#verizon issues

[nancylou444]

I bought a new cellphone yesterday. 

Verizon wanted $80 for the phone AND $40 for an upgrade fee, which is ludicrous considering it’s a prepaid account. 

Anyway, I went over to Best Buy and got the same phone for $50. And NOOOOO upgrade fee. 

Then had to go back to Verizon to get a new (free) SIM card. They tried to get me to switch over to a contract plan but I wasn’t interested.

Anyhow, as to how it pertains to tumblr. 

I updated the app awhile ago and lost my tags (yeah so what else is new) and of course @support was no help at all in regards to WHY. 

Flash forward to yesterday. I”m using the app on my new phone and MY TAGS ARE THERE. Color me a happy girl. 

I guess this time it wasn’t the app’s fault. 🤣🤣😝😉

I bought this set of five a year ago and I’m still using the first one: amazon.com/gp/prod… ♥

Those are pretty. I’m not an Amazon shopper. But if I can’t find anything in my fave stores, I might get those.

Thanks. 💙

Try amazon or ebay, that’s where I get mine for less than $10 usually. If it’s a USB charger where the cord detaches from the plug, you only need the cord which is even cheaper.

True, the wall plug is an added piece, so all I really need is the cord itself. Thanks.

Verizon sucks!!

LMAO, I really don't have problems with verizon itself. But the in store staff leaves much to be desired.

The charger that came with the phone has too short a wire, so I went into the store to see if I can get a new charger. They want $35 for one.

I’m going to look in Best Buy to see if they have something cheaper.  I’ll also try Target and Staples. A charger shouldn’t cost half the price of the phone itself.
