Not a pre-pay phone but a contract account.

most companies checking credit to give you either a credit card or cell phone etc would like to see a minimum of about 620, if you have atleats 670 you can get better interest rates on loans and better credit deals.

ANY job that requires you to pay money that is not for training purposes is NOT legit, end of story.

You might try Consumer Cellular. It's $9.95 a month and the phone is free. It's perfect for people who seldom use their phone. \n\nhttp://www.consumercellular.com/

No there isn't, it's what is known as a PHISHING scam intended to fool you into giving out your bank details in order for the fuckwit who sent it to steal money out of your account.\n\nA search on Google just to proove it brings up:\nhttp://www.hilton.com/en/ww/promotions/spoofing/index.jhtml\nhttp://www.419legal.org/viewtopic.php?p=11227&\nhttp://www.joewein.net/419/419-phone-uk.htm

Depending on what cellular provider you use, they should have an account feature you can add that will allow the calls to come through. This is on a pre-paid basis most of the time. Otherwise, your friend will have to get a hook-up on a 3-way!!!

At month end, you need to credit prepaid expenses with one twelfth (one month's worth) of the cost, and debit the cost account in the P & L account, called something like 'communication costs'.

No this is not legal! You get your wages and then YOU pay your bills. My company does not pay my bills for me!

Yes.. I'm not sure how you get it... but there is..because we all just got warning that there is going to be a no call list you will have to put your cell phone on as well to avoid getting telemarketing calls.. \n\nI think that ought to illegal.. why should I have to pay for their advertisement with MY MINUTES?..It's just not right!\n\nI'll look for that old e-mail for a number to call for no call list\n\nedit: Sorry everyone..I must have deleted it.. I thought I still had it.. but there is a number.. call directory and see if it's available in your area..mine may not have been for your state anyway.. but I highly suggest it.. we put all of our company cell phones on it, and I put my personal on it.....my one pet peeve : telemarketers!!!

I had the same problem as you last year, when I was conned into getting a phone through SMS (claiming to work on behalf of Orange).  They sent me a new phone also a new number, (which I didnt request) which meant I was going to be paying 2 contracts at once.  I was not happy.\n\nI spoke with Orange and asked them to put the new phone on hold.  and eventually spoke with someone from SMS.  It was all sorted in the end, but my main problem was that at midnight on the 2nd day my new number kicked in and I was unable to use my real phone for a while.\n\nIt taught me a really valuable lesson.  I will never buy anything over the phone ever again!

I'd call the police.  What you're describing is a crime, not merely a financial/contract issue.  It's like he's running a scam.  If the police won't do anything, then go to the magistrates office and file against him.  The secretary in the magistrates office will help you fill out the forms.  After you win before the magistrate, you can do a sherrif's sale on his personal property to collect your deposit and any court costs you incurred if he doesn't pay you in a timely manner.\n\nEdited to FocalBlur:  He/she paid by cash but has a receipt.  Even though there's no contract, he/she has a case because people don't just give money to people for no reason--a service should be rendered.  I agree saving the advertisements, keeping a log of phone calls, what was said on what date and what occurred, will back up the case.  But he/she's not screwed for paying cash since he/she did get a reciept.

You need to go to the branch where you made the payment, and you might just have to grease their theiving palms to do it. Natwest used to charge a 5iver
