Sprint is kind enough to offer family locator with our Phone service now and my **** husband has decided to activate it so he can track me via the phone. Now he knows my location at all times and when I arrive someplace he gets a text message and can see on his GPS where I am. I called Sprint and they told me they cannot remove it because he holds the account, any way I can disable it from my phone or how do I keep him from watching me like this???

Curious to why it's such a big deal unless you're doing something you shouldn't.

Anyhow you can try disabling the GPS if it's using pure GPS and not tower based triangulation. Menu - Options - Advanced - GPS - disable it from there.

If it's using tower triangulation you're most likely SOL unless there's an app running you can remove.

I am not trying to place blame totally on him but he started the wrongs long ago. I say just get a divorce myself but until then I would rather not be tracked down like that, I don't do that to him and never have. The people at Sprint get paid by me yet won't take it off bacause he holds the account, this world is CRAZY!!!

Well he hacked into my computer email and my facebook and he seaches my car so I am not shocked but I am rather sick of it. This was his last move on his wife before me when he wanted a divorce, why all the work?? Just get a dang divorce and spare us!! If I take the battery out will that work? Will I lose all my contacts and info?

all you have to do once again is turn OFF the GPS... no big deal and problem solved.

by the way, I'd kick him to the curb though by the sounds of this guy..

lol and this is a perfect example why I firmly believe in keeping separate bank accounts, phone accounts...

It does not matter who pays the phone bill. Anyone can pay on the bill really, but if it is under my social/my name it is my account, it affects my credit and no one else gets to make changes on my account.

But since you do have a phone on his account just disable the GPS, it is super simple to do. Good luck.

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure it's tower triangulation so you might be SOL.

But please, if someone knows for sure, correct me.

This is a form of domestic violence. He is controlling you by watching your every move. This is a huge red flag. He will get worse. The fact that he disrespects you by going through your emails, face book as well wil only get worse.
If he is denying you access to the family money, being verbally/emotionally abuse - heaven forbid physically abuse you need to get out now.

I work with woman who are victims and survivors. The first step is to get him out or leave yourself. I would do an order of protection and get him out if you have kids. He will only get worse. PM me if you want to talk.
