try using the 2004 National ratings released today, rather than the
2003 Regional ratings.
Too bad you SprintPCS apologists are in denial.

Excuse me, trollboy- the Regional ratings referenced are the ones associated
with the 2004 survey. Your ignorance to the facts is overwhelming.

That's because Philly is a blind sprintpcs denialist.
I'd say he lives in a rathole, but we already know that.

Don't you mean falling down to Sprint?
Also keep in mind that we are only talking about Customer Service at 611. Their
network keeps improving and using Sprint PCS is a great esperience now days.

I think that was the general idea.

Yeah, see, the thing is, we don't generally *have* to call Customer Service.
When we do, we've not had any trouble with them (which is not to say they don't
have problems, of course; I've never claimed they don't have problems, but
certain people like to ignore that fact).

I called a few mnutes ago (a billing issue) because they got a recent change
screwed up.
I got a human almost immediatly (no wait time after negotiating the menu
system). He asked what the problem was I was calling about and as I explained
it to him, he fixed it.
When we got donw with the conversation, he said that if I would hold a moment
he would make the change retroactive back to when I called to make the change
the first time. Within a moment or two he was back on the line to tell me that
the new balance was $97.24 instead of the $144 plus a few cents that was on the
bill.
He asked if he could do anything else for me and we hung up.
Maybe 10 minutes total time on the phone for the problem!

Yeah, we all did.
Apparently, we were wrong.
Either that or someone *else* is in denial! <g>
