How can you say this is funny? You *stiffed* a company out of about $2,000 because they were willing to take a chance on you and this is funny?Dude, you certainly have a marred sense of humor.

I cannot and will not judge you not only because I don't know you but because I couldn't care enough to, but it's people with your mentality that make it hard for others with bad credit that are trying to get in shape (i.e.: a lot of people close to me), have a chance to do so. Thanks a plenty!

P.S.: Not that I am grammarian (I am sure there are TONS of typos and grammatical errors in this post), but try to capitalize (which, apparently, you do well but in a different sense of the word) the beginnings of sentences more than once in a while.]]>Jul 22nd 2007 3:10AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 4:47AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/

Get a phone with one of the big 4 and get over it.

Also, does anyone know if they charged for that text message?

P.S. I am so sorry to all of those that Amp'd effed over, I know that those of us that worked at Sento, the company that Amp'd outsourced its customer service to, tried REALLY hard. We were not given the resources, and we were often times lied to as much as the customers. If it makes you feel any better, they laid us off about two months ago. ]]>Jul 28th 2007 3:35PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 4:49AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 5:46AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 23rd 2007 8:02AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 8:38AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 23rd 2007 9:58AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 10:33AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 12:57PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 1:21PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 4:35PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 5:32PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 22nd 2007 6:08PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 23rd 2007 4:24AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/-------------------

Is Amp'd going out of business?
Amp'd is potentially suspending US operations on July 24th.

I wonder if the Amp'd customers are the same customers that rent furniture and use payday loan services. Maybe Amp'd should have cross promoted with those companies to build a larger customer base of deadbeats and down-on-their-luck people.]]>Jul 23rd 2007 4:57PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 23rd 2007 7:21PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 24th 2007 5:00AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/

We would need a strong nationwide WiFi network owned by one company or free for it to kill cell phones. The most we have so far is WiFi service covering most of a city. Thats a long way to go before you can use your internet phone anywhere.

Dont you think that if nationwide WiFi gets close the cell phone companies will buy up the networks so they can still charge you for usage. Or more realistically, any nationwide WiFi network would probably be provided by cell phone companies since they have the infrastructure & towers to attach transmitters.

Incoming and outgoing calls use the network the same amount so why shouldn’t you have to pay for them? Have fun looking for a pay phone the next 10+ years. Feefree, look at the bright side, a pay phone doesn’t charge you for incoming calls.]]>Jul 25th 2007 2:55PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/
Cell companies are only getting paid once per call, not twice. Minutes are used on the network no matter if its incoming or outgoing. Its this lack of understanding and cheap mentality that makes cell phone companies not want to spend money marketing to Amp’d customers. Why spend money to get a cheap customer who wont pay their bill or will constantly complain using up costly customer service hours.]]>Jul 25th 2007 3:06PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 25th 2007 3:14PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 31st 2007 9:13AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 30th 2007 4:19PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Jul 30th 2007 4:38PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/Aug 2nd 2007 1:15PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/"educated idiots"! ampd mobil rocked]]>Aug 11th 2007 8:41AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/22/ampd-mobile-to-shut-down-july-24-at-12-01am/
