i dont have no mac's
eric559: what he said is that ampd mobile is a dying company and basically out of business. Best buy is coming to the rescue to help out ampd mobile customers. for the next 30 days you can trade in your amp mobile phone for a 50 dollar rebate towards a contract phone(contract phone = a monthly verizon bill for example) OR you can get 20% off any prepaid phone purchased at best buy. he just confirmed this while on the phone with best buy

hope that makes sense for everybody

I was on my home "coming from a friend house" and i know there is this BB store "that i really really really hate" because everyone is a I LOVE PRETTY PINK PONIES

and they mock me because of my disablity i have "ADD by age 21 and i'm in my 30th" and is okay but is bad when people get on my nerve :Shouting:

anyway

so i when in there and got the "they dont care about my situwation" so i got a few choice

Verizon
VM
AT&T
Boost
Kajeet
and TMO

so i eliminated "verizon,kajeet,at&t" why they charge a fee but kajeet is resonable because they charge a 0.35 per a call on top of the 0.10 a minutes

and that leave me with "boost,vm,tmo,"

so there my 3 choice

I don't think you're being mocked. I'm ADD too, but you just can't express yourself fluently through writing.

But, I still understood your post.

I used to have VM (Virgin Mobile) pre-paid. It's not bad, I found it better than the other pre-paid plans, because they were cheaper than the rest.

late night irony

Well is 2.23am ny times and i just got home from my jobs "from the welding company" i'm doing some on-site machanist and welding for best buy store "they SUX"

anyway

as you know my "woe" with ampd but guess what i got an letter from VERIZON WIRELESS "shock and awe" and why they sent me a letter so i open it up and guess they have reduct there from $1000 to $400 due to my credit but why would the sent me a letter

AND IT HIT ME

maybe it due to that i was ampd customer that ampd lease verizon "mvdo" for there service and since ampd is in the garbage can "is got to a consuidence"

The_Mini_Rigs, I wish this made some sense. Then I wouldn't feel as if I'd wasted my time trying to read it.
