Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / ATT Wireless / May 2008Fave 5, My Circle.. or whatever?
Greetings all, T-Mobile has Fave 5, Alltel offers My Circle & Sprint has Pick 3 for calling frequently dialed numbers without counting against anytime minutes. Does AT&T have a similar offering? TIA... TL > Greetings all, > > T-Mobile has Fave 5, Alltel offers My Circle & Sprint has Pick 3 for calling > frequently dialed numbers without counting against anytime minutes.

TL With ATT you may call any of 50 million other ATT cellphone customers and not have it count against your minutes. > With ATT you may call any of 50 million other ATT cellphone customers > and not have it count against your minutes. Notice how they didn't really answer your question because it's NO.... How long do you think it would take a 15 year old girl, hormones raging, to eat up those rollover minutes talking to her horny boyfriend that's using My Circle now? In the context of these two teens, "Rollover" is hilarious....(c; ....probably measured in seconds, not minutes...(c; > > With ATT you may call any of 50 million other ATT cellphone customers > > and not have it count against your minutes.

Because it's way cheaper to get a plan with fav5, etc. ? That doesn't answer why the girl doesn't pay for her own sh.t? Mom and Dad paying for her crack habit does nothing at all for her. Or them. > That doesn't answer why the girl doesn't pay for her own sh.t? > > Mom and Dad paying for her crack habit does nothing at all for her. Or > them. I pay for my daughters line on my at&t plan, $10 bux plus $15 for unlimited data. (the whole family has $30 unlimited text) it doesn't bother me. I also do the same for my 12 year old. The security of being able to get in touch with them, or them me with a phone is well worth the money. > > That doesn't answer why the girl doesn't pay for her own sh.t? > > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > I pay for my daughters line on my at&t plan, $10 bux plus $15 for unlimited > data. And when she blows the entire month's minutes on day 2? Kids need to learn responsibility, and there's no better way than to make them buy their own cell phones and service. If you wish to make it a requirement that she have a working phone before she can go out with her friends, that's a separate subject. Huge incentive, actually. >> > That doesn't answer why the girl doesn't pay for her own sh.t? >> > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > before she can go out with her friends, that's a separate subject. > Huge incentive, actually. Boy, I'm glad I'm not your kids. What a hardass. If one of them breaks an arm, I bet they're afraid to tell you for fear of their lives! > >> I pay for my daughters line on my at&t plan, $10 bux plus $15 for > >> unlimited data. [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > What a hardass. If one of them breaks an arm, I bet they're afraid to tell > you for fear of their lives! man, you think I'm being a hardass. And we wonder why we have kids who can't do anything for themselves. "Michael N.

Those who rant otherwise have never had to search for that missing teen in a crowded concert, theatre or mall.... ....for hours. > "Michael N.

BTW, they have yet to run me over on minutes or dip into the roll over pool (and thats what its there for), what did scare me was the texting, even if they don't initiate or respound, their friends will text them. > "Michael N.

Does AT&T have a similar offering? If that is unlimited free calling to selected people, my ATT plan and most of the plans I know of, have free calling to other ATT customers. >> Greetings all, >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >If that is unlimited free calling to selected people, my ATT plan and most >of the plans I know of, have free calling to other ATT customers. Exactly. With T-Mobile they each have to buy a T-Mobile phone or calling is only 1 way. With AT&T they'd also each need a phone, but instead of 4 other people to call, they'd have 50,000,000 others. >> Greetings all, >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > If that is unlimited free calling to selected people, my ATT plan and most > of the plans I know of, have free calling to other ATT customers. As far as the Sprint plan goes, it's unlimited free calling to any of the 3 numbers you designate, any carrier or landline. TL |
