I got bitten worse.  I had MCI on my school phone, and the number was
disconnected when I left for the summer on May 18.  I made a few 10333
calls in April and early May to see if I could get them in so that the
account would be closed when the bill got to NJ Bell.
What has happened is that my account continues to bill me for the
Sprint calls.  No monthly fee, but I get "you better pay up or else"
letters because my final bill has gone on for several months.
I wouldn't suggest doing this, at least not in NJ.
