I bet he was referencing a specific tower and not the market in general or he is an idiot. I give it 50-50 odds

I should have been more specific. He may have meant no active work being done at that time on the tower.

Two questions...

 

Why even ask a low level Sprint employee a question about Network Vision when we have far more accurate info here?

 

And why bother posting the employee's response when you know it is wrong?

Sprint chat personnel in my experience are at best "challenged" in their knowledge generally; Sprint would be better served in either 1) improving the knowledge level of these folk or 2) dropping the service altogether; IMHO, they give Sprint a black eye

Because I'm not that experienced and just making sure I was right.

I would wager that employee is incompetent. Sprint employees should be able to see what kind of deployment is going on through the GLANCE system they have access to.

Definitely. And if they know how to read and decipher basic info, it would be glaringly obvious that not only is Network Vision is underway in the entire Ft. Wayne/South Bend market, bit most sites have received at least one upgrade.

LOL. I'm solid but thank you. I did my time in the customer service industry.

 

Yeah, I remember this from college, "Thank you for calling Reno Air Quick Escapes Vacations, this is Robert speaking, where can I send you on vacation today?"

 

When we started flights to Vancouver BC, we had a sudden influx of calls from Canadian Asians. Most of our employees couldn't understand them, but I could. So people would send them to me. My call queue was always extremely high.

 

Thankfully I was promoted out of that department into a non customer service role.

Upon graduation or turning 18, one should have to choose which service they want to enter: military or customer. Either one will chew you up into a different person.

Quite frankly; and not bc of my backgroud, but they should all serve a few years and quit complaining about what they dont have... grow a pair... and some damn respect for those who came before them.

To clarify, All maps here are based on leaked or unconfirmed information (depending on the area and map you are looking at. Sprint's internal Network Even Board that the reps look at, only show NV updates that are expected to take extended time. Upgrades that are on track and can be finished entirely within a small period and with minimal interruption of service are not posted in there. In addition, the NEB only shows currently open tickets, and historical tickets closed within the last 14 days.

 

Also keep in mind just about any corporate company you call, you're not talking to an employee of that company. You're talking to someone that works for a company contracted to operate the call centers for that company. AFNI, Convergys, etc. They're paid close to minimum wage, and deal with people yelling at them all day for nothing they've done. Most have very basic training because turnover in the industry is astronomical (6 months is a long time). Most will just read the script because they don't know what to do otherwise, and if your issue doesn't fit the script, you're screwed. Source: I have many friends that work in call centers for various companies.

I can only imagine the tickets for 4th St @ Laurel in Baton Rouge looks like on that system with all the tickets bigzeto and I have opened on that thing over the years, not to mention recently that one EVDO channel has been broken since November. Or maybe they have just been playing us and not opening tickets on it ;)

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
