Having to wait til 9pm to call people was a crazy time in America

[Wildhundreds]

We lived through the trenches. What a time

Made us stronger..

Wym you aint call whoever whenever?

Look at this youngster over here

go outside grown folks talking

but seriously the major cell companies had shyt like unlimited minutes after 9 and other shyt that is crazy looking back at it. I think it went away around the time the Iphone 3g drop or a little bit afterwards.

Didnt Nextel have something like unlimited minutes to other nextel users no matter the time?

[BigE214]

Yep, we had a bunch of Nextel/Sprint walkie talkie function phones for work.

LMAO it really was rough out here. I even remember hanging up mid convo and calling back at like 9:02 if for some reason I had gotten on early.

 

[Bubba T]

Can't believe they finessed us all like that and got rid of it and none of us asked questions about why it was like that for so long lol




Would eat your mins. Used to be free at 9 til like 5/6am and free on weekends

We were on to data and actually using the internet on our phones. Then later the text free apps using smartphones. Once we could do that reliably, the phone companies jumped on it and said y’all can have your SMSs and voice all you want now lol

Textfree or whatever changed the game

The struggle was unmatched during that time. Was glad when Sprint changed it to 7 and then for 10 dollars extra, to 6. That is the only good thing I can say about Sprint. Ever.

Those mall phone kiosks was EATING during that era. Phone covers, cases you name it

 

[SheWantTheD]

200 sent text a month limits (then 10 cents per additional texts). But unlimited receiving.


Id wait until they really said something important to respond.


Lol.




.

LMAO I remember that shyt.

game has changed so much since then

 

[SheWantTheD]

All that shyt is obsolete now given you can make calls and text just being on WiFi
