    Re: A Challenge for Bob Smith


    I'll say this:

    1. Sprint screwed up catering to the bad credit crowd. 90% of their
    long wait times and other CS issues most likely stem from the fact that
    they let people with a history of notpaying up sign on with no deposit,
    instead placing an account spending limit on their account. And then
    these people ***** when they don't pay their bill and service gets cuts off.

    2. Sprint needs to work to get Nokia and Motorola back into making
    phones for them. And Sprint needs to drop Samsung. Their phones SUCK.

    3. Sprint botched the Vision launch, pretty badly.

    No, not true. in fact, I'd say Verizon's got worse computer issues than
    Sprint, and yet they still manage to make *228 possible. Verizon has to
    find a way to merge the billing and CS systems of every carrier they're
    bought up. And the result of all that is they have problems of their
    own (you have to get your VZW account "flagged" for 1x data service if
    you have a 1x capable phone, and apparently that's been hell for some
    people).

    You're right though Sprint should offer a * code to update your phone's
    PRL. And I don't see why they can't.

    Poorly working -- Many times the web site is down for maintainence or
    something in the middle of the day. Not at 3am on Sunday like it should.

    Impractical -- Here's one: Ever tried cleaning your Sprint PCS email when it
    is full? #1, it's *very* slow. And even worse at #2 is, you have to check
    each email you want to delete. 99% of web based email interfaces have a
    'select all' function to avoid that problem.

    The workaround to that is a pain...POP your email from your account to
    delete all, but then you have to delete all from whatever mail reader you
    use. That isn't customer friendly for the average user.

    Granted, it's not the most user friendly email interface. I just went
    there, had 21 unread spam emails, I checked off the first 20 and
    nothing appeared to happen. After about 20 seconds or so of waiting, I
    went up to Tools - Options, and cleared the cache. Boom, all 20
    disappeared. Deleted the last one post haste.

    I believe it's still a work in progress, as I don't remember the check
    boxes the last time I visited the email. Previously, I had to go into
    each email to delete it, so it's better than what it was before. Not
    all the way there as you mentioned above, but it's getting there.

    OK, you seem to know so much about my job and who I'm in contact with,
    give me a list of the techs I have in my distribution lists and who's
    compliant.

    Oh, wait, you can't?

    You havce no idea who I talk to on a day to day basis, and who I
    communicate to on a regular basis. I have a distribution list of
    approx. 60 people, mostly technicians, but some managers, senior
    technicians, area technicians, corperate trainers, loss prevention etc..

    Now, even if all 60 were technicians, that would roughly be 10% of ALL
    the technicians in the retail channel.

    So, when I say 99% of the technicians that I DEAL WITH, I'm talking
    about them.

    Don't start thowing an attitude when you haven't comprehended what was
    clearly written.

    Also, are you that egocentric that you feel you have to create a new
    login often just so people who don't want to talk to you, or see your
    posts, have to see them and then have to take time out of their day to
    add your flavor of the day nickname? (And other nicknames you not so
    obviously done in the past)?

    We've had enough posts here with people driving all over a city looking
    for firmware updates out for months, and techs unable/unwilling to help.
    Does Louisville, Kentucky ring a bell?

    And like I said, I don't know anyone there, and I've been unable to find
    someone who I know who does.

    You seem to think I know every tech in the country, which I never made
    that claim.

    Then you're making it up that 99% are good.

    I rest my case.

    I dunno, maybe I check the site at odd times or something, but I haven't
    had this problem.
