cell phone carriers

Submitted by Nora Dunn on December 6, 2007 - 18:28.

I remember when my contract ended with a cell phone carrier I had, I did a little shopping around for different carriers and plans. I then called my company and said that now that the contract was up, I noticed I could get better deals elsewhere, and was there anything they could do to retain my business. (I said it in an entirely friendly way, non-confrontational).

Wouldn't you know it, they gave me a new phone, and cut my costs almost in half! I of course had to sign another 12 month contract, but it was well worth it in the end.

All it took was a phone call!
