…just another random person's thoughts & digressions.
Dry summer weather has not only affected the legal agricultural crops… Marijuana has been affected as well…
In regards to the Elizabethtown DCBS office, state investigators found an “office that thrived on the power of controlling families by removing children from their biological parents and terminating their parental rights. Investigators said supervisors there were allowed to accept, reject or alter established procedures at will.”
Disturbing…
While I believe that wireless contracts aren’t that difficult to understand (commonly it’s misconceptions and misinterpretations of the customer’s), I believe that this bill would be very helpful. Having the ability to terminate within the first thirty days of service, without facing termination fees is a great idea–the only trick, however, is that consumers would surely have to face the pains of having a non-refundable deposit if their equipment wasn’t returned in the same condition it was sold–otherwise the prices of handsets will have to be a little bit more expensive (where they are typically sold at a cheaper rate, where a discounted price is offered where the commitment for service is made)
