Sprint Likely To Go It Alone (Updated)
By Eric Savitz
Rumors that Deutsche Telekom (DT) might pursue a bid for Sprint (S) continue to fade.
Earlier in the week, the Telegraph had reported that the German parent of T-Mobile had hired Deutsche Bank to consider a possible bid for Sprint. But analysts have been skeptical about the prospects for a deal, with Thomas Weisel Partners yesterday even downgrading the stock.
This morning, Bernstein Research analyst Craig Moffett added to the fading sentiment on ...
Sprint is the next AT&T Wireless Services, Inc.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again. Sprint is like the former ATTWS. In a few years, it will be bought and rebranded, and the Sprint name will die forever.
The rumor has faded. DT isn't going to buy Sprint.

youre an idiot
youre trying to say that tmobile usa is placing a bid on sprint, when thats not the case at all, DT is placing the bid, dt just happens to own tmobile usa
Don't tell him that or he'll call you retarded too. In his sick little mind, he is right, and everyone else is wrong.
Thanks for calling me retarded, cellphoneguy.
but I will just sit back and dwell upon the fact that I am right that it is DEUTSCHE TELEKOM making the bid to buy Sprint and not T-MOBILE USA and that you are wrong and have confused the whole situation because you think DT = T-Mobile when in reality T-Mobile is OWNED by DT. T-Mobile USA used to be Voicestream till DT bought them and rebranded them to T-Mobile.
My number one concern with this is
AT&T may start degrading it's towers just like it did in my city because of all the iPhone users over loading the network.
If the MicroCell takes off an is wildly popular, AT&T could simply degrades its towers and force more people to pay for MicroCell.
I wouldn't put it past them to make you pay for the service and make you pay for your own coverage too. Double dipping is not uncommon in this country.

Someone is realizing that the grass is not always greener on the other side???
Ahhh BeachSlapped...G-d bless you...
No, I never really went to the other side. I refuse to pay ETFs to AT&T on my lines. So I am riding out the contracts and then I'll shop around. I'll probably most likely go back to T-Mobile because I had them for years and never had any problems. I only left them because AT&T gave me ...
Re: I got a VZW prepaid phone as a back up "home" phone.
This phone gets a lot of static and volume fade outs. I really don't that part of it, but it's still a nice phone.
Re: ***Why You Can’t Get a Good Phone With Verizon***
VZW611LA said:
Studies show Verizon works better and runs better then any other network in the US... So yes, Verizon calls are known to go through and you can trust Verizon to keep your call and not drop it.
I actually get more static on my Verizon phone than on my AT&T phone...I am kinda disappointed, I thought Verizon would be crystal clear calling.

I once had a blackberry.
with data and it was fun, but I couldn't stand the dropped calls and the phone freezing up so I gave it up and downgraded to a dumbphone and saved 30 bucks a month in the process. I like my dumbphone, it makes calls and sends texts, and that's all I need!!! Yipee!
Re: Correction: Deutsche Telekom Eyes Sprint Merger To Battle AT&T, Verizon
DT owns T-Mobile and it is DT, not T-Mobile who is interested in purchasing Sprint.
so even though they are in the same family of companies, DT is still a separate entity from T-Mobile USA. T-Mobile is not like AT&T where all subsidiaries are under the AT&T name even though each company is still its own entity legally.
eh, it's hard to explain online, but at the end of the day, T-Mobile USA has nothing to do with the potential ...
I got a VZW prepaid phone as a back up "home" phone.
I got the basic Samsung Smooth, and surprisingly, it is a very nice phone, and it doesn't feel that basic!
I finally have reliable phone service I can fall back one without having to sprint for a landline!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
really like my iPhone, though.
:lol:
I admit, it is a cool device, but I prefer actual buttons to dial on, and I can't do a QWERTY keypad, I need to have the standard dialing keypad, you know, in case I have to dial numbers like 1-800-CALL-ATT or other numbers with letters in them.

Get a life man. You don't like the iPhone? Don't get one. You hate dealing with AT&T stores and the folks there? Do business elsewhere.
AT&T will solve their iPhone crisis. I'm not so sure about yours, though.
Some people have zero sense of humor. :roll:

Verizon will be switching to Java for our new 4G network. Also, 4G LTE will be what GSM is now. Verizon will launch there 4G network this year. Next, GSM coverage in the US is horrible.

You are better to stick with Verizon and get a ...

Deutsche Telekom, not T-Mobile. DT is interested in buying Sprint. 8)
Re: Here's an example of why I wish ATT was MORE ambitious!!!
I just care about voice. If AT&T would fill in it's coverage gaps in current markets, they would be a damn good carrier for voice.
Re: Question about sim cards and 850 3G. . .
Yes, please update your SIM card, you can get it for free at an AT&T corporate store. There, you will experience professional reps who nice, friendly, and well groomed. The only stinky people in the store are the customers because AT&T does not require them to bathe.

So now that you have a NEW sim card, is service any ?better? I'm curious! And when you respond, please share where you live, and what phone you use.
Yeah, I had a damaged SIM, I get full bars and I don't cut out.
I live in the United States of America and I use a Nokia phone. Oh and I have AT&T's cellular service.
The thing is, Corporate America can get away with it.
Because for every person they fire, they have well over 100 people who want that job and are willing to take it at it's new low wage.
In the job market, Corporate America has the upper hand, hence the reason I moved into higher education.
Re: exactly right...
chocosong87 said:
when I first started at this call center the hourly pay was $9.50. They then started firing people left and right and are now bringing in people at $8.50. It makes me sick.
I worked for a for profit online university, did the same damn thing to their sales force!!
Re: Verizon vs. AT&T
Stay with Verizon. Every single Verizon person who switched to AT&T has regretted it. Tis better to stick with the devil you know than to trade him for the devil you don't know.

wish I could help but wireless and wireline are super seperated, might as well be 2 different companies. Whats the problem though, maybe I know something useful?
They once were, that's the problem. (SBC, BellSouth, AT&T Corp., Cingular Wireless, and AT&T Wireless.)
Even though everything is under one brand, the actual operations are kept separate.
Re: Should I Be Scared....?
ecycled said:
Yes you should look for another job. Its impossible to be perfect.
Corporate America wants us to be robots. They set the bar way too high so that they can fire you and replace you with people and start them off at lower salaries than what you started at. It's all a big scam to avoid paying for people's insurance and to avoid giving raises.
I officially hate iPhone customers.
I needed a new SIM, mine crapped out. So I go into my local AT&T before class and every rep is busy with people either wanting to purchase an iPhone, or b*tching about their iPhone and service. I leave and then come back during my class break...longer lines...again, iPhone people, gah!
I come back after class, when the store is ten minutes to closing, and this time, I only had a couple of iPhone people in front me, ...
Re: Multiple phones, family plan, SIM cards
You can use your current SIM on an unlocked BB phone, and you will NOT be required to get a data plan. If you use an unlocked phone, you will only be able to talk and send SMS.
Personally I'd hate to see the Sprint brand go.
It's been around a long time, and it was one of AT&T's largest rivals in landline telephony back in the day.
Re: Tell Uncle Fritz "NEIN!"
Well, if DT decides to move T-Mobile to Sprint's CDMA network, they could sell their GSM network to Vodafone, who then would be able to launch Vodafone USA and then they could sell their stake in VZW back to Verizon so then Verizon would be 100% American.

Hey all-- I've been a lurker here for years and just now got around to registering.
Anyway, I just read about the possible bid of Deutsche Telekom to take over Sprint/Nextel. Any predictions? This, of course, would impact T-Mobile and would raise the issue of merging CDMA v. GSM.
I have been a diehard Sprint customer for about 10 years now. I really do prefer Sprint on most levels. I'm glad to see the hardware catching ...

Would the FCC even approve such a merger? I say yes.
I think the FCC would approve such a merger but with several stipulations:
1. Nextel would have to be spun off.
2. T-Mobile USA would be required to sell off those markets in which T-Mobile and Sprint would be the only two carriers. (Which means AT&T could gain markets from T-Mobile).
3. DT may also be required to spin off the companies Sprint recently acquired, such as Virgin Mobile and some Sprint affiliates.
We shall see what the future ...
Menno here is what you should have done.
