Default Black Friday Stuff

If you're planning on taking advantage of the Black Friday sale here's some pointers:

1. Get there early. Some phones are on limited inventory and will sell out quickly. My store has 13 Tours for all 4 days. If any are available for Saturday I will be very surprised. It's not just Blackberry's--my store is sold out of Touch Pro 2s and will not have any for the sale.

2. We are not issuing rain checks if we run out of a particular phone. If you go to a store and they are out of the phone you want your best bet is to call Telesales or go to uscellular.com.

3. Existing customers must be eligible for new equipment to get the sale price. All customers become eligible when they reach the 18 month point of their contract. The exception is anyone who is upgrading to a smartphone. If they have reached the 12 month point of their contract they can get the sale price.

4. PLEASE do not get mad at the sales person if your phone is not in stock. The people in the store do not control inventory and are just as mad as you that some phones may not be available. Call 611 and let Customer Service know about your situation. They have the power to do things the people in the store do not.

5. Please be patient. There will likely be more customers in the stores than sales people. We will get to you as quickly as we can.

Good luck tomorrow!

Call USCC Telesales, 888-289-8722

Your phone will arrive in a few days, I understand this might be a little difficult to wait on hold since you're working so it should be noted that you can also do it online...and yes, that's what she said.

Got mine at the beginning of Nov. and had a buddy that upgraded and found out I could get credit. Went up there during the sale and they credited me $180 to my account. USCC keeps doing things like this I will never leave. EVDO or not.
