I knew I should have kept my contract! haha I'll find one online thanks for the suggestions.

I'm going to the part of my g/f's house that has 0 bars and calling from there and give them my P/O attitude and tell them to cancel my line. We'll see if it works haha.

Anybody know how? I'm coming up on my 1 year of the 2 years contract and I know that cell phone shops can do the cancelling for me some how, but how do I do it myself? The cell shops either will do it for me free if I sign up another 2 year contract with T-Mobile or charge me $50 per line (I have two lines).

I want to get into ATT b/c Tmobile reception sucks in my area especially at my g/f's house which is where we have the mailing address at, but not enough to justify getting a cancellation (I tried calling).

Ideas?
Read your original contract very very closely. I had this happen after adding a 3rd phone to my Verizon account. An "insider" tipped me to an opening to cancel that phone because there was a clause in the contract that (paraphrasing now) if Verizon changed or added any fee during the previous 6 months and I disagree to that change, I could cancel the contract w/o fee.

What they had done was upped one of the Federal fees by something like 6 cents a month. I called and said I noting that I took exception to that change and while I didn't want to cancel my entire contract, I wanted to cancel one phone. I pointed out that specific clause and It was handled, the new line dropped, no cancellation charge!!

Alternatively, whenever a policy change with your T-Mobile contract is about to go
in effect, check for additional fees etc. Call them up and state that you do not agree
with these charges and would like to be out of your contract. Again, no additional fees.

Good luck.
+1 --- I just posted the example how I canceled one of my Verizon cell accounts using the same approach!
