UPGRADE??? !!
👿 I'ts getting to me, calling a migration an upgrade!
First let me say I feel Cingular is a better option than Verizon
and it goes without saying Sprint service in the area of costs.
How can Cingular call a change from Blue to Orange an upgrade and keep a straight face?
I went into I guess what would be called a Kiosx(sp) and they have two different types of plans, one icludes txt messages, MMS and the other a better deal on nights and weekends, plans that are not listed on the web site.
While going to an appointment yesterday I stopped by a Best Buy store to pass time and looked at the plans there,
I also checked out the phones.
The plans were the same but there was no offer on the phones, not even a rebate, the sales ...

That made absolutely not much sense at all, but you're venting....we understand.

keep dreaming...there is simply money to be made selling people phones and charging 'upgrade' fees, and no money to be made in unlocking aws phones and cingular is in business to make money not be a charity.

It is NOT an upgrade to go from Blue to Orange, no way.
I think it is deception to say it is when you compare the plans, as far as service it is a matter of opinion.
Cingular thinks of Media Net as being better or best, those
of us who use Mmode know better.

An upgrade means you are going from one model of phone to another model of phone as in nokia 6010 to 6620 or to any other phone other then what you previously had.
When you migrate from blue to orange you are migration onto a current plan- If you already had a currrent phone you would ned an uprgade as well since WE ARE A AIRTIME SERVICE PROVIDER, we also carry phones as a courtesy to a customer but does not anything off of a phone
We sat down with one of the company bean counters is cost an average of $300.00 to get a new customer signed up for service so you say "so what?" well that 300.00 is just for for advertising promotions free month promotions like 1 free month text fees, 1 free month media net, so we haven't even gotten to th...

It's not an upgrade if you have to lose your better contract to do it, upgrade means better, for most blue I dare say it would be a down grade.
At some point the customer is going to lose money on a locked phone the company won't unlock or provide service
for, they could if they wanted to by adopting the AT&T Sim
which they already own now, but they want to force customers from the better plan they are in.

Just a couple of things I would like to point out... I understand from your reasoning of things you feel that since we bought ATTWS we should adopt current ATTWS contracts, rate plans, and phones...
Now try thinking about it from our end... We are Cingular not ATTWS... as the purchaser we do not owe anything to ATTWS customers... You chose ATTWS and it just so happened that the company didn't make it... Are we at fault? No, we took an opportunity.
And you say the Cingular does not offer anything better than what you have? Well, let's compare... We'll take ATTWS pre-merger and put it up against the new Cingular post-merger... I can go into full detail for you but I doubt it takes a breakdown for even you to understand what i mean by th...

Rogers Wireless in Canada charges a 35.00 "admin" fee, seriously, find other things to dwell on. 🙄

Telus here in canada charged me nothing to upgrade my phone but they did charge me $25 to SIGN THE CONTRACT. I was like 😳 what??? Your charging me to stay with you? They didn't charge me anything to purchase the phone without a contract other than the full price of the phone but to get a contract it costs me $25... Al i have to say is. 😳
