So I Went Into A Cingular Cooperate Store Today...
Because they said they had the new phones and rate plans.
They did have all the new phones (The R3 is SWEET!! I might add the people at the store won new ones in some kinda of contest) the V551 is nice also BUT the rate plans are the same.
The store people said they had received all the new company literature over the weekend and besides the new phones everything for new customers would be the same as before.
Guess my *incentives* to leaving Nextel for Cingular are not going to be there.

the new plans are already in effect, they came out last month, our older plans didn't includ nation m2m, and more anytime mins as before. For christmas i am sure we will get a bunch of promo plans.
...
What kind of new phones did they carry? What about the R3, haven't heard of that one.
...
your talking about the Motorola RAZR V3 that is a very expensive phone. like 499.99 with /2yr
...
Yes and they don't offer insurance for the phone so it breaks a month down the road you are SOOL to the tune of 500 bucks.
...
lockline has to accept insurance. they may require proof of purchase. it's not a PDA although expensive should be covered
...
why would they have to accept the ph? lockline is a private company, aren't they?
...
fact remains that lockline can refuse to cover anything it likes, its a private company.
...
And Lockline has crappy customer service. Anyone know of another one?
...
yeah lock/line customer service sucks... but oh well i don't know too many insurance companies that are sweeties to you either......
They do not offer insurance on the Razor V3 because of the lack of replacement phones possible and the cost of it. That's a reason why they don't offer insurance on Treo's or blackberry's.
the v3 to me isn't worth the money.. just an overpriced v551.... (your paying for the AL case and keypad)

tis true. lockline will not cover that under cingular offered insurance program.
...
Meant to say the RAZ V3. Got to check one out and test some of the features and functions. It is SWEET!! Reminds me of probably the greatest phone Motorola quit making. The indestructible StarTek. They start making those again for US phone carriers they will I am buying one.

how much more incentive do you need? we already have the best plans (current plans). and a MUCH larger network that Nextel. what were you hoping for?
...
From reading the post on this forum I was assuming there would be three different sets of rate plans not just the Cingular Nation Plan.
I run thru a little over a thousand mins a month.
Most of my calls are incoming and with just the basic Nextel Free Incoming 500 plan I am more than covered and I only pay after taxes with my cooperate discount 40 bucks.
That includes free long distance, nations wide direct connect(which I know cinguar does not have but plans to have next year) and unlimited nights and weekends.
And it includes unlimited text messaging and nextel phone INTERNET extras.
Some of us POOR INTERNET junkies have to stretch our dollar for more than what's it's worth.
