Cingular

Post by SOAPboy »

Anyone else just love cingular? Just started a new plan through them and got a new phone and im rather impressed.. WAY better than Tmobile ever was.. :)

Free in network calling Wins
[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

Nope, I switched from Cingular to Sprint. Sprint and Verizon are the two best IMO. Plus Cingular has that shitty buzzing sound if your phone is near speakers.

I've been on Cingular for 2 years and I love them. I'm in the phone business and they are the most reliable network out of all the services out there, at least for my area.

Oh yeah, is that one of their "promotional" deals? I had free outgoing txt msg's for a while and some bullshit roadside assistance that I never knew I had till 2 months after I signed up, they expired and I started getting charged for it. Without warning.

I'd go with Verizone if they didn't cripple half of their phones.

My 2 year contract with cingular is up in a couple months and I cannot wait to drop them. They fucking sucked for me. Horrible coverage, dropped calls right in the middle of the city, constantly going from 5 bars to 1 bar to no bars within a 10 foot radius, while my wife's sprint phone had no problems in teh same areas. Plus, they fucked up my billing about 5 different times, requiring me to call and bitch at customer support until they fixed it.

I hate them.

Optus Prepaid here has that, free SMS/txt and calls to anyone else on optus prepaid. because of this, i hardly ever buy credit since all my mates are on optus prepaid, so it's freeee!

I hacked mine with a data cable, phone tools and a hex editor. no more paying to get pics off the phone via their messaging. bastards.
oh, i know you can do it, but crippling such basic things like blue tooth is unforgivable.

Euro's: do cellular providers cripple phones like they do here in the states (please don't rub in about how much better your phones/choices are, i know.)

Cingular sucked when I had them.
That was before they bought out AT&T mobile or whoever that was. At three different places I lived when I had that phone, I had no coverage, whatsoever. That's three different cities. :rolleyes:

I'm happily with Verizon now though. One day I hope to be rid of cell phones, they're just annoying.
