I was calling around to see if I could get a better deal than the cell co. I had.  nope nothing better out there.

In doing so I called somewhere and they wanted my card # to put a dollar to hold the brand new 600.00 phones for free with a 2 year plan.  Ok I said.   Then they did some credit check or something and needed another 125. -- deposit.  Well the girl said she just took it out of my card.  

WHA I  yelled.  I had to call someone and ask them not to cash a check.  This could have really bounced my account to total ruin.   Oh I am so mad. 

I called the company and they said to call the actual phone company.  Oh great.  Won't be til 90 days I get MY $ back.  So I am having to shut off my internet svc.  for a few months.   2 or 3.  I am livid.

I can still access BB on my phone.  I may not respond to as  many post as I would like but I can keep in touch.  Beware those companies I tell ya.

The girl at the internet place said she has heard of that happening. Her boyfriend had that happen to him too.  Of course I cancelled the order cuz I would be paying 2x as much as I am now for phone service and a limit on internet at that. Pfft.

I am keeping unlimited everything. I like the company I am with.  No shopping around for me anymore.

omg, that is insane! Whats worse is you cant really do anything about it -_- hope everything works out for you! ;p

Let that be a lesson, never give your number over the phone. I've heard so many stories of them taking even more money than they originally stated. It's not only a mistake to give it to them, it can more often than not be a costly one. Stupid companies -.- x
