Net10Wireless is @#$%!

I usually don’t use this blog for private thoughts, but this seems to be a never-ending story.

After I’ve moved to the U.S., I bought one of those pre-paid cell phones from Net10Wireless. Naive as I was, allowed them to charge my account each month the minimum amount to keep the phone in service. Phone service was o.k and I was happy.

After we’ve build our credit history, I’ve switched to another service provider and cancelled the contract with Net10Wirless.

How naive I was!

Net10Wireless continued to charge my account, even after several calls to their so called ‘Service-Center’. It takes you quite a while to get there, then they ask you to ‘hold for a minute’ they need to check something on my account. I tried to explain my problem to three different service reps and I still got charged!

Does anyone know a good lawyer?

Any ideas, what else I could do?

I’m really @#$%!

Google Desktop Hangs MS Compiler, con’t

To my surprise, Google contacted me the day after my posting. Apparently I must have triggered one of their keywords, or there really are people, reading this blog. 😉

Anyway, they asked me to send them more information, which I happily did.

Maybe we see a new version of Google Desktop soon, which has this problem fixed.

I was just happy with that reaction. They could just have ignored it, too.
