Upgrade your at&t Unlimited texting to unlimited texting with unlimited mobile to mobile calling

Just a heads up to everyone since a lot of my friends don't seem to know about the new unlimited texting plan from at&t.
For the same price as the current unlimited texting plans $20 individual $30 family, you can now get free mobile to mobile calling to any mobile phone on any network. You do have to call at&t to switch or switch via your online account under services. Be sure to backdate the upgrade although I believe you can only backdate to the 15th as thats when the plan went live.
I like things that go beep

I currently have an iPhone 3GS with unlimited data. I would like to upgrade to the Motorola Atrix and roll my unlimited data plan over. I have been assured by AT&T that this can be done.
I went into BB last night to do the upgrade and the gentleman at in the mobile dept told me that it can not be done at BB and that even if he tried to do it over the phone with AT&T they would deny it. For reasons I don't wish to get into I would rather upgrade at BB than at my local AT&T store.
I see from other threads on here that it can be done in a BB store. Any idea what the procedure is that they need to follow so that I can get this done?
If you have some specific issue with your local AT&T store, perhaps try a different one?
If you want good service without screwups, you want to go to a carrier-owned AT&T store.  (An actual company store - some are franchisees/resellers/kiosks).  In this case you can't afford a screwup - once you've been transitioned to a non-unlimited data plan (even accidentally), it is extremely difficult if not impossible to go back.

  • What is the process to upgrade at full retail, switch SIM cards, and keep old plan with unlimited data feature

    I'm on a really old plan...America's Choice Family Share 500, Free N&W, with 2 lines, and each line has the unlimited data feature on the line.
    Neither line has a texting package.
    I currently have a Droid Bionic (large SIM card) & want to get a Droid Turbo (small SIM card).  It is literally cheaper for me to pay full retail for a phone (actually 2 phones) than switch to a "More Everything" plan because my plan is so old.  Across the two lines, we probably only use 3-5 GB/mo, so we aren't 'heavy' data users, but we aren't using 1-2GB/mo either.
    I went into a VZW Corporate store, and they said I should be able to keep my plan with unlimited data if I pay full retail, but the sales person said their system has been knocking off unlimited data for other customers, even for something as small as a SIM card change.
    I tried upgrading on verizonwireless.com, and the system tried to kick me out of my America's Choice Family Share 500 plan.
    What is the process to get a new phone, pay ~$600 for it, get the new SIM card assigned to the account, and keep my calling plan with unlimited data?
    (I also have the option to turn on & off Mobile Hot-Spot for $30/mo at will...but probably only have it active for 1 week a year, if that)
    Thanks!

    Just log into your my verizon and order a phone at the full retail price. When you add the phone to the cart you choose 2 yr price, edge or full and then hit add. You will have to choose a plan but that plan does not go into effect since you are buying a phone out of contract, it is just part of the process. You then will not lose the data

  • Texting to verizon customers not unlimited?

    For the first time ever since I've had a cell phone (so at least 8 years), my husband and I went over our allowance in texting.  It was always my understanding that texting from one Verizon customer to another is unlimited.  Is this not true?

    Depends on which plan you have.....
    5000 messages pluus unlimited vzw mobile to mobile messaging  - $20
    500 messages plus unlimited vzw mobile to mobile messaging  -$10
    250 messages all together  -$5
    If you gave the $5 messaging plan you do not get unlimited messaging with Verizon customers. Are you both using other things for text messaging like mobile IM?

  • Texting to Canada from US with unlimited texting plan

    I have a plan with unlimited texting and I want to text a friend who lives in Canada with a Canadian phone carrier. We're both able to send and receive messages from each other, but I want to make sure I'm not being charged anything extra. I can't seem to find a solid answer.

    May I ask how this is possible that you don't have to have a international plan for texting to someone in Canada
    I inquired about texting to Canada and Verizon said I needed a international plan.
    thank you

  • How much would it be to add 2 more lines with unlimited talk and text?

    I would like to find out how much three lines would cost with unlimited talk and text

    BE WARNED!!!!
    I was just hammered by Verizon because I added 2 lines. I brought two family members over from other carriers to our "share everything plan". The iphones we ordered came with pre-assigned numbers. The family members wanted to keep their existing numbers and Verizon said to "just have them ported over".
    We didn't want, or had any use for the numbers that Verizon assigned the two new phones. When I got the phones I called the Port center at Verizon and they walked me through getting the numbers over from the other network. They had me activate the phones and then ported the numbers over (spend about a day on the process).
    So I just got my bill and was outraged. Verizon charged me $78 for the lines of the phones they sent. I was charged $78 just to activate the line so that a number could be ported over. So now I have an extra $156 on my bill not to mention the $$$ they added on to have the numbers ported over. So adding two people to my family share plan cost me $327.

    like about Mac/Apple?
    To answer your question: no, not really. However, the points that I made here were about Safari and accompanying utilities, not about Apple in general.
    If it makes you feel any better, I am just as, or even more, critical of Micro$oft as the occasions arise...Windoze Vista is the most recent occasion and has given sufficient reasons and opportunities to vent my spleen that I actually have eased up on Apple, politicians, nut-case religious extremists, cell phone owners, and the Department of Homeland Paranioa, etc., due to an exhaustion of creative energy.

  • Boycott upgrading your phone due to the Reboot Loop!

    HTC Incredible users please boycott upgrading your phone because of this patch/crash release.  It was done intentional and its working as designed.  Most of you are taking the bait and upgrading.  HTC & Verizon hate this phone and want as many users off of it as possible.  Think about it...the phone was no longer being sold almost 2 years ago...um everyone one's contract is close to an upgrade if not already.  HTC has had nothing but problems with this phone.  When the company release a patch for this phone it introduces another issue. No revenue comes from this phone anymore.  I myself only had one issue with the phone prior and that was the Galley not showing my pics/vids.  I had to power cycle the phone.  Other then that I love my phone...the provider and manufacture pushed me away.
    I have been in contact with others who are starting a class action law suit.   Verizon and HTC messed up and we should have to pay.  It's more like they need to pay.  Oh yeah, I lost my new borns pics/vids over this stunt so I'm ****** and going after them...please join in!

    I agree with you 100%... words cannot even explain how angry this makes me, and how wrong this is on so many levels.  Coincidence that this starts getting pushed out around the time Verizon does away with their unlimited plans??? NOT.  I'm with you on this Boycott idea.  Verizon seriously needs a swift kick in the face for the way they treat their customers.  Hmmm let's see - they did away with the VIP discount, they did away with the discount if you renewed your phone online instead of in person or on the phone, they did away with their unlimited plans... bottom line, they did away with any sense of loyalty entirely.  I've been with Verizon 10 years, and this is the thanks I get?  Our entire company uses Verizon... hmmm as the IT Director, I may have to pursuade them to use another carrier... 
    Disgusting....
    Anyway - from waht I hear it says in the Verizon contracts that you cannot file a class action lawsuit against Verizon, but I hope I heard wrong.  If you do make any headway with that I would certainly appreciate you sharing the information because I am so in on that.

  • If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server?

    I have several friends and family who are looking for a central place to access information from ( Pictures, home movies etc ).  So I am considering setting up an OSX Lion Server.  There are some other things I can use it for as well.
    Here is my question:
    If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server?  Or would I have to install the Admin software on each?  Do they intend it to be used strictly as one admin to access many clients? 
    I always could set up a network drive so they can log in and just see the folders they have created with space on the server I provide them.  But I want them to be able to log an and actually use it as a Remote Desktop.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Dave,
    Thanks for the feedback.  I understand that ARD is meant for Remote Administration, but I was not sure if it could be used for my purpose as well.  The reason I was looking to do it this was was because I read several articles online about security and performance issues with setting up VNC and activating screen sharing.  Unless I am misunderstood. 
    As far as people's activities on the server, mostly it is going to be used as a place for them to store their media.  I will only allow own person ( Who I trust and I know wont botch the server ), to run applications.  Everyone else will be restricted to uploading and downloading content to their designated account on the server as well as a community share on the server.
    I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • In CS4, "Cannot open file" "Please upgrade your plug-ins..."

    Greetings,
    I am using InDesign CS4 on a PC. I am trying to open an .indd file created by our marketing department. I don't know what version of InDesign they use nor whether they work on Macs or PCs.
    When I double-click to open the file, I get a "Cannot Open File" popup box. The box reads "Cannot open docname.indd. Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." It then lists 18 different plugins:
    ASSIGNMENTS.RPLN
    TEXT.RPLN
    SPREAD.RPLN
    MASTER PAGE.RPLN
    TEXT ATTRIBUTES.RPLN
    .... and 13 more.
    When I go to Help > Configure Plug-Ins, I can see that I do have all of these plug-ins. But apparently they are not the latest versions.
    Anyone know how I can update these plugins? I have searched for them on the Adobe website, but no joy.
    Thanks in advance.
    Jen

    It's a safe bet that they are working in CS5. The only way to get those plugins is to install CS5 on your machine.
    You could ask your marketing department to export an IDML file from CS5, which you can open up in CS4, but it might fail horribly (and it's guaranteed to lay out incorrectly if they've used any tools in CS5 that aren't in CS4). If you rely on this workflow, by regularly using a document going back and forth between CS5 and CS4, chances are very, very good that it will fail at a critical moment. The only really safe thing to do here is to get everyone using the same version of InDesign.

  • Skype Premium with Unlimited World

    I have a Skype Premium account with Unlimited World.
    I received an email like many others detailing the changes to Skype Premium, and that I would continue to receive my Unlimited World subscription.
    However since receiving that email, I have no Unlimited World subscription listed in my account, and I am not able to make calls.
    A chat with online support said they were aware of the issue and were rolling it out to users accounts in phases to prevent "server crashes and overloads".
    True or not?
    I am also due to be billed on my account for £7.46 on December 25th, but apparently Skypes billing cycle is 8 months and I won't actually be changed anything.
    Again, true or not?

    Same here.  I was paying/subscribing an unlimited country previously.  I received the free upgrade to Unlimited World as well.  But right now, I can't even make phone calls to the numbers in my previous unlimited country.  I got 'insufficient credit'.  message.
    This is what I get when I checked my Purchase History...
    Anybody knows what I should do?
    And, is there a way to 'talk' to Skype support via online?
    Thanks.....

  • Skype premium with unlimited world account but cal...

    I've been subscribed to Skype premium with unlimited world for a long time now, then just got an email a few days ago, saying I got a free upgrade, and now I can't make any calls - tells me I have to 'buy credit' every time I try making any call I used to make included in my package... What happened?? I'm very frustrated.

    I am Premium subscriber and received the email saying free world access but when I try to ring Italy it asks for a payment.  Do I have to activate something?  Any help would be appreciated

    Toggle iMessage Off then On
    Turning iMessage off then on again worked for my particular issue. You can do this by following these steps:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Messages“
    Slide “iMessages” to off for about 3 minutes, then turn it back on.
    Your iPhone will be re-registered and may clear up the duplicate text message notification problem.
    Repeat Alerts Setting
    There is a setting that repeats notifications which could cause this issue. Check it with these steps:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Notification Center“.
    Choose “Messages“.
    Ensure that the “Repeat Alerts” setting is set to “Once“.
    Send & Receive Setting
    Another setting that involves sending notifications to multiple numbers could be the issue as well. Check the following:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Messages“.
    Choose “Send & Receive“.
    Ensure that only your phone number is listed in the “You can be reached by iMessage at” area. If you have an email address or anything else listed, it could cause duplicate text messages.

  • Upgradation issue 4.6C to 4.7 for Text Determiantion

    Hi All,
    We have a strange problem during upgradation from 4.6C to 4.7.
    All the Text ID,Access sequence,Text Procedure have been replicated to 4.7.
    The only assignment missing is Text Id in Text determination procedure.
    I know that this can be done manualy in the new system,but what can be the cause ?
    Is there any way we can rectify the problem via avoiding the manual work ?
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Amrish,
    There is a standard SAP program: SDTXT1AID. Start it, and the upper section you can find your incomplete parameters. Sign your relevant parameters (or all) and F8
