I just received a phone call:
"Is this John Doe?, I'm calling from SprintPCS to follow up on a recent contact
you had with SprintPCS".
"What Department are you with?" I ask?
"We just have some questions"
Are you a Sprint employee?" I ask
He hangs up on me.
If he had asked what I thought of SprintPCS, I'd have pointed out:
+ Dishonest commercial about Complete Sense and integration
+ Still no proper coverage maps as required by Consumer Code
+ Coverage maps drawn by marketing, color over known dead zones to pretend they
don't exist.
+ Dishonest attempt to extend Advantage Agreement
+ Dishonest application of retention plan (promised Vision, didn't deliver)
+ Impossible to deal with Customer Service
Hold times too long
6 minute goals, so they rush you off line
CSRs don't help you they want to upsell you
CSRs refuse to uniquely identify themselves "My name is Mike, that's all
I have to tell you"
CSRs NEVER escalate a call, they transfer you back to bull pen
CSRs commonly hang up on you to "Complete the Call"
Untrained CSRs - don't know about PRL flagging, ESN swaps.
Lie to get you off the phone " We'll research and call you back" and of
course call never comes
+ Sprint leaving customers with known defective phones - i.e. Samsung Black
8500
+ Secret lists of known problem phones and phones with "issues" ie Sanyo 4500
Speaker phone
+ SprintPCS not being proactive with firmware updates, even in safety
situations.
+ Store techs lying that they don't have a firmware update, so they don't have
to install it.
+ Sprint refusing to honor phone warrantees (You must have dropped it)
+ Insulting employees seen on USENET - alt.cellular.sprintpcs
+ Overpriced phones (Samsung i500 versus cheaper better Kyocera 7135)
+ Web site can't tell you minutes used in too many situations
+ Understaffed SprintPCS owned stores
+ Overcharges for cost recovery for Portability and Pooling ($1.15/month per
phone is a ripoff)
+ 18 month replacement rule not valid if warrantee replacement needed, is an
unreasonable restriction.

If you used the same attitude you use here, I would have hung up on you,
too. And why have you posted the same long winded post three times in the
last three hours?

when I get a call at work, and the customer is rude right off the bat, I
say "hold please" and then hang up. If they're nice, I'm the nicest
person ever. do unto others..

ya, as of two hours ago --- but don't go pointing at me as you and a few
others who are trying to 'right the wrong' have far more than the 5 or 6
posts I have posted asking to stop feeding this punk. It's like you don't
know the old saw about wrestling the pig only to find out the pig's enjoying
it. So get off the high horse and stop feeding the punk.
Remember, your key word here is today --- and you can "cite" that from your

Tom, who made you the grand poo-bah of this newsgroup?
Consider your self lucky that you haven't had your email address unmunged
and posted here in this newsgroup so that the spam bots can pick them up.
There are several pissed off people here, including yours truly @ Phillipe's
actions in this group.
Yes, Phillipe the troll thrives on this, but some folks here have the right
to challenge his lies, innuendo, and the crap that he posts under his
multiple ID's ...
