So, I'm guessing Cingular brand name isn't that great. However, I had good customer service with T-Mobile.

What you experienced was a technical glitch on their end, and it wasn't caused by the merger. I'm not saying they will never know, but they are certainly putting those millions to waste. Rest assured though that AT&T is doing its part to inform customers. It's painful to see a perfectly good brand name disappear.

Because I said "since the merging with Bell South" I was a Cingular/AT&T customer and when Cingular was merging with AT&T I had a hard time paying my bills electronically. Even calling customer service was not giving me any solutions. Customer service was saying that they had problems with their computers. So I'm saying that out of experience. You said "The only problem with renaming Cingular to AT&T is wasting all those millions/billions they invested into building a brand. A ton of consumers don’t follow up on news and they are never going to know what happened to Cingular." You're right, it will cost millions but when Cingular customers call for customer service by dialing 611 and when the operator say "Welcome to AT&T", then what? Obviously Cingular customers will know that something has changed. I already mentioned that “AT&T and Bellsouth have already merged”. Because I said “since the merging with Bell South”

AT&T already acquired Cingular's assets when they bought out BellSouth. Since Cingular was a joint venture between AT&T and Bellsouth, they in reality acquired two companies (one for 100% stake and the other for 40-60% stake). 2. AT&T and Bellsouth have already merged. 3. Customers are never going to have problems with their services because of a merger. 4.
