Cingular Service Reps...PLEASE HELP!!!!

😡 Ordered Cingular Svc. & equipment (two SE z500 a's) online in April '05. Loved phone, got great sig. strth., clear comms., no lost/dropped calls, JUST Piss-poor battery life especially compared to advertised. Got fed up with constantly having to charge phones, so, before initial 30 days expired, went to nearest Cingular Store (45 mins. away), and on advice of salesperson, went through the process (via internet & phoning customer service) of changing to Moto v551.

These phones SUCK. Sig. Strth. is still good, don't have to charge everyday, but I have lost/dropped at least 30% of all calls, even when standing still. Clarity of calls is non-existent.

So, how can I get a phone that WORKS, now? Is there any way I can get one through...

MCC/MNC for cingular in Washington state?

What's the current MCC/MNC for cingular in Washington state? I know that when cingular was just a PCS operator the MCC/MNC was 310-17(0) before AT&T Wireless was taken over. Is the MCC/MNC for cingular now 310-41(0)? I know the old AT&T Wireless MCC/MNC was 310-38(0) and don't know if that figures into it at all. Is 310-17 which was cingular's PCS network in CA/NV and WA now 310-41?

TIA

what's legal with a port?

I just had a nextel number ported to cingular about a week ago. Now i've received a call from nextel trying to save me to go back to them, i explained to them a few times that i do no want to do this and that i thought it was illegal for them to do this after my number was ported. what is the deal? is it only illegal for saves during a port or even after completion. I mean this was not a call that i started with nextel, they called me at home.

thanks

Cingular plan without Phone?

I own a Sony Ericsson T610 phone from T-Mobile which is unlocked and would like to switch to Cingular.

Is it possible to get one of their plans without signing the 1 or 2 year contract?

I would also like to transfer the old number.

any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Swaroop

MOTO ROKR

There is a problem with the first 100k units sent out. The phones ring continuously after terminating a call. Following shipments were corrected.

This will correct that problem if you or a customer has one of the affected units:

voicemail min's?

This may sound like a strange question, but...

I was wondering if we get charged min's during peak time when dialing voicemail from your mobile phone.

Will Cingular ever have free nights and weekends??

All the other carriers have it why not Cingular? i like the fact that they have the roll over minutes but they should have free night and weekends I'm afraid i might go over my 5000 min.

Better selection of higher end flips?

Does anyone have any idea of when we might be seeing some higher end flip phones coming on Cingular? It seems like all the nice flip style Samsung's and LG's are going to Verizon and Sprint.

When it comes contract renewel time, is it worth staying if there's nothing better out by mid-November?

new network already?

i don't understand cingular
they switched from tdma to gsm like what was it 2 years ago. they finally complete the gsm overlap of tdma and now they want to come out with a new network i think it will be wcdma? is it true about this whole new network thing. (i dont really know that much about cingular but i was just curious, it seems weird that they want to make a new network so soon) becuase the telemarketer that called could barely speak english so i couldnt really understand what he was saying.

ANRP plan and PTT

This has probably been covered already, but for those of use with agent plans, will they add free PPT with it?

I just got my LG F7200 today. Dying to use it.
