9 hours on...and it's still a clusterfuck.
Timeline:
3.30pm - Call T-Mo...get new number..advised it can take up to 2 hours.
5.45pm - No phone. Stop into T-Mo store. Account info partially moved to the new number, but old number still active.
Call to Customer Care made by Asst Store Manager...45 minutes later with a new smart card in the phone...it should be
active within 2 hours.
8pm - Call T-Mobile again. "Why did they do a smart card change? That was completely unneccesary. That will delay your
new number." I'm now *really* happy with this.
11pm - Still no phone. Call T-Mo. Can take up to 24 hours. (growl)
11:15pm - Call again, guess what. T-Mo is having "issues" with new service activations and new SIM cards. The delays have
been averaging 14 hours. Yes kids. From the 6pm time of the actual new number request...it could be 24 hours
plus the 14 hour delay because of their network issues. So I could be without service until 8am Monday. Color me happy.
In other news...
I managed to get enough $$ to get car insurance and keep my phone working (ha!).
However, I know have $5.82 (literally) to feed my pie hole (yeah Ramen diet!!) and put gas in my van for the next who knows how long. I have a roof over my head and job leads, but I'm totally flat ass broke. It sucks having a full time job lined up but not having it start until mid-August.
Overall, I'm happy and life is going in the right direction (job, car, place to live,

FYI...you made this a public post...and not sure you wanted everyone to know what your new cell number is. Just wanted to let you know.
*hugz*
I didn't mean to make it public with the number. I'd started typing it as a private post but then changed my mind mid-entry and left it as a public. I've edited it to remove the number...but considering the blasted service is still down...
