Been with straight talk for a few years now. They still have there issues like there big brothers. Get a generic unlocked phone that isn't attached to an existing carrier and try to get it hooked up to straight talks network :eek: That's an excercise in futility, and frustration like no other ;):rolleyes: Went through that scenario when I switched from my iPhone to a Galaxy S6. Finally got straight talk on the phone at the cell phone store in town with a stack of there phones :p Went down the line till I found one that would work for straight talk :) 12 hours on the phone to get a stinking cell phone hooked up :mad:

I feel your pain guys but that is the norm now.

I can say my company has excellent customer service for example if the phone rings more than twice it rolls to the next agent you will always get to speak to a live person. It may roll several times but in the end you get a person and no listen as our menu options have changed.

Off my soap box now and how fitting on my way to a doctors appointment.

I agree that automated phone systems are a PITA, but what really chaps my a$$ is having to write out by hand a complete medical history including drugs & supplements to each doctor, each time I have an appointment. Besides being a monumental waste of my time, by the 4th or 5th page my arthritis has my hands just about crippled. I've tried bringing a computer generated history from home, but few will accept it because "it isn't on our forms." I have now begun telling them "Either accept this history, or send me a stenographer who can take dictation, or find another patient."(patient=cash cow)
