More debt.
I'm not a wireless company, but more debt is never a good thing. Especially when you already have plenty of it.
Eventually it catches up to you and bites you in the rear. I know from personal experience.
8107 Update?
Has anyone tried installing the 8107 Update for Windows Phone yet on their HTC Arrive? Just wondering how it went, and if it's worth it.
Too bad we have to look elsewhere since our glorious carrier would rather block the update.
Thanks.
Re: Just wondering why all the hate
I really like it. It's easy to use, and has a pretty clean user interface. Probably much easier to learn than Android, although I've never used Android. I sure as hell don't plan on using it either.
The only thing that pisses me off is the general attitude towards Windows Phone by the big carriers. Sprint/Verizon still only have one phone running Windows. Sprint doesn't seem to take it seriously, and they aren't even offering the recent updates which I ...
Re: laws
Amen to that!
Re: This phone would be perfect if...
It would also be great if they made the hardware much better too. My Pre is definitely fragile.
Re: Arghh if only!
I just wonder if the Pre 3 will be released for Sprint since this is exclusive to AT&T?
Re: yes and no
Thanks for the input. Are there any other streaming music services for Windows Phone 7 like Slacker?
I've also read somewhere that IE doesn't support Flash either. I'm sort of used to that having had a Palm Pre for a while.
Good phone for me?
I've been due for an upgrade. Using a Palm Pre now.
I've been considering an Android phone but I really am not a "power" user. 4G is nice but we still don't have it here in Indy (supposedly there are 2 towers in town experimenting with it).
I mainly do texting, email, and mobile web. A few other apps like Pandora and The WeatherChannel.
I've never been a Microsoft fan, but this OS does look interesting to me. I like the idea ...
Oil
Now people will be able to talk about all the oil they see floating on the water. :lol:
Re: hate sprint!!
Do they even have CDMA in Mexico? I thought the rest of the world only used GSM. :o
Re: Is this really that surprising?
Not Surprising. It's Microsoft. :lol:
Indianapolis?
Indianapolis isn't exactly a small city if you include the whole metropolitan area. I wonder when we're going to get 4G?
Re: Old SERO, New Phones
I was forced to give up my SERO plan when I switched to a Palm Centro.
Re: whats the deal with sero
I thought you couldn't get corporate discounts off of the Everything Plans? That is what I was told anyway. Thanks.
Re: SPRINT JUST MADE ME ONE HAPPY CUSTOMER!!!
Yeah, AT&T is known for their excellent customer service...they were rated just as bad as Sprint by J.D. Power & Associates.
I've had bad experiences with Sprint Call Centers, but I can tell that things are changing. I will give them a chance. They have managed to fix each issue I had with them.
Verizon should be good, and should have a good network. They charge you an arm and a leg for everything.
Re: NO NO NO NO.....NOOO
Yeah, you're probably right. Half the battle is trying to understand what the hell they're saying. It seems like they just repeat themselves a lot too.
Re: PLEASE DO!!!!
We'll see how much AT&T's digital television sucks when they continue to grow and grow their market share.
Uverse doesn't suck. I know some people that have it, and it sure as hell is cheaper than the cable companies around here.
I'm a mailman, and I have seen their new boxes popping up everywhere as they continue to wire more and more neighborhoods for Uverse.
It's only a matter of time.
Re: SPRINT SUCKS!!!
No....Sprint sucks. Their network is pretty damn good...that I'll give them. However, customer service lives up to the poor rating that it continues to get.
I'm not talking about Sprint Store Employees. They're pretty good. I'm talking about the call center, or centers. It seems like a crap shoot every time I have to call one of them.
This is my first contract with Sprint. Been with them since 11/07. I have had to call them more times in these 6 ...
Re: NO NO NO NO.....NOOO
I agree. I've been with Sprint for 6 months now, and the people in the Stores are very helpful. I only came across one person who may have just been very tired at the end of the day. Wasn't very talkative, or helpful.
My problems with Sprint have been with the call centers, and trying to get things straightened out. I've had to call Sprint CS more times in these 6 months, than I had to call Verizon's CS in ...
Re: PLEASE DO!!!!
AT&T is large because of their whole business operation, and not just because of their mergers with AT&T Wireless and Cingular.
AT&T can get you everything for your home, along with wireless service. They provide landlines, high speed internet, and now they're wiring all the neighborhoods for U-Verse - digital TV over the phone line.
They've been buying up all the baby bells, and now their huge again in that aspect as well. I think that AT&T will only get larger ...
Re: Please Read The Article
Doesn't matter which Verizon it is, because one owns half the other. Verizon Wireless is carrying over 31 Billion dollars in debt.
They need the money! :lol:
Re: Good
You're glad about Verizon. That's nice. I wonder if Sprint is carrying about 31.1 billion dollars in debt like Verizon is??
Re: Again T-Mobile fails to deliver
T-Mobile is too busy worrying about Engadget using its trademarked magenta color on its web site. :lol:
Re: New Sprint Customer with a question about usage
I wish I had know about SERO. I definitely would have switched over. :x
Re: Watered down corporate discounts!
If you had read further up, you would have seen that Sprint resolved this issue for me. Yes I did get my discount at the beginning. That's the whole reason I went with Sprint. They give a bigger discount than Verizon and T-Mobile.
I don't care what other companies do for their employees. I work for the Postal Service and we get a discount with all 4 major carriers.
Maybe the Post Office should stop giving Sprint its discount on postage. ...
Re: Hey DDS..
They fixed it for me yesterday. They gave me a credit, and then said it should be correct now.
Thanks again.
Where's the lead paint on this thing?
Just wondering. There have been so many recalls on Chinese Products around here lately.

Your welcome and sory everyone was giving you a hard time.
Thanks for the info, and no need to apologize. I asked for it by venting on here. I should learn to cool down before I type.
I must be one of the 11K, because they did tell me that I was moved to a new billing system. They also told me again today that the disount only applies to my plan. They blame the Post Office for "re-negotiating something".
As ...
Re: greedy
If a company gives you a ton of customers, then they deserve a discount. You stop being greedy and trying to pinch every penny out of the customer that you can get. Stop changing your policy in the middle of a contract.
Re: Watered down corporate discounts!
You must not like many customers at all since all you're good at is driving them away to other companies. The proof is in the numbers, and in your crappy J.D. Power & Associates Customer Service Ratings.
Sprint would do well to clean house and get rid of all the incompetent morons like you that are mis-representing their good network. :lol:
Re: Watered down corporate discounts!
I don't care how it sounds to the three of you in this immediate thread. It has nothing to do with intelligence and everything to do with anger.
From what I've seen in life, it's usually the mental midgets of this world that have to use foul language in reference to someone, especially when they don't know anything about them.
Don't give me the loyalty crap either. Sprint hasn't done much to earn my loyalty in these first 4 months. I've ...
Re: Watered down corporate discounts!
That's great for you then. All I know is what I see on my bill. I get the discount on my plan, and then the add-ons are added. I called them to ask them about and all they can tell me is that that's the way it is now.
Re: Watered down corporate discounts!
Wrong. Sprint was taking my discount off of everything before, except for the taxes of course. They told me so on the phone, and I saw it on my previous bills.
They warned me ahead of time a while back that I would be on a new billing system. I didn't realize that they would switch the discount to only the plan itself. I called them and they told me that the discount only comes off of the plan itself ...
Watered down corporate discounts!
I no longer care what Sprint does. I just saw my recent bill and noticed something peculiar. It was more than what I thought it should be.
After looking at it, I noticed that my %25 discount was taken off of the plan itself, and then all of my "add-ons" were added to the total. When I started this plan back in November, the discount was applied to everything first, and then the taxes/fees were added.
This may only about to ...
The "Send To - Recent" Contacts
When you send a text message, you can choose a contact from the "Send To - Recent" List that appears. Is there any way to remove contacts from this list? Thanks.
Re: Rude Unhelpful Sprint Corp store employees
It's sad that this happened to you. I had great help at the Sprint Stores which is the only reason I am keeping them. Some of the morons on the phone had lame attitudes and sounded displeased that I was just asking questions.
I was with Verizon for 5 years and they are pretty good overall, however, I think they are a little on the stingy side. My discount with Sprint is better too.
I'm still in my 30 days but ...
Re: CDMA = Verizon & Sprint
First of all, not all the cool phones are GSM. That's your opinion. I think that Sprint and Verizon both have some cool phones
Secondly, who cares if GSM is used everywhere else around the world. Most people aren't world travelers.
I myself love CDMA. I recently left Verizon because I thought they were too expensive. I have Sprint now and it works just fine where I need it too, including inside my house.
Just because your ticked off at Verizon doesn't ...
Re: Is anyone thinking about leaving sprint?
I just signed up with Sprint and am still in my 30 day trial period. I like their network. I can call anywhere in my house, at work, or on my route.
CDMA has been very good to me. I was with Verizon 5 years previously, but I got tired of their stinginess. I get a better discount with Sprint.
Yes Sprint's Customer Service is lacking somewhat, but the people at the Sprint Stores are much better. If it weren't for ...
Re: rumor....
Isn't that programming feature for updating the Roaming Access List? Is it called a PEBL update, or something like that?
I know that with Verizon you could do it on any phone by dialing *228 and selecting option "2".
I just got the Rumor myself.
Re: Why do you have T-mobile?
May I ask how you got it for only $99.99? I work for the Post Office, and I have to pay $249.99 for it even with my discount. Thanks!
