Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Cingular / August 2004Cingular doesn't want your money
I went by the local office to pay my bill. They would not accept payment for my bill unless I paid a $2 fee. This was Cingular not Joe's Cellphone. Marion, Huuu, what was the fee for???? 1) take cash. it has that phrase, good for all debts public and private. 2)Be sure you video tape it. 3)If they refuse to take cash, you do NOT have to pay the bill. 4)I have never seen a Cingular store charge a fee.

Cingular is now charging $2 to pay a live person in the store. If you use the automated paystation in the store it's free.

In our area the only place to make a payment in person is a gas station, and yes they charge you to. I take it back, you can also pay at Western Union for a fee.

I have had this phone number for three years, and I have paid by mail for the first year, and online ever since I figured out that you could.

Welcome to the new millenium, ya luddites! I've always paid online, but I decided to try the new free number that Cingular sent to me via SMS (3 times in one afternoon). *729 from my phone. They ask for your 10 digit phone number and a couple of other things, then give you a confirmation number after the transaction is complete. Faster than online and just as effective. I'll use it from now on. -- Jack Yeah, I gotta agree. Online payment is how it's done now, and I personally have not written a check for over a year. It still seems dumb that they charge to take payment, however. > > > Get a f.cking checking account you losers. > > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > by mail for the first year, and online ever since I figured out > that you could.

Guess what buddy, I used a debit card!!!!!! As for the comment above you. I'm sorry that you are having a bad day. I have those periodically. those days are usually caused by people that are looking for something. I guess I just to get a, what kind of, checking account. Who offers them? Is this like a sexual account? I guess if I was a looser I could not get one, therefore I would have to pay cash, use a debit or credit card. If I was a looser then I probably would not even have cash. I use the onine bill paying through my bank (well credit union) It send everyting electronically and if it can't it sends a check. I set up most of my payments to go automatically. It more than pays for itself by avoiding late fees. And it's a one stop website to pay all my bills. >>>Get a f.cking checking account you losers. >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > would have to pay cash, use a debit or credit card.

Perhaps best of all, if your CU is like mine, the payment that Cingular receives comes from a third party payment processing company; your checking account and routing transit numbers do not appear on the check, so Cingular can't "accidentally" double-dip your checking account when processing your payment. SignatureSloth Kills! http://www.geocities.com/slothkills/ Thats how mine works The check actually comes from the credit unions processor. >>I use the onine bill paying through my bank (well credit union) It send >>everyting electronically and if it can't it sends a check.

Excellent point. Hadn't thought of that. I always use my credit card for my automatic bill pay for this double dip reason. I went by the local office to pay my bill. They would not accept payment for my bill unless I paid a $2 fee. This was (___) not Joe's (___). Insert: gas company, electric company, cable company, landline telephone company, satellite TV provider, water company, department of licensing, etc. I wonder how these guys stay in business!? And good luck getting out of paying your bill because you walk in with a video camera. You have free bill-payment options, if you choose not to use them, you choose not to use their service. Go to the supermarket and get a $0.25 money order, for chrissakes. > I went by the local office to pay my bill. They would not accept > payment for my bill unless I paid a $2 fee. This was Cingular not > Joe's Cellphone. Well, about the 25cent money order, If they cost 25 cents, I will agree with you. Nuf said. On to other stuff Chip Go to the supermarket and get a $0.25 money > order, for chrissakes. > >>I went by the local office to pay my bill.

A Cingular store isn't necessarily a payment center, any more than a PG&E service truck is necessarily a PG&E payment center.
