Did I get a good deal?

Thanks.

NOTE: At best we could have got a better dea, but my wife has to go with Ericson T616 ( Free at best buy). Our bill would have been $335

 

Hey after ATT, which burned me with roaming charges everywhere, except my front yard...I got hooked up with Cinggy also..been great b/c I travel alot...good coverage..saving cash...better phone for free...what can I say...And yes, I think, looking at teh numbers that you did get a better deal by changing over...Enjoy!!!

 

I will say you have got one of the best plans out there. I am not sure about the prices of the phones (I usually check deals on the left of the howardchui web pages with very discounted if not free V600s).

But yet you are getting the most expensive cellphone that cingular sells. Just do not forget to insure it !! - its well worth believe me.

If you are not gonna use Wireless internet or interactive messaging, call 1-866-CINGULAR and deactivate them for both phones. They charge a shitload for the pay per use features.

 

zamo,

Good Advice! I will try to insure my V600 and deactivate pay per use services.

BTW, check your PM.

Nahsua.

 

why would you want to deactivate? Text MSG and Wireless Internet? Both are inexpensive if you rarely use them.
