In honor of the year-old birthday of the AR Group Crap-Tacular -- which I encourage everyone to join -- I'm sitting at the party, currently on HOLD with Cricket.
A four-digit code . . . and four-digit code. My Kingdom for a four-digit code!!
My apologies to Shakespeare and Richard III
My son, who pays the Cricket bill since I'm on his plan, didn't pay the bill and I have no cell phone service at the moment.
When I called to pay, they took my money! They were very happy to do that . . .
They instructed me: "You will have to turn your phone off, then turn it back on again. Your service will be on."
So I did that . . . and I got a nice little text message saying "Thanks, we received your payment!"
You know what . . . there were NO CRICKETS CHIRPING!!
I had no cell coverage.
Okay, no problem . . . I call them back . . . they will allow cell phone service to call them apparently.
They asked for the four-digit code on the account. I don't have a four-digit code, my son set the account up. I have no clue what the four-digit account is.
Hmmmmmmm . . . maybe I should call him?!?!?
Oh snap . . . I can't. I have no cell phone service.
They told me "We're sorry ma'am. Without the four-digit code, we can't access your account."
"BUT YOU DIDN'T HAVE A FOUR-DIGIT CODE WHEN YOU TOOK MY MONEY!"
"That's correct ma'am. We can take payment without the four-digit code, but we can't access your account without the four-digit code.
