I trust people entirely too much. My faith in humankind is ridiculous. Just a lil advice to you guys. If you ever thought of allowing a friend of yours get anything in your name, do your self a favor and slap yourself in the face. That had to be the most stupid thing I could have ever done because now I'm paying for it, literally. My dumbass allowed this so called friend to get a phone in my name once he convinced me that he really needed one and that he would definately pay the bill ontime. I mean, why would someone invest 200 dollars in a phone if they weren't going to pay the bill right?
So I get the first bill which totaled up to just over 300 dollars(not including my bill). I call him up 2 weeks before the bill is due and he reassures me that he will pay the bill. I call him up again a day before the bill is due and he tells me that he gets paid that evening and that he will pay the bill the next day. Cutting it kinda close aren't we? But I'm cool just as long as it gets paid. After all , I intend to change over responsiblity of the line to him once the bill is taken care of. Much to my dismay, I get a text message from T-mobile 6 days later telling me my bill is overdue. Surely this must be some mistake right? I call him up and he tells me that he paid the bill on the following Tuesday (which would make it 3 days late) So I call T-mobile and they tell me that they have no record of him paying anything. So I call him back angry, but he stands firm and reassures me that he paid the bill. I asked him to get the reciept so we can call T-mobile with the conformation #. He agrees to call me as soon as he gets home. Out the blue, Mr. A-hole hits me up on yahoo messenger saying "I know you are upset with me, but the bank made an error and thats why it looks like I never paid. The bank will be refunding my money in a week and a half and I'll pay the bill." But if it was a bank error then why havent I been able to contact you over these past few days? "We'll I had to take my son to the hospital that night and he has been in ever since. I know I should've called and I'm sorry" I felt this was a crock of shyt but I tell him to just send me the money Western Union, since the bill has already been paid and once I recieve it we can put the phone in his name and then he can turn the phone back on. He agrees . So I am currently waiting on that week and a half to be up. In the meantime I get my next T-mobile bill inside of the biggest envelope I have ever seen. I died on the inside because I knew that apparently I didn't cut his line off soon enough. His new bill. ladies and gents, has topped out at an amazing $686.77!!!!!!!!!!! I happened to be on the phone with a close friend of mine who tried to console me and offer solutions while I ranted and raved about how dumb I was and how much of dickhead Mr. A-hole is. How in the hell do you go over your minutes by 1500? I haven't spoken to this culprit yet but Igot a feeling I'm gonna be coming out of my pocket once more. After this fiasco I will be out of damn near $1000 dollars. Well kiddies, I hope you learned your lesson because I most certainly learned mine. Im off to class and to figure out how I'm gonna get out of this one. Ill keep yall posted. |
