Re: Getting out of cell phone contract
Yeah, I worked customer service for Cingular, but don't know how to get out of a contract because there was a group people were transferred to called the "save team" that will kiss people's *** to keep their service active.
Doug, you should really just keep bitching and swearing that you weren't told. You might have to talk to a few different people, but eventually they'll believe you and eventually you'll get to someone that's willing to help.
I think the ratio of people that give a ---- to people that don't give a ---- is about 1:100, so better get to calling.
