Re: works with At&t ?
Yes, I am using an unlocked one right now and it works just fine with AT&T.
Re: Unlocked Phones - Cannot access internet
This may seem like a silly question to ask, but you do have a data access feature (even if a pay per use one) on your line that is not accessing, right?
Re: Unlocked Phones
If it was unlocked, then I could see someone paying that premium for it, especially if it was unlocked and didn't come directly from AT&T, maybe if purchased from the MFG (or an employee of the MFG) and had NONE of those little quirks in it that the MFG stipulate can't be disabled. For instance, I had an unlocked Sony Ericsson W300i about 9 months before Cingular did, and I could do EVERYTHING with it, including actually using my ...
Re: I want
Friend of a friend has one already and he lives in Dubai.
Personally, I have had one here in the states for about a month now and I love it, but mine is a prototype and I will not say how I got it

Re: Reasons Why I Hope Cingular Never Gets the KRZR!!
Agreed, I had the W300i aboout 3 months before Cingular had it (about 2 weeks ago in best buy) and I now have the Z710i, I was a die-hard Nokia owner before, when I was working for Cingular.
Back then, I swore to never own a Motorola, and at my current clip, it'll be a long time before I DON'T own a Sony Ericsson.
Re: y not cingular
If Cingular is picking up the W800 and W300 as their walkman phones, then I would be willing to bet that, if anything of this model, they'd be getting the Z710i.
I've been using it about a week and a half now, it does NOT have the pedometer like the others, but it does have a (non "walkman") MP3 player and all those other bells and whistles that people sell phones based upon. Still has the 2.0MP camera and all ...
Re: can u use ur mp3s as ringtones on this phone
Yes, MP3s can be used as ringtones

Re: Comming to Cingular in September
I got this phone for me and the W600 for my brother at the same time, got them both for less than the LEAST Cingular will charge you for just the W600 about 3 months ago. This will SURELY not replace the W600, which has a better camera onboard and better sounding speaker and sound through the headphones. The user interfaces are identical and the benefit of expandable memory (google a 1GB memory stick for the W300, they exist), ...
Re: Hey is it true that airtime starts being charged before you pick up the phone?
It would terribly suck if Verizon DID charge for that, I know that Cingular readily sets peoples expectations that they would be charged "send to end" on calls, which means that the person DIALING the call can be charged, even if the other person never answers.
Don't get started in the techincal mumbo jumbo that would come if the person receiving the call was off-network and the call goes to VM, THEN they may see that call on their statement.
Re: Things That We Are Thankful for About Cingular
M2M - Most people I know have Cingular
Rollover - I was in training for the job I took when I left Cingular as an employee for 6 weeks, so I have PLENTY of them, so I can easily afford to be on a 39.99 plan without blowing the cap.
... that will be about all
Re: How would YOU improve Cingular?
Problems can probably be solved internally, and by INTERNALLY, I mean in the call centers, then let that branch out from there.
Does anyone know how hard it is to go in to a job that you have an increasingly intense contempt for from day to day? Imagine you work for a company that sometimes went out of their way to keep their emplyees happy, who in turn would keep the customers happy as a result. Now, have that company ...
Re: w300 already available??
I kinda like how I have been using this phone for like a month now, do not work for Sony Ericsson and cannot discuss the details of how I acquired it, and acquisition does not involve ebay.com
Re: Thank You Cingular!!!
Not as much as Cingular hates it's employees.

Re: Cingular
NC, I was in the former blue Business Care center
Re: Who will be offering this phone?
I thought I saw on a site a while back that T-Mobile would be carrying this phone, and that they were supposed to have had it a couple months ago, but it still ain't out.
I worked this loophole I happen to have and I have been using it for about a week now, and I have my service through Cingular. Didn't get it FROM them though.
Re: Cingular
I saw that writing on the wall summer 2005, ESPECIALLY when it relates to former blue employees.
Being damned good and among tops in a particular center in performance and all seemed not to matter one little bit either. It seemed like they would turn up the BS level to make the tenured reps want to leave. There were people leaving my center 3-5, one time SEVEN at a time and all bumping into one another at interview dates for ...
Re: Owning up to really bad decisions
Answering the question about equipment upgrades was always easy:
"phones are less online because Cingular is not paying a representative to babysit you through your purchase"
"your buddy got his phone for half what you did with only a one year contract because he is employed by a company who has committed to spend millions of dollars per year with Cingular in exchange for deeper discounts, while you call in every month to complain of your bill going up $2.37 when ...
Re: REFUND
The thing, before I decided that my sanity was more important than working for Cingular 3 months ago, was that the turnaround time to expect a refund to be rendered to an account is 1-2 billing cycles. That is 30-60(ish) days.
This time, as I understand it, is for the phone to come into the distribution center, wait to be checked in with thousands of other phones (did you think they were joking about the "51 million," thing? you aren't ...
Re: How do you rack up a bill that big?
I believe I talked to the "Lord of the Rings" customer when I was working there too, either that one or another one who was equally stupid.
I couldn't do much more than laugh with these people in this position.
Re: ARPU
If they click the button and the system says you can, yes.
... otherwise, you wait.
Re: can someone help me?
Think about what you're saying here.
We understand that you're frustrated about locing your phone, but you also agreed that, should you need to file for insurance replacement, that you would pay a $50.00 deductible.
I agreed, when I added insurance to my car, that if I needed to file a claim that there would be a $250.00 deductible. It would be just plain assinine and immature to decide after the car was stolen or wrecked that it is "unfair" that ...
Re: News flash!!
You mean if my neighbor's crack-smoking, heroin addicted, meth manufacturing sone steals my car, the manufacturer's warranty won't cover it?
Re: nue blue
Business customers? FAN acounts who are able to migrate blue to blue GSM with a useable phoen short of going orange?
Re: Blue reps? (not you blueguy)
nope
Re: Free phone guarenteed...
the beauty of the verbiage of the customers first promise was that it was "'A' free phone every year, and if you are not happy with the free phone being offered then other phones are available at 'currently available discount pricing'," meaning that there was never any statement that any customer got ABSOLUTELY what they wanted or even that EVERY phone would be free...

Re: Retail employees
I report EVERY retail rep who adds the features on, causing me to have to credit an account for a customer that didn't request or use the stuff, out of pure loathsome spite

What I read at work yesterday say "projected" for May, and right now, these people stay with the AWS stuff they have until Suncom says otherwise

That is sad, I started at 10.89 over 4 years ago and I took home over 30k last year after bonus, overtime and taxes
Re: ANY SUGGESTION FROM FELLOW REPS?
The customer will generally thank me, then commence to beating the hell outta the kids, while I overhear the exchange anbd cheer them.
Re: ANY SUGGESTION FROM FELLOW REPS?
I humor them, I answer the questions they ask, all while I use the phone number from my display to find the account, I wait for them to hang up and then I call the home number listed on the account and ask to speak to the account holder, and ask them if they are aware of the whereabouts of their phone, as I was making a courtesy call to them to make them aware that someone, quite possibly ...
Re: sending picture messages
MMS renders itself (if only partially) through the GPRS portion of the phone, be sure that your phone is properly set up for this, lest your MMS/Data portions of the phone may not work right. Keep in mind that WHEN they DO work, you MIGHT be charged per-usage for this, ask what they might be before you fire off 5 million pictures of your package to some girl yo met on the internet
Re: any recommendations on some up comming video phones for cingular?
1. Buy a camcorder
2. add all you can to your computer
3. use your cell phone for booty calls, and at that only when en route

Re: Customer numbers---get your facts straight!
The entire organization known as T-Mobile has as many customers as about what is contained in the left hemisphere of my sac... Vodaphone may have more, but I know the english language and nothing about the UA/North American Carrier we call T-Mobile outsizes Cingular/ATTWS
Re: Insurance Claim
What you fail to make notice of is that phones don't last forever and that you are not special to the phone's manufacturer... In no way was is promised that you would receive an identical brand new replacement for the phone that you had... "Closest like replacement" was the verbiage used with insurance and the statement read to you may vary as according to what can be sent to you, again, VARYING according to what is available... Does this ...
Re: 2+2 = jello? wtf...have customers been drinking from the fountin of stoopid or something?
Customer's INVENTED the fountain of stupid:
"I have been a customer for 9 months, and I chose the local plan, thinking that I would be within the home calling areal nbut my sister's boyfriend's cousin's sane sex domestic partner's dog died and we had to drive from california to Mississppi for the creekside service, I was not aware that roaming was 0.69/minute, plus klong distance, can you credit me that? No? WELL GIVE ME A SUPERVISOR!!!
Re: Need help unlocking. Please.
That is funny, hold your breath, and if you manage to stay alive, check Ebay and pay for someone to give you what you seek... Have a nice life
Re: Renew Promos a Misteak!
A complaint I never hear as a business end user care rep, they still bitch about forfeiting 700 minutes for the simple benefit of rollover, but I have the advantage of being able to offer BLUE GSM to a business customer, compared to the consumer sucktomers (misspelling on purpose) who aren't left with a choice
