While it is frustrating to have to change carriers, if you had better service before the transition, then you were probably using a Verizon tower anyway. Enjoy your new service.Oz Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17298717393298238178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2789017239427251571.post-54444415251952343402011-05-18T05:33:45.618-06:002011-05-18T05:33:45.618-06:00Sorry my families transition was anything but smoo...Sorry my families transition was anything but smooth, and I spent hours and hours on hold only to receive regardless answers from the Customer Service folks. ON the day of transition they shut my Alltel off at 8AM and I had to go to an ATT store the next day to get the phone working. Now my bill is incorrect.Plus AFTER the transition we find connection is iffy at best. ATT answers..it will improve in a few months. There CS absolutely sucks. I am switching to Verizon as is the rest of my family.

In fairness, At&t's problems here are arising due to work they are conducting on their towers to convert them to 3G, but that doesn't make the issues any less severe. If the FCC does not allow the T-Mobile purchase to go through, I can see At&t starting a slow but steady phase of declining subscribers followed by quarterly subscriber losses. At&t is feeling the spectrum crunch.Williamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2789017239427251571.post-47240820919877403092011-04-27T09:20:26.083-06:002011-04-27T09:20:26.083-06:00Where do you live?

Most problems have been in Montana and the Dakotas where Alltel users were actually roaming on Verizon sites instead of Alltel's.Oz Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17298717393298238178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2789017239427251571.post-53384259687855453212011-04-26T14:29:57.863-06:002011-04-26T14:29:57.863-06:00Very painful switchover...neither my old phone wor...Very painful switchover...neither my old phone worked, nor my new phone for hours on the morning of the 21st. Now, my phone is working intermittently if I turn it off for a minute, and then back on. AT&T has apparently dropped the ball on this transition. They had months to prepare and get the technology in place, and there are still all of these problems? I can't imagine that there is a company in the USA that is more incompetent than AT&T. I am switching to Verizon tomorrow. Actually, everyone I know from work, as well as our work account which has 5 or 6 lines is switching. AT&T needs to get their heads out of their asses and and learn how to conduct business along with Barrack Hussein Obama...lol.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06117697838903654344noreply@blogger.com
