USPS employees (attn HondaNC)

Call 866-378-1535 to reach the USPS hotline. My wife works for USPS and it would have been a easier than getting the discounts after the fact. It's a good service because you don't get transferred around, and they treat you well.

Since she works in a rural area, VZW has been the best coverage and the America's Choice II has thus far worked out great....no roaming charges!! (hint hint Sprint 🤣 ).

My view on the NSA situation.

i always thought that this wasnt a big deal and if they wanted consumers records who cares becuase it increases the level of security on this country- we cant afford another 9/11. (it would pretty much destroy the country's finances)

i think if they also want to spy on our daily lives every second then again same premise with what i just said would be applied here.

as long as it keeps us safe then so be it.

Official Release of the Q - From VZW today !! Looks like it will suck ??

The Q will release from VZW on the 24th, 10000%...I assure you..

I am not so concerned.. My friends in the data testing group all have it and say it sucks big time..

I like it because of it's size.

I will still get it to play with..

Glad you peeps are liking the a930 but WAIT!!!

the lg 8300 with MicroSD, flash UI will be a much better phone and will do so much more.(bitpim/ video/etc) And even if you are dead set on getting a930 I still would wait for many more reveiws to come in, unless you have to money to blow.

"Reliable"...

No stray here, but What is there definition of "reliable". I do respect Verizon and there network but am confused by this term, or the statistical representation.

Just Bought the Samsung A-930 NEED HELP!!!

Hey guys, this is the first time i've been to this website and its awesome. This forum is really great and it definitely helped in my decision to buy this phone. I really like the phone so far, i've only had it for about a 1/2 day. But anyway, my question is about Bluetooth. I had the motorola razr from verizon (crap) and I was wondering if i was able to send my contacts from my razr to my new a930. I am not sure if i can even do this but when i try to connect to the razr using bluetooth i'm not able to, but it does recognize the device. If anyone has any help that would be great. Thanks

Is Verizon always this slow

OK Friday May 5th 2006 I purchased a razr phone and plan from verizon. Got the message about them doing credit check ect.. Well as of now I have gotten nothing from them. Sent 2 emails no response. So I called and the lady said well it takes two days to process, and then 2-3 to ship. OK well why does it take so long? If I had know this I would have just gone to my local Verizon and gotten my phone within minutes. There was an online deal so that is why I chose that route. Anyway I do not understand why they can not respond to emails and why they are so S.......L.......O.....W! To process orders, has any body had this problem?

tranfering numbers and ??

I have my pink razr activated but would like to tranfer my numbers from my old phone. I thought I recalled a way this can be done at local store. How much $$ is this and does it also transfer your ring tones that you have paid to download?
THANKS!!!

Why...

..do customers feel as those we (VZW) owe them something when they call cust servce? This lady calls in yesterday and says she lost her phone and because she didn't have insurance and her upgrade was not until '07, so she had to purchase a phone at full retail. I say "ok...", she replies "well, i feel as if I should be compensated for half the cost"--my answer "sorry ma'am, but that is not something that I may be able to do for you. I would strongly suggest insruance the next time you do get a new phone to prevent situtations like this"....so she says "i didn't want to get insurance because it's $4.99 a month and there's a $50 deductible"--i say "well, it would've ultimately cost you less if you had did so rather than paying $219.99 for a...

Question for VZW Indirect Agents

I need some input/ideas on how to sell more data. Could you give me some things for myself and my employees to try?

Very hard to get data sales here in wonderful Wyoming. Our customer base is an older one. They probably average 40 or so. They don't want extra frills on their phones. "just a phone, no camera, no text, hell I can just barely dial the dang thing" You all know the story.

Cellbrite machine question

We just got a couple of cellbrite UME-24 machines, I have noticed that they seem extremely glitchy and I just wanted to know if anybody else has had the same experiences.

When I am transfering numbers about 75% of the time I get error messages saying that either the source phone or the destination phone cannot be read/write, I have to unplug the cables and replug them in and power the phones off and on several times then sometimes they will work, I tried our other machine and it does the same thing, I am using the right cables and choosing the right phones.

Anybody have any pointers or similar experiences with this thing?

Thanks

For people that bought Samsung A930

I read that you guys bought it at Best buy I went to my local one in Fairfax, VA they didn't have it.

Where are you guys located?

I am just wondering if it is a regional thing or maybe the best buy here is just slow?

Thanks!

Razr refuses strong extended network signal in favor of weak VZW network signal

This is most frustrating. There are certain areas near us that have very weak VZW tower signal. So weak that I can't even complete a call with my Razr, yet it stubbornly refuses to switch towers. However, powering down the phone and restarting it, you'll get 4 bars in the Extended Network with a tower just blocks away.

We have three phones; Razr, LG5200 and Nokia 2128.

Is there a setting in the phone that can force the stronger signal used, or is this something unique to specific phones? The other day I was at a soccer game. My Razr indicated it was using a VZW tower, but it wouldn't call out because the signal was too weak. I asked another person there to see what their phone was using....Extended Network and 4 bars.

What gives?...

should i get the A930 or is there something better that will release in the next month?

I need a new phone badly. it must have bluetooth and be reliable. price is not an issue...

now, do i roll with the samsung A930? or is there something better that will release within the next month or so?

i was thinking about the motorola Q, but i heard that it does not have a touch screen nor does it have bluetooth... any further pros and cons on the Q would be greatly appreciated.

if neither phone is recommended, what would you suggest i wait for?

thanks again
