Exclamation AT&T Stops Pretending To Be The Network With The "Fewest Dropped Calls"

AT&T is no longer claiming to be the network with the "fewest dropped calls," according to a company insider. The assertion was widely panned as a lie:

Quote:
The ad campaign, which launched last March, was based on a Telephia report that actually noted AT&T Wireless (then Cingular) did not have the most reliable network in New York, Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles. A recent JD Power report gives that honor to T-Mobile in most markets. Similarly, a report from Consumer Reports placed Cingular/AT&T at the bottom of their rankings for reliability and satisfaction.AT&T will instead boast that they have: "more bars in more places."

And it took consumers and the BBB this long to figure that out....damn...

Quote:
Following a Better Business Bureau investigation into Cingular's (now AT&T's) "fewest dropped calls" ad campaign and a protracted legal fight with Sprint over the issue, AT&T is reportedly dropping its claim, according to an employee.

Turns out, the assertion was never really true, and was based on only a small part of a larger Telephia report.

AT&T: An alcoholic's dream. More Bars in More Places.

I'm glad they dropped that stupid slogan though...every time I watched those commercials I was just like "yeaaaah no, not true"

I am getting sick and tired of seeing the stupid airplane commercial saying "Your world is wireless. AT&T is wireless. More bars in more places. Cingular is now the new AT&T. AT&T, your world delivered." They play that thing like 3 times back to back in the morning and at night.

you may missed ABC played twice in a row during primetime, and I was washing dishes
when the first one played, I throw trash out
when I came back (it's about 15-20 secs), the TV played again
