Speaking of BB... can you guys come out with a phone that works? My bold 9000 has been replaced 4 times since January!! Neither of which is becuase of it being dropped or water damage.

I'm sure the other 40 million subscribers we have are experiencing the same issue.

"make a phone that works"

lol, good one. you might want to ask your carrier why they keep giving you refurbished phones that don't work.

Stocks are manipulated by people trying to make money.

Our numbers always go up, but if they don't meet some dudes expectations, the stock goes for a crash.

It's funny because here's a little fact that no one realizes: BlackBerrys started selling approx. 10 years ago. In those 10 years, we have shipped 100 million devices. What's impressive about that is more than 50% of those 100 million were in the last 18 months alone.

I wouldn't base a company's performance on their current stock price.

There phones are just naturally ****. Every since they decided to make them in Mexico they don't care anymore about Quality.

Do yourself a favor. Pick up an Iphone. HTC and BB are ****. My Sony X10 is good but has fug all in apps and features.

So what. This company will easily be matched and overtaken as technology progresses. As well as the continuous mistakes made by this company.

The quality, customer service, and troubleshooting of these phones is equivalent to that of a pile of elephant dung baking in the sun. The moment another phone begins to build it's name in the Corporate industry BB is over.

I see that coming to Nokia. Considering after 1 year these phones still work like the day it was bought.

I asked Rogers that today actually... after waiting on hold for 30 mintues to speak with a supervisor. Once getting the supervisor I was told, the ever so famous line, sorry I just can't help you.

Did you speak to Customer Retention? I got a free BB from blasting at a Manager in this department. Their the only ones capable of doing anything.

Call, explain your upset, ask nicely the first time, if they say no tell them you want to cancel your account.

I don't really like arguing with people... they told me they are sending me a new phone, not a refurbished one this time. If I get it and in a week I start having the same problem again (which I am assuming I will) I am going to speak with Customer Retention... I dunno :noidea:

well, we sell to the carrier right...so what Rogers does with you after that has nothing to do with RIM really.

#1 do you know what you're talking about or where our plants are? Doubt it

#2 apparently you're not aware of all the iPhone 4 issues that the entire internet is talking about?

Oh, ok. And how long has Nokia existed?

Care to explain to me why the largest phone maker in the world hasn't already done this?

Simple answer: no one currently has anything that can come close to our corporate offering. There's more to it than just the phone itself and the stupid apps you can load on it. We have one of the world's largest private networks running every BB world wide.

what customer service and troubleshooting? What does troubleshooting with your carrier have to do with RIM and how exactly do you take that and reflect it on RIM?

I seriously doubt you have a support contract with us for your personal BlackBerry.

i guess elephant dung baking in the sun is responsible for 5 million net new subscribers last quarter and a 43% increase over the same quarter last year.

i should really find me some elephant dung baking in the sun

Your Head office along with many other corporate relations offices are located in Waterloo. As is your R&D. But if you read the back of your Blackberry from Rogers (Supplied from RIM) they read MADE IN MEXICO. Which includes models but not limited to 9700, 9000, 8900, 8520 etc.

I did not say pick up the Iphone 4. I said pick up an Iphone. I had ZERO issues with my 3g 8gig compared to the MANY problems I've had with 8310 and 9000.

Yet there has been several cases instances with massive email deletion, loss of transfered data. Didn't you have an episode of this several months ago that resulted in worldwide business loss of 1 billion? (I'll dig up the article if I find myself with time that can be wasted)

I have several IT guys who contest to the **** quality and service of RIM

Even the pet rock sold millions. Doesn't mean RIM's current tide of success is everlasting.

I hope you don't take these arguments/debates/mud slinging comments personally. I've just lost alot of money and time with this company. Rim and Rogers. Not to mention my personal dissatisfaction with how RIM takes no ownership to the crap that's sent to Rogers.

shlammed 05-Jul-2010 05:41 PM

First, I'll start by saying it's not people talking bad about RIM that bothers me, it's people talking too much about something they obviously don't know enough about (no offense).

As a RIM employee, I'm pretty sure I don't need a lecture about where are sites are/what their function is.

Secondly, we have teams dedicate to support companies with contracts. Would you prefer a call centre in India?

Third, yes we've had outages before, but to suggest they have anything to do with data loss is quite hilarious considering nothing is stored on any of our systems. You may want your IT friends to check their own exchange/BES setup for issues like that. Not to mention wirelessly activating the device would bring any lost data right back to the phone if configured properly. Hmmm?


Last, as far as our success not lastinf forever, I'm pretty sure I had this same argument thrown at me on here 3 years ago and maybe 3 years again before that when I started at RIM. What's changed other than us constantly selling more devices and stealing more market share? It took us 5 years to reach 1 million sunscribers and we now do 5 million per quarter. Sounds like we're in trouble. Not to mention half of those are now NON-BUSINESS users which you may have picked up on if you've ever read our quarterly reports.

My curve is great, especially considering it's free. (corporate) The storm on the other hand... maybe it was rushed to compete...

Personally, I would love to have small ass nokia I can shove in my pocket with my keys n **** not caring about what happens to it.. Apps are great and all, but holy **** balls batman, most of the time I just want to call someone..

Actually I would have one of those if i didn't get this free bb... oh well! now if only this thing perform sexual favours on command... then it would be seriously functionally!!

WTF do I have to know? I have had first hand experience PLUS hearing other stories of dissatisfied BB customers. Why do you keep pressing on these comments about subscribers? Clearly they all have these phones because corporations are paying for them. THEY GET A $600 PHONE FOR FREE. They are basic, no other real functionality besides receiving email and PINing.

For those who don't get them for free. They purchase them so they can feel important. Or apart of this BS social group called BBM (Which in no way tops msn or yahoo messenger etc).

I'm not going to continue with this as it's a waste of time. I've expressed my opinion (which I am entitled too. My experience is my own. You can't tell me otherwise) on this piece of plastic. Regardless of what any RIM-Nazi says. It's still a piece of obsolete paperweight and with them sending all manufacturing outside of Canada there is no reason to have brand loyalty as their giving away Canadian jobs. Which is something you have avoided answering.
