Well, due to my checking account being cleared of all funds, as I discussed in earlier posts, my phone has been turned off. No partial shut off either. 100% turned off. Because, as T-mobile explained, the computer sees that returned payment and it automatically turns the phone service off. If it had just been because of a past due amount, they would have done a partial shut off, for a time.
What is a partial shut off. It means you can't make outgoing calls, but incoming calls can still reach you. So, in my case, even though I was the victim of fraud, that is in part my fault, the computer doesn't differentiate, and automatically disconnects.
So this means that I will not have phone service, until Thursday, when I next get paid, and then only if I am lucky. I will need to come up with $100 to pay past due charges or $190 to pay all charges including T-mobile returned payment fee ($20).
This problem has certainly put my budget extremely out of whack. No one is getting paid at the moment and I just went online and seen another company, tried to charge my account for their bill. Taking my balance back to a negative $17. Come Monday Bank of America, may let it stand or send it back, who knows which at this moment, but they will certainly charge my account another $35 either way for going negative.
When will this end?
It will be Thursday, before my next paycheck or my $150, from the sell of my (auto savings) mutual fund.
The above are just past due charges not the current charges that are due on top of that. I really need to get some money made from all those ads and programs like CashCrate.
I still have some surplus of food, but I am out of milk, and it's hard to comprehend, until you are in the situation, how much you depend on having that gallon of milk in the refrigerator.
I do want to thank the friend and reader, who surprised me while I was at work yesterday. I came home from work and my yard was mowed. I could tell it wasn't done by the neighbor kid, who I usually throw $10 to do it, because his parents yard hadn't been mowed and areas of my yard that he ignores (to my dismay) had actually been mowed. Thank you guy, for getting the yard. It looks better then it has all year.
