I was so pissed I called Sprint and threw a fit because how the hell am I supposed to control if someone sends me a text message??? I had them block any in and out bound messages and they deleted the charge. It's only 35 cents, but it's the principle behind the thing. 'Course I didn't tell anyone that I did that; causing me to miss my roommates birthday BBQ because he sent a mass text instead of calling to invite people!

OMG don't get me started on Sprint. They had told me that they were going to give me 100 free text messages b/c of a problem i was having with my phone, but instead of giving it to me free, they added it to my account and now I get to pay 10 dollars extra each month. I called to cancel, and the dude said "oh ok..i'm sorry we did that. Here let me give you 100 more FREE text messages as an apology" I asked him to verify that they were free and he said yes. Well they still charge me 10 dollars extra each month even though I told them to disable texting (which they didnt).
Now they are charging me "travel minutes" because i got my phone in Texas and i'm currently in California. booo. I'm glad my contract expires the 1st of November.
