Thank you, AT&T!

On Friday, Brady's school presented him with a new 4G iPad so on Saturday, we went to get a case and some service for it.  While we don't plan to pay for service while he's overseas, he can use it until he ships out in August.  The man who helped us gave us $60 in free accessories.  Just because.  Just to do something nice for my husband who will be serving our country yet again overseas.  Brady only wanted some headphones and then insisted I get yet another case for my iPhone.  Naturally I obliged and got this adorable giraff print case.

AT&T has once again given me reason to stay their customer.  When Brady was deployed last time, I sent him a cell phone.  It didn't work, so he broke it and tossed it, without removing the SIM card (we had just switched from Sprint and he didn't know about SIM cards).  He didn't tell me because he knew I would be mad and figured he could deal with it later.  Well...  Someone stole and used the SIM card, racking up $2500 in international calling charges.  When I got the bill, I immediately thought, "OMG!  Brady is having an affair!!!!"  NOPE!  Brady thought a broken phone meant no one could use it, which he was correct--though the SIM card still functioned.  Unfortunately, other soldiers took advantage (yes, you read that correctly--they couldn't prove who, but I called the only US number on the bill and the guy said his cousin used someone's phone to call him).  AT&T was WONDERFUL.  Technically, we did not report the SIM card stolen in a timely manner but in the end, we only had to pay $63.  I am forever a fan of AT&T because of that.

XOXO,
