A hundred calls a month? I think there's another side to this story that
would make more sense,

According to the press, Sprint had been looking at and working these
account for six months to a year before sending them the letter. A
customer on the network for only a month at the time of the letters would
not haver been on the radar.

How many people do you know that call a company and say, "I think you
didn't charge me enough this month"?

A pretty bold and inaccurate statement. In fact, a statement that has no
facts to support it.

I'll spell this out again- you are wrong in portraying the call volume as
the sole reason tha these customers were let go. What is so hard to
comprehend in that statement?
