You get charged for how many you send, not receive, right?

How is this her fault any more than it is yours?

this is some funny shit.

You can pay "X" amount for different text plans. I think I have like 500 a month or something like that. My phone bill stays pretty much the same every month.

Or just switch to a text plan for $5 a month or whatever it is. See if Verizon will remove the charges if you switch to a text plan. They're usually flexible on that kind of stuff. I recommend not bringing this up to your girl unless you're not worried about her quitting.

i tried

theyre like 15 bucks more and u get unlimited out of network overall texts

but it doesnt help with this month

they said they would pro-rate 50 bucks off the plan as a convenience

but then the call dropped

first dropped call ever

and its right before they take some money away haha

im just blocking texts starting may 21st next cycle

i hate them anyway

Blocking like get rid of? Or blocking like certain people can't text you? Is that even possible? If it is, I want that feature.

that shit is pointless anyway

the only reason i use texting is so i dont hafta use my voice to go "uh huh...yea ....yep...uhuh"

i guess now ill just hafta stop answering the phone

I dont blame you. It is a HUGE waste of money to have all the crap on your phone.

Did anyone else get a refund this tax year because of phone companies over charging for long distance? I got about $200 back...

Refund IRS

crossings

i thought you could only claim $30 to $60 on the long distance phone thing... how'd you manage $200?

The old hang up mid-offer trick, I see.

Sounds like they are making you work for it. Do not be deterred!

i dont wanna hear it
bout 6 months ago i was talking to this chick all the time, i mean like sveral times a day. i only had a cell at this point for about 6 months and was not used to having to keep track of minutes and shit like that. anyways i went over my plan something like 1500 minutes. when i got my bill it was 860 dollars!!!

elise

I took the time to get more back by going throught the charges I kept on file from my phone bill. Verizon is funny with their billing too.Thats a whole nother topic.

Anyways, I had a few people I knew that were out of the country as well that I talked to. As well, just going to Chicago cost an assload just to talk.

So basically, I have been going to H&R block since I was 18(and started my retirement fund) and they helped me figure it out.

Also said on the IRS site:
???Many taxpayers are overlooking this special refund and the chance to get a bigger refund,??? said IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson. ???We encourage taxpayers to spend a few extra minutes reviewing their tax return to make sure they are making an accurate request. A little extra time can mean a bigger refund check.???

Patience and organization can pay off sometimes.

also i would like to know about blocking numbers from calling you. does this even exist? maybe for certain plans/phones??
i need to block a few disgruntled exgirlfriends from callin me. what i do now is keep them in my phone but label them as "dont answer", works pretty good except for when im drunk.
