General Comments
Blinko charged me $3.99 for a ringtone and $9.99 for text alerts, which caused Sprint to charge me $2.10 for text messages. None of which I use or subscribe to. There are no humans to speak to if you call, and their customer service application on the website does not work. You can cancel by calling (800) 971-2271. I called and cancelled, but who knows if it really gets cancelled.

I tried to download a ringtone from Blinko, and at some point they said my phone doesn't qualify for the ringtone. So, it was cancelled.
Of course, I was billed $9.99 through Verizon Wireless.
I have tried to get a credit, but Blinko blinked and said no. I found out where they are though.

I ran into the same situation with Blinko, and I called the 800 and spoke to someone and cancelled ... or so I thought. I just realized that 5 months later I'm still being charged for a ring tone I never was able to download, and text messages from them on my sprint phone. I'd advise you to call Sprint customer service and have them block them from additional charges, or you'll end up continuing to pay like I did.
