HER Phone: It's been two years. My wifes phone continued to produce collection calls. SO we turned OFF the phone ALL the time except when she was using it. Any incoming calls to her phone would meet with a stone wall. "The number you have called is not available. Voice mail has not been set up".
That seems to have worked. After a year and a half of this
Phone Off routine...the crank calls have dried up.
now we can leave the phone ON.
MY Phone: My phone has had an Excellent number. NO CRANK or Collection calls for two years. Silent.
Last week..My phone reverted to as though ..."UnActivated" all by itself. I had 780+ minutes and 23 days to go. I went around to my local Wal-Marts and Radio Shacks to see if they could FIX this. Blank Looks. Nobody was interested in helping me.
SO: Being as we were on "Staycation" this year and just doing daytrips..we descided to take a three hour ride (One Way) to the Gilford Wally-Mart (From RI) to see if MATT could fix my phone. Matt is till there, but had the day off when we got there so BONNIE took on the task. In ten minutes the phone was fixed.
Whoo Wooo. I can't say enough about the Service from the Gilford (Electronics Dept) Wally-Mart..and BONNIE. Thanks Bonnie.
