After receiving my FIRST bill and realizing I had been overcharged around $300( My sister and I had opted to get two phones on one plan) ..I called to ask why we hadn't been given the plan we had purchased which was around 1000 min not 500. I was told to fax in my purchase plan (or receipt) ...I did. Then I was told ...(wait for it)....... to go ahead and pay the bill and THEN they would credit it to my account....and not all of it mind you....only around two hundred...LOL.....I wondered what planet I had been transported to where you owe someone $$$ and choose how much you will be paying back....I talked to everyone and their mother at customer service ( and other depts...I lost track)...went into several sprint stores and FINALLY after three months ( and no phone service because I refused to pay till it was resolved) I got it taken off my bill.

Switched to Cricket...NO SURPRISE!!

I had the same problem with MCI some time ago- it was over a year before they stopped harassing us for false charges! How do you like Cricket?
