[BC] Cell phone activations

[Paul Smith W4KNX]

The problem is the way they are paid.  They get nothing for activating your
old phone.  They only get credit for a new service. Since you can no longer
get new analog service, they try hard to steer you to something they get
paid for.  Sometimes you have to see the manager.
