OK, I know you don't work for T-Mobile but I have a question.

I'm in desperate need for a Sidekick but T-Mobile is telling me I have to pay 319.99 for the phone. This is through actual T-Mobile store and I was wondering if I could maybe negotiate with authorized dealers for a cheaper price since they aren't like directly in contact with the service providers. Does it work like this?

I Had it since oct last year with no real problems.I recently lost my phone this past weekend. I wasnt trippin 2 bad cuz it was like $10 refurbished n my account was suspened so no lost money/time, plus i was gonna get a new next month. The problem is since they merged with cingular they switched up da plan so u get less for more and since its no longer att n different plan i cant transfer my balance over.I just paid it. I was gonna get the Motorola V220 but since its not att I still couldnt use it with my old sim. I dont wanna lose da $36 I have left but if do I still have a sim card with the same plan, I really just want a way 2 keep my same plan using a new cinular phone. 2 many people givin me 2 run around. I tried the cingular(old att) store with no luck.

Thats how my sh*t was I had the AT&T gophone and didn't I haven't used it for like 8 months and when I went up to the new cingular place in town the man took my phone and is getting it unlocked into a cingular phone and a free sims cards...they had to send the phone to ATL to get it unlocked...they gave me a phone for right now...

Luck do you know of any good flip phones from cingular that you can hook me up with...I wanna start a contract but I dont' wanna really pay that deposit...

any way to get free internet for lg 1400?

dropkicknu said: yo do you know about the discounts on your bill that you can get? when i signed up for cingular i wasn't in a cingular store it was this place called super wireless. they got me to sign the contract by offering me a 25% discount on my bill each month. it's pretty tight. it shows up on my features list as "BLS-SBC 25% DISC" so now every month i get 25% off my bill

thats fire they must of attatched like a corporate discount or something

youll probly get the silver 1 but at this point locklins employees ar very unintelegent so sayin you had the black 1 might work, and as far as selling the old theres no problem with that

theres no way you should lose your balance, but if you get into a cingular phone you gonna have to change ya plan and sim, so your best bet is to find an unlocked quad band gsm phone to pop your att chip in..

theyre billin department sucks ya just gotta find yaself knowlegable rep to speak on your behalf, preferably a corporate rep, but i dun goot alotta credits for my customers

The price for the Sidekick 2 straight up is 379.99 and with a contract it's 319.99. The reason that's it's so expensive is because T-Mobile requires you to have a certain monthly quota in order to recieve special upgrade pricing.

I don't qualify for that so these are the prices that are given to me. Is it possible to haggle with the authorized dealers and possibly get good prices on phones in general?

you can try but usualy with an upgrade dealers get paid sh*t so it ell be hard,

My brother just got Cingular with my dad while I'm on T-Mobile with my mom and I think he just got shafted with the phone. It's a Motorolla v180 and it seems really sh*tty. What do you think of the phone?

It's also possible for them to sell you the phone without a plan right?

Hey Dlucks when i go to get my service what are they going to charge me for????i k now they're going to charge me for the phone but what else.

dlucks said: thats fire they must of attatched like a corporate discount or something

yeah they did, they called it a "care" account. they had to call up cingular and give them some special code to activate it. yo this place was off the hook son. not only did they do that, they also sold me the motorola v551 for $50. it was actually free because i'm getting a $50 rebate back. they seriously printed out 2 reciepts. one for me with the price i paid, and one to send in to cingular with my rebate form, saying i paid more for the phone. :D they were like, "make sure you don't send them the lower price receipt!" and on top of all that they also gave me a free car charger and a free clip. nice huh :applause:

this is kinda weird i brought the motorola v220 n got it activated with da lil pay as u go with cingular but the chip from my old phone doesnt work with it i tried my old at&t in my friends phone n it worked n i tried it it this girls sprint phone n it works but with the new phone it says i need unlocked i tried 2 call cingular but they sayin i cant get the code cuz its not cingular at first ol gul seem like she was gonna give it 2 me but i guess her supervisior saifd otherwise i told her n her reply was that its not supposed 2 be workin in their phone i paid retail price so i should be availbe 2 go where i want with the phone dlucks see what u can do thanks in advance
