does cingular blacklist and greylist???

Does Cingular blacklist and greylist. I've been given mixed answers. If so what exactly happens to both the phone and sim card can the phone still be used with a valis sim card . What happens when you use a valid sim card and greylisted phone? What happens when you use a valid sim card and a black listed phone?

cingular will disable that sim card... so your account wont be billed... the phone can still be used with a different sim...

older technology phones (TDMA) did not have a sim... cingular would put the ESN of the phone on the lost / stolen list.... only the original owner could have it removed from said list

at present (afaik) only one country blacklists GSM devices... the UK...theier is 2 tiered where the SIM (ICCID) number and the device serial number (IMEI) are both put on a deny service file
