If you are considering using Alltel as your cell phone provider; RUN to any other firm. If Alltel has any business scruples, they probably stole them from somebody! I had a two year contract with them on which I paid faithfully every month even though the service was terrible. At the end of the contract, I switched to another provider and flatly refused to pay the last month's fee because they had not provided the service for which I was paying (enough was enough). I got several nasty letters from them but stood my ground. I learned that Alltel had placed an entry in my credit report for this "bad debt" and had suckered a collection agency into taking over the debt. I've been receiving phone calls from Alliance One for almost a year that I ignore and will continue to do so. The amount of this "bad debt?" A whopping $79.00! While I can easily pay the amount, there is a principle involved here. I'm getting my revenge; during the period of this silly mess, I've convinced a whole bunch of people to avoid Alltel; I hope you are one of them.
