(Way OT) Wag of the Finger: AT&T GoPhone

Got one of those pay-as-you-go plans from AT&T. You can choose to 'refill' in 30 day, 90 day etc. increments.

Today is November 1, 2009. A '90 day' 'refill' pushed the 'airtime expiration date' from November 19, 2009 all the way to January 30, 2010 which is 72 calendar days, 18 days less than owed.

Never mind 'money' inflation.

We are also paying 20% 'time' inflation!

  • OMG! That means 2012 is less than 21 'AT&T months' away!

  • The good news is that you have a new lawn mower. The bad news is it's rated in 'Sears horsepower' and the warranty is in 'AT&T months'.

T-Mobile coverage sucks but 1000 minutes for $100 lasts one year and the rest of your minutes also remain valid for the year.

SWMBO has her emergency phone with her most of the time. Occasionally calls to see if I want anything etc. but most of the time it is turned off. It is on pay & talk and for the first while we bought $10 cards every month, then went to automatic top up on a credit card. Last time I checked, she had something like 18 hours of local call time @ $0.25 per minute. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Per month?!

Thanks Gerry, for the first time in my life, it looks like I'm ahead of the game.
