your best bet is to stick with that unlimited plan because it is no longer offered. there are disounts available for millitary service members, but her current rate plan and phone would have to be changed.

Sometimes there are military discounts avalible but like the other person said you may want to keep the plan for now. But to clarify it is not an unlimited plan it is 99.99 for 1500 minutes for the initial one or two year service agreement you had unlimited minutes. This plan was COMPLETLY for the former ATTWS network and if you use your phone off of that network even if it is a cingular tower roaming charges may occur. Most people on this plan have the unlimited minutes kept for now but cing...

This can apply to just about any change actually i seen promos drop from simple teleconversions. I be happy to see this plan to go because you get many folks call in about the roaming. The whole idea of the plan was to entice people to go to GSM when ATTWS first launched it. that stopped once they felt enough people were coming over to GSM. Thats over 2 years ago.

That's actually CORRECT! Sadly, CCNET shows a different plan since "AT&T" was scraped off the system, but that was the orriginal plan.

At the time there are ZERO customers who have the original promo. This means that every single one of the can be forced off of that plan any time Cingualr wants.

Based on what we've all seen Cingular will take away this old AT&T promo by the end of next year.

OK, so, let's say I finally get around to graduating from college, get a real job, and decide to stay with Cingular. If I was able to get a discount through my new employer, I may have to change my rate plan if it is no longer offered? Or is it different with military people, like, are there actual plans for military people to sign up for, and because of that, they would have to change their current plan?

Yes to get employer discounts or government discounts it does require an account change, there are actually no special plans for the military there are military discounts there may have been government plans for GOVERMENT accounts. There is a difference, one is the government has th...
