like a son of a bitch. It's the only way to get these companies to knock off the rip off shit.

People in the U.S. just don't get it. 'IF' the service you sign up for, even if it's a hotel or a cell phone plan or even a restaurant, if during that period of service 'YOU' the 'CUSTOMER' are at a disadvantage or are treated without respect then by default the provider of the service is invalidated and can by law be suspended indefinitely until such service is considered by the court to be valid.

It's the most fundamental of all service and trade yet it's like we support and applaud a company for treating the customer like a jerk.
