I can't wait until my contract ends!

Couldn't believe it...Phone customer care to ask if and increase from 10Mb download to 40Mb download would increase my contract length.........?
Yes it would.................Not this callsign I can't wait until I get Sky!
Remember that if you live on the outskirts of an area you are charged the same but don't get the same speeds!

  • I HATE the Droid "Incredible" and I can't wait till my contract ends!

    I'VE BEEN WITH VERIZON FOR 9 YEARS AND I'M SO OVER THERE SERVICE! I HAVE HAD THIS PIECE OF CRAP PHONE FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS (20 MONTHS TO BE EXACT) AND IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS AND ISSUES
    FOR STARTERS, (removed to comply with VZW Community ToS)! I HAVE A CHARGER AT HOME, IN THE CAR AND AT WORK. I'VE TRIED TURING OFF THE GPS TO SAVE SOME LIFE BUT THAT DOESN'T HELP. I HARDLY USE THE INTERNET, BUT GOD FORBID I CHECK MY EMAIL BECAUSE THAT WILL MEAN MY FULLY CHARGED BAR IS NOW AT 50%. YES, I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT GETTING A NEW BATTERY. I MIGHT AS WELL GET A NEW BATTERY EVERY 3 MONTHS THEN. BELIEVE ME, THE "SUPPORT" TECHS THAT I'VE DEALT WITH DON'T KNOW ANY MORE THAN WHAT I ALREADY KNEW! "RESTART YOUR PHONE." "TAKE THE BATTERY OUT." "MAKE SURE YOU UPGRADE." HOW ABOUT GIVING ME A FREAKING PHONE THAT FREAKING WORKS!! I'VE UPGRADED THE SOFTWARE BEFORE AND IT SEEM TO HAVE MADE IT EVEN WORSE!
    DROPPED CALLS ARE MY FAVORITE PASTIME WITH THIS PHONE. YEA, I LIKE HAVING AN IMPORTANT CONVERSATION JUST TO HAVE THE CALL DROPPED. I HAVE TO CRAMP MYSELF IN A CORNER JUST TO MAKE A CALL, AND NO I DO NOT LIVE UP IN THE TREES. THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE WITH ME HAVE VERIZON AND CAN MAKE CALLS JUST FINE.
    OH, I ALSO LOVE WHEN MY PHONE IS FINALLY CHARGED (AFTER 3 HOURS) AND I UNPLUG IT AND MY PHONE SHUTS OFF. NO BUTTONS PRESSED. IT JUST SHUTS OFF. IT ALSO SHUTS OFF ON ITS OWN WHEN I TEXT TOO MUCH AND I JUST LOVE HOW IT FREEZES WHEN I USE THE CAMERA. ALLOWING ME TO HAVE TO TAKE THE BATTERY OUT (AGAIN) JUST SO I CAN GET IT TO WORK PROPERLY.
    VERIZON OFFERS NO "SUPPORT". I HAVE TO WAIT TILL MY RIDICULOUS 2 YEAR CONTRACT TO END IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET A NEW PHONE. UNLESS OF COURSE I WANT TO SHELL OUT $500+ FOR A NEW ONE TODAY. I ALREADY PAY A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT EVERY MONTH FOR MY CRAPPY CONTRACT, SO NO. YOU WILL NOT BE NICKEL AND DIMMING ME ANY FURTHER. THERE ARE OTHER PHONE CARRIERS THAT OFFER MY SAME PLAN AND FOR LESS AND WITH THE PHONE I WANT. I REALLY THOUGHT BEING A LOYAL CUSTOMER STILL MEANT SOMETHING THESE DAYS, BUT WHO AM I KIDDING. I'M JUST A DROP IN THE BUCKET TO THEM.

        Gjr8103, I agree with you! Having issues with your phone is never a good time and I’m here to help! I want you to have a working phone that you’re happy with and would hate to lose you as a customer. Let’s get to the bottom of this!
    From what you mentioned it seems you’re having quite a few issues. Did they start after a recent software update? How long is your battery lasting? Is the phone charging completely? Keep in mind the battery life depends on the usage and Internet access will definitely use up the battery faster.
    Let make sure a third party app previously downloaded on the phone isn’t causing the problems. Run the device in safe mode http://bit.ly/p5eed2 and see if you notice a difference. If you see an improvement you will need to delete all third party apps and reinstall them one at a time to determine which one is causing the problem.
    If there is no improvement while in Safe Mode the next step would be a hard reset. Since you are having so many issues with the phone a hard reset is highly recommended. This will even help out with the dropped calls your experiencing.  I know this can be very inconvenient to do but, it’s a very important step in getting these issues resolved.
    If you are still having the same issue after the hard reset http://bit.ly/oOaRQt please send me a DM with your name and mobile so I can access your account and see what options are available to you.

  • How can I wait until a Swing.Timer has finished?

    I have a Swing.Timer runing which displays some animated text (more precisely it fades out a text with a delay of 50 until all characters are erased.
    Afterwards a time consuming operation shall begin. How can I achieve that this operation waits to start until the text has been faded out? The time to fade out the text depends on the length of the text, of course.
    So, how can I make the operation waiting until the Timer has finished its work?
    Thanks,
    Dirk

                else
                    label.setForeground(color);
                    label.setText(text);
                    Timer timer = (Timer)e.getSource();
                    timer.stop();
                    // ***** start process here ***
            }The timer here continues until a condition is satisfied (here it's where the Stringbuffer that holds the text that is sent to the JLabel is empty). So all you have to do is place any code that needs to happen when the Timer ends in the else block. It's so simple as to be trivial.

  • Can Siri wait until I'm finished?

    I’ve figured out how to dictate to Siri speaking out punctuation, and she usually does very well with the resulting message. But, unless I’m only sending a one-sentence message, I need to stop for a moment to think about the next sentence and punctuation. As soon as I pause, she thinks I’ve finished and takes the next step to compose the message. It’s rather humorous how I sometimes “practice” saying it all in advance so I don’t have to stop during dictation, but sometimes I can’t get it all out without a pause. Is there any way to keep Siri quiet until I’m done?

    Siri is activated when you press and hold the home button. But what Jonathan means is that on any screen where a keyboard pops up, there should be a microphone icon in the lower left to start dictating.
    Tap Done when done.

  • Can't wait to leave BT!

    Firstly I ordered the new infinity Internet and everything was fine. The engineer came out and fitted my modem and phone in the hallway when I specifically asked it to be fitted in the living room. The Internet is no better than the sky Internet I get free with my tv package and doesn't connect if I'm in my living room, bare in mind i only have a 3bed semi!! Every month I have the same issue! Bt take the money out of my account days before I get paid causing me to get bank charges so i cancelled the direct debit as when I called up I was told I couldn't change my direct debit date. Now every month I get charged by bt for late payment and my services get cut off! I have no clue what my account number is as I have never received a letter or bill so when I call to pay my bill i get through to an automated service that asks for my account number and will not proceed without it, it also asks how much I want to pay when u haven't seen a bill so don't know how much I owe!!
    Such an awful experience with BT that I can't wait for my contract to end and I'm out!!!!

    These sorts of postings always confuse me !   If you get paid once per month, and BT take their direct debit once per month, why the bank charges ?   It shouldn't make any difference whether the DD goes out on the 1st of the month or on the 30th.
    What IS annoying is when payments are taken late one month and then early the next, so that (sometimes) a payment due towards the end of the month is not taken until a day or two into the next month, and then a second payment goes out at the end of that same month.   But even then it shouldn't make any difference - in theory - if it is budgeted for.
    I thoroughly agree though that saying "sorry you can't change your payment date" when you are paying by DD is very poor customer service, especially when you consider that those (like me) who get a monthy bill and pay manually get given a couple of weeks to make the payment !

  • Creating a delay in labview until a c program completes in system exec.vi without using "wait until completeion"

    I want to run two related C programs. The second one reads a text file that the first created. So I need to wait until the first is completed.
    I use "system exec.vi" and I know I can set "wait until completeion" to true, but this way I won't see the screen and the C program announcments. Someone has an idea?

    Hi Dror,
    my idea: just wait for the text file created by the first C program. Check for the presence of this file (maybe using 'list directory') or check for the size of this file...

  • Restoring iPad - do i need to enter apple password immediately or can i wait?

    I am helping someone restore their iPad as after they updated to iOS 7 it asked for a passcode which they never had.
    I have restored the iPad and am at the point now where it is askin for their apple ID to activate the iPad. The person I am doing this for is not with me at the moment and I don't have their number (doing it for a someone at work). Can I wait until tomorrow when I can meet up with them and finish it or do I need it now?
    Thanks

    After installing iOS 7 you may be asked to provide a passcode; if you haven't ever defined one...
    If you don't see the word "skip" in small blue letters try the following.  Otherwise tap "skip".
    Enter any number and remember what it is.  See if this lets you in.  If so, go to Settings>General>passcode lock.  enter the number and then you can turn off passcode (a vary bad idea, as many have discovered when their devices were stolem) or turn off and then on using a different number.
    If your device is disabled at this point...
    Connect to your computer in recovery mode per the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    You may need to do this more than once.

  • Wait until done

    Hi,
    When I launch a subvi from a vi using a call by reference node, how can I tell it I am not interesting in wait until done, similar to invoke Method:run VI where I can set wait until done to false.
    Thanks,
    ToNi.

    My problem is that from one vi I call another subvi and I pass several parameters using a call by reference node. I want from subvi, close reference of the vi but I can't.
    Using a invoke node I can't pass parameters to subvi but I don't need to wait until subvi done, but the problem is that I want to call subvi with a call by reference node because I need to pass parameters to subvi but if I use a call by reference I have to wait the subvi to finish execution and then I can't close the vi reference from my subvi.
    How Can I do it? I want to pass parameters from my vi to my subvi and from my subvi I want to close the vi that has called my subvi.
    Thanks,
    A lot of people from here have helped me with a lot of examples, but the problem is that these examples don't work when I pass parameters from my vi to a subvi and from my subvi close the reference of the vi that has called my subvi.

  • Contract ending soon...wait for the iPhone 5?

    My contract ends on 6/4/11 and I'm thinking about waiting until the summer to see if there will be a Verizon iPhone 5 since I don't want to buy the iPhone 4 now and have it be obsolete within a few months.
    If the iPhone 5 does come out later on in June or July, my contract will already be over. I've heard that contracts continue on a month-by-month basis if you don't cancel it but I can't find any specific info on the site. Is that true?
    Suggestions?

    a couple of ways to look at this, of course this is amongst the dozens of threads already discussing this
    1. "IF" a new one comes out in june the iphone 4 is not obsolete, it is still a great, fast phone that will continue to get updates as Apple releases them
    2. Buy now, if a new one comes out in june, you can get like $400 or so on ebay and buy the new one
    3. there is most likely a new iphone coming for att in June,  NO ONE knows if it will be for Verizon also, so you may be waiting for absolutely nothing
    4. and the most obvious most given answer, If you keep waiting for the next best thing, you will never own anything
    My other phone, the droid inc is older then the iphone 4, A LOT of droid phone have been released after it and my Inc is still not even close to being obsolete, it runs fine.
    Maybe at this point I finally will say the iphone 3g, not 3gs, is almost obsolete because 4.2 killed it and it's terribly slow, that phone is almost 3 years old and its just becoming obsolete, I still sold it however for almost $200 on ebay so it still holds the value, I sold it for what i paid 2 years later

  • I'm 17, can I use apple finance to purchase a MacBook or do I have to wait until I turn 18?

    I'm at college, and really need a laptop ASAP as our computer has just completely crashed and I really need it for college work. I'm 18 in 2 months and would wait until then but I have alot of coursework to do before then and a laptop would make life so much easier. I have a part-time job and earn enough to pay back the money each month, but I'm not sure if I can use it being under 18? I've looked all over the site but can't find anything on minimum age.

    You'll have to wait till your 18. You will have to sign a contract. In the United States people under the age of 18 can not sign a contract. And if you do sign a contract, the contract can not be enforced. Have your parents sign for you.

  • I am trying to authorise my new macbook air and it won't let me. I try to de-authorise all the other computers and it says I can only do this once a year and have to wait until the 7th Feb. It does not give me an option to authorise this computer

    Always remember to 'de-authorize' you computer when selling or sending for service. If sending for repairs you might not get the same mother board or HD back and some how this counts as an authorized computer against your count.

  • I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Doctor says connected fine.

    I am currently volunteering in Uganda, so data is precious. I can no longer afford unlimited data, I pay by MB/GB. All of a sudden Mail has stopped receiving. I wait until about 60meg, but no new mail. Using Gmail. Connectivity Doctor says connected fine. No probs there. And weirdly, when I want to send an email. I write it, it takes absolutely ages to try to send but as soon as I click disconnect it sends the email. Very odd. I would just love to be able to write all my emails offline and save to drafts/Outbox and then just connect to send and check emails then disconnect again.

        I can see that this issue has been quite extensive, and frustrating, and I am so sorry for all that has happened societygirl! I would like to help you work this issue out.

  • How to make VI wait until data is saved before it can open and read data

    I have developed two VIs for continuous monitoring. First VI is for acquiring raw strain data and saving it into a folder, let's say, every 10 minutes or every 100 Mbyte of data (for example, after monitoring for an hour, the folder will have 6 files, each of which contains 10 minutes of data). Second VI is for opening/reading/processing data files collected by the first VI.   Right now, this second VI can handle only one file at a time. What I am trying to do is to have this second VI open the files one after another automatically. Also (here is what I think will be difficult part), I want the second VI recognize that a file is saved by the first VI before opening it (i.e., wait until the first 10 minutes of data file is saved by first VI, open and process this first data, wait until the second 10 minutes of data file is saved by first VI, open this second file and process it, wait until the third 10 minutes of data file is saved by first VI, open and process it........). Any help or comments would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Brdg.

    Basically, If your purpose is to keep one thread from opening the file until the DAQ thread has finished with it, then the queue is what I would use.
    All functions are on the ADVANCED | SYNCHRONIZATION | QUEUE palette.
    Use the OBTAIN QUEUE to create the queue. Set the DATA TYPE to a PATH constant. This creates a queue of paths.
    Pass the QUEUE REFNUM to both the DAQ VI, and the PROCESSING vi.
    In the DAQ VI, when you write a file, take the PATH from the CLOSE FILE function and use ENQUEUE ELEMENT to put it into the queue (use the refnum you passed in).
    In the processing thread, use DEQUEUE ELEMENT to fetch the path from the queue. You probably should use a timeout value of 1000 mSec or so. If you timed out, go check your PROGRAM RUNNING flag (so you can stop without waiting forever on the queue), and if you're not stopped, try again.
    If the DEQUEUE ELEMENT returns WITHOUT a timeout, then open the path it gives you - the file is guaranteed to be closed, since you closed it before you enqueued it.
