anything cheper??
Why do people think they get everything free when it comes to cellphones.....i had a guy right now looking at my phones..i told him the phone he liked was 50 dollars and he gets a 50 rebate...he replied do you have anything cheper? what the hell it dosent get any cheper than free buddy. i worried about people. 😳
...
i run into the same thing a lot too. people don't want to pay anything up front for their phones.
...
Then they want to pitch a fit when they need a new phone..."What do you mean you want me to pay $179.99, I got it for free?" the vicious cycle will never end. If you would have not been so cheap to begin with you would have gotten the phone insurance.... 😁
...
Not to mention that when they have phone insurance they throw a fit cause they have to go through the insurance company for replacement. It's just like car insurance... you crash your car.... Does Ford replace it?!
...
I just nod and smile at those people. I offer insurance which they decline, and let them screw themselves in a few months when they break it. The full retail price is listed fully on our receipts, so they should have no questions (assuming they read).
...
just had someone call and cancel their insurance...gonna break in their house and cover her phone in A1 sauce and feed it to her dog...just to teach her a lesson... 😈 😈

I hate to say it, but it is the carriers' fault. All of them. Back when the phones were so expensive and the service was too, they needed to give away free phones to get sign-ups on the service. Now the rates have come down considerably, as have the phone prices. But we (collective of ALL carriers) have gotten the customers into the same situation as Pavlov's dogs: need a phone = free.
The problem with that is most of the free phones don't do any good for the carriers and the customers don't and CAN'T seem to understand that. The carriers offer the other services (sms, mms, internet, etc) to make up for the loss on phones and adjustments and other things that customers call in to care and get for "free." They don't understand that nothing...
