At&t Network

I was a Cingular customer(2001) before it merged with At&t and I didn't have any trouble with them. The service was great. After the merge I heard that a lot of people were not happy with the service...coverage and customer support. Well, I like a lot of the phones that At&t has especially the BlackJack but what is holding me back is the network issues. My friend has At&t and she said twice she needed to call 911 but call would not go thru! ๐Ÿ˜ณ That's a little scary too me! She lives in Beaumont but I live in Houston...maybe the coverage is much better here since its a much larger city...not sure. Can't you search for a network when one isn't available? I was able to do that when I had TMO.

3G network question

I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan and was wondering if anyone knew when the 3G upgrade was going to be done here? I heard August and obviously we are beyond that with no 3G. Thanks for your input all!

ooookay although I do work/live in the South...

....WHY can't people enunciate!?! WHY must you speak as though you have had fifteen marshmallows stuffed into your mouth!!!
and please stop whining when you talk. jesus, you're at least fourteen?!?

"whyyyyyyyyyy can't iiiiiiiii get teeeeeeeeeeexxt messssssaging moooooooooom eeehhhhhh"

SHUT UP, get a job. get your own phone line!!!

I started working at fourteen. I'm sick of listening to spoiled children who are never going to learn anything about life & when they get older & get a real life, they will be so far in debt that they'll have to move back home with mama & beg for texting again.

why oh why

It may be something of a teenage nightmare: limits on when a wireless phone can make and receive calls and to whom, restrictions on text messages and talk time, and set allowances for ring tones and other downloads -all at a parent's fingertips.

AT&T Inc., the nation's largest wireless carrier, will launch a service Tuesday giving parents that kind of wide-ranging control on almost all of its 63.7 million subscriber lines.

"We were certainly hearing from parents who were dismayed at overuse of text or phones," said Carlton Hill, vice president of voice products for AT&T's wireless unit and the mother of two teenagers. "We want to find a way for kids to use phones without having to take the phone away."

Many parents want their childr...

Momma At&t I've Missed You...

I've learned a valuable lesson. I hate sprint.. ๐Ÿ‘ฟ They are evil ๐Ÿ‘ฟ They were rude before I even was a customer for 30 days. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Had them for 2 weeks, and was having at&t withdrawl.. lol

Gsm works better for me in the chicago area. Some people have better luck with sprint, verizon or Us Cellular CDMA, I'm glad I went back to At&t (RIP JACK)....

I'm going back to my blackjack and never looking back.

Broken phone, what to do?

I've been stuck with my LG C1500 phone since March of last year. At first it was fine and all, even though it already seemed outdated and old.

Then it started giving me ****ty reception, dropping calls and such. One time, in the middle of writing a text message, the inside screen blacked out, and the outside screen was just blank. I could still recieve calls, and even make calls if I knew what I was doing. This lasted about 2 days, then the inside screen decided to work. Then the outside.

Just yesterday, I took my phone out of my pocket to check the time, only to find that the phone thinks it's open (upside down cingular thing on outside screen). Not that bad.. just set it to answer by button. A few minutes later, I check to see if i...

Help with Premier

Hey guys, I understand that you can upgrade your phone on At&t premier without regard to upgrade eligibility. So, I get to my premier page, and i select "shop for phones". It then asks me to input my zip code, it asks whether i want to create a new account of add/upgrade (i select add/upgrade), and it asks for my phone number, and my billing account number. When I enter in all the information and click continue, i get a error notice that says:


"Error: ZIP code is not in the same market as the phone number entered. You may try another zip code or return to Premier home to purchase a new line of service in your selected zip code."

I don't understand this, I am entering in the correct zip code, and the rest of my information is accurate...

Treated like a crook in my own company

this company has finally made me so upset i'll quit. I've had some issues with my own personal line (i'm an ssr) and downloading games, it constantly says operation failed on my sony ericsson w810 thats unlocked( some games will work and some wont, its hit and miss i know). The game never downloaded but i was charged anyways, so i call customer care to delete the $100 in charges on my account for some reason i had mobi tv on my account 3 times! I literally have to get rid of that every month. She credits the account for 2 bill cycles away and they want me to pay those charges then i'll get a credit in basically october...then she notates the account that i received the games on my phone and this was a one time credit courtesy and any future ...

funny rumor

Shouldn't we be done with iPhone rumors? Its very existence was rumored and mulled for a year on tech sites such as this, then finally released. But no, no no, the iPhone rumors just won't die.


Like we've previously mentioned, any Apple rumor will receive tons of media coverage. To that point, the iPhone Nano rumor continues to circulate, feeding the ravenous media masses.

So what's the deal with the iPhone Nano? Well Apple Insider says an "extremely reputable source" reports that the Apple roadmap for 2007 includes two separate handsets. Engadget suggests that one is the rumored iPhone Nano, a scaled-back version of the iPhone that "would focus on music and offer basic cellular features" (so it wouldn't have things like the web br...
