So Long . . . and Thank you.

Just wanted to say I had a good time chatting with some of you while I was waiting for word on the a630 in which I eventually gave up on. Now that I've got my Treo 650 (which I absolutely LOVE!!!!!) I'll be checking back occasionally just to see what's up. Don't let those flame wars getcha! 😉

Bluetooth Headset Catastrophe!!!! Please Help Me!!!!!

Ok, So it isn't a major catastrophe, but I am getting very frustrated. 😈 😈 😈

I originally bought the Jabra FreeSpeak 250, and I had alot of problems with static through the headset when I had it paired with my Nokia 6230 and the phone was in my pocket.

So....I exchanged that for the Plantronics M2500. While the static was reduced somewhat, it was still there and this one falls off of my ear when I am walking around or if I move my head at all. Jackie tested this one for me before I bought it and said that she had no static problems with it paired with her 6230. However, I did experience some static problems with it.

So....I have decided that I need to get a different one, I think. This gets me to my...

It finally happened!

I've been taking calls in this center for over a year and a half. I just had my first call where a woman reported her phone lost, having just flushed it down the toilet! According to her, it is now "somewhere in the pipelines under Los Angeles."

I told BusterHyman about this call, and he turned red with laughter!

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

I know that the news about consumer ratings has been released, but you need to keep one thing in mind... EVERY ARTICLE MENTIONS THE COMBINATION OF CINGY & ATTWS!!!!

Everyone knows that ATTWS was a dying company anyway & of course Cingy has to clean up the mess. It is to be expected that Cingular is at the top of the pile o crap. ATTWS is gone & things can only get better from here... hopefully.

Just let it go, or complain to the right person...

I think we can all agree that Nextel18 is here for one reason...to annoy us all to hell. This guy's done what he does best in two other websites and has received his walking papers from both of those sites (www.howardforums.com and www.ideninsider.com). It's obvious we universally despise him as he posts inaccurate and inciteful information. So you know what? Ignore him. Have you seem me responding to him directly? Hell no. Do I want a Boeing 757 to land on his bedroom? Hell yes. But I'm going to attempt to go about this in a rational manner: Don't respond to him directly. If we all stop talking to him eventually he'll go away. No one likes talking to themselves. And if you want to take it a bit further, complain to Rich Brome about him Comp...

WHO ELSE IS GETTING THE BOOT?

Just wondering if any of you COR reps have heard the vicious rumors about closing locations. I work in WA at my local Wally World 👿, and we keep gettin Wal-Mart employees comin up to us asking "What are you guys gonna do when we take over?", "When are you guys closing down?" etc. The same goes for a bunch of other Wal-Mart locations. We know we're getting shut down, and Wal-Mart is putting in their own "Connect" wireless provider, but our Management (:lol🙂 keeps blowing smoke up our ass when we confront them. As a Union member, I am entitled to at least 30 days notice, but some people are saying next week we'll all be out of jobs. ANYWAY....have any of you guys experienced any similar issues?

Have you seen my phone?

I realized halfway to work that I left my cell-phone sitting on my bed. Sure enough, I now have a great urge to text message someone, but can't! 😡

Ugh! More dropped Calls!

Ok, does Cingular power down some towers at night or something? Maybe because I mostly use my phone at night, but this is getting rediculious! I had 4 dropped calls tonight, all in a row. After 13 minutes, silence, then call ended. Is there anything I can do? I have a Motorola V400. I have changed my network settings to 850/1900 and do the powerdown and all that stuff. I think I have about 4 months left of warranty on the phone, and then another 16 months left under contract. I'd hate to change providers, since Cingular has some really good service peeps (except the last girl I called, sounded like she didn't want to be there, but, you get them every now and then). Does anyone have any remedies for me?

I Finally Migrated, Now I Have Questions

So Now I am a Cingular customer.... HOORAY!

The rep in the store did not answer a couple questions clearly...

How does rollover work? I would like a link to an official explanation if possible.

I added text messaging. She said the first month was free w/ unlimited messages. In regards to the free month-Is this only free for the prorated month? In regards to the unlimited messaging-Is this only until my bill cycle closes on the 1st?


Finally, I got 2 V220's & the phonescoop.com description says- Also includes haptics and "fun lights".

I know haptics is the bass chord for ringtones, but what are "fun lights"?

Thank You!!!!!!

WARNING!!!! BEWARE OF NEW FORUM PARTICIPANT!!!!!!!!

I would just like to take this oppurtunity to warn everyone of the new participant in the forum. His username is nextel18. His sole function is to engage people in flame wars and then report them when he is proven wrong.

HE WILL GET YOU IN TROUBLE WITH THE MODERATOR!!!!

I just wanted to warn everyone, as this has happened to me, and a couple of others on this website in other forums. This has been a very nice, calm forum lately. I don't want him to cause that to change.

I will most likely get reported for this post. But I just wanted to be pro-active and let everyone else know what he likes to do. Please don't let him disrupt our helpfulness that has been going on in this forum.

IMEI number

I just recently got a new V551 from Cingular to replace my old V400. I plan on selling my V400.

When I put my SIM card into the V551 or any phone other than my V400, it shows the "My number XXX-XXX-XXXX" on the screen when I power up the phone. But it doesn't do that at all with my SIM card in the V400 (it shows the number when I put my friend's SIM card in).

Does Cingular have my IMEI number assoicated with my wireless number?

Do I need to let Cingular know that I am selling the phone?

Thanks.

How is Cingular service in the NYC/Westchester area? I have Verizon which is good but the phones suck. Thinking of switching to Cingular but am hearing many complaints about carrier service and customer service. Any advice?
