a month ago i went to starbucks and used their T-MOBILE HOTSPOT internet service. posted this hereText.

i get my credit card statement and find out i have been charged $15 by them. talked to them today and found out that...
thier 2.95 plan for 15 minutes works like this......you log in once - there goes 15 min, no matter if you only log in for 1 min. that sucks.

being the cheap arse that i am, i loggen in 5 times that day...so 5*3=15.

THIS SUCKS BIG. their marketing dept says no contract, use any location nationwide, but they fail to tell you that there is a 15 min minimum.

DO NOT USE THEM.

starbucks is officially back on the blacklist

Those types of things always find little ways to rip you off like that.

Weak! I'll just use my friggin' laptop from home!

Is there going to be any place with truly free Wi-Fi? I hope so....

if you want free wi-fi, give me your MAC address and you can stand in front of my apartment.
