Cell phone insurance is a waste of frikin money. But let me back up, I went out last night with my friend & some how my phone was stolen frown.gif Im soooo pissed, the bar tender is a friend pf mine & was right there chatting w/ me & they didnt see anything happen, we looked everywhere hoping I dropped it but NOPE....its just gone *omg* I dunno what to do...

I called & had it turn off so no one can use it but I cant get it re=placed according the Sprint untill I pay them, $50 bucks *grrrrrrr* I dont have $50 bucks, why do we pay monthly insurance if they are just gonna make us pay more??? I have had the phone since January, been making the monthly insrance payments & now they want more $....aint that about a B!

anyway....sorry for the post, but dont some of you work @ cell companies? is there anyway around this? Im so pist that I started frikin crying on the phone w/ the sprint insurance department im just THAT frustrated I feel so hopeless frown.gif I cant afford to pay them $50....I have too many bills & just cant afford it

WTF can I do?????

Amy, it's insurance. What type of insurance do you know of that doesn't require a deductable for using it? ;-)

And the reason you have insurance, is so you won't have to pay full retail ($300 - $400) in situations like these . Sorry to hear the news, but it's really not as bad as you think!

oooh yes! they can do it smile.gif & dont worry i have some of the pics on hand if I need them tongue.gif

But anyway back in January when I first got the phone the internet stopped working for whatever reason so I called & they ended up having to do a hard reset or whatever you want to call it, the girl did it from where she was while I had the phone in my hand...yep yep...kinda nice if you ever need it

im suppose to get my replacement in the mail today, thats what I was told on Friday soooo I hope it comes biggrin.gif
