Xingular Xucks!

I switched my cell phone from Xingular when they bought AT&Wireless. I had the AT&T account for over 3 years, canceled my account on Febuary 7, 2006. I sent them a check for on Feb 17th for $75.00 or so.

So they want me to pay them for 21 days of service that I didn’t use.

Yeah, right!

Where does an Irish family go on vacation?
