Funny How Life Does Sometimes

Back about 2010 I had reason to get a cell phone for a period of time. We had to go with Verizon. I had a very frustrating experience with them and I vowed that I would never do business with them again. Years go by and I don't even think I will ever get a cell phone until I see a Tracfone advertised on HSN about 4 years ago. I've been a fan ever since. We'll about 4-6 months ago I learned that Verizon has bought Tracfone and I now have this brand in my life again. Ugh!

There is an old saying that goes "Never say never." in life.

I'm sorry you're with Verizon again. At least the Tracfone is working well for you.

Oh, that's kind of funny though, but I know it's also aggravating. I have a government phone and it has been awesome. I absolutely love it, but before the government phone i had to prepaid ATT phone and it was also great.

My daughter had a government phone for a while. AT&T is more expensive.
