I called this morning to ask about what tablet I was getting for a dollar.
As it turned out they had no record of the order and they said I could not reorder over the phone, I had to go to a local store. I called the store before driving down and they had none in stock, they estimated a 2 week wait.
I called back and asked for a supervisor but the woman said she would be able to handle it. When it became apparent she could not solve my
problem I asked again for a supervisor and she insisted that it would not do any good.
I finally talked to a supervisor and explained that I was an AT&T and DirecTV customer for 9 years and was ready to switch my cell to AT&T and if they could not get me a phone I was switching to cable TV & internet, that got their attention.
I went over the old order and the initial reason I called was to as about the tablet I was getting for $1. It turned out that the tablet was almost the same size as the note 7. and it internet usage was not paired to the unlimited phone. I would have to pay $40 extra a month for unlimited tablet internet. I canceled the tablet and will use the note 7 as a tablet. So by dropping tablet I got the monthly down to $100 and paid for the note 7 up front. While I was at it I switched colors. I like silver but a lot of people said that blue looks stunning so I am now getting but.
So my new deal is $100 a month with no tablet and the note 7 paid for up front. I just figure why bother paying $40 extra per month for a TAB if I want internet on a screen the same sizes my phone plus why bother caring around two devices (if I wanted a large screen TAB it would cost $500 a month for an 18 inch screen.
I an somewhat happy they messed up the order because I believe I am better off with just the phone, plus I still have a old Verizon Samsung TAB I bough when I was in Tucson last year so I can always activated that if necessary.
I just hope the color change from silver to blue was the right decision, I hope it is as good as I read it is.
