what's the name of this cell provider? I want to make sure that I never

All of them most likely. There isn't a wireless company that gives a
squat about their customers. It's all about sales and revenue.

Probably....companies spend roughly ten times as much on "selling" (getting
you as a customer) as they do on customer service (servicing the products of
services) after they got you as a customer.

Of course, the overwhelming majority of CEO's come from Sales&Marketing --
when was the last time you heard of a CEO that came from Customer Service?
