Voice Mail Deposit On My Cingular Wireless Bill...Again!

Hi,

I can't believe I'm the only one getting Voice Mail Deposit minute
charges on my Cingular Wireless bill! The bill I received yesterday had
them again, despite dozens (literally!!!) of promises from CW that it
wouldn't happen again.

Please, check the charges on your bill. You may have some minutes
charged to Voice Mail Deposit. If so, the charges are fraudulent. Please
contact me about it at [email protected]

Let's stop fraudulent Cingular Wireless charges!!!

I have two Cingular lines, I have several months of bills downloaded, and I
have no charges for Voice Mail Deposit. Never seen it. This is in the MA
market.

I'm in Southern California. The people at CW also claim that *they* have
never seen VMD.

Imagine that!!!

I see it every month. I can't believe I'm the only one.

It's because they don't like you.

Ya think?

If I can find a few others they don't like, they're *really* not going
to like me.

C'mon, people, check your bills!

I had this problem with Cingular where they were charging me toll
charges every time I dialed into voice mail (I'm on a Nation plan). I
would call every month, and they would credit the erroneous charges
(between $2-$10). This went on for about 9 months, and finally the
charges stopped.

Your only hope is that one time when you call in, you'll get a smart
person who knows how to fix the problem. Until then, you'll probably
be stuck calling them every month to get your credit.

This started happening for me about 6 months ago and still is ongoing.
I call every two months for credit.

We can nail these guys!

Thanks!

Insted of trying to "nail these guys" have you actually taken the time to
take your bill to a Cingular store and see what they can do?

Quit screwing around with them and file a complaint with the
California Department of Consumer Affairs.

http://www.dca.ca.gov/

http://www.dca.ca.gov/complainthelp/...complaint.html

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS
400 R Street
Sacramento, CA 95814
(800) 952-5210

I have spoken on the phone to *at least* two Cingular Wireless employees
(first the customer service person, then the supervisor) MONTHLY FOR SIX
MONTHS!

Every time they lie to me about what VMD is (and they have some pretty
imaginative lies), then they swear it will never be on my bill again.

Finally, I got fed up and decided to try to take some action.

Reasonable?

Thanks. I will use that option in conjunction with other actions.

But you still didnt take it to a Cingular store. Take it there. Get a face
on the voice. It works better. You dont seem interested in persuing all your
options.

I'm a half-hour from the nearest Cingular Wireless store. THEY are
making the mistake and *I* should have to put in an hour of driving to
fix it?

You gotta be kidding.

No actually sometimes the best way to right a wrong is face to face.

Or accept it!
