I Hate My Cellphone Good Lord how I hate my cellphone! I wish I could smash it, but we are here in the Philippines, and replacing it, (it is an iPhone with a USA cell number), would be a major pain. And I need the stupid thing to get text message confirmations when I try to log into my USA bank accounts. I hate it, but I need it! If we were in the USA I probably would have smashed it today. I don't care if I have a BCH wallet on it. I don't care if all my contacts are on it. I don't care if it would cost me lots of money I don't have at the moment to replace the stupid thing. I HATE IT, AND I WANT IT TO DIE!! What did it do that was so bad? The accursed piece of excrement refused, multiple times, to recognize my finger swipe as I tried to shut it off. I was shutting it off because the demonic device had locked itself in an app, (for a wireless Bose speaker), and was not responding. Yeah, iPhones are technological marvels WHEN THEY FUCKING WORK. But rather than have all these crazy features that I'll never use in 10 million years, I'd rather just have a simple device that actually does what I want it to do EVERY SINGLE TIME I TRY TO DO IT. The only reason I even have a smart phone is because my wife wants me to have one. I'd be more than happy with a simple flip phone that can receive text messages. All my telecommunication needs would be met by such a simple device. I couldn't play Woody, or Sudoku, and might have problems uploading pics to my PC. So what? The primary purpose of my cellphone is to receive texts for Two Factor Authentication. I'm not a smart man, so why the hell do I need a smart phone? #Rants

If i may suggest, can you have a low tech phone for just call and text and just let your iphone, use it for your US transaction only
I'd like to use a low tech phone for everything, and my iPhone for science experiments. Example: I wonder what happens to this iPhone when I drop this large rock on it?
