Best Calling Card

Just wondering why on my Google page the widget is now requiring me to sign in each time I visit the iGoogle page. It hadn’t done this in the past. Just started happening a day or so ago.

 

It is quite annoying now that I have to re-sign in for every time I go to my Google page!

Again, this is yet another example of Boost pre-paid getting a phone BEFORE Nextel post-paid.  Something just isn’t right here, and I believe the blame should be put squarely on our illustrious management. 

 

As for the info, thanks for the post Sarah.

As I stated to TRKR13, your post is useless and pointless because it is being posted in the completely WRONG area of this forum.  If you were using VAM, then it’s a different story, but you never mentioned it.  Furthermore, this particular thread is about the VAM SURVEY!

 

Seriously, people (especially you newbies)…if you’re going to post a rant, great…do so in the rant section UNLESS it has something DIRECTLY to do with VAM, surveys in general, or this survey in particular.  To address anything else (e.g., poor customer service, annoyed pricing schemes, etc.) is simply ignorant and it makes your complaint/rant completely irrelevant.  

 

Just wanted to let you know.  

Here we go again!!! I seem to remember a comparison of the Instink to the Iphone ad that they conviently don’t show anymore. Just another hype campaign where they’ll end up promising the world.

The Motorola® Clutch^TM i465 will be available this summer, in all Sprint sales channels, including Sprint stores, www.sprint.com/nexteldirectconnect and 1-800-Nextel-9 for $39.99 with a new two-year service agreement, $20 instant rebate and $50 mail-in rebate (excluding taxes).

Register for more information about availability for Motorola Clutch i465 at www.sprint.com/clutch.

Fueled by the Nextel National Network, the Clutch is a rugged device in a slender candy bar form factor, and the first Nextel Direct Connect® messaging-centric device that brings the strength of a full QWERTY keyboard to the iDEN line. Motorola Clutch i465 also offers Group Messaging, which lets customers create groups of up to 20 people to send messages to at the same time.

Buzz is partnering with Sprint Customer Care to improve our telephone customer service and we need your help. We want to make sure you’re getting what you need quickly and easily when you call Sprint, so we’re running a study to find ways to improve our automated phone system. By participating, you can share your reactions and opinions of our automated phone system, tell us what you do and don’t like, and give us suggestions for how we can make the system better.

How you can help. Taking part is simple–make one call into the Sprint automated phone system and complete an online survey. The study takes less than 15 minutes and you can complete it at a time that works for you.

Signing up. Go to https://www.vocalabs.com/panelist [Updated to secure site URL] to register to participate in the study. You’ll get an email from our survey provider, Vocalabs, with instructions on when the study will be run (we’re targeting mid-June) as well as instructions for making the call and completing the survey.

What happens next? We’ll use the opinions you share to identify ways we can change our automated phone system to make it work better for you. Over the next several months, we’ll be rolling out any changes to the system based on what you tell us.

Don’t miss your chance to tell Sprint what you really think and help create the telephone customer service experience you want!

The LIVE portion of this event is over. The forum will be monitored daily for the next 2 weeks to answer additional questions.

The 2009 hurricane season will be here before you know it and as usual, Sprint has made strategic preparations within its network and business continuity divisions, and Emergency Response Team to ensure a seamless communications experience for customers, first responders, and business clients that may be impacted by storms.

In recognition of National Hurricane Preparedness Week and in an effort to remind our customers and business clients what we’re doing to prepare for hurricane season, Sprint is hosting a live forum session with Tanya Lin, manager of the Sprint Emergency Response Team and Mark Sudduth, founder of HurricaneTrack.com.

This live forum will take place next Wednesday, May 27 at 1 p.m. EST. Buzz About Wireless users will be able to ask our guests information about Sprint’s preparations; what the company has done in the past to ensure seamless wireless coverage during a major storm of hurricane; how Sprint’s wireless service proves beneficial to customers, businesses, and first responders; and tips that customers can utilize to stay connected to their family and friends during an emergency situation.

In addition, Mark Sudduth can discuss how he uses Sprint technology to assist with collecting data and report on hurricanes and tropical storms as they make landfall. During a storm, he uses a high-speed mobile broadband card to monitor, collect and share hurricane data, photographs and video instantaneously with the public, government agencies, corporate clients and broadcasters through his website. Through the years, Mark has experienced some of the nation’s worst storms including Hurricane Katrina.

To join that forum event on Wednesday, May 27 or view to the forum for 2 weeks after the live event click here.

If you are unable to attend the live event or wish to pre-submit questions, please email them to asksprintert@buzzaboutwireless.com.
