Verizon has the plan
I just did a comparison on cingular and verizon, as cingular has a decent amount of calling area, verizon has more, it is obvious when you look at the maps, it almost slaps you in the face seeing the difference, so if you travel a lot, verizon only makes sense, you might as well have a phone that you can use in more areas. Good job verizon, keep it up. Now all you have to do is give rollover minutes, be that it may be a gimmick, it works, and give us unlimited calling to the customers home phone, those features would take you over the edge. Verizon just gets better and better all the time.

rollover's a good idea. it's a gimmick, but a good one. i commend cingular for it. although i don't think any other major carrier will ever have it (ESPECIALLY verizon) because it'll be seen as copying cingular.

I think you have already met that goal in many ways except roll over.......

They already copied the "no roaming" plans
I dont think Cingular was the first in the industry with no roaming plans. It might've been Nextel. In which case, Cingular copied Nextel. Damn copycats.

Nextel has a different kind of no roaming as in nothing off the network... EVER. I don't think they copied the non-existance part 🤣

Of course, the only way you'll have rollover minutes is if you don't use all your minutes in the first place. In other words, if you don't need them 🤣
...
you know alltel has the mobile to home thing? We call it the Most often called number which in short is the MOC number. You can give them any home or wireless number even if they are not with alltel so when ever you call that number its free for you. So if you have that g/f or b/f that you call alot but he/she has nextel. Add the nextel number to your account and you now have free mobile to mobile with that person, and then have that person put on the free incoming plan so now when u call them, its free for the both of you 😁
...
that would be awesome, I would rather have that option then rollover, way to go alltel...Verizon, can you hear us now... 😁
...
I think the most called number idea would be nice for Verizon. I have never had a circumstance where rollover minutes would have ever benefited me. With Verizon's unlimited M2M I use those minutes more than "anytime" minutes.
...
ATT Wireless had this option first, it was part of their Group Calling Business plans... Now those plans were awsome! The "Group" could setup 5 seperate numbers to become part of the "group" in a sense (unlim minutes to those 5 numbers! FIVE!) Anyone remember those other than me?
...
I remember but thats going back to TDMA. Wish it could have been a consumer plan
...
Right there at the end, consumers could get the plan too. It was cool. I remember the good ole days.

Have to agree. Verizon's no roam AC map does beat Cingy's GSM map overall. Definitely a good selling point to business people, truckers, travellers, etc.

AT&T's coverage area + Cingular's coverage area = more then Verizon's area.
Nobody else will ever have rollover mins, it's exclusive to Cingular. Copyrighted, or something along those lines,,,

I have the coverage maps here at work that compare each carriers coverage,,soooory! it is larger,,but i dont' want to argue with you,,,especially over something as small as cell phone coverage, ESPECIALLY of 2 company's i cannot use anyway 😉

sorry, i'm at work and cannot view those links. if you go to cingular coverage + att coverage they are larger,,or mabie the cingular faries just made up the coverage maps we have so we can go on silly forums and argue with other reps,,,who knows?
...
Att brought less than you think to that merger.. I think we can agree to disagree on this one. maybe you don't have an updated vz map.
...
no, mabie not. To be honest i dont' really care anyway,,,i think it's funny when ppl are on here arguing over which ever company they work for,,i'm just like, heh, i don't care if as of tomorrow Cingular ceastes to exist,,,*sniff sniff* now i'm all sentimental,,,friends? lol
...
Well for me it isnt really arguing as getting the facts straight. I can plainly see the difference and would like to know if there is a map maybe I am not seeing or finding on cingulars website.
...
whoa, u r cold. Y'all need have a sence of humor! I have maps at work comparing the major companies,i'll see what i can dig up.
...
haha i do im just saying if there is another map im not finding that show different or larger coverage for cingular i would like to know. I just like to have correct info. Or if I have the right maps it would mean that you have the wrong information. It isn't about WHO is right it's about what INFO is right!

Comparing the maps, Verizon definitely has more coverage than Cingy's GSM coverage. If you're talking GSM + TDMA coverage, possibly that might be more... but its kinda irrelevant, since most ppl aren't going to carry around two different kinds of phones to take advantage of it, and because Cingy is doing everything short of death threats to get all its customers onto GSM. TDMA is going bye-bye.

Rollover's nice enough, but Cingy can keep it. An approach along the lines of...
