July 13, 2012 - New phone!!

I'm so excited to get my new phone.  I've never had a top of the line phone before.  Now I just need to get used to it.  Lately I've mostly been using my iPod to check email and so on, so the Samsung Galaxy SIII is quite a change! 
I took a photo of it in the box because I was so excited to unwrap it.  It took a couple of hours before my SIM card was activated, but the customer service person with Bell was very polite and helpful.  I decided to switch over to Bell from Rogers.  For starters Bell has a great corporate plan with my employer that can't be beat by Rogers.  Also, I have been a Rogers customer for a long time (possibly over 10 years) and everytime I want to get a new phone, they always give us a hard time.  There is always some kind of reason why we can't upgrade or a change in my contracts expiry date that seems to move when I mention I want to get a new phone. 

So recently I called Rogers to confirm the actual day in July when my contract with them was over, and they told us that my contract didn't expire until September (we were told that July was the month way back in January).  So I was pretty annoyed at them.  At the moment I have two cell phones, my brand new Samsung SII and my old LG Neon (which doesn't work for more than an hour on a single charge). 
I was going to wait until September to get the new phone, but the Husband made me realize that we are already paying for a phone that doesn't work, so I should go ahead a get the new phone now.  I didn't get to keep my number, of course, but I'm not too upset about that.  How hard is it for people to update their contact information anyway?
