I can tell you this from the Verizon Wireless side. VZW does NOT prorate minutes as of June 2005.
So if you sign up and have like 3 days till your billing cycle, you get the FULL 450/900/1350 whatever minutes and only get charged for those 3-4 days.
Also when we do rate plan chagnes, we no longer pro-rate the customer on minutes either. Cut down my customer call-in workload alot.
I'm sure Cingular will do the same thing eventually.
...
Cingualr already does, in the region I handle, when customers change plans (i.e. rate plan changes or new activations) the minutes are not pro-rated in the billing system, only the cost, now we just got a new build of our billing system so i'm not sure if that is still true, but up until this month it was.
...
as far as i know since we are prorating the $$$$$ on the first bill we are prorating the mins also. if they are going to change it let everyone one know not just one person in actvations 👿 👿 😈 😈 👿
...
Actually it is true.. I'm in the Credit and Activations Team.. Charges are prorated, but the minutes are NOT....
...
IT IS TRUE.. The charges are Prorated but the Minutes ARE NOT..
...
we prorate the money but not the minutes. this is how we get away with not letting the rollover take effect until the 2nd month. "you didn't have to pay for a full month but you got full minutes that's why your first bill dosen't show any r/o."
...
when did this start? i still have been seeing prorated mins on customers bills recently.
...
i've been here since january.
according to csp:
Minutes will begin to accumulate usually on the second billing period.
...
awesome is this stated somewhere though? CSP or any where else?
...
thats quoted straight from csp. hence the "per csp" line. 😕
