Cingular is suing T-Mobile over its advertising claim that it has the fewest dropped calls. In the suit, filed Wednesday in Atlanta, Cingular says T-Mobile is violating false-advertising laws as an independent study of more than 300 markets, which include about eight in 10 U.S. residents, shows that Cingular had the fewest dropped calls. We have reports by AP and the Boston Globe.
In competitor and vendor news, The New York Times, Washington Post and Associated Press report that Sprint Nextel’s profit in the third quarter plunged 52 percent from the period a year ago, but that its efforts to turn around the company's cell phone business were starting to bear fruit. Its rivals Cingular and Verizon Wireless have been adding more customers.
In general news, Wireless Week reports that customers increasingly are influenced by the handset when selecting a wireless service, according to a J.D. Power and Associates study. The 2006 Wireless Retail Sales Satisfaction study finds that 19 percent of customers cite the type or brand of cell phone as a key factor during the initial process of selecting a wireless service, up from 11 percent in 2004.

Wow! Cingular is sueing everyone that even attempts to suggest they have fewer dropped calls, or more powerful network....
Wonder when they are going to go after Verizon?

Everyone can't claim the same thing... there needs to be a central body to test this stuff.
I guess it'll be left up to the courts to decide.

Cingular should pay more attention to Customer Care than suing another Cellphone company that treats their customers good. My wife has T-mobile and she has 100% less drama from them than I have to deal with Cingular.
