never. what an original comeback though.

Sure, they could have as a courtesy comped the service, but in this economy I don't see how you can blame them for not doing so.

Again, did someone wearing a yellow polo shirt show up at your home with a gun and force you to sign up for an unnecessary phone, put it in a drawer, forget about it, and then cancel your service?

If they did, then I take back my comment.

BTW, why didn't you notice the phone and it's line and number on your bill when you reviewed it?

its just the way it is..

This is more anti- sprint bias from frazod that we have come to expect.

Sprint has had to do alot to win me back as a customer but they did, most recently the sprint store rep drove from the P&L District out to overland park during rush hour to personally deliver my new phone.

Sprint is really trying to turn things around, and have greatly improved in the last year or so.. especially in areas of customer service, and coverage - again especially in the KC area.
Its going to take some time, they are going to have to continue to work EXTRA hard to overcome this huge negative perception that they generated for many years, but may I suggest giving them another try - they are NOT the same old sprint that everyone loved to hate.

Verizon was the absolute worst carrier that I ever had - they would put extra charges on almost every bill

ATT's Data network was way too slow and the GSM quality was not that great.

again.. they all suck.. pick your poison and STFU.

I like to think AT&T can't be any worse than Sprint, but I think at the end of the day they're all horrible. You've just got to pick your poison.

If that 3rd phone line was on the same account, it should have been canceled by default when the account was closed out.

If the phone line was on a separate account, then that's your fault. If not, it's theirs.

The fact that you had an extra line and phone that was never used is irrelevant. You could have had 1000 extra lines. So long as they were on the account that you closed out, those lines should be closed out as well.

Knowing just what you told us, sounds like you were in the right.

No, it was all on one account. But apparently each line is regarded as a sub-account. I guess the sea monster won't die until you kill ALL of its tentacles.

The justification for charging me the whole $93 was that I went into the next "billing cycle." Another great tactic they use - whether I use the phone for an hour into the billing cycle or 29 days, I get charged the same $93.

$93 for a single line, with no extra features, that wasn't even used, for three days. Hey, that's fair!
