Day 10, Friday, January 14 - Phone Plan Shopping

 Kathy did a weeks worth of laundry this morning, at the campground laundromat. While up there I took the photos below. The campground pool looks so nice and clean. To bad it isn't heated.


I previously mentioned RV's parked at some of the houses behind that actual campground. People are living in both of the RV's in this photo. They are parked in the yard of one of the houses.

After that we headed to the Target store, a 20 minute drive, to get a Consumer Cellular (T-Mobile) number set up on the esim on my Pixel phone. The guy in the phone/electronics area was stunningly uninformed about procedures. On top of that they didn't even have a Consumer Cellular/T-Mobile in stock.

The good news was that on the way back we stopped at the Peng Garden Restaurant for lunch. Back at the camper I "chatted" with a Consumer Cellular rep, was told that I needed to be transferred to another department, minutes later was told that there were so many on hold that I would have to get back to them at a later time.

I had been to a T-Mobile store and the guy I talked to didn't know how to set up the esim on my phone, or just didn't want to be bothered. Today I "chatted" with a T-Mobile, telling them I wanted to have a prepaid account set up on my phones esim. I was told that I would have to call them. I was given a phone number and when I asked, "Will someone at that number actually be able to set up a "prepaid" number on my phone. The response was, "That is the post paid number, The following is the number to call to get a prepaid account activated." Is their anyone remotely competent in the business world today?

If we go back to full timing I am going to miss being able to bypass having to deal with uninformed, untrained store employees.

Kathy went to the clubhouse in the PM and worked on a new puzzle. I did some walking around the campground, 2.7 miles for today.

God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours.
