| Re: T-Mobile said by battleop :So they hand you a contract but they cover up every thing but the signature line so you can't read it until after you have signed it? Yup. Read my post... it points out that the contract says nothing about having to be charged for text messages you did not want nor not being able to have TM stop the abuse and charges of spam text messages. I'm not sure how much more clear I can be about the _contract saying NOTHING about this issue_. I hate to be abrasive in my posts but I can't see them as being anything but very clear. | |

1 edit | You come out talking about not signing a contract if you do not want certain restriction of the service which may or may not be stated in the contract. Let me ask you, have you ever read every word of every contract, lease, agreement, procedure, tos that you have come across. If you have then please continue talking out of your *ss as you just lied to yourself. Next time give some thought to your comment instead of just saying.. don't like don't buy it. There are times when one has to make stand as all alternates to not buying are just as bad as buying it.
As for the suit, I have a personal and business contract with tmobile and on my personal account i have received on average 20-30 txt message from unknown people costing me 10-15 dollars additional a month. I had to get a basic txt addon for $5 in the end to deal with as I have no choice to stop tmobile from sending me messages. I am glad people are starting to fight the 4 services (no competition providers) we have.
In Korea, I was able to get a very decent service with no stupid strings attached. Same in Japan while staying in both countries for short while. Can't we get some decent providers here.. oh wait I forget we are about free market (Market where everyone has to be greedy in order to create real competition) | |

They could have researched this better prior to locking into the contract. Their fault.. Sorry... And usually I don't side with big corporations, but this time... Sorry. So your first thought was that they should have read the contract. When your error was pointed out you stated that they should go to another provider. When again your error was pointed out your response now is that customers should have some how thought of the idea that this odd situation could happen at some point and then searched for an answer (again, to a problem that did not yet exist). {inappropriate remark removed and apology inserted} . About the stupidest things I've ever seen posted.
'course, you could side step the real issue again and change your reasoning. | |

I've never changed my views.. Simple.. Read the contract, ask whatever questions you have and make a decision... You're the one with serious problems...
You didn't prove me wrong at all.. Your posts make no sense.

Again, you can read a fucking contract all day long, but if the terms aren't there, and are added in the future, no matter how ridiculous (how about double billing per month...triple billing...) you're just ducky about giving it all because you "signed a contract"??
You sir, are an idiot, and if your "reasoning" is as elementary as "you signed a contract", well I'd hate to see what you're like in the workplace, or some other stressful situation. God bless the people around you. (rolls eyes) | |

If you can't use some simple logic and ask ALL questions prior to entering into a contract / business agreement, then you shouldn't be doing business... It might not be T-Mobile's best move to be doing this, but they are not doing anything illegal. If they told people they could turn off the service or cancel their contracts if they were spammed, prior to signing of the contract, then they would be wrong for denying them. Otherwise, fair game.
