AT&T used to give holidays as free airtime. But that changed when Cingular brought them.

AT&T bought Cingular. But otherwise my statement is still correct is it not?

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that night and weekends DO NOT include holidays.

The official answer...

QUESTION: Are holidays included in Nights and Weekends?

ANSWER: Holidays are not usually included in Nights and Weekends. Nights and Weekends are generally defined as "Nights" from 9 p.m. to 5:59 a.m., Monday through Thursday, and "Weekends" as 9 p.m. Friday night until 5:59 a.m. Monday morning, in the time zone from which the call was placed. Some calling plans may have a different definition of "Nights and Weekends", as detailed in your contract or Customer Service Summary.

Actually, AT&T Wireless was purchased by Cingular (a combination of SBC and Bellsouth) in the early 2000's. Then, AT&T purchased Cingular last year to create AT&T Mobility.

Your statement is right, but AT&T didn't buy Cingular.

Actually, AT&T Wireless was purchased by Cingular (a combination of SBC and Bellsouth) in the early 2000's. Then, AT&T purchased Cingular last year to create AT&T Mobility.

AT&T didn't buy Cingular per se. Cingular Wireless brought AT&T Wireless. While SBC brought AT&T. SBC owns Cingular Wireless so they chose to rebrand themselves as AT&T.

Formerly a joint venture between SBC Communications and BellSouth, Cingular Wireless soon acquired the old AT&T Wireless; SBC later acquired the original AT&T and rebranded as "the new AT&T". Cingular became wholly-owned by the new AT&T in December 2006 as a result of AT&T's acquisition of BellSouth.

The service is now branded as simply AT&T.
