you're kinda out of luck. Wal-mart-2367 1100 HILLSIDE AVE PINE CITY, MN 55063 320-629-5845 Distance 66.71 miles Wal-Mart-1446 2800 PIONEER AVE RICE LAKE, WI 54868 715-234-6911 Distance 80.87 miles the only thing within 100 miles. Idea time: open up a tmobile dealer in Wisconsin!

There is indeed an alarm
Jan 23, 2008, 10:25 PM
in the Nokia 6263 forum

I just sold this phone to my friend, and he almost didnt get it when I told him there was no alarm. Rather than trusting that the specs on this site are 100% error-free...I decided it might be a good idea to check the box! It's clearly written on the box that it has an alarm, and when I scrolled through the menus...sure enough..alarm clock! If I were you I'd trade it in for this phone. I would like ...

funny you should say that...i just got back from costa rica about 2 days ago! i went backpacking for 2 weeks over new years, and pretty much 85% of the backpackers i met in costa rica were all from canada. they all said the same thing "we're here to escape the -20 degree weather" because obviously its summertime down there in CR and yes... "eh" is not just a stereotype

when i said a year of bending over employees...I was referring to employees they've done it to...but I didnt let them do it to me. another thing they were doing by screwing everyone is raising minimum quotas and keeping the store stock of phones laughable. A kiosk inside vons probably has more stock than this rather large store with a large, empty stockroom. some of us made it work, others didnt...and its a shame because some good employees ...

It wasn't a year of getting screwed. its been 12 months of tolerable inconveniences and that got resolved (bounced paychecks and short commission checks) that were caused in part to upper managements carlessness, irresponsibility, or dishonesty. This past month though they've decided to not pay 3 reps ANY commission and they dont plan on doing so. 12 months of periodic BS problems and one month of utter BS = time to leave P.S. The month in which ...

Sorry big shot..but the reason I'm quitting is because this company is worthless and has continually tried to bend over every employee they've had for the past year. More importantly is I already have a much better job lined up already which will pay me significantly more than what I ever made at this place. As far as reference is concerned, my reference is my store manager. He's a friend of mine, he's already been contacted and spoke ...

you're on your last week of a two week notice. I quit this lousy job a week ago...and I'm obviously not going to get any commission this month because they still expect me to hit a months worth of minimum quota in 2 weeks...(i'll need at least 30 activations... and from this store, it AINT GONNA HAPPEN) Anyways, considering I'm not going to get paid for anything I do (except for my hourly that will barely buy me a ...

Quick Question for Sprint rep
Aug 17, 2006, 9:19 PM
in the Sprint forum

I remember from back when I sold sprint, that if you do an ESN change it changes your upgrade eligibility date regardless of whether you bought a phone at full retail, upgrade, ebay, or whatever... Did they ever change that? I signed up in April, so if they changed it before then, then thats good. I'm going camping this weekend and I wanted to use a phone with a battery that lasts longer than the 15 minutes of ...

Only with a VZW voice plan is your price 59.99, and the same applies with Sprint (at least in my market). I'm not sure about Cingular because I do not sell them anymore. If you're mostly concerned about speed and less concerned about price I would say go with Sprint. Sprint has had their 3G network longer than Cingular and its more than likely more developed than Cingulars, and Verizon recently announced that their unlimited plan ...

Why doesnt nextel sell sim cards?
Jun 18, 2006, 4:02 PM
in the Nextel forum

Our inventory manager is always saying that we cant buy Nextel sim cards...and the agent down the road from us I'm assuming cant sell them either, because they're always sending customers to us saying they can buy sim cards here. We had a former employee that would buy nextel sims from an ebay seller that he trusted, and he'd sell them for 50 bucks under the table seeing as they're so hard to come by. All the cards he ...

I get it sometimes where the page will take a couple minutes to load, or not load at all and the screen will remain completely white. I usually dont wait for it, I close the browser and just re-open phonescoop and it works fine...but I have to re-log in. It doesnt really bother me too much though

1.) Make a copy of the song you want to use 2.) Open the copy in iTunes and right click the song and go to "Get Info". Under the Options tab change the start and stop time to whatever 30 seconds of the song you actually want to hear. 3.) Now again right click the song and select "Convert to AAC". Once conversion is done, save the AAC file as a name and in a place that will be easy ...

Stupid stuff that annoys the crap out of me "Thats an easy number to remember" ...It doesnt matter WHAT number it is, some annoying person always says that. The only person who really needs to memorize your number these days is yourself. If you cant memorize it after the first, second or third time, then you probably have a difficult time memorizing your street address also and there is little hope for yourself. "Do you have (insert random product)?" "No we ...

Phones on Ebay will be your best option. I've never heard of any store or repair center permanently removing a camera from a phone...and something on Ebay would probably be cheaper anyways...just make sure the seller doesnt have a lot of negative feedback. I've seen people come in with busted Ebay phones before. You dont really even need to contact T-Mobile when you get your phone, just swap her sim card into the new phone and it should ...
