If I could give ZERO stars, I would. We received a bill for $5,000 for long distances charges we didn’t make. Spoke to a rep on 12/13 and they opened a case to have charges removed.

    Alex was absolutely fabulous. He was patient in helping with getting my new phone set up. After being told that I couldn’t purchase a phone outright in Rockport, TX, I drove 30 miles to Portland, Tx. Alex let me know it was possible and he walked me through every step in transferring from one phone to the other. Thank you, Alex!

    I upgraded my IPhone today at the North Greenbush NY store. Shamore was excellent, walking me through each step of the process including ways to lower my monthly bill, explanation of the different plans in terms of number of hotspots, insurance coverage, etc. She was professional, friendly, very knowledgeable and pleasure to work with. We engaged in conversation about many different topics while waiting for the new phone to complete set-up. She is a valuable employee who should be considered for promotional opportunities.

      Anthony was absolutely the BEST. If I could have given him 100s across the board, I would have. I have somewhat of a tumultuous history with AT&T. I was a very unhappy Verizon customer for years, but it was all I’d ever known. The only reason I switched to AT&T was because my (incredibly toxic) ex-boyfriend had multiple AT&T lines and internet service. Before we broke up, he convinced me it would be much cheaper to join his family plan than stay on my own Verizon plan. There was one catch: I still owed money on my Verizon phone, and Verizon wouldn’t let me switch until it was paid off. My ex promised he would pay off my remaining Verizon balance, and in return I would take over paying my monthly portion of the AT&T bill.

      Unfortunately, we broke up after I discovered he had secretly gained access to my Apple ID, signed into it on his iPad, and for months tracked my location while reading my texts, emails, and browser history throughout our two-year relationship. Once I moved out and got off his phone plan, I found out two things: first, having a single line with AT&T is significantly more expensive than being on a multi-line plan. Second—and even worse—he had never made a single payment toward my Verizon phone like he had promised. I suddenly found myself making two monthly phone payments: one to Verizon for the unpaid phone balance and one to AT&T for my current service.

      Needless to say, I wasn’t thrilled with my situation. Then I met Anthony. Anthony was patient, compassionate, and genuinely listened to what had happened. He never made me feel rushed or judged. He spent extra time walking me through my original issue step by step until I understood exactly what I needed to do. What impressed me even more was that, before I even had to bring up my next concern, he anticipated it and immediately started helping me with that too. I never had to remind him or repeat myself—he was already one step ahead.

      He also looked for ways to save me money. He let me know that enrolling in AutoPay would save me $10 every month, and he explained that I qualified for AT&T Home Internet for only $50 a month—almost half of the $95 a month I’m currently paying another provider. It was clear he genuinely wanted to help me improve my overall situation, not just complete a transaction.

      What meant the most, though, was how kind he was on a human level. After hearing what I’d been through, he reminded me that I was much better off on my own than with someone who treated me so poorly. That small act of kindness meant more than he probably realizes. I sat on hold feeling hopeless, stressed, and overwhelmed. However, I hung up feeling encouraged, genuinely optimistic. He gave me an overall sense of not just empowerment; but that I was capable. After the call was over I found myself saying to myself, "You know what, I'm stronger than I think. I can do this."

      Customer service like Anthony’s is incredibly rare these days. He didn’t just solve my phone's issues—he completely turned my day around. AT&T is incredibly lucky to have someone like him on their team, and I sincerely hope he’s recognized for the exceptional service he provides. Employees like Anthony are the reason customers stay loyal.

      I know you guys probably get a hundred of these a day, and to be honest, I’ve filled out dozens just like this for other companies. But I can’t help but feel the need to emphasize that this was unlike any of the other countless surveys I’ve completed. And I’d be willing to bet this stands out from the overwhelming volume of surveys you’ve received as well. I have a feeling I could have been anyone on the other end of that line, calling about any problem, and Anthony would have tackled their issues head-on with the same kindness, grace, patience, and genuine desire to help. That’s not something you can teach from a training manual. It’s simply who he is. In a world where so many customer service interactions feel AI automated and completely impersonal, Anthony reminded me that one person’s compassion can completely change someone else’s day. Mine certainly did.

      I hope this review reaches Anthony's direct supervisors, and, if it's possible, I'd really love it if this feedback could also be shown to Anthony. I really think he deserves to know how much of a rockstar he is at his job, but even more than that, I hope he knows just how much of a difference he's making in strangers' lives that are on the end of that line.

      Thanks for everything,

      Alex **

      Buyers beware! AT&T had a promotion providing a Visa/Mastercard to help offset transferring from another wireless phone service. We switched over our entire family and received an email for access to three $200 cash cards. We were give an option of physical cards or electronic. We chose electronic, what a huge mistake!! 2 out of the 3 gift cards were compromised. We went thru the number provided for customers service with the department the electronic cards originated. They opened an investigation, and at the end of the 8 weeks confirmed cards compromised and replacement cards would be issued. My wife and I spent a year with more that 20 calls with no resolution. We were told more than 6 times the replacement cards via email would be sent but they never were.

      We learned from this experience that AT&T has two departments, if we had requested the physical gift cards they could and would take care of it. However, a different department handles the electronic cards (called DASH) and they will not do anything to resolve. Spoke to AT&T customer service on multiple occasions who offered a $100 credit. Basically we cane out of this short $300- with no recourse or resolution and complete waste of time! Warning if you're getting an incentive never take the electronic card option, take only Physical cards. AT&T really does not care that this was their program and department.

      I agree with most of the bad comments here. Since getting their service we have been lied to by sales staff at COSTCO and then by the billing dept. We were told we would send in our old phones for the new FREE phones, this was a lie. Then we were told they had better service in our dead zone area where our home is, that was also a lie. We have to use WIFI everywhere we go to get or place calls. We have a tower just a mile from our house and we still have to use our WIFI. If we did not have WIFI we couldn't use our $1200 phones. We have called and called and called to customer service which I'm not sure why they call it that as there is NO SERVICE for customers. All you hear are excuses and they NEVER resolve any issues you are having, plus we had to pay full price for the FREE phones we have. My friend that recommended AT&T called to apologize and she also paid the bill off just to get away from them.

      I had one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with AT&T. I signed up after being promised a package for around $141 per month for two iPhones, two phone lines, and business internet. Instead, my bills were hundreds of dollars higher than what was promised. To make matters worse, my account was set up incorrectly. The verification codes were being sent to a phone number that wasn’t mine, so I couldn’t create my online account or access my billing. I contacted customer service multiple times and visited AT&T stores, but no one could fix the issue. Because of these account errors, my phone service was even suspended at one point, causing me to miss calls from customers and hurting my business.

      Later, another AT&T representative looked into my account and told me there were three different profiles associated with me, but they said they couldn’t fix it either. I paid far more than I should have, wasted countless hours trying to resolve the problem, and never received the support I expected. This has been the worst customer service experience I’ve had with any phone company. I cannot recommend AT&T based on my experience.

      I’ve been with AT&T for 33 years — all the way back to the old analog brick phones, through the mergers, rebrands, and everything in between. In all that time, I never complained once. That changed this month. I called AT&T to ask a simple question: Do they offer a senior discount in addition to the military discount I already had? What followed was the worst customer‑service experience I’ve ever had with any company. First, AT&T’s automated phone system is absolutely terrible. It fights you at every step and makes it nearly impossible to reach a real person.

      Then the real damage started: Agent #1 removed my military discount without permission and moved us to a plan we never asked for, increasing our monthly bill. Agent #2 made it worse and increased the bill again. Agent #3 said they “could see why the price went up,” then switched us to yet another plan — again without permission — raising the cost even more. Agent #4 finally listened. After I told him I didn’t want to hear about “other plans” or “ways to save,” he sent us to the Loyalty Department.

      The Loyalty rep immediately saw the mess the previous agents created, restored our original plan, reinstated the military discount, and fixed everything. But by then, the damage was done. While my wife was on the phone with Loyalty getting the account repaired, I was already at T‑Mobile signing us up for a better plan at a lower monthly cost. After 33 years, AT&T threw away our loyalty through incompetence, upselling, and careless handling of our account. I hope to never return to them again.

      If we could leave a 0 starts we would. An AT&T rep approached us in January offering low prices on mobile service and plans to finance new mobile phones. We specifically asked if we paid our phones off early & decided not to continue with them if there would be any penalties. Answer was no. We had been with Verizon for many years but the AT&T promo would reduce our monthly bill so we decided to try it. In May, after several months of poor cell service, we switched back to Verizon and paid off our AT&T phones. SURPRISE!!! There was an additional $867 charge for "breaking the promo terms of the switch", no one told us that the promo included a 36 month agreement or there would be a rescind of the deal that gave us a credit on our Verizon phones.

      This rescind resulted in the equivalent of a $867 penalty. They basically "fined us" for the "ending our service" with them before fulfilling a THREE YEAR TERM. (Must've been in the fine print). We would have never agreed to their equivalent of a three year contract and their tricky little promo was basically the equivalent. DON'T TRUST WHAT THEIR REPS TELL YOU!!! READ THE FINE PRINT!!! They are sneaky and the modern equivalent of snake oil salesmen.

Processing a payment without my permission is fraudulent.

      ATT does not care about their customers. I was told that I would get a full value credit for a phone trade it $1,100. Now I'm told I am only getting $500 because I'm not on the right phone plan. The rep never informed me of this or I would have changed my plan. Instead of a $5 monthly fee for the phone, it is now $36 am monthly. The difference of $600 is a lot for me. But ATT don't care they are bait and switching customers. The supervisor (Edith) said yes the rep put in for the full trade in credit but that means nothing based on the phone line. The phone was on mint condition. Edith said there is nothing they can do, I hear your frustration. That is not the word to be used.

      I stated to her, your rep put in for the full trade amount, never told me that I needed to be on a higher plan, because of being lied to, I am now financially responsible for something I did not agree and there is nothing that can be done, even if the documentation states it, you won't take responsibility for the deception of an employee? Edith replied that's correct. I have had billing issues with them for over 7 months, something said don't do it, but I did anyway. I don't understand how a company is able to get away with saying there is documentation and go against it. I have 4 lines of service with them and if they don't think that I have other options by going to a competitor, they are sadly mistaken.

      They for get that I as a customer contribute to their overall numbers and their pay checks all the way to the top. I am tried of ATTs ability to lie, cheat and overcharging without any accountability. I am done! I will be visiting their competitor so see what is needed to switch. The board and higher management should review their procedures, before other customers leave them for a better company. Sad thing is, no one cares, I wish it was a case that was worth fighting for and an attorney help me sue them.

      Worst phone carrier service ever. The salespeople are bottom feeders and will lie to your face in your own home. I had to switch to a different WiFi plan after a move. They sent a salesman along with the technician hooking up my WiFi. Funny since I never needed a technician to turn on my WiFi before. It was all for the sale. The salesman took my phone and said he could get me a family plan for less than what I was paying with Metro. I knew he was lying through his teeth and didn’t trust him in my gut, but went along with it anyways.

      First bill was a bit high due to activation fees. Ok, I understand that. The next bill was almost $500, so I called and canceled the service immediately. They are charging me for 5 lines, and activation fees. 2 of those lines never switched and were still active in my old carrier. Over $200 for services I never received. This is also a huge inconvenience as far as switching back to my old number after just switching numbers. And I’m paying over 3x for not even a month of service what I was paying before. I almost want to cancel my WiFi with them now too. And I won’t be paying that second bill of almost $500 at all. I will have them adjust the charges & they can put that on my credit for 7 years. Screw them.

      Trying to talk to someone about service and I keep either have to be on hold or a call back. Never get a call back. Done this several times. Truly disappointed. Always says high call volume. Think I need to switch service.

      Absolutely terrible customer service. Do not sign up for this wifi if you ever want to have them show up to set it up. They will not show up when they say they will and then tell you they can’t come for 2 days. The worst wifi.

      We signed up for AT&T fiber. The tech came out to install. He needed to come back. We called to schedule that and the rep. signed us up for another account. Now we have two accounts, one we have access to and another we do not. We cannot cancel one, because we don't the access code. We have spent hours trying to get this resolved. Funny thing is we own quite a bit of stock. We will be selling our stock. Terrible customer service.

      I cannot deal with this level of insult to me as a customer. I went into an actual brick & mortar store. I was told they cannot help me. My only option was to call the 800 number which I did this morning. Stayed on hold 54 minutes. Total phone call 102 minutes, at the end. Nothing was resolved. However my blood pressure is now through the roof.. I’m taking an extra blood pressure medicine now. Just to make sure I don’t have a high blood pressure stroke, but if I do have a stroke and die today… I certainly hope my family sues AT&T for the wrongful death that they have caused. After that phone call I then called Spectrum. I was on the phone for nine minutes. My issue was resolved.

      I then called DIRECTV and I was on the phone for seven minutes, my issue resolved.. All while speaking with people that speak clearly and articulate correctly. I cannot understand why a company the size of AT&T cannot provide Customer Service?!? I am not saying their CS has to be excellent or superior to others, just equal!!! Heck mediocre would be an improvement! There is no need to ever expect any better!!! I need to learn to live off the grid over find a phone and internet from somewhere that is not this bad! If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

      The worst company. I’ve been with AT&T for months and it’s been nothing but unprofessional from start to finish. My bill keeps getting jacked up with random charges that aren’t mine, and when I actually get a human in customer service, they act like they couldn’t care less. I called three times to fix a billing error — each rep gave me a different excuse, transferred me, or “accidentally” dropped the call. Nobody took responsibility. Meanwhile, they still expect me to pay the full amount, including charges I never agreed to. It feels like they’re stealing money and banking on customers giving up. Zero accountability, zero help, and zero respect for customers. I’m stuck paying for their mistakes. Do yourself a favor and avoid AT&T if you value your money and sanity.

      Went into the store to just update a changed credit card and the rep signed us up for a new plan supposedly to save us money. 55 and up plan with wireless internet for 108 a month total. Went and streamed movies on 8 devices at a time to check the signal. Seemed fine, after the 7 day trial period it became random service, sometimes having to reboot to get anything. Strike one. Shortly after they took 156 dollars from our checking account, which they said we needed to use to get the discount. With no explanation, and must have changed the password on our account so we could not see the bill. So we went into the store to resolve. The same rep fixed our account login and said he resolved it and the problem was the way it was bundled it did not show up correct on the bill. He called someone and then said the overcharge would be credited toward the next bill.

      A few weeks later we get another bill for 108 dollars and after looking at the account we now had access to, both of these bills were just for the phones, not even including wireless internet. After many hours on the phone, and in the store they would only agree to 40 dollar refund. Strike 2. Got another bill now in the mail with a late charge on the wireless router which happens to be a different account not connected to the checking account because maybe when we set it up we used the another phone # on the plan.

      Today we decided to get away from ATT at any cost and go to another carrier and cannot. So far, today we now found out our phones are locked to ATT which they were unlocked phones when we bought them, After many more hours on the phone being hung up on, and promises of returned calls witch don't always happen, they insist that they are not locked to ATT and don't know why. They put in a case and will get back to us in a week. When we go on the ATT website, to unlock them it says we have to be in our account for 60 days. Also ATT website it says that deals on the billing may take 2-3 months to show up on your bill. So now after studying the bill the first 156 dollars was for a total of 3 days service. This is not over yet after probably 15 hours trying to resolve this. Incompetent liars and thieves, RUN AWAY FROM ATT!

      AT&T Location: 1501 S. Colorado Blvd. Denver CO. Brought a prepaid AT&T sim card. The technician at AT&T store placed it in a phone that was not an AT&T phone. The phone was locked and could not be used. Manager said no refund was available. This happens within an hour of purchase. Customer paid for service, that they did not receive. Manager said the customer was wasting his time and could not come back to his store.

      Wish I can give it a 0. I'm tired of them not resolving the issues. Unreliable service, dropped calls, poor voice quality. No ownership of lack of help, blind transferring no account adjustment after over a month of problems.. They offered $10 credit.

      I switched to AT&T based on promises that my monthly bill would be much lower than it actually was and that I would receive promotional “free” phones. Instead, my bills were hundreds of dollars higher than what I was quoted, with one bill reaching nearly $600. It took months of complaints before AT&T made only partial corrections, and my account still does not reflect what I was originally promised.

      Most recently, I had an approved payment arrangement requiring a payment of $330 by July 9, 2026. Despite that agreement, AT&T disconnected my wireless service on the very day the payment was due. When I called, the first representatives confirmed they could see my payment arrangement. Later that same day, other representatives claimed I never had one, even after I offered to forward the confirmation email AT&T had sent me.

      I was then told to pay $375 to restore my service. I immediately paid with my debit card, and the money was withdrawn from my bank account. My service was still not restored. I was then told I had to pay an additional $81, which I also paid. Even after both payments, my service remained disconnected because I was told I had to wait for the payment to finish processing—even though the funds had already been debited from my account.

      Throughout the day I received contradictory information from multiple representatives. Some told me my service would be restored after payment, while others later denied anyone had ever made that promise. I requested that AT&T review the chat and call transcripts from that day because they would show the conflicting information I received, but no meaningful action was taken.

      Because of these ongoing issues, I have filed complaints with the FCC, the Better Business Bureau, the Georgia Consumer Protection Division, and the Federal Trade Commission. My experience has been frustrating, time-consuming, and unacceptable. I would strongly encourage anyone considering AT&T to carefully review all terms, save every document, and keep records of every interaction.

      My fiber internet has been out twice in the past two weeks for the entire day. And with NO notifications. And NO updates! I called them both times and they sent me a text with a link to follow the outage. HOW am I supposed to track it on the internet if I have NO internet. Both times the customer service rep had NO IDEA about any problem. Very frustrating.

      AT&T is the absolute worst company I’ve ever dealt with in just about any industry I can think of. I’m certain that they’re involved in large scale corrupt business practices because they’re protected by the red tape of arbitration. Every 10 years or so, I get roped back in by some deal on another form of service (I.e internet might be better, FirstNet can’t be too bad) and oh man, I end up so incredibly frustrated that I immediately regret any possible savings they promise. Typically it has to do with promotions, gift cards, rebate, discounts, that take months (!) to complete, process, or pay.

      Their grift is having no record of the promotion you’re talking about, referring you to another person or department whose job that is, and having you repeat the entire story over and over again. If that doesn’t frustrate and get you to give up, your call is inexplicably cut off, or more likely, you’re told they have notated the account and will fix very soon and just to wait a few more days/weeks. They can do this for months, and my belief is this is part of their business model. That 50% or more people just give up and drop the issue because they’re so frustrated or busy in life.

      I purchased a Choice Home Warranty policy and, the following day, I was contacted with an offer for AT&T Internet service, which I already had, as well as AT&T cellular service. An AT&T representative came to our home to discuss switching our cellular service. During our conversation, he initially indicated everything was fine. He later called me back with his manager, Keith **, on the line. Keith was very persuasive and assured me that switching to AT&T would be a great decision, so we agreed to make the change.

      The switch was completed on a Friday. However, when I returned to work on Monday, I discovered that the cellular service was not working properly and was not reliable enough for my needs. I immediately contacted Keith and informed him that I would be canceling the service and switching back that same day. Keith tried to convince me to stay by offering various incentives, but I declined because dependable service was my priority. I want my money back.

      Absolutely the most horrible customer service. They turned off my wife's service instead of transferring my mom's cell phone to a new phone. I call them to discuss the option of obtaining a signal booster because of very poor signal quality where I work and the rep kept telling me that there is a signal outage --- I was calling from cell phone and she knew it. They keep making up answers and say the same thing over and over again. I asked for a manager and I was refused a manager.
