I just checked my Cingular online account and the option to download
the monthly statement is no longer offered. They have a note saying
something to the effect that the PDF option is being discontinued in
favor of a formatted HTML option so Acrobat software does not have to
be installed. For me, I always save my monthly statements as PDFs since
it is an easy way to archive. I can understand the reasoning for adding
the HTML option but I do not agree with the rational for discontinuing
the PDF option. For &^&@% sake, it's 2005 and even the IRS requires you
to use Acrobat! Besides, if you are competent to setup online access,
you probably have enough wits to install Acrobat reader if on the odd
ball chance your PC didn't come with PDF support.
Looks like it's back to the paper statements. So much for trying to
save Cingular some postage & maybe even a tree!
PS: I know that they have a text (CSV) option and Excel (which I find
odd as well, what do you think the install base looks like for Excel
vs. the free Acrobat tool?).
