Why switch to a higher plan, use all of your rollover minutes then switch...

i concur.

That I did not know. But I doubt it comes up much, since as you say few would increase their rate plan if they have a pile of rollover accumulated.

The 550 FT plan I'm on allows only three lines. If I could add a 4th line to that plan I would not have to switch plans (at least for a while).
So from the info received on here, I either get to keep the accumulated RO minutes or they will be reduced to 700 if i switch to the 700FT plan.

Thanks for all your input!

Wow that must be a special plan just for you b/c it's not on cingy website. But of course with the sucky phones cingy has the better start offering something 🤣 🤣

Its an older plan. Has Verizon got a walkman phone that you can add 4GB of memory to, like the w810, with a 2mp auto focus camera? Your bluetooth phones - can you bluetooth a file from your phone to your pc, or to another phone????????? NO YOU CAN'T, NOT WITH A VERIZON PHONE. Just yesterday, my friend said he liked my ringtone I made, so I sent it right over to his phone via bluetooth. That is something YOU CANT DO WITH A VERIZON PHONE. Do I need to go on and on and on, or do you finally see you are with an inferior carrier.....

The funny thing is you cingy fan boys flaunt the whole bt thing and to be honest in all my years of working for Vzw I may have had 2 or 3 customers actually know what Bt is and what it is intented for! Most people say so it will sync with my benz or beamer yep it will great that's the ph. for me! Or so I can get one of those headsets without the wires Yes sir you can! I mean honestly your ph. selection sucks and your Customer service is always ranked at the bottom! Do I need to go on or do you finally see you are with an inferior carrier?

Yes you do need to go on and on, because you have only 2 or 3 people know what BT is simply mean VZW customers are uneducated (how else would you explain them choosing VZW in the first place!!) Cingular's native phone selection may currently not be the greatest, but you can go and get a Nokia N80, N73, 6131, E61..or how bout a SE w810 or k790a and they work fantastic on our network. VZW doesn't have phones that match those.....oh and please tell me what great phone made by SE does VZW offer??

Most of our customers don't know what BT is either, but some of them use the heck out of it for everything. If they don't have it they can never learn about it though. We've got at least one phone that doesn't support OBEX, but I don't like the idea of someone taking features out of my handset. People think Americans are dumb enough as it is.

dumb people go to verizon... that is why they need to have the same menu on every phone so "they don't have a problem when switching between phones". it doesnt take any time to learn how to use a phone... just type the numbers in and press the send key. for the rest of the phone, it takes less than ten minutes to realize how to use it.

and you're saying that verizon has better phone choices? they're all the same phone on the inside, they just look different!

They're going to appeal to the older market by having a universal UI. There is value to it. Can you count how much time you spend explaining phones to your older and more inflexible customers when their old phone breaks and you have to upgrade them?

LOL excellent point on the menu's!! Its bad enough verizon shows their tiny muscles by crippling the phones, but they try to impose more of their will by making everyone use the same menus. What a joke.

I hope I didnt hurt your feelings when I mentioned all the great phones that will work on our (Cingular's) network. I didnt even mention the badazz Nokia N75 and N95 thats coming down the pipeline.

🤣

just dont listen to him, he is just tryin to piss us off, but he is just wasting his time, i laugh every time i see one of these arrogant vw comments

I know thats why i said "lol"

Actually, you are stupid b/c most often people use almost the same amount of minutes prove me wrong!

lol, they may use close to the same amount every month, but what happens in case of an emergency, or if you are moving, or have 1 to 2 months where you use substantially more minutes than you normally do. Thats when rollover saves you. We have the ability to pull up a spreadsheet of everycustomers peak minute usage and it typically fluctuates every month. Don't say roll over is a gimick, because it actually has saved some people some money.

I'm not gonna post someones minutes of use, but we have this thing called a rollover matrix. When we look at it, it shows us the amount of minutes left over from each month for the past year. The minute usage almost always fluctuates.

Why?

Many reasons. Death in the family, Holidays, vactions, visiting relatives, change of employment, moving, or just basically life. I love it when my life is stable, but it isn't and can't be that way all the time.

He obviously has never had any kind of family or friends that may have had something go wrong in their lives, maybe someone going into the hospital, where many peak calls are required to check on certain things and therefore peak usage rising well above the normal usage. Thats where rollover saves your behind. Its kinda like insurance - sure you may not have to ever use those 3000 rollover minutes you've built up, but they are there should you ever need them. The difference with the insurance analogy is, with insurance, you have to pay for it.....but rollover is included in your plan. How cool is THAT!!

Im a pu$$y fan boy...you can feed me. I won't bite...unless you like it that way 😁
