Revised May handset pricing

Just got word today that the Motorola V3 is now down to $199 on a 2yr, with no MIR.This is based on the new 5-8 to 5-31 May pricing sheet. So that makes the V3 $299 w no commitment?!? Can any other markets confirm the price drop?

The P207 is going up to $199?!?

Will Cingular carry the black Razr V3?

This may be a dumb question, but does anyone know if Cingular plans on carrying this version. I see it online at various websites, but the people at cingular have no idea what im talking about when i call them wanting one. Does anyone know.

Poor Customer.... Throws phone @ mom!

Just got off a call with a customer.

Basicly had to explain why her bill is so high and also explained why the TV ads don't apply to her until she migrates to Cingular.
Details not important.


So customer now understands and wants to migrate. Past due balance on the account so cust wants to pay the bill first.

As I'm getting the credit card info I hear the girls mother in the background asking why the bill is so high, Cust tells her mom that she will tell her later and that she doesn't want to talk about it now.

*This point I keep quite and listen!*
Mother: I want to talk to him!

Daughter: No mom, He's already explained it to me! He doesn't want to explain it to anyone else!

Mother: Give me the phone, I want to talk...

Multimedia phones and UMTS

It seems like every carrier is upgrading to a nice selection of multimedia phones, including some at Cingular of course. With the end of 2005 coming soon enough, technology will become at the forefront, especially speaking of the new technology to be launched in at least portions in of the U.S. by the end of this year, UMTS.

Does anyone have some info as to what phone models we will see from Motorola, Nokia, and LG? Another good guestion is the cost to use the new, upcoming network? It seems like the video calling feature will be among a very popular use, especially if it's offered on the unlimited data package, w/ text msg and pic/video sharing included...all at a reasonable price.

Any news on this upcoming (great) wireless technol...

Speaker Independent Voice Dial?

Do any phones for Cingular have speaker idepedent voice dialing like on the Moto v710 for Verizon? For those that dont know what it is, its voice dialing without having to program anything. You just hit a button and say 'Rich' and itll automatically translate what you said and find 'Rich' in your phonebook and dial it without having to pre-record anything.

Phone suggestion

So I am thinking about changing my phone to a different one. I want something that takes better pics & have video capture. Currently I have a V220. I think I have narrowed my selection down to 2 phones. I will be buy them off eBay because ti is cheaper (& they have a phone that is older, but I still want it)

Would you guys recommend getting a Nokia 3600/3650 or a SE Z550a. Or should I just stick with my V220?

v400 vs z500

I currently have a v400 and I'm not really to happy with it's preformance. I was thinking about buying a z500 off of ebay until I'm elible for upgrade in november... My question is.. the color screen quality of the z500 compared to the v400. Is there a huge difference between the two, or is there just a small difference between them.
thanks..

Too much time on your hands?

my last call of the day yesterday came in 6 minutes to the end of my shift. Apparently the customer worked for 911 services in san somethingorother,CA, and because he worked for county he was entitled to a discount thru our FAN process, so far so good, except he has been on service since 2001, no FAN# was attached to the account(Ever), and he just migrated to cingular orange gsm last month so tdma account is closed. He never checked to see if discount was applied and is"miffed" that he spent "too much over past four years for wireless service"....Now FAN discounts range from 5-20 %, usually gov't is around 10%, he would have saved about 3-4$ a month.

Here's the kicker-no FAN# and cust wanted us to apply the discount for the last 4 years t...

ATTENTION Orange reps!

First of all, this is not meant to be a battle, but it needs to be said.

I have received calls from "O" (Orange) reps with Blue accts that haven't even bothered to ask the customer's name. Just a suggestion, have some common sense, ask the flippin name. Put yourself in their shoes, would you want to be asked all these questions to find out that they need to be xfered? Come to the Blue side and have to repeat everything ALL over again? I know that I wouldn't!

When you call to the Blue side, ya'll need to have some respect toward us. We are NOT the enemy ya know. We are customer care reps just like yourselves. Some of ya have no manners and demand our ID's but won't give theirs...mmmm wonder why? I know why. FEEDBACK ON YOUR ASSES!

Cingular, "Unfortunately"

After the many hours of telephone conversations I've had with cingular reps in the past 5 days, I can say that Cingular's motto should be "Unfortunately" -- because that's exactly what the cingular rep will tell you when you ask them to do or explain something that should be logical.

"unfortunately our system is not set up to [insert logical request here]"

"unfortunately the last person you spoke with gave you the wrong information"

"unfortunately there is nothing we can do at this time"


So, I have this advice:

1. do NOT migrate from AT&T to Cingular.

2. If you do choose to migrate -- do NOT do it via the web or over the telephone - -if there is any sort of glitch in the process, they will be unable to assist you until af...
