Did parents ever give kids their permission to call?

[pasadenacatpink]

I wish that number still exists.

[susarafa1]

[rettrovision]

[BigTMan1]

This commercial can be heard in the background of my Christmas 1989 home video. I always wondered what the visual to the audio was like. Now I know.

[ieatsushieveryday]

The guy in the green at 12 seconds, his mouth is huge!!

[jknightfan]

i totally called that! whoa that is a bomb ass cell phone joe..LOL

[kev3d]

Man, Donny is SO badass by shifting his hat off center like that then skillfully putting on his glasses so he can demonstrate that not only is he tough (and sexy) but intellectual as well.

Excelsior Gentlemen, you living gods.

[LiberalFury]

LOL!!! I got in SO much trouble for calling this when I was like 9.....

[nkotblover93]

whoo that is one FANCY phone joeys got there!LOL

[blinkingblythe]

Not to mention it probably put out the full 5 WATTS of power. Todays cell phones are puny (power output wise) in comparison

[jhwink]

Imagine all the lovestruck teen girls that called this number without their parents permission and what Dad's face looked like when he saw the phone bill!

[blinkingblythe]

The old 900 "services" have now been replaced by the various pay text message "services'.

[alphamone]

@blinkingblythe

mostly cause with those, they can trick you into thinking that you will be doing a one time thing, but will realy be doing a subscription service. There is a reason a lot of those ads are heavily regulated.

[whiteipod2000]

lol i remember this interview Pink did and she said she called that line like crazy ran up the phone bill

[tasharozez]

i luv them

[CheeseCafe]

$2.00 for the first minute, 45cents for each additional - that's like $40,000 in today's money.

[reymatt76]

@CheeseCafe Yeah but unlike today people actually had jobs then, so it was actually more affordable. I met one guy with a job today, how retro is that?!

[MrE985]

WORD!

[xoBECKSTAR]

LOL at Joes phone, its the size of his head xD

[cctampa33617]

Lol it looks like a cement block it's so huge!

[retrofreak]

LORD, I remember getting into SOOO much trouble for raking up the phone bill because of this. Parents had to plead to the phone comany to take it off. LOL!!

[djpaul187]

"Welcome to Sprint Nextel. Your call can not be completed as dialed."

I can't call these teen weirdos.

[GeigerGirl214]

AHAHAH look at the phone Joey's on:]
