Cingular Completes Public Phase of AT&T Wireless Takeover
Leave Cingular Blue??
for me I see no incentive to drop my current plan that
was with AT&T.
RIght now I have 400 min and 200 bonus min for life if I don't
change my plan, thats 600 a month for 39.99.
With this comes free incoming messages, #121 service included and unlimited mobile to mobile, the Cingular "regional" plans don't offer M2M.
BTW, I have a regional plan at the moment, I never leave
Massachusetts, if I did my reletives would hide and I couldn't find them anyway.
Even though Cingular can't come close to what I have
I admit, there is a temptation to jump over, but I'd be losing too much and not gaining a thing.
I'd have to have my service cut off until my phone came in the mail, pa...

Maybe, but they don't tell you until your checking out if thats
the case.
I just went to my account, signed in and clicked on upgrade phone.
$36.00 was going to be the activation fee it was written.
Also, it did say I would have to close the account and open
another with a new account number, nowhere did it suggest I could continue using the old phone until my new one arrived, it suggested quite the opposite.

Over all I think it's best to stay clear of sales people.
I prefer getting the information I need and going around them 😛

First of all, you do not have to jump if you don't want to, but be aware that in the future when you want or need to upgrade your phone you will have no choice. A Cingular plan and Cingular phone must go together, so there will be no way to upgrade your phone and stay on the same plan. Second, you don't necessarily have to upgrade online, and even if you did, I'm not sure if your old phone would stop working as soon as your order was processed or not. Finally, the upgrade fee is only $18. The $36 is only for new activations.

Unfortunately the "New Cingular" plans require a new phone to be purchased upon activation. In fact the new Cingular devices require a 64k sim card rather than the previous 32k chips. This allows the device to work on both networks (former AT&T and Cingular) seemlessly.

Just stay were your at. I am doing that. I like the 7pm night and weekend starts. No need for rollover haven't been over my minutes in 3 yrs with att.
yup, thats why rollover is a gimmick, but a marketing gold mine. att gives me more bonus minutes at the same price point, and my nights start at 7 automatically. cingular charges you 7 bucks. however i just got the pricing updates at work, and the data prices are cheaper for the unlimited blackberry package. other than that, theres no advantage in switching to cingular yet.
im a 3rd party sales rep. i sell everyone but verizon. my question to cingular reps here is this. do the att migrations qualify for the new customer rebates on the p...
