In all honesty, I don't know why people are "so much" hate contracts? You know, I need the service anyway and in all likely hood I stay on the same carrier for two years, why "so much" hate?
- alimoeeny 14y agoI understand that, freedom is always better, but what I see is the dislike of contracts is not proportional to the reality of contracts discomfort. You can always buy yourself out of the contract.
- imgabe 14y agoIt's the fact that "subsidized phone + 2 year contract" ends up costing you more money than "full price phone + no contract". Yes, you are in all likelihood going to be paying for some phone service or another for the next two years. Would you rather be paying $130 a month or $50 a month?
- Karunamon 14y agoRationally they work out in your interest anyways - such shenanigans as price hikes and whatnot are disallowed under contract. If they change the rate or the service, you get out of your contract for free. As a result, most carriers don't mess with their contracted customers. The fact I'm on contract with Verizon right now is the only reason I still have unlimited data. (Though with their prices, you can bet I'm jumping to Ting or similar the freaking nanosecond it expires).
