Why does Cingy always do updates on sundays.

Right now NO ONE for cingular can

Change a sim
rate plan
upgrade
activation
or anything else without a 20 min hold time for after hours

They need to think things through.

That's pretty lame. I had a printer paper jam and thought I was going to loose my sale, but luckily it was easy to fix.

Par for the course. This happens every time. I saw the e-mail yesterday and thought: "Great, tomorrow is going to suck."

Copied and pasted from other post:

I really am tho. I had random girls come up and tell me how pretty I am. Like...I'm a cute boy. But when i get fixed up for a show i'm a hot chick. And I dont do that scary drag business...I had (should say hate) those ones that are like 7 feet tall with hair thats 3 feet tall. I go for the real look. So i guess I'm not a drag queen...Im a female illusionist.

Well, if I had myspace or any crap like that I'll tell you to send me a picture. But I'm more interested in the cute boy part. 🤤 Being a drag queen doesn't make you gay necessarily does it?

Doesn't Cingular use anything web-based so everything doesn't have to get called in?

I lost count on how many sales I lost. I wish ATT had Customer care open like sprint and Verizon on sundays. Why does att think there so special they don't have any Customer issues on sundays. ahhhhhhhh

Oddly enough - Consumer Care isnt open on Sundays but Business Care is... Someone explain that one to me. And whats wierder is is that generally, i spend most of my Sunday talking to consumer customers. Very rarely do I get a business customer (CRU or IRU) calling on a weekend.

Apparently though, some of the systems are still down in some markets...I've had COR store and Auth Retailers calling me all day to process upgrades for customers. Unfortunately, i cant even get into my ordering system so I have NO CLUE what I'm supposed to do (in fact, i cant even access accounts in some markets). I just tell them to call back in 24 hours or call their IT dept to fix the system issue. Its been a REDICULOUS day.
