Cingular Cancellation Policy within 5 months

Guys,

I currently reside in CA and was wondering what would happen if I sign on with Cingular (2 year contract) and then cancel my plan withinn 5 months??

Does that mean I incur just the $150 cancellation fee OR $150 + full retail value of the phone??

Thanks,

-K

Why Verizon Has The Power

I confess the Sprint Nextel combo deal caught me off guard. Aside from trying to convince me that the two would merge disparate network technologies, the entire deal seemed to get wrapped up too quickly and tidily to have staying power. The negotiations were one of the industry's best kept secrets in 2004. It was announced and signed off on in a matter of days once the news broke. In disbelief and denial, I assured my associates that Verizon would make a play somehow. However, the days trickled by, and Verizon remained mum.

Puzzled, I began writing my column, ...

Dumb and Dumber

Stop wasting time on useless flame wars. If some people drive you crazy with their opinions or some other idaes they may have, don't respond or give their threads any credit. Sooner or later they'll end up leaving anyway because they aren't getting the attention need or want.
It's that easy! Try it!
As for which cell carrier is the best, it doesn't reely matter. There are more important in live, get over the "cell phonescoop spam" as I like to call it.
Have a great week people!

Leave Nextel Alone!!!!! Or else!!!!

I Like Nextel! He's one of a kind! He's allowed to voice his opinion, and no one should take it to heart ( Don't be ridiculous!) This is a public forum, and people can say whatever they like. So why don't you all just lay off a little, and don't be so sensitive! Besides he has a point to most conversations, and I agree with him somewhat!

Picture messaging changes

Has Cingular really just changed their pic messaging? The bluetooth on my p.o.s. v600 stopped working, so to get my pics off the phone I've been sending them to my email address. I would put like 8 or so in one message so I wouldn't have to send multiple pic messages. Well now instead of delivering all the pics, only one is sent out and they change the original size of the picture to half of what is was. What the f**k?! Can they really do this? Is it really legal for them to alter the pictures we take and that belong to us, the customers? This is too far and action on the part of the customers should be taken if this is the case. 👿

Cingular Bashing

I've noticed many upon many people bashing Cingular. I haven't been all that interested in the wireless workd until recently so I wouldn't know.

But, did people bash Cingular like they do now before the Cingular ATT merger? Cause to me, it comes off as people simply being spiteful against them for being in the #1 spot.

Everyone points out, "Bad customer service". When?? where?? I've never gotten it. I know that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, but who are the people making these compliants? The people who can't read their bill correctly? The people who go over their minutes and somehow think they shouldnt have to pay? People who lose/break their free phone and feel they should get another one for free.

So many complai...

Questions Seeking Answers

So I just migrated from TDMA to GSM and I'm now Cingular Blue / Business Acct. I really wanted the Nokia 6230 but was told not available, so I opted for the V551.
Can I just buy another phone from wherever and plug my SIM inot it? I know it has to be an unlocked phone, but will a locked Cingular Orange phone work? How can I tell if it's an Orange or Blue phone?

call it a childish move, but it might work in this situation...

okay, so we know how much people enjoy starting flame/trolling wars on this forum...well, here's a logical solution...if you ignore the problem, it might go away...

so what if someone doesn't like cingular, or have a metric ton of "facts" to back up their position..facts (when dealing with the telecomunications market) are all relative, like it or not...just because some douchebag at consumer reports says cingular is worse that VZW doesn't make it so...it all boils down to the individual experience the customer has...

so what if CSR's and sales reps come on the forum to b1tch about customers and whatnot...such is life, and last time I checked, theres no laws prohibiting freedom of speech on the internet...

so...here's the deal...nex...

Amidst the recent merger, Cingular Wireless LLC will cut about 10 per cent of its 68,000 jobs over the next 12 to 18 months as it combines operations with AT&T Wireless, the chief executive of the nation's largest cell phone company said in an interview.

Many of the 7,000 or so job cuts will come from administrative ranks, while relatively few if any would come from customer service, CEO Stan Sigman told The Associated Press.

Some analysts have suggested that Verizon Wireless, which has 42.1 million customers, could eventually retake the No. 1 spot because it has been adding customers at a much fas...
