I've had awful customer service in multiple Sprint stores. I don't mind Sprint as long as I don't have to deal with any of their employees, but yeesh. It's bad.

so i started a different job recently...
my last job, phones weren't allowed unless it was an emergency. so i adhered to the rule. only time i used mine was to check on sports info while taking a shit at work (i allowed myself two ten minute shits a day
![]() anyways, my new job. there are two blokes that literally carry a box of bottled water from the conveyor to the pallet, single handed. and in the other they are scrolling thru instagram posts. they will stop the work they are doing to change music choices with their ear buds. literally five hours of the day. and then they talk about how they cannot understand having no credit at the middle of the month, so they buy more credit. ![]() but i won't say a word because even though i could improve the lines production by three hours a day, there are less than ten of us, and they would all resent me for them losing their baby momma texts. ![]()

FreedomPop here for $0/month (Android Smart Phone). I also have MagicJack for my home phone. The nice thing is that all calls and texts can go through my MagicJack app (for free) on my cell phone as long as I have WiFi. I have WiFi at work and most places have WiFi of some sort. I will use the FreedomPop (Sprint) service if I'm in the car or out of WiFi range, but that's not often. My cell phone also rings when someone calls my home phone, which is nice.

More to the saga: So after making arrangements with the new carrier (Straight Talk) last night, this morning I call Sprint to cancel my service and move my two cell phone numbers over to the new carrier. I was supposed to receive the new phones (2 Iphone 6 models) tomorrow, but I got an email from Straight Talk that said I would receive them Monday. That's OK. The problem is, in order to move service from the old Sprint phone to the new Iphones, you have to have the phone ID numbers. I won't have those until the new phones arrive Monday. In the mean time, my Sprint bill cycle runs from the 21st to the 20th of the next month. Today is July 20th, so tomorrow, July 21st, Sprint charges me for another month of service on my current plan. So If I activate the new phones on Monday, I'll be paying Sprint $100 for basically three days of cell service. The new carrier doesn't start charging me for service until the new phones are activated. So, I'm going to have to sit on the new phones until August 19th to activate them. Sprint will get one more month out of me, because if I have to pay them anyway, I'm not going to give them a $100 reward for treating me like shit. In the Florida News thread, there's a story about a guy who shot up a couple ATT trucks parked in front of his house. I don't condone it. I UNDERSTAND IT, but don't condone it.

It's a shame Sprint is so shitty, both in their cell service and customer service. I'd really like to support a local business, but they make it impossible to want to use them for anything.

Speaking of smartphones, I've been getting emails for about a week now reminding me that I am now eligible for an upgrade. Two days ago the screen on my 'droid starts going all wonky, like it's splitting in half as one half of my graphics spaz all over the screen. COINCIDENCE????

I'm all set up with Straight Talk now. iPhone 5 SE for $159. $45/mo for unlimited talk and text. 8GB data up front at 4 LTE, then 2GB/mo at 2 LTE. Which is fine by me as I'm not using data for anything other than Spotify. Total was $220 out the door, phone is mine, can cancel service anytime I want to, and I had the phone within 24h with free overnight shipping. Waited about 1h for activation. Just had to input my Verizon account # and pin and the phone number was moved right over.
Call quality is great and I've had no issues. I've heard their customer service is really bad though. LOVE the phone BTW. Perfect form factor for me, industrial look (Space Gray), squared edges, sturdy, and the iOS is real solid (my first time). I've found a way to go gray scale, invert colors and combine apps into one folder on my launch bar to clear the wallpaper screen for a pretty nice black monochrome look. It's the perfect phone. Very pleased. Last edited by eDave; 07-22-2017 at 03:52 PM.. |

My work phone is an Iphone 6S, although I don't use it that much. My personal phone is is a 5S and I really don't see the difference in the two, besides the screen being bigger on the 6.

My 5S had great battery life until I upgraded to IOS 9. From that point on I've had to use the phone in low power mode, which works fine for what I use it for. Instead of a newer version of the phone, I'd like to be able to go back to IOS 8.
