I just have to READ their bullshit on screen and it takes twice as long. Why? It's not like you're moving your lips or anything... I only read as fast as the relay operator types. Many times they have to re-dial the number and each option in the automated system that we got to, because the line disconnects while they're busy typing the goddamn message to me. It's annoying.

livendive 8 #32 May 16, 2007 Quote Quote On the plus side, the phone call cancelling everything was fun, Will everyone that has at&t, cingular, dsl, and dish networks please call and cancel services. I would if I had any of those. I've got US Cellular (cell), Qwest (land line), and Charter (cable & internet). Thankfully, these only cost me a little over $300/month, without any mobile internet service. I'm considering switching to Verizon cellular so I can get email through my phone (my laptop will still be useless except at home)...it appears that would drive it up by $50/month.

Guest #33 May 16, 2007 I worked as a sys admin for Cingular for about a year during the AT&T merger. I'd rather chew my own arm off than to have anything to do with them. Don't be impressed by their snazzy commercials. Most of their budget goes into marketing, not customer service, and their infrastructure is held together with band-aids. mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

sharimcm 0 #40 July 16, 2007 I know this is an 'older' thread, but I am about to stab Cingular with a spork for them FUCKING me over the weekend... So, there I was... No really... I was there at Skyfest having a fucking great time... I was wondering why my phone had been very docile and none of my texts were being responded to... After a few people telling me they sent me a text or two yet I never received anything , I kind of figured out that I wasn't getting any text messages AT ALL. Since I figured it out on Sunday, I called Cingular this morning and they told me text messaging had been 'accidentally deleted' off my account completely. Well, I am getting a credit on my account for the 'inconvenience' but I apologize for those of you that I bitched out this weekend for not returning the imaginary text messages I thought I was sending. May I have a spork and some wine please?

skinnyshrek 0 #45 July 17, 2007 I may well decide to go to a Cingular store 30 miles away to get exactly what I want. The online websites where I could order one just confuses me. You and the public just dont mix well billy. Stay at home and just order online. that way we dont have to repeat ourselves 25 times http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

Faxed an order sheet to me, filled it out, and the specs for the pager were exactly what I wanted, as a deaf user, and faxed it back. I agree... online ordering sucks...
