Sprint PCS Can Kiss My Ass!!!

Okay...so Sprint PCS and Nextel have merged.

I get my first bill from the new Sprint and it's showing usage nearly double what I am normally billed for.

Now, last month was not an unusual month for me phone wise. I didn't really spend anymore time on the phone than I normally do.

But, Somehow according to Sprint, I not only went over my normal usage of about 600 of my 1000 anytime minutes...I used 98 minutes over my 1000 minutes.

So, I had to order a detailed statement to go through all the calls and see.

And I don't think my usage is any different than it has been before.

But...all of a sudden there are literally hundreds of both incoming and outgoing calls for 1 minutes each.

I think something somewhere as been changed in this little merger, and we the consumers are not being told about it.

I have never paid for a first minute in all the years I've had a cell. I didn't pay with AT&T, I didn't pay with Cingular...and up till this month, I firmly believe I have not been charged for a first minute with Sprint.

So I went through the bill and added up all the first minute charges...sure enough...without those minutes, my usage is exactly what it always is, around 650 minutes.

My original contract with Sprint does not specify in writing that first minutes are not charged, but I was told when I signed my contract that that was so standard as to be understood. I was told I would not be charged for first minutes.

But now I am...and I ripped some girl in India a new hole because of it.

Also, another fun thing Sprint does...on the detailed bill, they just list the word "incoming" for an incoming call. There is no way for me to get a bill that actually shows the number of that incoming call. So, how can I possibly contest any of it.

They also have me taking and making 60-90 minute calls while I'm at work and my phone is in my pocket...or while I'm at the gym and my phone is locked in my apartment.

I don't believe a bit of it...and boy am I pissed.

The girl I talked to tonight told me that they would be investigating my bill and see what they could come up with.

Whatever...they're going to come back and tell me they there's nothing they can do...and that I'm going to end up owning them money.

And I just signed another two year contract.

I'm sooooo pissed.
