I have an issue with my cellphone service provider and, I am locked into the contract for another 14 months.
Two weekends ago, I took the resident Harmonic to Kings Island Amusement Park along with some of my emancipated Harmonics, SO's and Grand-Harmonics; we had a great time riding, eating and being family. Of course, my daughters had to post about the adventure on Facebook which, they did with no effort. When I tried to get online and see the photos, my T-F*CKIN More-Bile phone came back with the red circle with slash icon saying, "NO DATA". Funny, looked like everybody else in the park had data service because, they were texting, Tweeting, talking and, even playing games online. My Fone (Samsung S-II) would not do squat. My daughter's Samsung S-II performed as expected. I asked who was her provider, she said, "Sprint, not that Boot-Leg T-Mobile". I was crushed. I thought, "Maybe the T-Mobile Satellite fell out of the sky"!
Yesterday, 6/16, we went back to Kings Island (we all have seasons passes) for a Father's Day get-together; more kids and more cellphones; everybody's phone phone worked internet wise and text and talk but, mine. Again, I polled them on their service provider and the answers came back, "Sprint and AT&T", even my son's throw-away TracFone had full service!
My T-Mo-bile POS wouldn't even complete a regular call inside the park; Pissed, I even tried to call "Customer Support" from the phone and it dropped that call also.
Today, I went online for help and the SOBs tried to insist that I go to Facebook (which wanted "Permissions" to have access to my online profile, contacts and, wanted to be able to post to my Facebook page....my response to that request was, "E-S-A-D"! Their phone support team is off-shore and if I'm lucky I can get someone who UNDERSTANDS and SPEAKS English, not someone with a lack of sentence structure speaking "Pigeon-Engrish".
It's going to be a long hot Summer so, we will be at the park quite a lot but, I'm gonna have to take my "Obama-Phone" (which is on the TracFone network) to stay in touch.
