Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Cingular / May 2005AT+T switch to cingular
 SignatureRoland roland2@adelphia.net Is there any class action going on against Cingular for charging $18 if you upgrade to a newer phone because you singed up with AT+T ? That has nothing to do with it. A year ago if an existing AWS customer wanted to buy a new phone from them they were charged the exact same $18 fee. It is a common practice among cell carriers to add this type of charge. Again, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Cingular take over.

I may add that when an existing Cingular upgrades his phone after his contract expires, he will also be charged $18 upgrade/processing fee. > That has nothing to do with it.

That is why THIS former ATTWS now Cingular customer is going to switch out of Cingular when his TDMA service is turned off. I will not reward them with my continued business if they try to take advantage of me. It may be a frivilous way of making a statement, but that is the only power I have over them. Screw Cingular, and screw their $18.00 fee!

Not sure who you plan to use as your new carrier, but you're going t pay an activation charge with your new carrier, probably around $35. I'm not really sure what your point is, when every carrier charge activation charges, you're going to pay an activation charge somewhere I have found that when you call and complain enough, they will waive that fee. I also got them to add 300 bonus minutes (ATT) by just selecting i want to cancel service in the phone idiot system. I called selected that option and said i wanted the bonus minutes and now they are on@ |
