Technical Question

OK this question is about my account. a customer got a hold of my number some how so of course I had to change it. now on caller id it reads "out of area". i have called tech several times and they say everything is provisioned correctly. i have added WCAL and still doesn't change anything. i have blocked caller id still nothing. caller id has been reset several times and phone is provisioned correctly too.

any suggestions???

i'm tired of people not answering my calls because it reads "out of area"

ROTFLMAO!!

Maybe I'm just feeling mean-spirited today, but I just got a call that I HAVE to laugh about:

*Ring ring*
"Good afternoon, thank you for calling Cingular Wireless, this is Joey, how may I help you?"

"Umm, yes, are you open today?"

"Uhh, No....."

"Oh, OK! Well time do you close on weekdays?"


I'm sorry, and maybe I'm just feelin a bit mean but if I actually answered the phone, wouldn't that imply that we're open? I had to say "no" just to see what happened. I didn't actually expect her to believe me! 🤣

nokia mp3 ringtones quality

I'm interested in getting the Nokia 6101 if & when it comes to Cingular. Just wondering for those of you who have Nokia phones that allow for mp3 ringtones: how is the quality?

I saw on one of the forums that it's not that great. Do the rest of you agree?

I hear some peoples' phones & when it rings, the mp3 ringtone sounds kinda crappy. I have a z500 & I think the mp3 ringtones sound great (for a cell phone at least).

I am sorry...

What makes you think you can travel to an area that you have no idea if it is covered or not. Then call in to change your rate plan thinking there will be no problems? Seriously people, think before you act.

Also, if the automated system makes you upset to the point you cannot talk to a friendly rep who has done nothing wrong to you. You have issues, please deal with them before you call us.

Nokia 6620 or the Audiovox 5600??

Ok guys/gals, I'm going to be switching to cingular this september when my contract with sprint runs out. I'm debating between getting either the Nokia 6620 or the Audiovox 5600. Both are great phones and both have pros and cons as well. The only drawback on the Nokia 6620 that I have noticed is the bulky size of it. As for the Audiovox 5600, I've never heard to much info. on audiovox phones and have never owned one, but have owned a few nokias.

Which one of the 2 do you all recommend? Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Thanks-

Ok Cingular Employees...I'm really confused and need your help

🙄

I am a Verizon customer and have been for about 6 years if memory serves me right.

I live in NC and travel the whole northeast and southeast extensively for work.

Lately I have been really pissed with Verizons lack of quality, sleek phones. On top of that I have had some serious voice mail delays.

I want to start by saying I am very easy on my phones, never dropped one, and the current phone I have had for 2 years looks virtually brand new.

Here is all I require in a phone. VERY good speaker phone, VERY good ear volume, VERY good reception. I'm getting up there in age and the ears ain't what they used to be.

Does the Black Razr fit this description? please give an honest opinion.

I have read that the ear volume i...

Cancel Service

Ok I dont want to start an argument over which company is better. But Cingular does not work in my house or near my house because I am close to the border to Canada where it competes with the Canadian signal. Also my phone has the worst sound quality ever (e317). So I am switching to Verizon where my stepmom has service and loves it, especially around my house. My question is how much is my termination fee? According to Cingular email its 240.00 prorated at 20.00 per month for each month remaining on my contract. I have a 1 year contract, so if I have 6 months remaining its 120.00? Any agents can confirm? I am in the Buffalo New York calling region.

CCRs of the World, UNITE!!!!

Friends, comrades, brothers and sisters in arms, I have a revelation for you.

For too long now we have been focusing our anger, our bile, our bloodthirsty vitrol onto the only person we can. I of course, am talking about the customer. We have turned fighting with them over piddling amounts of money into the glorious sport of kings. We have become truly masterful at the art of saying no. But I must ask you, why?

Why must we lash out at the customers? Let us think about this matter and consider the recent changes in the wind. Consider, my fellow representatives, how we used to live in happier times. Ever since November 14, 2004 a dark cloud has hung over all of our heads. And we were tragically forced to learn that the grass was ...

Black RAZR question

I know many stores are starting to get the black edition of the Motorola v3 Razr (though it isn't on Cingular.com yet), and I have just one question about it.

For those of you that have seen one hands-on:

What is the casing like?
Is it black plastic?
Is it anodized aluminum (similar to the original v3)?
Is it painted or powder-coated aluminum?


Okay, that's actually more than one question. Think of it as multiple choice!

cingulars best phones?????

i have been with cingular for about a year and a half. i've seen the likes of siemens come and go, also the release of LG, which sucks. what is everyones opinion on the best quality phones??
in our market the z500 and the x427 are two of the best "performing" handsets.
I own a razr and have done three warranty exchanges on it, last one i asked the rep who they get the most claims on and she said without a doubt moto and lg.
is everyone seeing that also?
what kinds of phones do you guys own? and of the new ones coming out, which ones do you want?

Fast Fwd & Caller ID ?

I never got around to buying the Fast Fwd for my T637, and guess it's gone by now. Always wondered if it would transfer caller's iden to the home phone ... or at least transfer the calling number?

If not, I'd probably just use it as a charging stand (assuming I see one come across eBay).

TIA! 🙂
