maybe she doesn't have good credit for a contract?

But the downside is you are accessable no matter where you go. I have a cell, and I've been stalked on it for the past few months by some lame creep. I can't afford to change the number right now and Verizon has told me repeatedly that I'm being a "silly little girl, don't worry about it." These are the same people that dropped a phone call to the police in an emergency situation because my pre-paid minutes were down to five remaining. Needless to say, I'm less than pleased with Verizon, and as soon as the summer paychecks get in, I'm finding a new service provider.

I like having my phone. But there are days that make me wonder if the hassle is worth it.
