the problem with this , is that your looking at a small portion, with the whole company the CS is not a over all problem.
Much like everyone complaining that D* CS is bad, and it may be, but due to thier size, thier percentages reflect a better overall average.
D* wins CS awards every year.
I thing the same type of example can be used for at& t as well as Verizon.

Anybody ever deal with Sprint, or its Embarq spinoff?
Their customer service is more likely to push you into the path of an oncoming truck than actually help resolve anything. Their CS is the reason I have RoadRunner broadband (Time Warner) and ATT callvantage voip service in my home. Their CS is the reason I dumped our Sprint cellphones after less than a month of service.
If ATT bought Sprint/Nextel and Embarq, the services would most likely iimprove dramatically.
That's right. I can only get Embarq, the old Sprint and their DSL+phone service is WAY more than my cable modem. It's not even CLOSE in price unfortunately, but that is what you get when you have a city gov't that won't let but one phone company serve the area. At least we may get a new cable company now that the FCC has slapped them down.
Someone here said it was done a few weeks ago.
I don't have any documentation on it and have not heard anything definate at work, but then it's not what we would generally discuss at work either.
I can check when I get back to work and inquire, incase no one else has any better info.

Not to mention the fact that Malone has a long-standing track record of holding onto what he buys as "long-term" investments - no way he sells D*TV for some time to come.Again I will say search back a few years and see how many times this has been reported in December.
Seems like they keep pulling it out of the woodwork every year just before CES so that they have something to talk about at CES.
You'd think some of these investment "experts" would do some decent homework on "trends and histories" before doing their goofy WAG speculation.
Kinda reminds me of the days 20 years ago when the investment community was preaching " Some day, we'll all be working for Sears".
Also, once Rupert closes the deal, Vur---- will have to come up with some new negative name for D*TV, I suppose, since that one will be obsolete.

I just think it's funny that Rupert did not call it that until he decided to unload it.

...and still there was a buyer...What's even funnier is that he called it that once, and Vu--- has used it a thousand times since. Talk about milking a one-liner.I just think it's funny that Rupert did not call it that until he decided to unload it.

Trust me AT&T and customer service do not belong in the same sentence..They suck!
IMO AT&T in New Jersey (Headquarters) has no human employees..However there might be 10,000 automated menu servers at that location ...You cannot do business with AT&T because it impossible to get a human on the phone..
If I was in a Bell South service area and this merger got ok'd by the FCC ,I would drop my land line service like a bad habit.
