CS...
Because of my new need for international accessibility and data requirements (I'm coming out of retirement... I can only play so much golf...) has Cingular fixed their Customer Service issues?
I live in Scottsdale, AZ but will be traveling back and forth to Philly and London probably 2-3 times a month to manage some properties I own.
Honestly, are they fixing their CS issues or is it still a crap shoot?
thanks
Also, any good smartphone/pda's out for Cingular that have Outlook synch, BT and a good camera?

yet that independant company made them to be having the best network, lowest drop call, in the country. 🤣

screw it... when i get over there i'm just gonna pick up a 3Pay for a couple quid and be done with it.
btw it was so refreshing to cingular employees and supporters come rushing out of the woodwork to support and promote their company...

Honestly, we're sick of defending the network. It is what it is. Yes it's improving but that depends on where you are. Perhaps noone here lives where you live so maybe that's why you're not getting any responses.
...
yea but the point is, the independant research company, who has ties to bell south, said that cingular has the lowest drop call rate, however, with the complaint list and jd powers and associates they dont agree. also, the metrics arent there to support the claim either.
i hope that $7-8B this year helps that network.

You have to keep in mind though that Cingular's former AT&T Wireless Customers are spoiled and are conditioned to complain since they are used to getting things for their complaints. When their expectations aren't met, they get mad.
Verizon Wireless on the other hand doesn't take crap from anyone and never has. 🤣

Excuse me The NY times, LA times, USA today and the Wall Street Journal all carried that story, you think they never fact checked it before they all ran it?
Think before you speak.Please and Thank You!

I really don't care what they say in New York, Los Angeles, or Washington DC.
Cingular is absolutely atrocious where I live which is in Scottsdale, AZ.
Ya sorta think it wouldn't considering that Phoenix and the surrounding towns make it the 4th largest metro in the US. And considering that the majority demographic is what all companies look for... AFFLUENT

Using your own words PUH LEASE
What they want are young hip youth and middle aged people who can use the technology and understand it.
Phoenix and AZ in general is made up of a lot of retirement comunities and villages.People who are affluent there tend not to spend dollars in the wireless industry and tend to be "frugal" in ...

...
Don't comment about a city if you don't know anything about that city. Because the 25-44 age bracket makes up the majority and Phoenicians are anything but frugal. That in tune Phoenix is in the top ten for household income makes Phoenix a spend happy city.
I won't disagree there are a good number of snowbirds that make Scottsdale among other communities their home in the winter months. But to say that AZ is a bunch of old people... pi$$ off ya wanker.
Oh yeah, I really like when you said this:

You smokin the good stuff or what???? 🙄
The fact is that wireless technology is a fast paced business that changes on almost a daily basis.AZ is not all old people but there are a lot of them.Thats why AZ is not too much of a corncern, now Nevada, major business there,Colarado and For sure California.
As for you saying wanker and mate, not only are you old but Euro as well, well "mate" pop over to the chemist and have some of your meds.
And its afact that the wireless is not dsigned are targeted for older people, justy looks at the ads in ever concept with all companies for wireless they target the young to middle age.
I think you need to go back and hit the back nine today and leave this to the younger folks.

Care to tell me how you prove its fraud, all that has to be done is properly notate the account.Anything can be justified if you notate it right! 😈 😈 :twisted
...
What are you... 17? If you were to do that you would open up Cingular or whoever you work for to both criminal and civil suits.
Any sensible person that manages their money would quickly see the unauthorized transaction and would report it first to the company that charged the account. If a resolution wasn't reached there, that person would then call Visa or Mastercard to report the fraudlent transaction and then from contact the State Police and the District Attorney.
I went through something similiar when I lived in Philly with Peco. While it was a headache, I ended up recieving almost 8,000 dollars in restitution, they were forced to pay my legal fees which were around 12,000 dollars and the CSR that tried to rip off my account w...

Bottom line, Cingular does not want or need your business, if this how you act towards providers, please Go To Verizon, go now, "run forrest run" 😲 😈 😈 😈

You are not Cingular and that is something you need to understand.
I came on here to see if Cingular has solved their customer service issues and based upon your posts I come to 2 conclusions:
1. You are a CSR... Sux to be you.
2. If you are a CSR for Cingular, well I guess they haven't fixed their CS issues.
As for Verizon, I'm already a VZW customer, have been for almost 5 years now and I have no plans whatsoever of terminating my service with them. I was only interested in Cingular from an international roaming and unlimited Media Net perspective...
Then you had to open your pie-hole.

"Again just to recap here, "stay away we don't need a customer like you at cingular,you seem like more trouble then you are worth so stay where you are don't need your business"."
i hope he doesnt say this statement to other people especially existing cingular customers becuase they will switch very quickly. also, that statement shouldnt be tolerated.

I never knew I was causing trouble... I just wanted to know if Cingular was fixing their CS problems.
He got a hair up his butt when I posted that I would not port my VZW over to Cingular because Cingular's call quality (not coverage) is very poor.
He's just a stupid kid, what can we expect?

well this is a very important issue to discuss becuase it has seemed that they didnt really fix their CS problems as well as other problems such as as you mentioned call quality and network..
i wouldnt be doing name calling but that is up to you..
people get very defensive if you talk about their carrier; it is the nature of the human personality.

Anything but. I just chalk it up to your intelligence and competency levels.

those sources used that independant research company for their stories no?
that contradicts itself anyway becuase shouldnt the JDpowers and Associates hint the same thing that the independant research comapny said? in fact, cingular was horrible when JDS reported its findings.
anything to say to that?

JD POWER and associates i worked for, they get hired by a client to run a survey, and they write their survey questions in a way that searches for a specific reaction, they did it for att a few years ago, I know i was working for JD at the time.The point is that the aricles are say that cingulr has the bext network with the fewest dropped calls, unlike JD power the newspapers and magazines have nothing to gain by writing a good article on Cingular's network
...
nextel18 said:
right but the point is... why do the 2 differ?
Because JD power will sell their claims to whoever pays their bills, whereas newspapers don't, so the correct info comes from newspapers.
JD Powers is full of beans, they pander to whoever can afford them, just that simple.
...
well, the newspapers were from Telephia's reports, and there are already conflicts of interest with Telephia and with bellsouth who owns cingular.
...
Listen,JD POWER is full of it, always and always will, i will say that now, and would even say it if cingular was called # 1 by them, they are just a pimped out survey company.nothing more.
As for reports from Telephia. before all those newspaperd people backcheck story and see whether its true or not, they just don't blindly take it at face value. JUst end this thread now, let it die!

If I use 60-70 dollars a month in data charges, another 15 dollars in texting charges and 100-300 dollars a month in international charges Cingular will kiss my a$$.

lol 1:34am.. lol enough said to that..
anyway, no.. i just find it interesting that 1. says it has the lowest drop call great network, but 2. the jd report said the contrary..
in addition, their metrics dont seem to be saying that they are the best.. (look at 2005's full year report, that i put on the forums.. verizon was first sprint was 2nd and cingular was third.. )

JD POWER is simply a company for hire, they do surveys for companies, they simply write their questions to gain a certain result, they just a couple of years ago, ranked ATT#1 and those same people were complaining about the ATT network at the time, thats makes about as much sense, except this time ATT was not paying fo...

nextel18 said:
that isnt a good enough reason..
Well sorry, could make up a good story but its the truth, they do however do business with T-Mobile and Verizon, which is known in the Industry.Thats why JD POWER rankings don't hold much water or weight in the Industry.
...
the point is; telephia has ties with bell south which owns cingular; that is a red flag in my book.. JD powers and the FCC's own readings/numbers, say other things.
...
Yes! it's improving! I notice it everyday when I transfer MY customers with issues to CS. I remain on the line for a bit (silently) to make sure they are taken care of, and lately I've been noticing that if that CS rep can't help MY customer right away for A or B, they set a commitment (for follow up). What a commitment is -for those who don't know- is time off the phone for calling back the customer and following up with the issue.
This is one of the ways I've noticed an improvement.
(BTW I'm not a CS rep. Im in sales.)

As a indirect agent for Cingular, I can easily say that their customer service has improved substantially since the beginning of the year, in every way shape and form. Any time I call in for anything, I more than likely get it resolved.
They're a lot more flexible.

Get a unlocked quadband phone or when you buy the smartphone of choice from Cingular, see if you can get the unlocked code right away.
That way you can use a SIM card from a pay-per-use company when you go overseas...
As far as good smartphones: the 8125 and 2125 are pretty good, along with the Blackberry 8700c. Treo's are a crapshoot.
Your data charges will depend upon your plan...if you have a blackberry, then expect data to be in the neighborhood of $40 to $50, but that is due to blackberry server charge, not a Cingular thing.
If you have the 8125 or 2125 and you already have unlimited medianet, then you are ok at $20/month...

If he is an existing customer and is buying a phone, then Cingular will provide the unlock code.
If he is going overseas, then they can't deny him the right to use his phone, especially if it is in a market where they have zero coverage.

I think you might want to re-read his original post, he never stated that he wasn't.
Not everyone has the same user experience, so unless you are speaking for every single Cingular customer, you can't invalidate what I have gone thru as a customer.
I do travel and they will provide an unlock if you are traveling out of the country. I went thru the store salesrep, who was able to get the unlock for me for 3 different phones in less than 24 hrs.
You experience might be different than mine, which does not make it a invalid point.

I am telling you as a cingular rep who follows the company's polices on unlocking, and if the rep who did it violated the policy, i hope they got fired for it.

Best part is that next year, you will fall back under ATT policies on unlocking devices, which is we never did.The whole new ball game stats as of feb,2007
...
And that is part of the reason why ATT was losing money...
Why keep the device locked to your tower when you may or may not have coverage in an area, say Europe, South America, Asia, etc...
Charged triple the rate for a 15 minute call, if that is the case, everyone might as well be on verizon 👿 or sprint 😈
Glad that you are a cingular rep, that and 4 dollars will get you a happy meal at mcdonalds...

Adilus,
If you live in AZ than you have Alltel available to you. There is not a better carrier out there for reception. It is a CDMA carrier and therefore not going to work in London, but you would be much better off getting yourself a PP phone based out of London. That would be much cheaper and probably get better coverage. The service with the best reception in the US is Alltel. How do I know? I am a dealer with 10 stores that offers Verizon, Alltel, T-Mobile, Sprint and Cingular. I personally carry an Alltel phone. I travel all over the US and I very rarely have any reception issues. That is how I know Alltel is the best.

I thought about Alltel actually. Its not that I'm not happy with VZW... its that I liked the unlimited Media Net packages and the international roaming of Cingular...
I'm gonna keep my VZW phone and pick up something at Heathrow.

that's a nice phone... and you can go to wirelessadvisor.com and check what frequency your local area is and if it's 1900 you could also use that here... if they unlock it for you.
