I already changed my # once, but I got a really disgusting #. Anyway to change it and avoid the $25 fee, which is insane.

When I just got my phone number, they gave me a number in a different area code, i called them up and they changed it. It turns out, I choes another number in the same area code but then it still wasn't considered a local number. I called them up and they let me change it again. See if you just get a nice CSR.

Well, my old # was 917-375-4613. People complain to me that it's hard to memorize, all radom digits. The new # they gave me is worst. You would ask why don't they just store my # on their speed dials. I guess I still have some people still on finger dialings. Beats me.

That doesn't spell anything... Definitely not disgusting (at least in the sence that I thought you meant).

ROFL I'd get my stupid lazy friends to pay the fee if they couldn't figure out how to memorize my number :)

omg... how is that hard? there's a pattern for that phone number? all numbers have a pattern somehow. it's just a matter of memorizing the pattern.

I bet you they kept dialing 357 instead of 375.

Should I bother even changing it again, and if so, how?

Or should I just tell them to stick it up theirs?
