That is where you should have employed the ChiefsPlanet-ism "go eat a bag of dicks". But you're new here, so you get a pass. (Still, I think I might have told them to **** off, that they're wasting more money in salary trying to collect the money than what they're going to get)

They should tell you this when you're canceling. If they don't/didn't, then that's poor ethics on their part. Not illegal or anything, but it's a poor business practice. But, since they know you're not going to challenge them in court over a matter of $93, they have the upper hand because they can send you to collections.

It sucks, I agree.

I think we all know, just because it's legal doesn't mean it's right.

Had I poured over the fine print, examined my bill in detail AND called these morons three times a day for a month to make sure everything was taken care of correctly, I'm sure I could have weaseled my way out of this $93 expense.

This might be the smartest thing ever posted on Chiefs planet. :)

That sucks. I mean, it IS your fault, but that still sucks. However, did you really expect them to be lenient when they were no longer receiving any money from you at all?

I left Sprint a couple of weeks ago and went with the I-Phone from AT&T. Fired Time Warner and went with AT&T U-Verse.

Because of license overlaps the FCC is going to force Verizon to chop Alltel into pieces. Hopefully you will get to stay with Verizon.

They need to prorate your bill and charge you for 3 days worth of service. If they try and charge you for more you can sue them for damages to your credit rating for refusing to pay. Get paperwork, and line it up, you're not obligated to pay an entire months service when you cancelled 3 days in.

Boy, it sure seems like this should be correct. I really should check with one the attorneys here to see if anyone knows for sure. God I don't want to pay these ****ers anything.
