Cell Phones are not Landlines!! . .. . .. . .

I was a recent Verizon customer for 4 years, I have since left them for a new formed company called Cingular, even though the coveerage is not as great as Verizons analog (unsecured radio waves) I really like this company, I have heard many friends tell me how Cingular SUCKS!! but to be honest I think I should have made the switch long time ago. . Alot of people think that a cell phone is supposed to work every where they go. . .like there basement. They dont understand that cell phones are "Wireless" Just wanted to let everyone know that compared to the customer service that I received I love Cingular and I think that they will be a very successful company. I hear alot of reps bash each other on this site and i think that if all of you wo...

Best plan for LIGHT e-mail checking?

Hello All,
Just opened my Cingular account with a RAZR & Nation 450 w Rollover. Seemingly stupid question: What plan should I add If I just want to check my e-mail 1-2 times a day? I average incoming 10 emails a day. I dont need to surf the net or download ringtones, etc. Thanks in advance!

For Cingular Employees....

Does anyone know the real scope on the Motorola V635? Motorola took this phone off of their hellomoto.com USA website. Plus, I called up Motorola and they said it will not be released for the US. But, some people are saying its coming, and this is striaght from Cingular. There are rumors that Cingular REJECTED the V635, since testing didn't go to well. To, me its the same as the V600 but with a better screen, camera, an MP3 player, and expandable memory. The operating systems has the same look as all of the Motorola phones. Nothing has changed yet. Someone please give the 411 on this story.

want to upgrade my phone to a 6230 - please help

I was told this phone is not available now in MO from someone at the business center when I called in ( I am trying to get my employer discount applied to this so I have to use a different number/division than the standar retail center - or do I??? )

Any way this lady said she had no SKU for the phone and it was not avaialable for MO.

Can someone help me get this phone?
What is the SKU?
Why does everything have to be so hard?

thanks Kevin

In Response to "Wo Trains Cingular CSR's Thread" Nokia 6230

The reason that the agent argued with you is because the Nokia 6230 IS actually a phone that is capable of operation on 4 BANDs (quad) the phone specs are GSM 850/1900/1800

The phone can also access 800 MHz Cellular as well,
GSM 850 is simply GSM technology operating in the Cellular (800 MHz / 850 MHz) frequency band. Both the technology and frequency band have been around for a long time, but only in 2002 were they combined. While still being seperated in come foreign countries. Which allows the phone to operate on 850 in the US and 800 in other countries. please see www.GSMWORLD.com for more deatails. . .

ATT/Cingular Migration...A Royal Joke...and I'm not laughing!!!

I am an ATT family plan customer with over a year left on my contract. I go in the Cingular (former ATT) store on 4/23 to see about getting a replacement phone for my son's which was stolen at school. The store rep tells me that they don't have any phones that will work with my ATT plan. They said that to get a new phone for my son, I would have to migrate to Cingular, which required purchasing TWO new phones and $18 porting fee for each phone number. What?!?! and Ka-Ching too...but ok, my teenage son HAS to have a cellphone 😕

So my son picks his phone and they port his number and activate his phone then and there. He is already talking to friends on the new Cingular plan while I'm still trying to select a phone for myself. Decided...

Mystery Shops

So, its nearing the end of the month, and every other store in my district has been shopped but the one I'm currently sitting at...what are the odds they'll come today?

and does anyone else think that some of the mystery shop stuff is complete BS...i mean seriously, not every person is willing to be sold right away, and if you went through everything on that list, you'd sound like the most annoying salesperson ever..at least IMO...

If you know the answer...

Hey I really just want a straight up answer to this question...can I purchase the Samsung P207 over the phone or is online the only way to get it? I am kind of skeptical of purchasing it online because of identity theft and all of the horror stories that I have herd on here about buying from the website. Please help me out! Thanks. 🙂
