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.

    By far the worst customer service in the mobile phone industry. I don’t think there’s anything you can get from a person that would actually be followed through and not one big lie. It may look cheaper, but don’t do it. Trust me do not do it. You will regret it financially and emotionally.

    I have AT&T customer since 2017 and I have never had a problem AT&T’s cell service and coverage, and I have AT&T plan I have five phones on my service and I also have free HBO Max and that was grandfathered in because of the form plan I had for my iPhone. I had Verizon in the beginning and T-Mobile and there was areas of where I was driving that I lost cell service so I switched to AT&T and never lose cell service.

      All the support techs have been very helpful with my problem. I can't find my phone. I placed a text at 2:15 today and haven't been able to find it in my house. I am 78 yrs old and it is very difficult for me to do chats and try to explain my problem. I know this phone is in the house. I have not left the house today. My granddaughter said it was in the house she has me on her my find. I understand there is a way to do an alert call from my husband's phone. I am waiting for the call from a tech specialist to walk us through this procedure. Thank you for helping me with this problem. I just need to find my phone.

      The staff at the Oleander store in Wilmington, NC are not only the best but an example of courtesy that is unmatched in many businesses that deal directly with the public. Particular praise goes to Lynn, whose patience, dedication and overall commitment is in a word wonderful! And an amazing follow-up was executed by the supervisor Lena. I can't say enough about Miss Lynn. These extraordinary sales persons are to be commended in the highest order.

      If I could rate them a 0 I would! Been a customer for over 10 years!! Verizon may be more expensive, but, they are #1. They mistakenly suspended my services 3 times! Yes, they gave me a credit, but, I had no service for a week!! A week! The credit?! They waived the reconnection fee! I’m over and done with them! Oh! You can’t even call customer service from your phone!! If you don’t have another phone, you are screwed! Just horrible! They don’t about their customers!

      The customer service is horrible. I was on the phone with customer service for 3 hours, then the line says you have exceeded the amount of time and disconnected the call. I waited for the call back, knowing the rep has my phone number but nothing. Such ridiculous customer service. I will be cancelling the moment I get a chance.

      I have been a customer of AT&T for only a few months and have never in my lifetime (I am an octogenarian) seen or been associated with any company where the customer support is rude, lacking in knowledgeable, and for the most part totally absent, as is AT&T. Their products are equally as shameless. I am a retired accountant, computer programmer and program manager and have had hundreds, if not thousands, of clients. I recommend that you think long and hard before doing business with this company.

      Once you finally get a phone with this company, it took me over four hours, you will probably never ever get to speak to a customer service representative again in a normal lifetime. It appears that "in person" help is absent at AT&T. As pertains to internet…it is worse. While streaming, a caption appears on the screen that says “When your network is heavily congested, your video may not play smoothly.” Or, “are you still watching?” Or, “Too many streams.” Sometimes, these captions never disappear. You have to turn off the streaming unit (TV) and turn it back on again to regain viewing. Sometimes, that doesn’t work either.

      If AT&T is a “Fiber” network, as they advertise and sell their product, these captions would never appear. Thus, it is not a true “Fiber to home network.” When it uses the word “congested” that means your internet access is shared with as many as 120 other people in your neighborhood. True “fiber” networks do not get “congested.” Thus, when you buy AT&T internet in my neighborhood, you’re getting something very similar to dial-up of the century past.

      It is embarrassing to have friends over to watch a sports event on TV only to have these captions described above appear…and rarely disappear within a few minutes. Sometimes they never disappear. It is disappointing to be watching some important news event and have the program disappear. To close an ATT&T account and get another service provider, it takes three days or more. Monday: file request for transfer pin, Tuesday: wait. Wednesday: they tell you that you need to unlock the phone, another two-day wait. Finally, if you’re lucky, you can get a new telephone provider just short of a full work week. This process should take only a few minutes. My advice: stay away from AT&T.

      After so many years with ATT service I decided to switch with another company. Att is not a company that I can trust anymore. I went to a store and they offer me a free phone with a free line that I only need to pay taxes and 10 dollar fee. Without needing a line I decide to take it and give it to my son. Also they offer me a 44 dollar a month router internet to see if it works for me, if not I can return it, I also accept. Guess what, the router I received almost four weeks after because they delivered to the wrong address and when I received my bill they charge me 191 dollar for the free phone. I call customer service because I want to return the phone and they told me I can't because it was more than 14 days.

      This people at the Hamilton store in Trexlertown PA are scammed. They lied to the customer offering free phones and line just to make the sale and then when you receive the bill and call customer service they said that you only have 14 days to return it. This is very convenient for them of course the bill comes every 30 days. At the time that you received the bill your 14 days expire. Also this people they have in customer service don't help at all. They are part of the scam. After almost 20 years with this company am switching. This company is not trusted anymore. They play with the bills. Every bill you find a new charge that add something without the customer ask for. Employees at att are not transparent anymore is a scam. Maybe the company don't know the kind of employees they have at the store and also customer service.

      With my recent experience with At&t, I have discovered they have horrible customer service and are consistently increasing the bill with “fees” that are unexplained. I have never been so unpleased by a service carrier. I will be looking to switch services.
