New question - Cell One to AT&T

If I move over to AT&T, can my partner line go under its own contract, or do I have to have a family plan like I have with Cell One???

Thanks in advance for you assistance.

Final Cell One Payments

I work for an authorized dealer. We used to be Cell One, but we are now AT&T as of December 9th. I have been made aware of a horrible flaw in the migration. Cell One stores are not able to access closed accounts. Period. End of story. There is no magic override. If the account is closed, we cannot view anything or take payments. When a Cell One customer migrates to AT&T, their Cell One account closes and a new AT&T account is opened. When they get their final Cell One bill and come in to pay it, they can't. We cannot access closed accounts. The customer must do the payment over the phone with customer care or go old school and send it through the mail. I have had numerous customers get PO'd when I tell them this. It got to the point that the...

I wish AT&T offered a smaller plan than 450 Nation

Because I don't use NEAR that much and I am accruing a large amount of Rollover minutes. I called in this week and they told me they do not offer any smaller plans than the 39.99. Sigh. I'll just have to finish out the contract and go back to prepaid. 😢

Curve Firmware Upgrades?

Is the Curve firmware upgradable? Is it forever stuck with EDGE or could a future firmware upgrade allow it to use 3G? I was in a retail store(Middletown, NY) yesterday and surfed with a Blackjack (3G) and a Curve 8310(EDGE)and didn't really notice much of a difference (possible that this geo area can't get 3G and reverted to EDGE?) Does anyone know the scoop about 3G in the Orange County area of New York?

Refurb Curve

Hi All,
Just placed my new service order with a refurb Curve. Has anyone had experience with an AT&T refurbed Curve? If not, how about with any AT&T refurbed phone? Do they look beat up? Performance okay? Thanks.

Best Nokia Phone???

I was wondering what the pros and cons are for the following Nokia Phones: N75, 6126, 6555...

A friend of mine has the N75 and seems to like it. I have heard good things about the 6126 and mix reviews about the battery life of the 6555. Looking to start with at&t with a GoPhone then getting post paid service with some type of BB (not sure what type yet). Thanks

Holiday Gift Suggestion

Hey guys. I'm just hoping someone can help me out. My wife has been using a regular RAZR for about two years now. She's reached her upgrade period and I'm struggling to come up with a good replacement for her phone. I am kinda over thinking it. What I want in a phone and what she wants in a phone are two different things.

I would ask her, but she's not into phones and I kinda want this to be a surprise. So I'm hoping you guys can help me come up with a good option or two.

The things she likes/needs are:
Flip/Clamshell form factor
Speaker Phone
Easy/Intuitive UI
Obviously call quality

Data access is really not a concern for her and she minimally texts. Any quality handsets you guys could recommend would be appreciated.

Why do people freak out when we tell them we cant access other peoples accounts?

I really don't understand the mindset of people. If I went into a bank and asked to look into someone else's account other than mine, they would have security escort me out of the place! I don''t think I will ever understand the retardation of our society.... thank god I'm done working in this industry in 2 more days.

Early Nights & Weekend

Is there any back door for getting the EN&W less than $8.99 per line? I can tell you that this is a feature that our family would use and would keep on our lines forever.

Anybody out there got an inside track or better way to get this added to my family plan?

Thanks!

Using Wi-Fi on an unlocked phone

Whats going on, recently purchased the new nokia n81 unlocked phoned. I don't have any ATT internet data plan, but the phone does have wifi on it. A few weeks ago ATT told me that if I use the wi-fi on any of their phones without a data plan, I would get charged per KB downloaded.

Is this true? I don't see how they could charge me for using my own internet source, but maybe I'm wrong.

So basically, If i use my wifi without a data plan, are they going to charge me?
