Wirefly.com

Hi, I'm new to the Cell phone market.

I was checking on some phones today here on Cnet, and found a Blackberry that I really like. It's the new one, I forget the model #.

Anyways, it's like a $200 phone, but there's a site called Wirefly.com that offers it for free with a 2 year plan. However, if you check the fine print, there's something about how you aren't really dealing with Cingular, it's some smaller client or something like that. It's part of Cingular, it's just not like the head of Cingular or something like that- I don't know- I'm unclear. Which is why I'm here, wondering if anyone here has dealt with this site. Help!

Don't do it !! If you read some other posts on this site you will learn why. Wirefly is merely an authorized agent who can sell Cingular phones and service. They are not part of Cingular.

You're not dealing with Cingular

From my experience you're dealing with crooks that are out to defraud you.
