Re: I can already hear the conversation This article and the comments here make me laugh.
My grandmother died when she was 70. She paid for one of these phones. If were alive now and had read this, she would slap all of you saying that old people needed to be protected and were taken advantage of by the phone company.
She read her bill.
She understood exactly what she was getting billed for.
She LIKED the service.
She was an adult.
She lived alone.
She made her own decisions.
Maybe Karl Bode  and all the others could start the PTOPFEITASALADNTB (Protect The Old People Even If They Are Sane And Lucid A Don't Need To Be) Foundation.

1 edit | so basically, those in favor of the Telco's $14,000 bill advocate ripping off old people. Because that IS what happend...
In a lease, once you've gotten to the point where youve BOUGHT the damn thing it is your renting, guess what? Its yours.
Formulating an Opt Out option and snail mailing it to the ones still renting is similar to me tell you, "ok son, youve got a choice to make, your either in or out!".
Because Im damn well sure the Telco didnt mention to the customer that their phone was already paid off or GOING TO BE paid off in the near future...
That my friends is a rip off.
And Im not to fond of those defending companies that target the public with bogus ass mailings and "warnings" covered up in "YOUR EITHER IN OR OUT!".
Cause thats what it boils down to IMO. The telco ripped off the customer...
$14,000!!!
damn, all of us know that money couldve been well spent on charity, home repairs, etc....uh oh, I said Charity!
(ducks from a crazy Aryan pointin a gun lookin him)
oh, and home girl aint slapping noone unless she wants a lawsuit slapped right back at her! ha! |
