Article: Cingular Sued For DeceptionA lawsuit was filed last Thursday in the U.S. District Court in Seattle accusing Cingular of deception. The lawsuit claims that Cingular dismantled AT&T network and downgraded subscribers' service. As service deteriorated, former AT&T Wireless customers were left with three choices:
- Move to Cingular, which in some cases involved an $18 transfer fee.
- Pay an early-termination fee, usually $175, to cancel service before the AT&T contract expired.
- Stay on as an AT&T Wireless subscriber to fulfill the contract but receive poor service.
