looks like ma bell is re-assembling
first AT&T sold off to wireless to Cingular. then turned around and purchased Southwestern Bell. Now AT&T is getting ready to purchase back Cingular.
looks like anti-trust and monopoly don't exist in same regulation any longer.
Thousands of jobs have been lost in the shuffle and more will be gone in next phase. Great for getting retirement/medical liabilities off balance sheet, but not so good for employees or customers.
looks like honey moon is over with pricing going up on basic wireless services to $39 for cheapest option.
I'm still on the $19 ($25 w/tax) but service is getting so bad, they are forcing me to switch to new GSM service. (get one bar signal strength in middle of Tulsa) which lowest price is $39. for me this means a forced doubling of cost for wireless services.
still cannot believe this adminstration has allowed this and other mega mergers to happen.
not much we can do but pay...
