California Offers Cellular Bill of Rights
JeremyALogan writes "The Feature has an article about The California Public Utility Commission's approval of the first cellular customer Bill of Rights in the US. The Bill enables consumers to cancel their wireless contracts within 30 days of signing on. It also forces carriers to clearly state their rates as well as critical contract terms in normal size print on their websites (no more fine print). Companies will no longer be able to lump "recovery fees" in with taxes or other government fees on bills." You can imagine the joy with which the cellular companies have meet this prospect. Court challenges will be ensuing soon.
tupper power!
waste your mod points on me!
He died defending his country from the evil, Islamist lawn gnomes.
Rob "Commander Taco" Malda was instrumental in the building of a beloved nerd community known as slashdot. He will be missed.
To engage in sexual intercourse with a virgin Vietnamese girl while she is covered in ramen noodles and you are wearing a bugs bunny costume?
Please tell me I am not alone in this fetish, please tell me there is a name for it, please tell me I can get help with a support group, or a girl to satisfy these fantasies.
This story was not what the title promised. Thus the campaign must go on: Amoebas are people too! Free the intestinal 8 trillion! Penicillin is murder!
Someone unrelated, somewhat related: I bought my service a few months ago with AT&T. Everything is nice except in the past month I've gotten a bit of spam on it. All were in the form of messages so I could turn them all off-- but I shouldn't have to do that. Has anyone else experienced this spam, on other systems?
Cell phone service seems much more critical then cable.
"than cable". THAN CABLE. For the love of God, it's "than" not "then" when you are comparing two things.
Please don't make me go over there and spank you.
In front of my office, a woman got stopped for some traffic violation, she had a cell phone in hand yakking away.
The officer came to the window, and she wouldn't hang up the phone. He got her license and registration, and she wouldn't hang up the phone. She sat there for 10 minutes while he did the radio check, wrote up the ticket, and still she wouldn't hang up the phone. He handed her the ticket, he drove off, she drove off and last I saw here, she was still on the phone.
Based on the cop's reaction, I've got to believe this wasn't' the first time it happened.
You were mistaken. Which is odd, since memory shouldn't be a problem for you
