mobile phone plan - 09:15 AM
(filed under 'general')
i've been looking around online at mobile phones. i don't really need a new one, but it'd be nice to upgrade it to something new & fancy. unfortunately, we're signed up to a two year contract with our current provider & we're not quite half way through it. i called to ask if they have some kind of upgrade option whereby we could stay on the plan, but get a new phone & they're just about to bring that option in. again unfortunately, even when it does come in, you're not allowed to take that option until your contract is within six months of ending. poo.
two years, or even one year these days, is a long time for a phone. a phone which is that old is ready to retire to one of those retirement villages for funky old people, or at the very least sell all its investment houses & travel the world.
the only option available to me if i do want to upgrade our phone is to buy a new outright & simply stick our existing sim card in it .. which would actually be kind of nice to not be stuck in a contract .. well, after this one expires, anyway. i guess buying a phone outright is still cheaper than paying out 14 months of a contract at $30 a pop.
meh. maybe i'm just dreaming. our old phone's not such a bad one, anyway.
I might be pretty good with a computer, but it took me a couple of weeks just to figure out how to answer my new phone! I hung up on a few people
why don't you just get a prepaid one for you and let the fungus use your current one? that way you can have a fancy one
i want a fancy one too. i want one with a camera. daniel said, "havent you got enough cameras?". i said... "no".

gee, so many things to worry over. i just got a new one. haven't tried all the bells and whistles yet, like getting emails, search the web, etc. you know me better though, i'm lucky to be able to punch up the right numbers to call someone.
