Don't feel bad Nicki, same thing happened to me once as well. I pay everything I can thru online banking...and well, things just got confused when I moved to my last home, and I could have sworn I payed them, but...an uncompleted call, and a freindly conversation with the cell company and right as rain in the end!

Ah well, at least it was only your cell and not the tax man!  Also, you caught it before it could go to collections and make a mess of your credit!

I figured that is what happened when I called you this afternoon and got the Cingular message. Oh well!

So...what did my darling little angel do?  :o

I have a weird cell phone situation - my cell phone is actually the second line of my co-workers cell phone (don't ask, there is a very complicated, but somewhat viable, reason for this). 

This means that I don't even get the warnings that the phone is about to be turned off when there is an issue with her bill.  I either go to make a call and find that the phone is dead, or my co-worker comes into work and goes "Um, yeah, your phone doesn't work..."   ;D

You should see how fast they will turn off your cable.  They  flip that sucker off if you don't pay the bill and will say it will take a week to get someone out to turn it back on.

Yeah, isn't it funny how quickly they can move to turn something off, but just try getting them to move that fast when you want your service back on!

Well, I absolutely hate Sprint.  We had Sprint for our reg house phone.  Now I am completely not great about paying on time..I am always a month behind..i think it is deniel/procrastination...I just hate to pay bills...lol  Anyway, Sprint will send your monthly bill with the date it is due and if you haven't paid the previous bill it has what is owed but no date for shut off..just says in small letters "please pay as soon as possible."  So I figure ok..I'll pay both on the due date....But 2 days before the due date they shut of the service...  i was so mad and called them..I am like it doesn't have a date - how can you shut it off without a date.. They said well it szays to pay as soon as possible so that is 2 days before the current is due..OHHHHH  THEY MADE ME SO MAD.......then they charge like a 75.00 reconnect fee...  I told them to shove it I wasn't using their service anymore...went to the smaller telephone co in town and about 30 days later a rep from Sprint called me to ask how they could get my business back...told them Not Happening!!!
