[Urgent]Need your help[/Urgent]
« on: August 25, 2009, 05:54:49 AM »
Hey guys. I got huge news (at least for me). I got my first CELLPHONE!!

The phone is called the Samsung VICE.  It's getting activated today. My mom has a special deal because with the Federal Gvt. and she gets 50% off a plan. 

200 normal minutes
Unlimited evenings AND weekends
7 c/min long distance in Canada (as opposed to 10)
15 c/min long distance to USA (as opposed to 20)
15 c/text message (including incoming, but I can add unlimited for more)
5 c/kb Internet OUCH (unlimited is 10$ more per month)
FREE Call Display
FREE Voicemail

And a whole bunch of other stuff. I have to see the whole list.

And did I mention that all that is $12.50 per month?

So, when I get the call on my cell that it's been activated, (here's where I need your help)
WHAT SHOULD I DO FIRST?

I'd be reading the manual while waiting for activation...this should give you a head start.
You may want to start collecting your contact info...calling someone and then saving the # is quicker than entering everything manually...

Sounds like a lot but 200 minutes will go in a flash. Best be careful..

You should call your local bowling alley and when the guy answers ask him if he has ten pound balls. When he says "yes", ask him how he walks around with those things.

Aparently the guy who I got it from didn't program it, so I called them up and a better worker lead me through the programing. I then did the test call and it worked!

OK, now call the bowling alley.  Then call the drug store or tobacco shop and ask if they have Prince Albert in a can...   ;D


Congratulations!

I forgot about that!

"Do you have "Prince Albert" in a can?"  (Old time tobacco.)
"Yes, we do."
"Well, you'd better let him out before he suffocates!"
