So I went to the cell service store today to test a new service. I was told the provider is more of a post paid company, and as a result my preference for pre-paid service would result in tower deprioritization and sub-par service. They offer a 14 day low cost test drive, fine…let’s do that. Twelve days later I go in to wrap up the test drive and I’m there for three hours to accomplish that feat. No I won’t agree to you dating the end of my service for a month later than today’s date, that defeats the purpose of the 14 day trial and validates a long term contract that I don’t want. I try to be patient with the remote worker whose thick Indian accent makes communication really challenging after being asked to carry on this conversation on a store employee’s phone…yeah, sure, I want a device near my face that has your filth all over it, I mean I’m filthy too, but it’s MY filth! The service itself is really good, the next day I went and bought a pre-paid SIM. Guess what, the service is just as good. Take away, you don’t have to let them rope you in to financial or contractual commitments to get great service for the same or lower cost, they push this because it forces you to commit for years to their business. #cellservice #cellular
