I hate to sell anything LG because I know they will probably be back with problems.

Hit start, settings, connection tab, hit connections icon, hit proxy server settings, make sure that box labeled "this network uses a proxy server" is NOT checked, this box must be unchecked in order to connect via wi-fi.

I sure wish the HTC (Cingular) 8125 had UMTS, I love it other wise.

I love learning about and experiencing different cultures, I would say that's what I love about America but that can be found in many other countries around the world. But illegal citizens have no place in America or any other country for that matter. If you want to live here you should go through the proper procedure. I just moved into a nicer apartment but rather than crawling through the window and just staying there, I went through the ...

xIsamuTM said: something i've always wondered, who do you work for? I've never really heard of a company who's promos change by the minute/day. Is there a rotation for which promo's are going on? Niki works for T-Mo but I work for Cingular and our online deals change every single day. The funniest was when a girl came in and said she just wanted to see the phone live that she was going to get it for free online..ok, then she ...

What? All of Cingular's plans are the same as VZW except VZW has no rollover, now where is the scam?

That makes sense except that is not a problem for me, I have probably not put my phone up to my ear 10 times in the last 6 months, always bluetooth, always!

I cannot wait for the Cingular 8125!!!!! As soon as it shows up as available on the price sheet I am getting one, I have played with the sprint version and it is awesome.

I find that hard to believe since the two companies operate on a completely different network, but I suppose it is possible with a lot of work and a lot of money.

I do not know anyone who has gotten back a rebate from wirefly, which includes 3 of my friends whom thought they were going to get a free RAZR after the $200 rebate they never received! They did all get their phones though, so I guess in a way they didn't get ripped off but just keep in mind when dealing with on-line dealers that whatever you pay for the phone up front is what you will pay for ...

Usually when we run a BOGO promotion at Cingular the second one is free after rebate.

That is so messed up, I can't believe you wouldn't swap the v710 for the E815, I mean geez he's been a customer for how long now?

Motorola SLVR with iTunes

in the Shop Talk forum

I just got some POP material at my Cingular store for the Motorola SLVR with iTunes. I have Brochures, a floor display, the whole 9. But there is nothing on the CSP about the launch and I haven't heard a thing about it, I feel especially neglected by phone scoop if I hear of something first it is usualy on here.

I seem to always buy the same things when I go grocery shopping, my girlfriend has convinced me that Wal-Mart is SO much cheaper, so I had a little experiment, I went to Harris Teeter and bought my usual items, the next time I went to Wal-Mart and was sure to buy the exact same items, I purchased a total of 31 identical items and my total savings were $3.72 an average of .12 per item. Sure $3.72 can ...

I do know from previous experience that Pioneer audio has a "special" line of products that are distributed at Wal-Mart. I am assuming they are manufactured to wally world specs which means cheap parts + cheap labor= cheap product. I do wonder how many companies have sub-par manufacturing for products sold at Wal-Mart stores.

We used to have a $300 dealer cancellation fee, it has since been lowered but when people would say they were going to cancel and go with another company because they lost or damaged their phone and didn't want to pay retail price for another one I would say, now that would be kinda silly to pay over $300 in cancellation fees just to get a free phone, you could get a really nice phone for that. That is ...

I had a guy say to me tonight, you should have a cell phone class where you could teach people how to add numbers in their phone books and how to change the settings, you could charge like $10 a person. Then I said the worst thing anyone could possibly say in that situation, "sir, we offer that service for free", what was I thinkin he was there for an hour and a half! Aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

I had a similar situation, a girl came in and I ran her credit, it wouldn't update so I called it in, the analyst told me the girl still owed $300 on an old account. I informed the customer of this and she said, but I can still get the phone right? I said maybe with a substantial deposit after the old ccount is paid off. She loudly exclaimed; What! That was like 3 years ago! Freakin IDIOT!

When I worked at a car dealer if we had someone with bad credit we would get on the intercom and say I need a P-800 ( a missile) some ex army guy there started it, it was pretty funny cause everybody in the dealership would start laughing except for the customer.

in the Shop Talk forum

I have a guy who comes in at least once a week, sometimes two or three times to activate a new GoPhone. He lives in a Hispanic area so I am thinking he is just reselling them, either that or he is in a really shady "business". Anyone have any theories or similar experiences?
