They probably could have made it if they had forced their customers with poor credit into a prepaid plan. Once the minutes were used up the phone would stop working until more time was added to the account. That way customers couldn't run up huge charges and then not pay. That's what Tracfone does and it seems to be working for them. -- We don't care. We don't have to. We're the phone company. -- Ernestine

Problem was, their target ("younger", MTV) audience doesn't have ANY credit scores, so it's difficult to figure out which ones are going to be the deadbeats.... calvoiper -- VoIP--the death knell of remaining voice monopolies!
