    Question 5755 Text Messages in a Month

    I got a wonderful phone call this morning. It was from Sprint's billing department, and they figured they should call because of a oddly high monthly phone bill. Which was $1,500 and some change. I about Shit my pants. So I said thank you for the heads up, and went home to check what the hell was going on.

    Well, someone got a hold of my spare line. Then decided to go to town. 1286 minutes in phone calls, 6 directory assistances, and get this, 5755 text messages. Who in the hell can text that many times in a month?

    They are already up to 1055 for this month. Unreal.

    I currently have Sprint working on clearing all those charges off, and suspended that line.

    I thought I would just vent that out. It was just incredible to me how many text messages were done.

    Not fooling me bro, I've known you long enough.

    You were chatting with some sexy ladies from the internet, then things must've went south. I bet you even rented the phone line out to help your story, to avoid paying what already was going to be a high bill, you slick f*ck.

    Wow, sorry to hear that, hope you dont have to pay any of it. I dont do text messages, and only have cell phones do to my business.

    I just got off the phone with the Sprint Freud Department. They said it should be cleaned up in 10 days, and I have the line suspended. I will be checking on their progress, of coarse.

    I misplaced the phone, and have been looking for it for the last few months. I thought my wife had it, but she didn't. It must of fell out of one of our cars. Or one of her friends took it, she has some pretty shady friends.

    Nah, c'mon man! Shady people in Nevada? Right there in Las Vegas? No way, I don't believe it.

    Glad you didn't get the royal screws put to you in the deal, lòóker.

    That is just an unreal amount of text messages. You must be hard at work trying to find out who f!@#ed with your line. That sucks man.

    I would think it would be very difficult to type that many texts on todays phones.....cumbersome at best.

    Well they did clean up all those charges. I am still amazed that anyone person can text message that much in a month. That is about 182 texts a day.

    We were separated at the time. That is why the phone was misplaced.

    I hate cell phones. I only have one because that is the smart thing to do when you drive an hour to work and back every day.

    I have Sprint, too....glad to see that they took care of you.

    Yep, we sure could. But you'd have to actually catch me when my phone is on. I keep it off when I am at work and when I get home. I am a jerk like that.

    Well mine is my main phone. So I would leave it up to you to call.

    Bill has my number, but when he has called, he went into my voicemail. I don't have a main home phone, either. Why do people even have them anymore?
