Casual Data Charge: $75

Post by docellis »

Sprint is tricky.

SO I got a new phone recently and decided to drop all the random crap I had (internet/text/etc) and my first bill is $170 instead of $58.

I saw a $75 for "casual data" and called them.

So I called them and they say it is an internet charge.

Apparently I must have accidentally got on the internet? Or maybe I clicked on something I shouldn't have that took me to the internet - I don't remember this happening and I know I didn't intentionally get on the internet.

So I ask them to reduce or refund it as it was an accident. The operator spends 10 minutes trying to talk me into just having part of it refunded and getting the internet put back on my plan.

Anyway, $75!!!

Edit: thanks cronos :shock:

Heh, you might want to edit the subject pretty quick, doc. :P


And $75 for accessing the internet even once by accident seems ridiculous. Did anyone else use your phone and might have sent some texts, or downloaded some applications on it or something?

It's pretty clear what's going on here, doc: your phone is a prostitute.

I thought the thread title said "Casual Date Charge: $75", which is probably a bargain in most parts.
