| Really comes as no surprise ...you market a service particularly aimed at a customer base that has little or no experience in meeting continuing monthly payments, then you will reap the consequences...
This is much akin to the real-estate bust that is at least in part due to the rash of sub-prime lenders, and their predictable demise...

Thats why there is prepaid. Its like electroshock therapy, if you answer wrong (dont pay), you rehabilitated (homies cant call you/phone is dead). |

No wonder they weren't paying! (I'm pretty sure Amd'd was prepaid... if it wasn't, just ignore me...)
Seriously, when it's all paid up front, I'm not sure I understand how they're blaming the customer...
I got my oldest a pre-paid via T-Mobile to help her learn about responsibility... Once you use up all the value in the account, if you don't BUY more, you don't get service... I.E. no continuing monthly payments .... |
