Re: I would have....
Laughed at them and told them good luck getting decent information, let alone help. I would also inform them that they are married to walmart then because your store and the core store will make them go back to walmart for questions just to prove a point. I usually tell my customers that you pay for service at our stores (3rd party and core) there is a reason we spend days training instead of stocking shelves in electronics and ...
Re: It's not a law being passed as much as it being....
A judgement in which other lawsuits can reference. It's an unfair business practice. I hated the fact of spam getting into texts but it was inevitable. I think this lawsuit will not only confront the blocking issue, but maybe getting the free incoming texts for all carriers.
Re:but some carriers aren't
att was the only one I wasn't sure of. But I believe (and hope) that this is what is motivating this lawsuit....
No if only Alltel gets sued for their commercials....
Re:but some carriers aren't
USCC, Alltel, and I believe ATT never extended the contracts for price plan changes or esn swaps. So they wont be part of this. I think (
and really hope) this lawsuit is more twards the unfairness and rediculousness of extended contracts for dumb things...
Re: I don't see how this could work
umm majority of loans in the past 3 years had no pay off early fee. What you are thinking is when mortgage companies charged this fee. It really only applied to very low rate mortgages, specifically ARM's, and you pay it off before the intrest readjusts...
I do believe that Verizon will end up settling this or be found liable, but because they unnecessarily extended contracts everytime something changed in the account. Carriers will still be allowed to charge ...
Re: Issues with being commission only....long sorry
My compaints about it (especially for an agent)
1. You have to follow even more closely to your commission sheets and disconnects and unfortunately I have seen bad owners try to cheat employees.
2. Commission only creates bad sales people.(read first) It creates desparation in employees, which forces employees to become more agressive and also opens up for fraud (putting on features that the customer doesn't know, and other more worse things)
3. It also shows the level a company cares about ...

Re: being a caucasion bi-lingual salesperson...long
I am also the same way, but in WI we have a very growing influence of mexican culture. I get maybe 5 or 6 activations from hispanics and are actually quite apreciative if you speak in spanish with them because it can be a flawless transaction, however when you speak it poorly (or they assume you do because you're white) they would rather struggle through english for some reason.
I enjoy speaking in spanish because it definately loosens up ...

Re: can you hire 2 part timers instead???
Hire both to fill 2 needs. You get a good rep and one to work hours needed. The college girl may bug out on you when sports come around or finals. Atleast with both you really aren't paying more to split their hours...just an idea
Re:Too much work for really no payoff
and it was such a pain in the arse to hold customers accountable for the non returned loaners. Plus, it was to costly trying to replace the loaner phones we lost.
Re: isn't it....
A better model because your older and have lots of money now?
Re: Are you kidding me?
not to mention the inherent incompadibilities...
Verizon's lineup is pretty sweet, but the data is still expensive and phones usually are crippled which takes the fun out of most of them.
Re: Side note for business pricing
I didn't say what you said was false, what I am stating what you said was false was (lol i can barely follow that) that it wouldn't be charged, which isn't wholely true, but we both agree that they should be waived on businesses and personally think on all lines. (in reference to the $15 fee)
Re: Side note for business pricing
not true. if you activate a business on a consumer plan, even though it should be free activation it still charges the activation fees by default because the soc codes are inherent in the plan. Yes the OLR says it is waived, but you must contact your AE or customer service to get them waived. Had that happened on 2 of my associates accounts this week.
Re: Side note for business pricing
$15 upgrade fee would apply though because of the consumer plan, but most of us would uncheck that for you anyway
Re: more gov involvement = bad news
to create new programs, new governmental revenue is needed. The government gets most of it's revenue from taxes. I do disagree that this is a slippery slop arguement too, but to an extent he/she is right. If the government increases control costs do go up (for the government and the carrier). Remember costs to the government include both new money and moving money from other programs (so education may get less money again). So they will create a committee ...
Re: Can you please make a suggestion... Not sure what to do?
moto q is coming out and data is only $24.99/month.... THat may be a viable option with USCC, but data sppeds are....eeehhh...not blazing like ATT but you'll get reception! :D

help!
My brother has had us cell for just over a year and he is moving to Florida. It is obviously outside of their local area and the rep told him he had to cancel AND pay the ETF. Is there any way around it? And this really isn't fair at all especially cause he wants to keep the service. Is there any way to get around the ETF. (he doesn't want to do an COR or do the contract ...
Re: I wonder... rethought
I do really agree, but their network is so small for a national carrier because it's spread so thin. Sprint doesn't really add towers for coverage saturation like every other carrier does. They are smart in building up wimax quicker, but their network may be the coolest, but one of the main reasons Sprint's churn is so high is because of a weak home network. PCS is a great service (call quality) but Sprint's service saturation is terrible. Phones ...
Re: I wonder... rethought
What I really mean is that compared to other carriers they have been slacking in net adds. It also has to do with the fact sprint figured they would be pulling net add numbers like verizon and ATT with the meger and it has done nother but hurt them so far. It also has a lot to do with sprint, of national carriers (and most regional carriers) is that they aren't adding new network out. Sprint is tryin to ...
Re: I wonder...
do you think it's because they cannot really afford it? With the merger and all that debt, also with losing subscribers to other carriers it may cause them to tighten up just to keep the focus on wimax.
Re: Inventory shortages at at&t agent stores..could this be the end??
you must not be a premier agent with cross market stores...to my knowledge thats the only way they would allow it.

well you are right in most cases. but there are some company who pay min.wage or commission whichever is higher promote honesty. blockquote>
Companies can promote honesty however if a vigorous study was done I bet you would find my theory true. They can promote honesty, but in a company who pays salary and commission would not have to make it a priority because how the structure is set up it would severely reduce the chance of a sales ...

Re: depends on the dealer and also the associate...long
I did a paper in college discussing the levels of ethics and morality in sales, and my point was that there is a moral relative factor in how you are compensated that can lead to the lower level of ethics and morality. Pure commission company's (Mobile Solution, Shock City) hiring policies are much more lax and also hire more employees as a whole because they only pay when something is sold (other than minimum wage if they don't hit ...

we should go to a movie...I'll bring the popcorn :wink: :D
Re: FOREVER
I understand the frustration, but, and I know I am stating obvious, why would you leave to get poorer reception just because of the phone. It reminds me of the Verizon commercial with the guy with the coolest phone who picked up the serial killer and he couldn't hear his wife warning him about the killer.

Re: iPhone Dealbreaker answer...
Basic service is going to be just shy of $90/month. $40 voice plan. $39.99 PDA connect, $7.99 for another feature specific to the iphone. That adds to aboout $88...$98 ish after taxes.
parking in front of my store...
Please do not park in front of my store when there are plenty of spots closer to the store you are actually going to...Also, do not get pissed when I go to my door and open it for you and you get embarassed that you have to tell me that you are going to cost cutters. Seriously I applaud you for walking the extra 10 steps but dont park in front my MY F***ING STORE.../rant
Re: I hate cheap customers
They have to get media to "qualify for all discounts and rebates" it's a policy that has helped our feature attachment rate, and people understand especially if it's a requirement to receive a rebate.
