Yeah, they became Cingular here, too. For a couple months. Now Alltel has their regional network.
Bunch of worthless fucks. My old plan had 450 minutes, free long distance, national calling (I could even call from Canada and not get charged extra), free text messages, etc. For $40/month.
The best Alltel could give me was 1000 minutes (I almost never use 100...wtf do I need 1000 for), free long distance/mobile-to-mobile, but I can't leave the region (Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas - whoopdie fucking doo) or it'll charge me $0.59/minute. No text (or it costs more). No web (or it costs more). No insurance on the phone (or it costs more). For the same fucking price!
Give me back my AT&T!
