stop whining about everyone else. stop firing off letters to DOJ, FCC, Etc. Just compete! build out a network capable of more than 1meg downlink, build a network that can deliver a text message.

There will be a prepaid only dealer agreement available in the near future. Local markets have a couple ways to go about it. They can enlist existing dealers to 'sub' out prepaid with an addendum to their existing agreement or go after entirely new distribution on their own. stand by, Most markets are occupied with C&C right now but I would contact your local market in the coming months.

True - distribution would have been effected but only actual door count. Depending on what store was kept, (based on lease roll and other expenditures) the staff would have moved to the other location. You are increasing your customer base substantially and the bodies to assist those customers. very minimum headcount would have been lost in the indirect channel.

somewhat flawed logic. while the actual door will be closed, the people will still be needed. Current staffing in COR and agent is designed to handle the current customer base. It would not be possible to take on an additional 40 million or so customers and keep staffing the same.

Actually, it was Southwestern Bell. One of the 7 RBOCS created from Divestiture. Southern Bell was one of the 22 Bell companies under the Bell Telephone umbrella prior to Divestiture.

No- He is an agent. go figure. worse yet, he is getting paid 2.2 or 3.2 times. Don't know if you are doing it for the comp or to hit a VAB, or what. I would recommend not doing it for the sake of the 90 day no cause clause in your agreement.

So true! The CDMA fan boys that say its not important is because they don't know any different. Not to mention data speeds that are considerably slower.

A dealer agreement (AT&T retail store) prohibits you from selling on the internet. You can have a website for information purposes only and cannot engage in ecommerce. National Retailers are covered under a different agreement and each one is negotiated individually. Same for etailers. Employees are not banned from blogs or social media on their own time. They are supposed to reveal that they are an employee and their comments do not represent the company.

It doesn't go to market for a minimum of 3 months. It is a teaser. This Holiday season will see cheap netbooks and notebooks (again, :() with the tablet taking off next year. You are supposed to think twice about jumping in to something now, and wait till later

VZW data speeds are capped out. They must switch to LTE. AT&T's current network is already capable of supporting 7.2. Sprints own website says their 4g is currently 3-6 megs. It's not about the name (LTE, 4G, etc) It's about the experience and the speed. AT&T currently has the fastest data network and will continue to have the fastest data network even after other carrier 'upgrades'.

You're drinking the Kool-Aid. and they don't come close to other retailers. They are just below Radio Shack and slightly above Wally World. They around out the bottom 3 retailers. Put on your purple jump suite and white tennis shoes.

Sams Club Kiosk I get it. That is what I meant. I tend to lump all the crap together in one pile. They might be 'profitable' and think that their sales are good but ask the carrier partners what they think of them. They are the butt of jokes and some of the worst performing locations for the carriers. Not to mention one of the highest costs of customers acquisition.

more underperforming locations to waste good support at. The Shack needs to fix their own stores and SCK in Wal-mart before they move on to tarnish Tarjia's reputation.

Don't worry. VZW was only 4 points below average. Stay focused and true. Keep your on the prize. Maybe next time you can move to..................average.

Typical Verizon employee slappy. You are referring to volume 1. the latest study is volume 2 and was released one day ago. it is true AT&T has moved above VZW is customer satisfaction. Specifically the retail store experience.

Sprints website says 4g is 3 - 6 megs. at&t 3g is 3.6 and 7.2 by EOY. Verizon is currently in the 3 megs range with 3g Heck, even T-mo is faster.. what gives?
