They answer "thank you for calling Cingular Wireless, but it is a blue number. You don't even hear it ring!! someone just picks up 😁

I would post this in the AWS forum, but there is none now.

Call it and give it a try 405-602-7769

Enjoy

well what do you think happens when the Head Guy for Oklahoma gives it to all the indirect dealers. I knew of many dealers giving it to customers after they activated if they needed help after their store hours.

That number has been passed around soooo many times it's redicilous. So I figureed I would share it with all my friends at phonescoop =)

An emergency number is only to be used in emergency use only, like 911.You givving out that number is gonna 2 things, piss customers off who call there since its only an emergency use for like lost opr steon phones, and then giving out the number to everyone os gonna have them change that number and no one will get it, and then everyone wil...

who ever said that was an EMERGENCY number?

It's freaking customer care.

I have called that number NUMEROUS times as a dealer to change rate plans, ask questions, etc...

So it's a full blown CS number not an "emergency number".

How can it be an emergency number when no one knows it???

The AWS guy told us to use it freely, just a perk to having a call center in your city.

The number you call routes into the after hours center past 10 pm est during the week and 5 pm est on the weekends.They are there for emergency like reporting phones lost/stolen and thanks to you bigmouth, that number will get changed to a voicemail box to leave messages with tim/date, because you ...

sO IF IT DOES WHAT YOU SAY "The number you call routes into the after hours center past 10 pm est during the week and 5 pm est on the weekends"

WHAT HAPPENES WHEN I CALL IT AT 3 PM AND I GET THE SAME CALL CENTER!!!!!!

THAT PROVES ITS A CS NUMBER NOT EMERGENCY.

AWS DOESN'T EVEN HAVE AN EMERGENCY NUMBER, THEY ARE 24/7 ON THE SAME NUMBER YOU IDIOT!

THIS WAS AN AWS NUMBER FROM THE GET GO... NOT A CINGULAR NUMBER.

Mann you are such a wanker.

AWS was not a 24/7 location, each center is open from 7 am -2 am in each time zone for blue, OKC is a divested market, and they handle divested customers during the normal hours then Emergency calls for cingular.If you were actually good enough to have a corp. store you'd know that, like real employess would, so be a wanker, and wank off!

I think you're the jerk austin. If people like me didn't have to spend 40 minutes on hold just to get a simple problem resolved in the first place then we wouldn't need indsider info. The cs machine for cingular is broken in a major way, i'll take any info on how to decrease my hold times because they are completely ridiculous.

Hey dumb@ss (austin)

You said "If you were actually good enough to have a corp."

Don't you know the difference between direct and indirect?

Here I'll help you. Direct is owned by AWS

Indirects are owned by people like me.

So there for I could of never owned a corp store as you say above.....lol

It's an emergency number, and guess what unless its an emergency they can't help, they have no systems to use, its just there in case of "emergency lost or stolen phone" so they can record it on a downtime form, but thats it, if you looking for anything more then that you are so S.O.L.!!!!!!!

another thing they can only view certain markets, and if customers are viewing this thread sure enough they will call and not be able to get help and it will use their minutes ,so i agree that you should think about shi* before you post it i know your trying to help buts it causes more problems than it solves !

that's total bullshit

I did a lot of internet sales and they helped me in changing plans (REAL TIME) from people all over.

ok. let me break it down fo you

If a customer with are code XXX from Tenessee activates service over the net with me and calls me to change their plan 2 months later, then I call the 405-602-7796 number and give them the area code XXX and number.

I CALL IN FOR THEM AND THEY WERE TAKEN CARE OF ON NUMEROUS OCCASSIONS

Got it now?

Admitting to either now or in the past an owner of a indirect dealer is not to be proud of.

You could get fired by the Company like cingular pulling your liscence to sell their service, which i know to have to certain dealers, of which i helped them lose their license die to their business prectices.

You just some wanker, who would have gotten your license pulled if you hadn't sold out, probably why did!!!

lol... sure think what you want.

Fact of the matter is that I avaraged 15K per month NET.

I sold because I was offered a solid ammount of money, and I saw that the wireless retail market was on a downhill.

I sold my stores... so go ahead take it....lol

Considering AWS doesn't even exist in my market anymore it's not like taking it would of done you any good anyway. It was set to expire on May 15th, 2005 because of the merger.

i don't see why people are so worried about pulling his store code. alright, so he posted an internal number, which he probably shouldn't have done, but it's up to you if you want to use it or not. if it doesn't work for you then fine, too bad, wait in the queue like everyone else. otherwise, use the number, get your stuff done, and move on.

didn't think it was that hard....
