I know some of yall used to work at sprint, tell me if this sounds weird.

so I just moved from Lubbock to Houston, went to a store to change my number, and they said they couldn't change area codes, and gave me a number to call. I called the number, and the person tells me the plans are slightly different, the houston plan has 50 more minutes than my current plan. everything else is the same. then they proceed to tell me that I have to sign a new two year agreement in order to change my area code. i'm sittin here like... WTF. it's a damn value in some database table somewhere. i'm not signing another damn agreement so i guess i'll just keep my lubbock phone # until my current plan is up.

yeah i'd have done that except we didn't have cell phones in high school

honestly the FCC needs to lay the smackdown on these damn cell phone companies. the rates are terrible, and all the agreements they get you into are BS too. same thing with dish, etc.

what i dont get is how cable TV is always so easy... go to the cable tv store, add/remove service, pick-up/turn-in your box, get prorated, no contract, etc.

ive always wondered the same. ask to speak to a manager at sprint. tell them you are not signing a new two year contract because you are not eligible for a phone upgrade. see if they will give you a phone upgrade. i mean, yeah, youll sign another 2 years, but at least you will have a new phone too ....that is, if you want a new phone right now. otherwise, tell them to blow themselves. sprint sucks
