Advice on cell phone

After years of hounding my mom and dad about not having a cell phone especially when driving long distances in our cold, wintry state, my mom actually went out all on her own and bought an inexpensive prepaid cell phone. She is very proud of the fact that she has a cell phone and knows how to add minutes, etc. The problem is that she will NOT turn it on because it "runs down the battery." My brothers and I have explained about the cell phone charger until we are practically blue in the fac ...

Taking a poll on good cell phone service. If you have a company that you have been with for a while and have great customer service...please let me know. I am searching for a new carrier and this is of the utmost importance to me. TIA! ...

I need some help deciding on a cell phone plan that covers me and my daughter - of course reasonable (just look at what we get paid). unlimited talk and text, and hopefully a reasonably price phone. Anyone out there have a service they would recommend? ...

Did anyone's cell phone time get messed up this morning? My alarm is set for 6:50, so I got up, but the entire world was at 7:50. My bestee then called me and asked if this was going on with me. I have ATT and she has Sprint, as well as another friend with a tracfone. Needless to say, I was an hour late. Just wondering if this is everywhere or just here in West Michigan. How bizarre. ...

So this may sound like the dumbest question ever but here goes . . . I need to get a cell phone. I was thinking of getting one of those "Pay as You Go" and purchase an air card. The dumb question is do these phones have their own phone number so other people can you call or are they just to be used for outgoing calls? Thanks for any responses. ...

My 22yo son and his girlfriend apparently took out a small loan - not sure if it was a payday loan place as the company doesn't identify themselves as giving "payday loans." They are called Security Finance and according to their website, they are licensed to offer "traditional installment loans." Long story short, my son and his girlfriend took out a $500 loan with this people. They had to list something like five references on their loan app. Of course, they did not pay ...

I am really starting to think about switching to cell phones only. I would like to save on my bills, I hear a lot about people doing this - after searching, I don't think I understand where you "save" that much. Unless I am missing something. Do you mind sharing with me, what plan you use (provider), how many minutes (shared?), do you feel your minutes are sufficient? How much do you pay a month? Does your pricing include "data plan" (email, internet)? Right now we are paying appro ...

My first instinct is to go for the cheapest and on the straight talk website they have a free Samsung T528G when you purchase a plan. I have a cheapy prepaid phone now that I hate! It is supposedly touchscreen, but I cannot get it calibrated right and half the time I have no service which I don't know is the phone or the cell service. I also see Samsung Centura or Discover for $50 to $70. So what would you guys suggest I get? ...

Minnesotans on terror conspiracy charges this week, U.S. District Judge Michael Davis closed a chapter in the federal government’s long, extraordinary investigation of ISIL recruitment in Minnesota. In nine hearings over three days before a courtroom packed with the families of the young men who sought to give their lives to ISIL, Davis repeatedly underlined a clear message: There is a terrorist cell in Minneapolis and it is still alive today. “Everyone talks about Brussels or Paris ...

If you leave a message that you need someone to call you back, how much time goes by before they are just being rude for not getting back to you? My sister-in-law screens her calls and half the time doesn't answer the phone, then doesn't call back. After four days of waiting the last time I sent her an E-mail by way of her daughter (she doesn't have a computer) and she got a little huffy with me. Am I being difficult? ...

I live in eastern PA and have been with Verizon for over 35 years. I have been late in paying the bill lately because of my work situation. Today, my son emailed me and told me my phone was disconnected. Huh? I set up electronic payments 2 weeks ago to automatically come out yesterday and this Thursday with a live person. So I called. The aggravation of having to go through those 'answering machines' to get to a live person was enough to make me flip. THEN, the person I tal ...

I have a couple questions about the buttons on the outside -- the instruction book is pathetically lacking in helpfulness!! ...

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone here has Ooma for their home phone service? I currently have ATT and want to switch to something else, since they raised my bill again. I don't have a cell phone, and need home phone service. Curious to know if Ooma is really as good as they say. ...

spam calls (a lot of those 100222 type numbers) and I get 3 in 2 days from Midland!! I have had my number on the Do Not Call list, which of course does no good. I have a net10 phone and wonder if anyone knows of an app or something I can get to stop these irritating, harrassing calls!! I guess I may have to bite the bullet and get a more expensive phone that blocks those calls. I sure will if I have no alternatives! ...

Thought I'd share this neat little trick I learned from my BFF: Accidentally dropped my home phone into the bath-tub, yanked it out immediately, but the damage was already done. Still had a dial tone, but no display screen. I tell my friend, she tells me to get a bag of rice, put the phone in a air-tight bowl, and dump the rice all over it. Well, to my amazement, less than an hour later, all fixed like it never happened. I'm quite amaz ...

Have they seized other records of other newspapers? Have they seized private citizen records? This government gets scarier (sp) every week. WASHINGTON — The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative's top executive called a "massive and unprecedented intrusion" into how news organizations gather the news. The records obtained by the Justice Department listed incoming ...

The United States may have bugged Angela Merkel's phone for more than 10 years, according to a news report on Saturday that also said President Barack Obama told the German leader he would have stopped it happening had he known about it... How can this be, since Merkel wasn't chancellor until 2005? ...

He didn't know about Benghazi, he thought it was a video, he didn't know about wiretapping Angela Merkel's phone and other world leaders'phones, he didn't know the healthcare web site wasn't ready to go (actually it was a pieced together piece of crap, but evidently he didn't know that either). What exactly does he know? How to campaign? That's it? Really? ...

This ruling is only for Section 215 of the Patriot Act. It was to expire in June.The EFF (first paragragh) is the one everyone was outraged about and this is the one that will probably be allowed to expire. It’s the authority that the NSA, with the FBI’s help, has interpreted to allow the U.S. government to vacuum up the call records of millions of innocent people. It’s also been the focus of most of the NSA reform efforts in Congress over the last year and ...

I have T-Mobile, someone gave me a new phone and it is on Metro-PCS. Is it easy to change, cost much? TIA ...

I called my phone carrier (one of the large ones) and was answered immediately, no waiting, no switching. One person covers all deparements. They cover their state, I thought wow, great! If a large company like this with about 45,000 employees can fix this we could be headed in a new direction. No more foreign speaking people who I don't understand to annoy me. This means people in the US will have these jobs!!! I learned more about my phone in 5 minutes ...
