Hello [H].
Let me preface this. I want to get a deal with AT&T. I have yet to be successful. They are pretty much stonewalling me. Who knows, I might be crazy. I'd like the resourceful [H]orde to take a look at the situation.
I have a Family talk plan currently with 550 minutes. I have Family texting for my phone and my girlfriends phone. We share minutes and mostly text because I am in meetings, or otherwise unable to 'talk' on the phone. So 'talking' is best done through text.
I want data on my Blackberry Bold. I had data. But, they kept telling me that my discount didn't apply to any of my additional services. Then they did. So I bit on it, until I got my bill and went down to AT&T huffing and puffing (not really) because the reason why I bought the data plan in the first place and what I was quoted for was instead a fabrication to get me to agree to the service. What a load.
So I took the data package back off. Now, I am eligible to upgrade my phone. But I want to work it out with AT&T to keep me as a customer instead of moving onto VZW with their awesome DROID.
So I call AT&T, I asked to match VZW's quote of 100$ to get the DROID, and everything I want which is the following:
- Similiar voice plan. Lowest possible.
- Unlimited Texting for both phones.
- Unlimited Data for my Blackberry, not my girlfriends.
I spoke to three reps. They all told me essentially the same thing: "Go to VZW, we aren't making a deal."
As anyone had any luck negotiating with these guys? Jeez.
