The next rag that prints lies expecting me to believe otherwise.
Remember the cliche, "I'd rather be pissed on than pissed off"? Be
careful for what you ask for, you might get it.

I have no vested interests other than the truth.
The truth:
1. The BBB is worthless in most cases, and drags on in letters and
counter letters and cases being closed without resolution; where as a
letter to a State Attorney General often gets QUICK results.
2. J.D. Power's rating of Cingular and AT&T Wirless have brought them
down to where SprintPCS' have been. WORST

Nonsense, as I've shown previously.

JD Power and Associates
2003 Wireless Network Quality Assessment Study
July 29, 2003:
Verizon Wireless ranks highest with a NQI score of 104 and performs
particularly well in the four most important call quality problem
areas: dropped/disconnected calls, static/interference, voice
distortion, and no connection on the first try. Nextel and Cingular
also perform above the industry average, with NQI scores of 103 and
101, respectively. AT&T Wireless performs at the industry average.

Quit whining.
No you haven't shown a thing. You just claimed. Isolated anecdotal

Duh - This is 2004, not 2003
Those are year old results. Now try 2004 Customer Support ratings.

You have that backwards -- my posts have been replete with URLs, whereas you
just make things up. When you do post a URL, you misconstrue what it says to
fit your agenda.

Again, you have that backwards.

Again, nonsense:
"In announcing the [California Department of Consumer Affairs] survey
results, the department praised the Better Business Bureau program
for demonstrating 'above-average consistency...'We think the question
of fairness goes directly to the opportunity for an oral hearing...to
give consumers their day in court,' said Peter Brightbill, chief of
the department's arbitration review program. 'The survey numbers bear
this out.'"

Different issue. Most of us care much more about network quality than about
relatively small differences in customer support.

The differences are actually pretty small, probably within the margin of error
in most cases.
