I heard the same thing from cingular and I have also talked to 3 very knowledgable gentelmen in a cingular retail store who all told me that what cingular told me is not true. Wifi is wifi and it is NOT charged by cingular as long as you aren't connecting through one of their services. My recommendation is, and this is what I did, call cingular and have them disable all access points so that it is impossible for you to ever connect via cingular's service. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PURCHASE A DATA PLAN TO GET THE 8125 OR THE 8525! CINGULAR CUSTOMER SERVICE STAFF DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT! Sorry, I am so angry with cingular over all of the misinformation I've received in the past 2 weeks (not to mention the past 3-4 years!) that I contacted their executive offices. I'll share the outcome with everyone very soon hopefully. |
