Since this is in the Safety Valve and the title is simply Cell Phone, here's my gripe. My cell phone plan is $49.99/month with Rollover from Cingular. I have about 2000 minutes rolled over, so there's really no chance in hell I'm going over my minutes. I get my phone bill today and it's $70. It's not in overusage or anything like that, it's them f*cking little things they add on to nickel and dime you to death. 3 different federal charges and a couple of state charges, other miscellaneous bullshit they throw in too. It's really annoying. Then they give these charges these names that don't explain anything about the charge. They don't have anything on the bill or in their website about what they REALLY are. One of these charges was a tax for when people switch companies but keep the same number. Why should people that don't use this function have to pay for it? What's wrong with charging the people who want to do this a few extra bucks? If they don't want to pay it, tough shit, get a different number. I've called them before and bitched them out, but that does nothing except get me pissed off even more. I'm a pretty happy person generally and I don't enjoy being mad. Why don't these companies just increase their rates instead of beating around the bush. I don't mind paying an extra $10 or $15 a month, if I know that's what the bill is going to be. If I sign up for a plan that's $50 a month, charge me $50 a month.
