Cingular just had a MAJOR F-UP in florida...

[aphex]

Haha, actually quite entertaining...

Called my dad from my phone book (did not dial the # myself), in the middle of ringing, it made a LOUD bzzzzzzrrrppp noise, and then some random guy picked up asking for a girl.

WTF. He said he just called his girlfriend and got me, i called my dad and got him.

2 minutes later i call my dad, he said he picked up the phone when he heard it ring and some random girl answered, the girls phone had been ringing too.

My mom then calls me 2 minutes later and asked WTF happened. She was in the middle of a call to a client and it switched into a three way call with two other people who were already talking.

HAHA, gotta love it

 

[moshquerade]

sounds like a game of phone twister

 

[antyler]

shocking, cingular is so jacked right now.

 

[aphex]

Ok, guess its not fixed yet. I just got a call from a 'Jennifer' who was looking for 'Steve'

 

[Phoenix86]

Party line for the win!

shens learn what a wrong number is.

I can picture some technician at a switching board brushing up again the terminals with a screwdriver without realizing he's crossing the connections.

Too bad you didn't get in on some hot lesbian phone sex.

lol, that would be funny as hell if he's just brushing a screwdriver along and messing this all up :laugh:

That's awesome

Only awesome if you don't NEED something... if it were an emergency and it patched you through to PetSmart instead of 911 or something... that would suck.

 

[aphex]

They must be working on something as i can't make any calls at the moment.

Just get a fast busy.

There are cases when it might work...

...like if you were trying to call 911 because you were being attacked by a dog, they could sell you a muzzle or something...

ive never had a mess up like that, but there have been times(2 actually) where i picked the phone up before it rang, began dialing a friends number, only to figure out he was already on the line as he had called me...

 

[Skyhanger]

It happened to me too about a year ago w/ t-mobile. For about 8 hours one night i kept getting switched over to random ppl and random ppl got diverted to me.

 

[Carbo]

Idiots on cell phones. Cell phone jammers FTW!

 

[Juno]

oh crap, i have tmobile sidekick2 but am using cingular as my service carrier. i hope i don't get jacked.

 

[PetunZ]

It's happened to me out in So. Cal. as well. It was only a one time occurrence, but I was shocked when the caller ID said that my mom was calling, only to pick up and have a young girl talking to me. It was cingular as well.

 

[EvilYoda]

Too bad you didn't hear any vital information...maybe someone got a good stock tip during that hiccup

 

[brxndxn]

I wanna start a 'Cingular customers union'...

No cell phone company has screwed me more than Cingular.. and I was FUMING mad at Tmobile when I switched.

Cingular likes to act like it's normal for it to take me 5 times or more to dial out.. and flat out not be able to dial out when there's a decent amount of people around. It's basically impossible to dial out while on campus.

Oh ya.. my friends call me and get voice mail without my phone ever ringing.. Then I see 'missed call' hours or days later.

Seriously, Cingular is complete SH!T. They really need to fix their service.

 

[Gibson486]

My gf's sister has cingular and everytime she shuts off her phone and you try calling her, it just says that her number doesn't exist.

Don't worry bout it, if you see Odin's other posts in other threads, you'd know that he's pretty retarded.

Like a reapeating recorded voice that says, "Buy Cingular.......buy Cingular........buy Cingular"
