Re: Shop Talk Announcement
are the states contiguous?
I DROVE ALL THIS WAY!!!
I had a custy call my kiosk, and ask when i closed.
"at 9 o'clock with the mall ma'am"
"okay, thanks!" (immediate click)
she hurried down here, and drove from a nearby city, took her 30 minutes to get here.
she walked up hurriedly and started complaining. I'm not going to bother typing out what, ecause it was all rudimentary BS.
moving on... she gave me her phone number so rapid fire i almost missed it (which is the best way to ...
Re: things that annoy me
I'm almost out of here now... :?
Re: Customers in northern Arizona are absolutely retarded
nah, my employee J did. I've already been.
I used my Treo to "race" the 7130 at loading cingular.com, and i whipped him, haha.
Re: Customers in northern Arizona are absolutely retarded
Airview!
Metro over here, this is justin
who is this is?
Re: things that annoy me
it is in arizona too... unless they're taking away comission. they don't even have to pay you that if they don't want to.
Re: oh, motorola
well put.
and i agree with the corvette analogy only in part.
corvette is not an entire brand, it is a model.
I could understand if there was 30 different versions of the RAZR released, but these are all supposedly different models.
and i think the design has gotten stale. it was cool to have a clamshell where one half fit in another for a while, but now it's old hat, and most developers have proven that they can follow the same ...
Re: How to make video calls using LG CU500 ?
not possible yet.
wait until the hsUpa revision is released, and then it will be possible.
oh, motorola
you bore me.
Every phone you have released lately has that wonderful RAZR (shoon to bwe shortened to RR, when they release the KRZYRAZR V3XivM^3) look and feel to it.
This, I am not a fan of.
what if every car produced by Chevy looked entirely the same... not very fun is it?
in a business where people shoot for looks, it's either innovate or die.
Re: Bob gets abducted by aliens
I think of all the hacked up vbersions of bob stories i have read, yours had the best story telling, and had a pretty funny ending :)
you can't touch the original, but i deffinitely give you an A minus.
Re: Unlimited MInutes!!!!!!!!!
This post made no sense, and actually hurt my brain.
good java based browser
I'vw got a Treo, and am using IBM's java app (of course)
i'm using operas mini browser on it for my internet, but the prog. keeps crashing. some say this is IBM's app fault. others say it is mini itself.
regardless, i need a new browser for the treo, Blazer just does NOT cut it.
freeware is a blessing, but i'm willing to shell some coin if it will work.
Re: hellooooooo verizon
i.... know?
GIVE ME A SIMS CARD
this bugs me. it's usually some idiot who thinks you can just get a sim, put prepaid airtime on it, and have a phone number and everything. the conversation usually goes...
C: I need a sims card.
Me: is there something wrong with the sim you have now?
C: NO, i just need a sims card! and i'm in a hurry, so just give it to me!
Me: do you have service with us?
C: no, that's why i need the sims!
me: well, ...
Re: Cingular Scammed Customers?
and plooky, if you hadn't been such an ignorant bastard, you would know TDMA is being shut down BY THE FCC, so the spectrum can be redistributed for HSDPA and other forms of 3G
Re: Cingular Scammed Customers?
oh, and you kinow this because you were part of the elite recon teams that were sent out to physically shut the facilities down right?
and if you go back and re-read his post, he says in no unsure terms that HIS SERVICE WAS FINE.
stop being a troll just to be a troll plooky. If cingular bothers you that much, just STFU and ignore them all together.
when something bothers me that i have no control over, i shut my ass ...
hellooooooo verizon
how are things on the verizon side?
I'm an indirect cingy dealer looking to switch ships to one that is much more sea-worthy.
you guys seem like you float.
now... onto business.
my room mate works at circuit city, where a COR/COU kiosk is located. the manager has spoken with me a few times, and she is thrilled with me, and wants me hired badly. (i'm the number 3 producer for my agent)
well, is working inside of a circuit city a good ...
Re: Wow... you know you're tired when...
i was tired enough to try and knock a fly off of the top of my monitor using the mouse. :oops:
he wasn't even on the screen... he was on the casing
Re: Dealing With The Wireless Industry. Pt. II: The Sequel
i think the problem is the customers.
not during the actual CS work, but after the fact.
if you are helped quickly and promptly, with nary an issue, you're satisfied and go about your day.
if it's a train wreck, you tell all of your friends, and post on the interweb about it, and go wee wee wee all the way home.
Re: Will the RAZR V3 ever go EOL???
wow, you don't like the V3, yet you're excited for the i Version?
what has the world come to?
I was wrong...
It was an S56. which has an E-OTD locator built into it :lol:
Re: are you smoking a bowl now?
gunny said:
I never said I thought those two things didn't hurt people also. The thread was about marijuania not about cigs and booze. The majority of dope smokers are losers. Bottom line. They have nothing in their lives and go no-where. They are at home with their bong, smoking chit, eating cookies, and watching tv. very few have any ambition for anything else man. There not out climbling mountains and being a postive influence in anyones life. Smoking dope ...

Re: Which are the best PC sync phones from Cingular Network?
if you sync with outlook, look into the 8125, 2125, Blackberry, and almost any smart phone except nokia.
Re: Lets share crazy customer stories
I had a lady once ask me if i knew how to remove "bugs"
i explained that there are exterminators...
she asked me what "bugs" look like...
i said they're small, and sometimes have wings /;|
she finally understood that in was entirely lost.
she told me her mechanic had alerted her to a "bug" placed between the bumper and the firewall of her car, that was tracking her movements, listening to her conversations and relaying all of this to some "secret ...
Re: Is EDGE enough?
alot of people are hooking sling box's up to treo's, so i think you might be all right here
Re: Opera Mini is a life saver
is yours crashing and giving you "unable to throw" errors though? mine has been, and supposedly it's because IBM's Java App doesn't have all of it's bugs fixed.
does anyone know of a different treo browser? or a better Java App?
Re: Iron Fist
you know that's illegal in most states, right?
Re: Cingular mystery shops
we were getting shopped every day for a whole 60-90 days.
gotta LOVE how much stress cingy puts on indirects.
good news is, i just scored a perfect 100 percent on my last actual cingy mystery shop (not the 3rd party company doing the daily shops)
so i get 25 bucks on a gift card, and a comission increase to like 13 percent from 10.
Re: NO!
try secret shopping thoase guys sometime... they REALLY are thaqt stupid.
so is Radio shack, and a few of those "joe-bob's wireless house-o-rama" places.
NO!
i come in today, and my first customer was a customer wanting to upgrade... awesome, i start on my spiel...
she stops me and tells me the phone was dropped in a pool yesterday, and they had removed insurance 3 months ago, and were not elligible to upgrade... wow. this customer seems smart.
well, she explains that the phone USED TO drop calls, has for a WHOLE YEAR OF SERVICE, and she has only done 1 XBM. after i explain ...
Re: Stereo headset on the Treo 650.

Re: favorite customer quote
you're kidding...
i like "I'm in a cingular STORE, and i'm not even showing good signal." :paranoid:
Re: What Are Your Thoughts on the Mystery Shop Program?
Airview Wireless in AZ was getting shopped EVERY DAY AT EVERY LOCATION for one month.
we all had scripts with the checklist, but nobody was using them.
we're down to about 3 a week now.
Re: Stupid Comments from stupid people
Liquid damage...
I had a customer buying a retial priced phone because his somehow got soaked in motor oil.
he had no insurance, was willing to pay for a new phone, and the phone was dripping oil all over my counter.
"how did it happen?"
"i don't even know, that phone's never been near oil"
it's not like he was trying to fraud me, he could have told me.
my all time personal favorite though is the "bundle pack" listed on our 2x7's.
"so this phone ...
Re: Music ID
Music ID is a computer controlled "name that tune"
it takes a sample of music from your phone (at a party/bar/Heroin addicts annonymous, whatever) and sends it to some computer, and it analyzes the song, and tells you the artist, track title, and if any ring tones are available for your phone by that artist.
Re: favorite customer quote
My phone isn't recieving any calls?
you need to turn your phone on.
ohhhh, you mean it won't work when it's shut off?
"THIS PHONE IS BROKEN AND WILL NOT TURN ON!!"
*presses power button*
(sweet old decrepit lady) "i can't hear the dial tone on this phone, could you fix it?"
LEAST DROPPED CALLS MY ASS! :roll: this one kills me. i almost wish we had never done that stupid commercial because customers think they're so clever using that little joke when ...
Re: Live TV on your phone!
it uses data, with cingular that is.
I pray that woman has unlimited PDA connect
Re: Live TV on your phone!
it's been around since about november. it is basically a DVR that can broadcast over the internet to a mobile device (laptop usually)
it's Tivo with Video messaging more or less.
