C - I need some help. I'm heading up to the mountains and the screen on my phone went out. It's on and it works, but I cannot see anything. I have insurance, but this is the third phone of this type that I have had this same issue with. What can you do?

"Can I use my dad's credit card?" "How about my sister, she has a card." "Ok, why don't we use my brother's card?" "Can you use this food stamp card, I won't tell anybody?"

That was what I always got in sales. Now that I do exchanges I get a different set of the same thing. People really seem to struggle with this concept and I can't be any clearer when I try to explain it.

It's simple really. We can bill up to $250 on your account over a 60 day time period. That means if you ...
