"In a sad coda to a long story of failed promise, Virgin Mobile confirmed Tuesday that they’ll finally cut off the 86,000 remaining customers of the old Helio wireless carrier. On May 25th, former Helio customers–also known as “Virgin Mobile postpaid” subscribers, different from Virgin Mobile’s thriving prepaid business–will be forced to move over to Sprint or lose their service."

so its saying service willl be no longer available to helio phones, but since virgin bought helio and i was originally helio customer, what happens to me. do i have to get another virginmobile phone, forced to switch to sprint, or change to diff provider .. i personally want verizon, but but contract with helio will not end any time soon. does this mean i can just ditch the bills right now, and switch to verizon? sorry lots of questions, need answers to wats going on with helio and what i can do about it
