An article in the WSJ this morning talks about T-Mobile lowering the credit requirement to finance a new phone, because not all customers qualify for financing. This line in the article though makes me want to facepunch someone, or something:
"T-Mobile contends that wireless service is essential so customers would skip payments on other bills before risking being disconnected".
So, in other words, I may not have water or electric, but by gum I'm gonna have my phone! SMFH!
