not at&t. i went to a store today, asked if i could demo a wwan card before
renewing my contract. was told that no demo cards are available, all i could do
is buy one for $100+, plus adding some ridiculous amount of money per month to
my plan, plus an activation fee. oh, and if it didn't work out there was a $70
restocking fee, and the other service fees were non-refundable. needless to say
i laughed and walked out.
if there is any business in america with lower standards of customer service i
hope never to see it.
