Default Re: OT: How to Pays Bills

I was able to use a specialized decoding algorithm to unscramble his routing number and account numbers. Any one want to write some bogus checks?

Just send me $2.50 and I will forward the information to you.

So many people worship their cell phones and rely upon them far to much. The cell phone company's are so corrupt in their billing practices that one must hold a duel double doctorate degree in law and book keeping just to understand their service contracts.

Half peek on peek weekend air time, out of area long distance roaming fees. Text messaging, email access, pictures, music download billing, this that and the kitchen sink.

Why can't they have one single simple billing system? Pay one fee and get all the services, no hidden fees, no misrepresented contracts, no surprises in the billing, everything is up front and out in the open so that you know what it is going to cost each and every month.

I remember when you had to pay for your ISP by the minute... oh those damn bogus charges by Prodigy and AOL....

This is why I hate cell phones. They are a huge scam and since so many people rely upon them the scams will only get more complicated, cost more money, and piss more people off, but NO ONE will do anything about it because everyone needs a cell phone now a days....

Unless you're in emergency services, you don't need a cell phone.

I don't carry one myself, but my wife does. I pay for a set amount of minutes per month, nights and weekends are free. The bill is always the same, down to the penny.

Being in the military we found it much easier; and yes cheaper, in the long run to not have a hard line anymore. We use cell phones and keep our number when we move just changing the area code.
