    Default Cingular customer service sucks

    Damn about 8 years ago I use to be with bellsouth and left them to AT&T Because there customer service sucks.

    call: long ass waits- I know they have a bunch of customers now.. Hire more people.

    Go to the store, long as wait and you have to sign in, wtf is this a hospital?

    Cingular should get better Quality employees or payed them more to make them happy, Becuase most of them fucking suck.

    I work for Cingular now and I must say..it's gotten worse. They are changing the commission scale (once again) and not paying anything for one year contracts. So all these people that listen to Clark Howard when he says only do one year contracts won't be getting shit from me. Sorry, I have to make money too. Sometimes the customers attitude towards us sucks, but hey i'm "just" a sales rep.

    As far a hold times for customer service, i've never had anything over three minutes in the 1+ year i've been there..other than the holiday season with the multiple 20-50 mins hold times but thats a known in the industry. My store will get you in and get you out, we are glad to say we are not super busy like town center, holcomb woods, buckhead, etc.

    I sell Cingular and have selling cellphones in general for about 4 years now...i have to say their customer service is by far the worst....to activate a phone takes normally about 45 min (thats when everything goes right)....when shit hits the fan during an activation may God have mercy on your soul...b/c they won't....calling normal customer is just as worst i hear horror each and everyday....

    if you were interested you'd have interrupted me like everyone else ...

    what i don't miss:
    "eh man, eh man, eh man, eh.... eh...... hellooooooooo.... i'm talking you you! where da bafrooms at?"


    oh, and cingular does suck, at least as far as they treat their employees. i left just in time apparently and couldn't be happier with my decision. they are fucking employees over left and right and very soon will have to start making up for that because the shit will hit the fan. piss off sales reps=sales go down the shitter.

    I heard that after the merger that it has became an even shittier company and people had all types of problems with customer service. They had somebody on Clark Howard to "clear the air" and the guy gave out all these political answers and remedies
