a dude in the cingy forum threw the "largest calling family in the country" in my face and i humbly conceded, saying that this argument should hold until the sprint-nextel merger gets finalized...

another fun week in the phonescoop forums...

ok here is the thing, in some ways F&F is better than rollover... in some ways rollover is better, but here is the thing, if all of a sudden this company got rollover, let me guess who will be defending it, thre are only "IF" when it comes to comparing. If this happens this will be better , if this happens... if this happens....

hit reality.

i'll take a shot at it.

let's just say that we have 2 customer's both with the exact same plan:minutes and price.
the plan will be 1000 minutes for 50.00.

customer 1 cingular uses 500 minutes a month for 3 months. banks 1500 minutes

customer 2 sprint also uses the same amount for 3 months. no bank. doesn't have rollover

month 4 both customers go over their plans by 1000 minutes because of a death in the family.

customer 1 cingular has 1500 banked minutes. no extra charge on bill.

customer 2 sprint has fair & flexible. has to pay extra $5.00 per 100 minutes(correct me if I'm wrong). customer 2 sprint now has to pay 50.00 more on bill.

looking at it this way which was the better deal.

please remember that these were ju...

It just depends on the customer. I for one am a Cingular user and use almost all of my minutes each month. If I were on F&F, the price each month would be either the same or $5 less because I didn't get into that next 100 minutes. Sometimes though< i go a bit over, digging into the RO minutes. If I had Sprint, I'd have to pay $5 extra/month. Now, $5 really isn't that much to pay a month and when I've figured the numbers with regards to how much a person uses when they use a stable amount each month, $5 was usually the difference in price going either way.

Now for me, since I get a 23% discount with Sprint, that's going to get me to go over once my contract's up with Cingular. Yes, I'm going to put up with the poor customer service ...
