Nope... take charge will make Pre Paid much easier... Trust me... it's worked VERY well for AWS and T- Mobile... they get 400 min / unlim n&w for 49.99...

Why? Pre-Paid is strictly profit... We don't lose money with pre-paid customer's as we do with post-paid customers.

True but surprisingly pre-paid cust's tend to be more loyal than post paid and are a higher risk to leave... in almost every company... Not to mention it's great that they'll have a shot at really enjoying a cell phone even if their credit is bad.

just a note to say thanx to all of you for the info and humor the past few weeks. I've been following the forum to keep up with coming changes at Cingular. Been w/ Bell South/cingular for 8 yrs. in central Florida. Looking forward to the Z500 or the S710.

you will see it will get better... less hassle than having 2 million people calling every night to add a 10.00 card...

I'm very glad we have take charge. There are a lot of people who don't pass our credit and this gives them a chance to still have Cingular service. It would be better if people with Take Charge accounts could have it affect their credit status with us and let them get onto our postpaid accounts after a year or two.

I'm not sure if corporate stores are paid differently on Take Charge or not, but I know agent stores are given a $60 comission, but there's also a six month vesting period.
