BEWARE!
My son-who is 11, mistakenly signed up for IQ test, or something and gave his cell phone number for the results. (It was a banner on myspace.)
He came to me after the fact and I looked up on how you can cancel the service which is texting back CANCEL. Anyway, he has a prepaid phone and everytime I put money on it they take $9.99 out. I cannot locate them to get the funds put back on his phone, and there is no contact information. I am going to have to cancel his phone and get him another.
Just beware.

Your company signed us up for a game we never subscribed to. When I contacted your 800 number you offered only a three month refund and promised I would receive a call from your corporate office to discuss a full refund. No one ever called. When I contacted your company again I was told someone had tried to reach me. No one had called. I was promised a call from your corporate office. No one ever contacted me.
I have written a letter to the chairman of the board of AT&T which participated in this rip-off. I am writing a second letter, including dozens of complaints and a lawsuit, to the Texas Attorney General and to the national association of attorneys general to ask that they take action against your firm.
Your company is a complete fraud and I sincerely hope that at least a few of your executives do real jail time.

Wow, an accident . . .
Who's fault is it, Myspace or Predicto that your son had this terrible accident?
Which one filled out all the information correctly for your son?
Sorry to hear about this tragic "accident" and "mistake."
Try changing the number, not cancel this phone -- weido.
Seems like its "like father, like son" here.
