Seems like their phones were aimed at the under 25 crowd....what did they expect? Young people, as a general rule, don't pay their bills. Scaring them with derogatory credit ratings won't do anything either....most could care less.

Most MVNOs don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.

MVNO - Mobile Virtual Network Operator. They either buy capacity from an existing mobile carrier, or are a rebadge of an existing one to make it appeal to other markets. Boost is a rebadge of Sprint Nextel. Amp'd leases time from Verizon on their EV-DO network.

Interesting concept, but the rebadges suck. Go with the guy who owns the infrastructure, not the reseller.
