Sprint Wireless Company holds services for ransom in emergency situations Nationwide

 Thank you to the individual who brought it to my attention that I left out key information in my report. It is appreciated. The extortion part of this complaint comes in when Cricket has refused to solve the problem that they caused unless I pay $130 which is more than my bill usually is and disregarding what they were already paid.

I applaud you for best laugh of the day on this joke of a post.  Oh..you are serious.  Then I feel sorry for you and your entitlement mentality.

As you have found out when you FAIL to pay your bills, companies don't like to provide service anymore.  It isn't "greed" when a company tries to hold you to a legal agreement you signed.  In this case the providing phone service in exchange for payment of that service.   You have failed to provide the payment in a timely manner as agreed and they have decided to disconnect your service.  

There was nothing in that agreement that said they had to "work" with you.  There was nothing that said you only had to pay if you could, there was nothing that said if someone loses a job they have to give you more time.   Oh and the "well it wsan't me it was my friend who can't pay". Buzz..wrong answer.  It is the SAME account so it doesn't matter who can't(won't) pay.

Now, if we were to extend this out.  I don't think I woudl be going too far out on a limb saying that you were only a few days behind.  My guess is at least 10 days and if it was 30+ days I would not be shocked.   I would also not be too shocked if this is not the first time you have been late.  

FYI even if your phone service is suspended it is very likely you still have access to Emergency Services such as 9-1-1.
