Ya, cricket broadband, waited til last 30 seconds on a bid that was 145, clicked bid, and it was up to 163, so I put in 165 and placed, and it popped up that someone beat me at 170. I was mad.

no prob, hope it works out for you

and man that sucks, i hear my little brother complain about that regularly, lag in the system causes him to lose about once a week, aggravating

Thanks everyone for the insight. I have no idea how sprint works as far as how they are with phones and activation besides bad esn's. When I get switched, I'll post (boy is the wife going to be pissed, she has no idea I'm doing this, she thinks I just trying to replace or fix my current phone/line of service). And my 14 year old (with not so hot grades) asked if he could get a phone.

well in a way you are fixing your phone and service just let her know its for the better and you're trying to do it as inexpensively as possible. as for the kid, cut a deal make them improve and sprint can always suspend a line if grades slip again
good luck!

Oh no, he'll get cricket. I supprised him with a phone when he started 6th grade. His grades, ability to keep up with homework, all around attitude determined if he kept it. Lost it on first report card, and hasn't been able to perform better than barely passing, with the mightier than though attitude since. He needs some workin just to EARN a cricket phone now.

so i take it they got you taken care of?

Yep, now to go to cricket and turn my phone off so i can port my number to sprint. Sell 2 titans and 1 touch pro that are on cricket with bad esn, and have issues of their own to offset the cost of the sprint purchase. Tell my wife I even did it (oh that is going to hurt) and find a job to help smooth her out.

Just got off phone with sprint. They ported my cricket number for me. Should take 15 minutes. Tomorrow I'll go to cricket and cancel that line. I just paid that bill too, I hope they credit my account for for next month.
