A Possibly complicated AT&T -> Cingular Question

I have 2 phones from AT&T that the 2 year contract was up in October, I added 2 more phones whos 2 years are up the beginning of March.
One phone that I want is currently unavailable, but I want to upgrade the other three.
I was wondering if it is possible to drop the original line, leaving the 3 added on lines.
Migrate those phones to a true Cingular account.
Then add a line to the new cingular account when the phone is available.

*I know under this scenario I will probably lose the current phone number (not that big of deal)
*I don't want to upgrade to a different phone and then hope that my phone is available before my trade-in period expires
*Would I be able to add a line to the new account under the same name as the dropped ph...

Last time: Nokia 6102

My contract finally expires tommorow and im getting rid of this samsung e317 piece of garbage. Now i went to verizon and their phones are bulky and ugly.

So i was looking at cingular and i noticed that they had the 6102 in stock. Has anyone experienced the volume problems with the nokia? Ive read some have, and some have not. Also the phone itself feels like cheap, any problems with it?

I also saw the z520a, but that antenna thing is ugly and ive read bad reviews on that phone with reception and quality, which is the problem with my samsung e317.

The signal fluctuates during a call and words are muffled when people talk, a common problem with the 317 based on reviews ive read.

Solution to National Retail- Every rep., agent, or worker should read!

I am just a regular agent that works in a small town. We do enough business do justify being there and our people enjoy having a locally own Cingular branded store. True, we aren't Cingular, but we still sell excellent service to all of those who want it.

Throughout the past year, suggested pricing for agent stores and mandatory pricing for core stores has gone up significantly, while national retail (Wal-Mart) has continued to go down. Cingular as a corporation has allowed national retail to undercut us so much that our sales have dropped 65% in my store. This is unbelievable!!! I know that everyone is aware of this problem. Here's what Cingular should do.

Cingular should step in and take their phones out of the Wal-Mart kiosk, then r...

Help - How Would U Rate

Recently bought the Sony Ericsson z520a from Best Buy. Had to get used to not having the normal call send/end buttons, but I liked it 🙂 . But I dropped it open face the other night & the internal screen became distorted with horizontal lines across the top half of the screen 😢 . No damage whatsoever to the external screen or casing, not even a scratch. So I sent an email to Sony Ericsson to which they replied its basically going to cost me just about as much as it did to buy the phone (not in those exact words) to have it repaired.

But checked my account and saw that I was eligible for an upgrade 😁 , and need help choosing a phone.

These are the phones I'm looking at:

1. Sony Ericsson W600i
2. Samsung SGH-D357
3. Samsung ...

Former AT&T Customer Upgrading Family Plan

I'm a former AT&T customer who came to Cingular in the merger. I still have the phone I used with AT&T and I just let my account switch over however they did that.

I'm now looking to upgrade my phone and was wondering if there was anything I need to know before I walk in to the Cingular store.

My wife and I both have the same phone and are on a shared family plan. I don't remember exactly when we signed up for AT&T service, but I believe it was winter 2003. I know by looking at dates on stuff on my phone that I at least had it in May of 2004. I don't remember if I was in a one or two year contract with AT&T.

The plan I'm on says GSM AMERICA NATIONAL FAMILY $19.99 on my account. All I know is that I pay about $70 a month for the t...

Anybody want unlimited $99 plan?

For a $50 donation to either The Alzheimer's Organization or the Brain Tumor Soc. - I'll turn over my unlimted ATT (Cingular) plan.
It has a 714 number (Orange Co., Ca.) and while the number could be changed, they will not allow a new number outside that area.
What would be involved, I believe, is a conf. call w. CS. I would need to send you the SIM.
I sure wish we still had a use for this.
PM me if you are interested.

1-year contract pricing on phones?

Is there anywhere I can find phone pricing for 1-year contracts without calling Cingular customer service? The website only lists phone pricing for 2-year commitments.

Anyone got MobiTV?

All the info I can find on the Cingular website just says that it exists, what phones it works on, and that it's $9.99/mo. I want to know what kind of content is available.

Lets Talk

Any thoughts as to why anyone would not buy from them, there prices are much better than Cingulars, on the phones thats is. I boughttwo new Nokias from them last week and they got here the next day. They had the Rokr for 39.99 not after rebate but total. and free after. They have the Nokia 6201 for Free. And no I dont work for them I am just asking.

Motorola A630

Is the Moto A630 available for Cingular? I am referring to a phone that is branded by Cingular, not a T-mobile branded version that is unlocked. If so, please give me a website where the phone can be purchased. Thanks.

Please respond if you have info regarding this. Thanks.
