    Cingular Wants To Yank Docs From Consumerist

    cingularbandit100.jpgHere is the note Cingular's legal counsel sent us to take down documents we posted. The items have info about how Cingular determines a customer's "long term value" or "LTV." This LTV is used to determine how many discounts they will give you to prevent you from cancelling your account.
