Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / ATT Wireless / May 2004Guess they're serious!
On vacation. Automated payment doesn't go through. I'm 30 days late. My number is disconnected. After 3 years as a loyal, paying customer. Wow! Don't think I'll be renewing this one. Art > On vacation. Automated payment doesn't go through. I'm 30 days late. My > number is disconnected. After 3 years as a loyal, paying customer. Wow! > Don't think I'll be renewing this one. Disconnect first, ask later. They got your attention didn't they? >On vacation. Automated payment doesn't go through. I'm 30 days late. My >number is disconnected.

I've been over 30 days late and actually owed them for two months of service, and the worst they've done is send out a letter or call. Attws does not shut u off for 30 days late, You don't pay your bill, they shut u off. My word what is the world coming to! Try missing 2 or 3 months of payments for some other things in your life, see what happens. > On vacation. Automated payment doesn't go through. I'm 30 days late. My > number is disconnected.

Not likely. SprintPCS prepaid is all done by Virgin. >> Just try Sprint, I have been told that if you run out of minutes, mid >month, >> mid phone call, it shuts you down. can anyone confirm this? > >Not likely. SprintPCS prepaid is all done by Virgin. Regular SPRINT PCS accounts are not just shut down. Virgin is Pre-paid. -- John S. e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net I am in a sprint plan, recieved a text message the other day and was informed that i needed to pay, after calling them they informed me tht if you are in a plan and you exceed, in my case,125.00 you need to pay the bill or you will be shut down at the 125 mark. i was at 113.00 and bills had not reached them yet. They don't want people, even in a plan to get behind on payments. rich >>>Just try Sprint, I have been told that if you run out of minutes, mid >>> [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >John S. >e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net >I am in a sprint plan, recieved a text message the other day and was >informed that i needed to pay, after calling them they informed me tht [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] >i was at 113.00 and bills had not reachedthem yet. They don't want people, >even in a plan to get behind on payments. I have had Sprint PCS since they started business in the DFW area. I have had bills in the days of roaming on analog where it cost as high as $5000 (yes, that's THOUSAND) and never been shut off when reaching any artificial limit. Typically sometimes during the 3rd month I would receive a call (I travel a LOT and sometimes the bills take several months to catch up to me) asking me about payment. Payment via electronic check always leaves the service running. -- John S. e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net > I have had Sprint PCS since they started business in the DFW area.

Are you out of your mind?! Anybody paying that kind of money in roaming charges would be stupid to not just open an account at the local carrier and carry two phones. Even if you were eating minutes on both plans for forwarding your inbound calls, it would still be a major savings. Sheesh. -Jeff >John, I knew you were crazy before this post, but man--$5000?! Are you out >of your mind? Yeah, but beng crazy keeps me from going insane! As for the $5000, it was all re-imbersable expenses for a consulting job I was doing. My point was more to the point that the newer plans with no roaming are in line with what people need. AT&T was a leader and others have followed to some extent. ALTHOUGH, the DOR Plan is still the best for those of us who travel to all the out of the way places in the country. -- John S. e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net > I am in a sprint plan, recieved a text message the other day and was > informed that i needed to pay, after calling them they informed me tht > if you are in a plan and you exceed, in my case,125.00 you need to pay > the bill or you will be shut down at the 125 mark. i was at 113.00 and > bills had not reached them yet.

I bought an expensive phone, and it was added to my next months bill, which was then in the hundreds, and never a peep from SprintPCS.

You have been claiming over in the Sprint PCS forum that your phones were free! Liar. - -- Thomas T. Veldhouse Key Fingerprint: 2DB9 813F F510 82C2 E1AE 34D0 D69D 1EDC D5EC AED1 Well a couple of years ago I was on a $35 month plan and had to leave town on a family medical emergency. I ran up a bill ot over $250 in roaming charges with no problem (except to my wallet). This was with Verizon. > I am in a sprint plan, recieved a text message the other day and was > informed that i needed to pay, after calling them they informed me tht [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] >>John S. >>e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net That's a long vacation! --Mike > On vacation.
