Fucking seriously, I have spent 3 days trying to transfer a phone number from one carrier to a new one. My old carrier got bought out and now the service is being ruined so everyone will transfer to the parent companies service which is stupid expensive. So I’m going to a completely different provider cause fuck em. Yet the “account #” for each of the numbers I have on my plan is fucking different. One used the sim card number the other the IMEI number. Yet both phones lost the sim number on the website. I spent 3 days trying to get this number to transfer using the fucking sim card. Then I finally call these fuckers and they tell me it’s the phones IMEI. So I have to call my new provider and have them reset the transfer request. Like wtf? Why does capitalism have to fuck everything up into the most awful and convoluted bullshit? I mean, I know why, it’s a rhetorical question but fucking fuck. This shit should just be a government supplied service. You shouldn’t have to “shop around” and change your service ever. It’s such bullshit.

Ok rant over.

    There is not end to the bottomless pit of hatred I have for capitalism.

    As much as it pains me… Google Fi has the best prices I have seen of you have 3 or more lines and/or don’t use very much data solo. I hate giving those evil fucks money but like, what do you do?
