    Last year I had no phone service at home. Called customer service. Said they couldn't send anyone to check tower signal since I was only one in my area with problem. 5 called every day. Finally day 7 was told 4 others in my area reported same problem. They sent someone to check tower. Never got credit for the one week lost service I was promised. Year before CS told me I was using so little data I could save money by switching to a lower GB plan. I did. Bill went up 10 bucks! Just changed to T-Mobile.

    I called AT&T to plan my service while traveling. I got back to a bill $223 over what they quoted. Called for an adjustment to reflect what I was quoted and they offered $50 off my bill. I've got 5 lines two phones on installment and have been there for probably 20 years. They would not honor what I had been offered. I paid them off and am about to sign on with their competitor. They seemed to not care at all. Who am I but one of millions of customers?

    My daughter and I already had service with AT&T but went in corporate store to add another line. Her husband had a Galaxy S9+ and the rep told him if he ported his number and added that line to our account they would trade his phone for an IPhone 11. We did. Our bills were reflecting a charge for a new phone each month. Have called customer service so many times and think we had it resolved only for the next bill to have those same charges. We have been hung up on 2x and one of those was a manager. The last explanation we got was the promotion started the day after we were in the store. Well someone had to tell us about it. We did not know any of their future promotions.

    We are now stuck paying for this phone because their corporate store staff tell you anything to get a sale and the company does not care. They know we will eventually go away. They are charging us $700 for this phone and took our phone that we were still making payments on. Less than a year old. We were told it was free with new line, porting number, and trade in. AT&T this will never happen to this family again. Beware of what you are told in corporate stores.

    Went to local AT&T store to upgrade phones and add a line. Told by employee who was an area/district manager that if I added Direct TV and had direct billing my “total package” would be a certain price. Signed contract. Got nervous about price and called AT&T. Got the run around from the person talking to but he verified price. Did not realize DirecTV was not included in bill until got a call that TV being shut off unless paid bill with late fees. Called AT&T to be told that the price I was given was only for the phones, that the promotion price that I was told was a year was only for one month, that the price of DirecTV was more than when signed agreement, and that I had to call a request bills be combined.

    I am trying to find a way to get out of my ATT contract. They have the worst customer service in the cell phone industry. If you speak with a representative and they give you wrong information and are disconnected which seems to happen a lot when calling them do not think they will honor what their reps say because they will not. A representative can give you wrong information and you make plans accordingly however if they plans are not completed, the next rep nor the Managers will honor what their reps state and they will not pull tapes to review. I was told the tapes are only for quality and training not to determine if they have trained their reps properly and to confirm what they are telling customer. If you can find another cell phone company please do, try your cable company but stay away from ATT. They will not honor what they tell you.

    After filing multiple agency complaints, Lisa ** from AT&T Office of the President refuses to resolve or acknowledge my complaints. She has given generic responses and does not value me as a customer. Ms. ** has been rude and condescending to me on multiple occasions. She also refuses to let me speak with another person in her department or her manager. It’s truly indicative of AT&T’s poor customer service to have this type of representative handling complaints.

    At&t internet new line service is worse. When I buy the new line for my home internet. Whatever representative tell me about fees it’s not correct. When I called and said when I am buying the service at that time they told me there is no charge for installation. After installation they charged me so I called and they said there is charge. I notified this person I talked and said no charge when I am buying the service. There is no response and I need to pay. Then after only one month I use the internet and they send me two bills for 70$ each. This is ** service. Never buy please. When I told them you said you are doing recording whenever we talked with representatives and open. If I am wrong I will pay you double and their reply is sorry we can’t do. Ha ha ha ha the service is **.

    I have a family wireless plan with AT&T. I had disabled international calling on the phones as in the past we were unexpectedly hit by large bills because the kids accidentally dialed an international number. But I noticed large international call charges on phones with international calling disabled. I was told that if you start a WhatsApp international call on WiFi and the call switches over to to AT&T network because of poor WiFi connectivity then it gets charged as an international call on AT&T at $5/minute. I said that is absurd as I have explicitly disabled international dialing. They said they could not do anything about this. This is truly unethical practice and I (who on an average spends about $4000/year with AT&T) am very unhappy. I told the supervisor that I was pissed about this and will take my business elsewhere. I was told that they don’t care if I do. Absolutely pathetic!

    Not only is the product grossly overpriced but the service I feel is not as good as they claim it is for my coverage area. Dead zones and poor coverage in my area of central Minnesota. Not to mention the fact that every time I call in for customer support it seems like pulling teeth to get anything done and takes forever. Most recently I have found that the way they lock and unlock their devices to their network is almost criminal. Upon switching network providers for some, not even all, just a few of the lines I have for a business account one of the devices they had unlocked.... they didn't really unlock. They just said they did and never supplied me an unlock code, sent the approved email with a blank where the code was supposed to be.

    I have been on the phone hours in the past few days trying to resolve the issue and have been transferred countless times and and am so sick of re-reading account info to the next representative I talk to. It's driving me mad. Now they are telling me it could be two days before it's resolved. What a joke. If you are able to avoid AT&T do so!!!

    After being a loyal customer for 7 years I decided to switch service providers. When I started their no contract plan (I brought my own phone) they prorated my bill which I understand, however when canceling my plan with 22 days left on the prepaid service they tell me they don’t refund unused portion of the prepaid service. Note AT&T always charges for service a month in advance.

    My service was disrupted for my business during an agreed payment arrangement. The past due amount of payment was made. Service was disconnected and the full balance to include a reconnect fee is being charged to my account before my services are restored to my business. Regardless of payment agreement of difficult in meeting the balance of payment. I feel that I am being punished by applying a payment force to me in order to pay the complete balance plus restore fee just to continue my service. This is unjust to the everyday consumer and should be fixed to offer a payment option for me. Thank you.

    I switched to AT&T because they were offering a trade in promotion. I received my trade in envelopes and went to the Post Office to send the phones in the prepaid envelopes provided by AT&T. One of the items showed that it was delivered on the Post Office tracking site, but the other 2 showed in transit so on January 16th, I called AT&T to see if they had received my trade in devices.

    Roger, the employee I spoke with stated that they did in fact receive them, but they had not been processed yet. On January 27th, I received 3 separate letters from AT&T, each one stating that no phones were received. I called AT&T again and they said that no phones were received. I gave her the tracking number and she verified that the envelopes were received at the site through the USPS tracking website. She then called the escalation team and they said the IMEI numbers were never scanned in so they never received the phone even though the Post Office says they were delivered.

    Now, they have sent an escalation ticket, but refused to let me cancel my service without paying for the 3 phones. I told her I wanted my phones back and I would return their phones, but she said she wasn't sure where my phones were. Now, I have to wait 7-10 days for AT&T to investigate and in the meantime, I have to pay my $600 bill.

    Warning-- don't believe the hype about rewards cards, no activation fees, etc. They'll promise you anything to get you to switch and once that happens, your first bill reflects all sorts of charges that you certainly weren't expecting. If you're lucky, you'll call customer service and connect with a representative who knows that they work for a shady company, and they'll offer you some credits toward your account, but it won't compare to what you were promised in order to make the switch. I'm still waiting on reward cards from ten months ago.

    Not only did they not pay the final bill with my previous phone company as promised, but the remaining balance that I had with that company ended up being reported to the credit agencies, and my credit score took a hit. I had to pay the amount myself in order to have this negative collection removed from my report, and I'm still fighting AT&T ten months later in order to be compensated for their lies. Please allow my story to be a cautionary tale. This company is FOUL, and the service isn't that great either!!!

    It all started about 2 years ago when AT&T (They) stopped sending detailed accounting with my statements, without notice or asking for permission. I called and They said that I would receive the detail with the next statement, didn't happen. This happened numerous times and still no detailed accounting with my statements. Then later, I tried to pay a wireless bill by phone using the phone number on their wireless invoice, and it seemed to work, except later, I found out it was posted to my Directv account instead. I called Directv to try to resolve the problem, but they told me that they could not transfer the payment to wireless because of some "system error". A few months ago They stopped sending me paper statements, without notice and without permission.

    Today, I called to cancel my service with AT&T, and they would not prorate the charges, even though one of the phone numbers had been transferred elsewhere weeks ago. They didn't even bother to ask why I was leaving after 30 years. This all should tell you something about what AT&T thinks about their customers/customer service. I have switched over to ** because they are responsive on the phone, do what they say they will do, and their rates are far better than AT&T, and they are highly rated.

    We just switched our company from AT&T and never want to go back to dealing with there nightmares again. Customer service if offshore with English being a second language at best. Does anyone else think it strange a communications company would utilize a whole group of people that cannot communicate well to the general public? This is just indicative of the noncaring attitude of management at this organization. Call customer service sometime and watch just how long you wait on hold speaking to a machine that 9 times out of 10 cannot help you and then get transferred to a India to get marginal help.

    Yesterday I was transferred to (5) different people to get help with our business account. We only have 10 wireless phones with them and this may not be a lot for them in the scope of things. It's important for us to be treated fairly. I needed to upgrade all 10 phones and there were only going to charge me around $7000 for this upgrade. Today I called and waited on hold forever again. Finally transferred me to India and Gustav the customer service agent, was curt and impatient with me. I just cancelled my account. Went to GCI and they gave me 10 new iPhone 10's for free and my monthly service charge is less than what I was paying At&t. Why would I ever go back when they treat a 20 year customer so poorly.

    This used to be the best company but now it has gone to the dogs!! I called due to cable and internet issues, couldn’t get fixed over the phone so a tech comes out. I assume it’s fixed after he left. By the end of the night I had to call again. Same garbage...this is now the third time someone is coming out for the same problem.

    I've been an ATT customer for 50 years. But over the past few years poor customer service has prompted me to drop their internet service, landline service and two months ago, their mobile phone service. On the latter, I had a credit of over $80 that they never gave back to me. I called, chatted, messaged via FB and even tried emailing corporate execs, but never could get an answer. Finally, I complained to the BBB and was contacted by a rep with a heavy foreign accent who told me I would be receiving my refund in 6-8 weeks. Well, yesterday I got it---in the form of a Debit Mastercard! What in the world?!!! Not even VISA that I can use with most businesses. I had to go thru the trouble of going to a 3rd party website, registering with my personal information just to request a check to be mailed---which I should receive in about 2 more weeks. What happened to the great company. They are not even third-rate anymore. I will never go back.

    I went to their store - 911 Oak Tree Road South Plainfield NJ. The sales person gave me all false information to sell two mobile phones and an additional line. They mentioned I will be upgraded under BOGO (BUY ONE GET ONE) plan which will give me one phone free with purchase of another. Not only this they brought me down on my data stating as per plan I have to downgrade and buy an additional line. I did all that to get a surprise that I was actually sold 2 phones (not one) on full price and an expensive data plan. I reached out to the store multiple times and their behavior was rude and arrogant. Virtually -"Don't care after the sale".

    To my surprise even AT&T customer care had similar attitude. After spending almost 5 hours and multiple calls they offered a mere 200 dollar compensation for a USD 800 phone that I am paying apart from expensive data plan. I am not surprised seeing AT&T among the worst customer experience companies, especially after going through it personally. I experienced this after being with AT&T for more than 10 years. If they don't care loyalty for old customer imagine the plight of new ones who are evaluating them. NEVER TRY AT&T.

    In August 2019 I saw an online offer BOGO and ordered a new Samsung 10 on my line with an addition of a new line which will have a free phone of Samsung Galaxy 10e. This was a available only online. When I clicked BOGO link and ordered the above mentioned, the order went through with no warning or alert. I got the phone and used it for a month. The credit for free phone was credited. So I called the customer service. The rep said it would take 1 to 3 months. He said it was backlogged. I called back after 3 months. The rep said I did not have the unlimited data plan and that was a qualification. I did get details until I persistently called for few weeks. I escalated this (I think) to higher managers in customer service. Here is the problem and here how AT&T cheats on customers.

    1. AT&T should do the due diligence of checking my account and tell right away if I would qualify. They their Requirements and all my details. They did not do that. All I can tell them at the time of order is, if I am willing to take a new line, willing to take installment plan, etc.
    2. When I called customer service after a month they should have checked properly and told me the correct information. Instead they gave me a generic message of wait for 1 to 3 month. I had to wait with a hope. This is clearly not a good customer service of AT&T. Low valued AT&T service plays with customers' time and money.

    3. To get an idea of what AT&T think what had happened, I had to call persistently for 5 months, several calls and talking to customer service representative and explain the story over and over again.

    If AT&T could have done the due diligence and checked and let me know right away, I would have made a different decision. It is a cheap cheat business and very unethical business. I would not recommend AT&T to anyone and especially their online promotions is cheating system as it is now.

    I called to get my cave-man phone device upgraded in SEPTEMBER 2019 because it was completely dead. I was overseas at the time when I called. I asked to have it shipped to my home in the US. The REP. was friendly and helpful and it took less than 20 minutes. COME OCTOBER I had to call again because when I asked friends and family to check on my order, there was no package to be found. I called again and the REP. could not understand why it had not moved from the warehouse. He promised to put it on priority. I asked him what that meant and he stated "It will be shipped out the next day."

    COME NOVEMBER, I had to call again because the previous REP gave me a tracking # and I had been tracking it. It was still in the warehouse...in November and he promised me back in October. COME DECEMBER, I called. I got other people involved to call and check on my order and we kept getting the same answers "I don't know why it hasn't shipped. Try cancelling and re-ordering."

    Here we are in JANUARY. I am back in the States still with no phone from them. I walk into a retail location. They have no records or notes of why it was never shipped out. Again, more "I don't know." They cannot help me because they know nothing except that somewhere along the way, my line was cancelled. Yes, I stopped paying because I never got my phone. I tell them all what happened and they cannot help and suggest I talk with billing. I call billing and was on the phone for 1:43:55. At the end of that long conversation I was promised a new device with the total of that device balance being $0.00 because I had been given the run around for a simple upgrade.

    I asked him to put it in writing and email that to me. He sent me a copy of that email. I walk into another retail location and the REP scoffed at the potential of me walking out with a new phone for free. Literally, scoffed in my face. There were about (no joke) 7 REPS on the floor all looking at me with no help. I called billing again to confirm the email and she did and I put her on the line with one of the retail sales REP and he witnessed it. 2 hours later, literally, with the sales REPs sitting and watching, I walked out without my phone.

    I called billing again and they said that I could not get a phone for free. After being referred to every department, they all said the same thing "We cannot really do much about this." I was so confused. I ordered a simple upgrade, never received it. I was promised a new phone and then told I could not receive that either. It would have been different if they had not promised it BUT THEY did and then took that promise back. This was from SEPTEMBER-JANUARY. After many conversations, I had to leave the company which is sad because I had never had a problem with AT&T. So sad. What made it even worse is that AT&T told me that they cancelled my line in OCTOBER without any notifications of them doing so BECAUSE my address was a high-risk area. But AT&T has delivered there before. I will not give you permission to insult my intelligence. You are losing money.

    I am being billed for 3 I-Phone accounts (personal, business, First Net). After not qualifying for First Net (a 1st responders' offer), I simply set up my business account. I received a bill from First Net, believing that it would somehow be applied to my business account. On 2 occasions, I spoke with an AT&T Rep, both of who assured me that the money paid to First Net would be applied to my personal bill and not to worry. I even wrote AT&T a follow-up letter that went ignored. Well, today my personal cellphone was shut off for non-payment. I literally spend 3 hours at the AT&T store (serviced by competent gentlemen) who were equally frustrated as I in correcting this simple problem.

    Now pay attention to the rip-off: To get my phone turned back on, I was required to pay the monthly First Net bill for the service that I do not have to turn my cellphone back on. AT&T Mobility informed me that because I paid by check (a month ago!). This company ripped me off! Now I have to waste more time in writing letters that will surely be ignored and complaint letters to whatever authorities will intervene to protect me, a consumer!

    This is the most poorly run company I've ever dealt with. Every time we talk to them to fix a problem, either they tell us it's fixed and it's not, or they did fix it but they created a new one. The latest is a "ONE TIME" verification code, and every month... I have to "ONE TIME" verify that I am me. I have chatted with their agents, spoken on the phone to agents, been in their store to resolve this and guess what? Gotta "ONE TIME" verify my account every single time. If it was only up to me I would have dumped these code hacks a long time ago so I don't have to deal with a bunch of incompetent minimum wage flunkies telling me continually it's something I am doing.

    I been with ATT for 3 months now. I recently purchase 2 iPhone 8's and a Apple Watch 5 series. My apple watch was connected to one of the iPhone 8. I then bought a iPhone XR to go along with my account. I called ATT to sync the apple watch from the iPhone 8 to the iPhone XR because the phone told me to contact a representative. I called the representative gave him the apple watch IME number to sync to the iPhone XR so it could be on that phone now.

    I get my bill for the next month and the representative I spoke with had added another number which made it looked like I had two watches to my bill. I called att and talked to another representative and explained to her I was just getting my iphone watch synced to my new XR and there is a ghost number on here saying I had two watches. She said, "Ohh I do apologize. I will take care of that." And she said she was gonna give me a 35 dollar credit because of the charge for the double apple watches that they put on my account and it was gonna be on my next bill.

    My next bill roll around people and tell me why they took one of the numbers off my account for the apple watch that I was paying installments on. They gone say I deactivated that number and they charged me for the full price of the apple watch on my bill which was $449.00 on my account plus the bill. So y'all know that bill was well over 600.00. But keep in mind they still got the other ghost number on there charging me for that they was supposed to take off instead of the original watch number.

    So I called ATT again and I was really angry and frustrated by this time because I called att every month because it was something going on every month with this bill. I then asked then a question to the representative. I said, "How you gone charge me for two apple watches with the same IME number. You mean to tell me that Apple make duplicate watches with the same IME number on it. All I did was called to get my apple watch synced to my new XR. So why am I being charged for something that I don't have and you can't resolve this now for the mistake that they made."

    And then the representative looked and said, "Oh yeah it has the same IME number." I said, "so what's the problem." He gone say one of the apple watches been deactivated that's where the charge came from. I said, "HUH? I didn't cancel nothing. The only thing I did was called and told them to sync the damn apple watch to my new XR that's all." And I got to go through all these hoops. I spoke with a manager Mark and he told me today I gotta do another claim. I'm like if everybody see this in y'all system why hasn't anything happened. Keep in mind my apple. I suppose to be paying for installment.

    Tell me why the representative added another apple watch to the account with the same IME number and gone cancel the other watch and then gone tell me I have to pay for another watch. Which I don't have and they still charging me for the two apple watches with the same IME number the number on it. This has made me so frustrated my blood pressure up and now I'm waiting on Mark to call me back which he said he was gonna call me back in 30 minutes. I wrote the time down we spoke. It was 1206 and now it is 109. I'm in Memphis Tennessee. I am so frustrated my blood pressure up and they talking about ain't nothing they can do about this. This is a case of some real live pain and suffering here I can't. All because I called to get my only apple watch synced to my new XR.

    And this matter has not yet been resolved. Someone please help me on what can I do?

    I would also discourage anyone from using AT&T wireless (or DSL\Internet):

    - AT&T wireless users have gaps in their calls from our neighborhood.
    - Sprint and Verizon work great.
    - Several attempts were made to correct the problem--nothing has worked.
    - Remote areas of state, AT&T wireless and Hot Spot, frequently not work, Verizon was great.

    - AT&T Chat is worthless: After router "died", was told to be at home on a Saturday from 4-8:00 pm for technician--no one. Was then told to be home on Sunday at 9:00 am--no one showed up. AT&T Customer Service, "There was never a ticket created"..basically they lied.

    - DSL:

    * I have been waiting for three years to at least get U-Verse (fiber).
    * Ring device usually does not work, Direct TV--internet drops all the time.
    * Monthly cost doubled--was told by contact in Atlanta "you went over your threshold."

    * Loyalty group in San Diego (they are awesome!) said they lied--did not go over threshold.

    I will spare you all my issues with DirecTV some of which are related to having no internet most of the time.

    We ordered the box to our new home and the customer service reps reassured us it would come and it never did. It went to our old home and they refused to go get it. Then, once we had someone go pick it up they sent it right back to our old address. When we spoke to the customer service Reps they were rude and very misinforming. Once we finally got the box it didn’t have any of the cords to operate it. I don’t recommend them.

    Ordered an iPhone from the Londonderry, NH store to be shipped to the store for the data transfer. Ordered on 12/27/19. I called the following week for phone was supposed to be in by New Year's Day. It wasn't and the person I spoke to in store on the phone couldn't track it or help, they said I had to track it myself. I called later in the week and although phone wasn't in person at least tried to track it for me with no luck.

    On Tuesday 1/7/20 after calling the store and being told that I had to call corporate, I called... They transferred me to UPS for tracking. Mind you the phone was shipping to the store that couldn't help me. I drove to the store after work and of course no help, the employee really didn't even care if I cancelled. I was the only person in the store and I seemed to interrupt him from his movie he was watching. I then called corporate again and was told I couldn't cancel until they received the phone back. I still have no idea where the phone is and they probably don't know either. I've had a cellphone since 1992 and this is the worst service I have ever encountered.

    I had been an AT&T customer for years but decided to switch to another carrier for better rates. On Dec 23, 2019 I called AT&T to cancel the service and provide a prorated bill. After a very long conversation with the service rep and her supervisor they agreed to prorate my final bill to the actual days of service used (6 days) in the last billing period. I asked for confirmation or a reference number at that time and was told it was not necessary and the service would be prorated. I called AT&T today, Jan 11, 2020 to make the final payment as it was due on 1/13/2020. The agent said there was no prorated bill available and the full amount was expected. I explained to her what I was promised in my conversation on Dec 23, 2019 and she said she couldn't help with with the prorated amount.

    I asked to escalate and soon was given over to Josh the supervisor. He refused to provide the prorated bill in spite of the promise I was given on Dec 23. I asked to escalate to a higher level, he refused. I asked what other options I had to get what I was promised and he refused to provide any other recourse. He also implied unpaid bills would be reported to the credit bureau and hung up on me. I've never been treated so rudely. Over the years my family has spent thousands of dollars with this company. I will think long and hard about returning to a company that charges me for service I do not use and could care less if I'm satisfied.

    I made the mistake of switching from another provider after 2 years, no issues but a sudden price hike. AT&T canceled a hook-up delivery without any heads up. Wasted a day waiting for someone. Finally got service but as soon as the tech left it began dropping constantly. I work from home online. I can't have spotty service. Spent hours on the phone while techs tried to figure things out. I end up being told when this happens just unplug and plug back in. Not a fix. They finally sent a lineman out who said the neighborhood had been experiencing problems. The area "needed new equipment" that AT&T kept denying until now. So think about that. The company could not have cared less about its shoddy service in my neighborhood. That issue was finally fixed.

    Next - because I get paid once a month I changed my billing date. I end up paying for an extra pro-rate period because I changed the billing cycle by a couple days. No warning about that or any other superfluous charges. Been with them 2 months. NOT IMPRESSED. They are very shady. This is going to be a long year. Lesson - don't switch to AT&T if your current company simply raises their price. If there have been no issues, no extra charges for dealing with their mouth-breathing, grammar challenged reps, no service drops just pay the minor hike.

    I never experienced such poor service. Every day, my order either got cancelled (for no apparent reason and without my consent), or the install date got pushed back. Every time I call they say the issue will get resolved and it never does. I spent over an hour on the phone with them several times, however, it made absolutely no difference. I don't understand how a compony can operate this way and stay in business. By far the worst service I ever received from any company.

    Recently, we sought to add two new lines of service to our account. On the first day we called in, we were unable to make forward progress as they needed the account holder in order to add the line. Good security, we approve. We waited until we would have the main account holder around and called back this weekend. Steps were easy to go through, managed to get everything done. We were approved to add 2 lines to the phone, along with a free A10E (0$) and an S10E (5$/month.), with our total balance being promised to be $110/Month.

    This was a really good deal for us - the two lines being added were being billed at 80$/month with MetroPCS, and the main-line was being billed with AT&T at $83$/Month. Combining the three seems the obvious thing to do for $110, and saving over $50/month between the three of us. We received two phone numbers, and the promise of new phones and even a stronger data plan for the *main* user. All we had to do was go to att.com/tc. This is where our nightmare began.

    We were able to confirm & ship the first number. However, for some reason, the second number didn't work. We figured this was fine, and waited a few hours, trying again. When this failed to work and we found that the website wouldn't let us complete the order, we called ATT for support. Soon, we were reassured that they had two orders, and that there was nothing else we needed to do. We decided to check the Order Status on Sunday, and noticed that the second order # they had given us still wasn't pulling up - coincidentally for the same phone number that wasn't working.

    So, we called back to AT&T, and once more we wound up on Sale Department, speaking with Kevin. Kevin informed us that AT&T had messed up our order. They were only going to send us a SIM Card, a pretty far-cry disparity compared to what we had been promised. We asked and explained the situation to them, and they set about resolving it... And told us we'd have to pay a *Second* time on sales fees, and not only that - the promised $110 price, was now $135.

    We were sent to the Manager - Carlos, in Sales Department, **. Carlos said that they were being 'transparent' and that they would not do anything to rectify the situation. He made comments such as "Who is the one who works here?" when we asked for a manager above him - multiple times. Carlos did nothing to help us with our situation, and constantly blamed "Someone else quoted you wrong" rather than as a company and representative of AT&T taking responsibility for a mistake that had now costed us multiple hours of dealing with their company.

    We are disappointed in AT&T and Carlos for the huge inconvenience, lack of sincerity, and the overall lack of transparency provided by AT&T. Most companies would seek to rectify this sort of situation with their Customer, but Carlos simply stated that AT&T would do nothing to make amends by their customer that they had now not only charged twice - but also had completely messed up their order, AND given wrong pricing information on a plan that was agreed to.

    My husband and I were with AT&T for about a year. However, after much problems with their service, random charges to our account, and horrible customer service we decided to leave them. Before canceling our services with them we called to make sure that we won’t be charged for anything extra besides pay for the time we used their services. MONTHS after canceling with them we were charged over $120 for services we never used. We called and were transferred numerous times and after an hour of waiting they refunded us and gave us their word that our account is at a $0 balance.

    Another month goes by and we were yet again notified to pay them over $150 for canceling with them MONTHS ago. We called yet again to stop this non sense and after hour and a half of being transferred we were told there is nothing they can do and we have to pay them. We were told that the representative that said our account is at $0 “misinformed” us and we still have to pay. So, because THEIR company/employee lied to us we have to pay the consequences?

    I have never dealt with such rude customer service before. This company not only has the worst services (phone, cable, wifi) but also are simply money hungry.

    It's bad enough that they define a month as 30 days so every other month your payment is due a day earlier and a day earlier, but on top of that, they charge you the day before your payment is due. No less than four times, these issues alone have caused overdraft fees due to charging a day ahead. You go to log in to pay on the prepaid site and it logs you in on a Spanish page with no option to choose English. The customer service department is outsourced to India and often so crowded that it is difficult to hear the person speak because the background noise of all the people around them bleeds through. And to top it all off, this month, my direct deposit was declined because of a hold PayPal put on my prepaid card due to charges from so many states showing up (my husband and I live on the road as he is a semi driver).

    So even after getting the card hold straightened out with them, art would not let me use my card with hundreds of dollars on it to re-enroll in auto pay - according to customer service after an hour on the phone. See, the website /did/ let me do so but with my regular PayPal account just not with the card, complete with the advertised $10 discount, bringing the $75 to $65 - awesome, taken care of, right? You would think so when the site says you are paid up and nothing due until the next month, but even 8 full hours later it would not let me connect to the ATT network. Finally tired of waiting, I call customer service, where they tell me that yes, it took $65 dollars and yes it let me pay with paypal, but PayPal is not an authorized method for autopay. Funny, it let me do it the night before.

    So after an hour of hashing this out and trying to explain that the website clearly allowed it because why the hell would I have paid $10 less than my plan costs to renew it if it was not indeed due to it charging the plan fee but with autopay, I eventually ask to speak to a supervisor. They will have to call me back - not on the phone I clearly do not have service on of course. During the course of waiting the three hours it took, I go back to the att site and am told I need to pay them another $10. Oh good, so they can update that but not give me the rate I agreed to while making the payment. Eventually, I am called back and told not only do I need to pay the additional ten dollars, but I also need to call their customer payments department and jump through /more/ hoops to be allowed to use the card which has now been fixed, in order to clear /my name/.

    Weeping at this point, I bought another $10 card to pay the difference and keep from being left a thousand miles from home without a phone, but that is the last money they will ever get from me. In the next three weeks, I am going to transfer my service to Verizon. I was so infuriated I came here looking for a place to warn someone. You know your service is bad when your password is 'ihateatnt4life' on your att account. Do better, don't give these vultures your money. In the future, I won't be doing so either.

    I had been a customer of AT&T for over 25 years. I decided to switch to other plans during the past 8 years because the other companies had cheaper plans and I have not been fully employed since I became ill. I was told by AT&T that the phone was free. I asked if there's no contract because I was not employed and they said, "No." Being a senior citizen who was not employed I felt comfort in what they said. I called after the first bill to ask why I was being charged $20 extra in two separate bills and they told me taxes and I can't remember the second thing.

    The bill did level off on the third month. I'm billed on the 27th of the month so I took care to change my service, to a more affordable plan, on Dec. 21, 2019. Today, Jan. 3, 2020 I was charged $143.99 for the phone. I was told that I needed to keep the service for 30 months!!! I was never told that! That's a contract!

    Ditto the review by Louise of Newark, Illinois. I too was talked into a buy one get one free offer for an IPhone XR. Told it would take several billing cycles to see the credit. Three months later I was still being charged for both phones. Called customer service and was told I was not eligible as I did I not have an unlimited plan. The representative talked me into switching to unlimited and promised the charges for one phone would be back credited and credited going forward. The next month's bill was $96 more than previous and no credits, still being charged for both phones and lost my employer discount I had for 15 years.

    After an hour on the phone with customer service I was told they could not fix it and to return to the store that sold me the phones as they were the only ones that could take care of the issue. I met with the same sales rep that sold me “the deal” and she was quick to tell me after 60 days they can’t do anything, but she would research the account and get back to me IN A WEEK. What? She never even took the time to pull up my account. And why if it can’t be changed after 60 days do you ask us to wait two billing cycles to see the credit? Nice trick!

    Purchased an iPhone11 for my son for Christmas. Was told if I added another line to my service (even though I didn't need a new line since I was transferring his old line to his new phone) that I would get a $500 credit for the new phone purchase. My son accidentally locked his Apple ID account by logging in with the wrong password several times so we had to come back after Apple unlocked the account to transfer all pics, contacts etc to the new device and then turn in the old one. The salesperson saw the old phone and was aware of the trade in. When we returned in a few days, we were then told the old phone was not eligible (after we wiped the phone in the store) and were not getting the $500 credit and they could not remove the added line. I then got billed $117 for a line that I did not need, request or could use as it was not assigned to any device.

    I spent over an hour being transferred to 3 different areas to get the additional line cancelled and trying to get credit for the overage amount billed because the personnel at the Ellisville, MO AT&T store are incompetent. I was also directed to go back to that store to resolve this issue although the store made it clear they could not fix this.

    I am a At&T customer from 2014. During the month of 2019 I called AT&T loyalty department to check whether they have any loyalty deals going on. They said they have a $300 off for loyal customers on iPhone 11 Pro. I decided to order that and the loyalty executive started the ordering process. Below is the set of frustration which I went through.

    The loyalty executive said the order got stuck because there is a system issue and this happened on 11/28/2019. She asked me to call after 2 hrs and talk to someone else who can continue the order process. I called after 2 hrs and the loyalty executive told me that he cannot do anything because the order is stuck. It's an IT issue and i need to call after 30 days. I called on 12/27 which is after 1 month. They said they are able to release the order. They released the order. I kept the shipping address different from my billing address because i was at a different location for 2 weeks to spend my holiday. I got an email on 12/28 that the order got cancelled. Reason mentioned was that I didn't accept terms and condition which was not true. It was also mentioned that they tried to reach me couple of times which was also not true as I didn't receive any call.

    I called loyalty department and they said the actual reason for cancelling the order is not what is mentioned in the email. It's because I am trying to ship it to a different address than my billing address. Since I am at a different address than my billing address temporarily they asked me to go to the nearby att store and validate myself with a store person and make him call loyalty to confirm my identity. I spend money from my pocket and went to att store. They validated me and loyalty re processed the same order. This time they assured me shipping as it was mentioned in the notes that the identity is validated in the store.

    I got an email after one day that order is cancelled again and when I called loyalty department they had no clue why it happened. They said they cannot connect me to shipping as well as to the previous customer care executives who talked to me. They said the only thing they can do is to re process or I can leave the carrier. I was really stunned by their don't care attitude but after talking to them I understood that they are showing their helplessness. It's Att's problem as a whole and the management might have instructed the shipping department not to ship it out. They could have told me the truth why they are not shipping it out and why they wasted around 10-12 hrs of time talking to att.

    I was an ATT customer for over 10 years. I did not have to call customer service much. Thank goodness because is a long wait. But about 4 months ago I added a line to my family plan of 2 and I took the buy 1 get one free phone “promo”. About a month later I call them to tell them my new line was going to be used for a business and in order to get the answering services by grass hopper I needed a new number so that grass hopper could have my original number (grass hopper is not a competition). They just do the answering forwarding services. The guy in India or Philippines or wherever he was did not understand my request, so wrongfully he suggested for me to forward the line to grass hopper and get a new chip for my phone with a new number so that grass hopper could have the business number. He said that was the easiest way to do it.

    Well, next month I get a $900 bill and I immediately called them, they said I lost the promotion of the buy 1 get 1 free because I forwarded the line!!! I said... but I did not cancel the service! Besides it was an ATT employee who suggested that was the solution for my need!! Long story short I spent several days an hours of my time trying to get the issue corrected, spoke to multiple ignorant people that did not know how to fix it. Until I finally spoke to somebody with some sense and she helped me submitted the request to credit me back to the correct department but at the end they declined the request so I had to pay the phone in full despite the calls been recorded as proof it was their mistake!!! I am a T-Mobile customer now and paying almost half of what I was paying with ATT!! So far so good!

    I wanted to upgrade my existing iPhone 7 which was out of contract with AT&T Next program and I thought my best bet would be to upgrade the phone with AT&T itself as I'm an existing customer, so I stopped in at a store and the person at the store checked and reviewed everything in my account and confirmed that I'm eligible for a trade-in promotional offer of $300 and So I upgraded to iPhone 11 and shipped my old phone to AT&T by the first week of November, 2019.

    It's been almost 1.5 months and I never got a $300 credit and I reached out to AT&T toll free customer care and after spending almost 2 hours transferring my call through various departments they said, "We have received your phone but the tradein value is $0," and they advised me to go back to the same store where I initiated my trade in which I did and after again talking to the same person at the store, now he is saying that you need to have unlimited data plan in your account to be eligible for this promo which is ridiculous because he should have told me these details at the time of initiating my trade-in and this person at the store never revealed these clauses to me and now he is saying it's mentioned in the agreement letter!!!

    It's such a terrible experience and believe it or not AT&T's plans and services are going below average day after day!!! Please beware of these scams and give it another thought before going with AT&T especially since there are many options out there.

    My fiancée and I have been with AT&T for for over 4 years and have never seen such horrible customer service. We have been dealing with a billing issue that was an error on the company’s behalf. This error happen in late October as early November. I have spent over 10 hours speaking to people that say they are managers and supervisors. I talked to 7 different people the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and was told this issue was going to be resolve because it was their fault for a double reverse of payment on my family's account.

    Since November my fiancé has spent over 7-8 hours talking to customer service reps and has spoken to over 10 representatives. All of which saying they will set put a note in the account to relive the issue or have someone call in 3-5 business days to make sure it’s all fixed. On all occasions my fiancé and myself have called to get resolve and there’s been no one from ATT to even try to contact us. The first time they put in a request to fix they set up a payment plan when that’s was even the agreement so then when we called back in the next rep kept asking us to pay a balance of $480 that was already paid.

    We call back AGAIN after Thanksgiving and spoke to another so call manager to help get this double reversal of our att account so we would be current and then they shut our phones off saying we were suppose to be paying $480 which is a mistake with AT&T not my family. When we called to tell them we have switched services and now going to Verizon the manager on the phone said that they didn’t want us to do that so he was going to get everything fixed, waive the reconnection fee for our lines, have the balance adjusted and so we could have our lines back.

    We told them we were switching to Verizon and we had already got our new phones because we have kids and they need to be able to contact us and no longer wanted their service for cell phone nor cable and internet. It’s clear that with as big ATT is we are all just a number and It’s now almost 2020 and this is issue is still not resolve. If you wonder if you should use AT&T ... Do Not because if you don’t want to be just a number and not be held responsible for their accounting errors then I would high advise use someone else.

    After creating my AT&T Business Account I started to receive calls about every 2 minutes telling me that someone logged into my account. When I call support they tell me that its not ATT, so I change the phone number in my profile and sure enough it is not calling my new number every 2 minutes. I now have over a 100 messages from ATT. When I call into support from the Business side I cannot find a single live person. Their Automation system is broke, and needs to be put out of business there has to be a way to make these people accountable. I would be very embarrassed to be an ATT employ.

    I went to At&T after a sales person came to our home on a service call for DirecTV service. The AT&T rep ask my husband if we had cell phone service with AT&T. He told he did but I did not. She began to tell him that if I was to switch cell phone services our bill would only be $92.00 a month. When I came home from work my husband told about this what seemed to be to good to be true offer so I called the rep and meet with her. I asked her over and over if this was true that our bill together would be $92.00 a month she stated yes. Well a month later I got our bill and boy what a BIG FAT LIE this was. Our bill has been $176 to $ a month. I have call several times in regards to the rep and have received not one call back from any rep at AT&T. I am currently looking for a different service.

    I switched to AT&T everything was going great after a year of service. Then one day I met a man He paid my bill without my knowledge. I was notified by email my bill had been paid. I was stunned upon the delivery of the email, for the policy was no one could pay or have access to our bill with our presence or your code. I ask this man I met did you pay my phone bill? Said yes, I am that kind of man. For three months in a row, he pays my bill still without my permission or presence of code. Each time this alarmed me, and I called customer assistance asking them how this could have happened and if he was in my account. Each time they assured me he was not in my account and all was fine. I should be grateful my bill was paid!

    The fourth month came, and I received a new email stating someone had ordered a $1000 phone on my account. I called once again the customer service line. I ask them to explain to me who ordered this phone and how without my presence? they could not explain it to me! But it was ordered, and I was responsible for the phone. I went all the way to the top person arguing with them I had not ordered this phone! Who allowed this man to order this phone on my account without my permission or pay on my account when each month I had been calling and asking why and how? And each time they told me do not worry there is no way he can access your account. To date, this has not been resolved and each month AT&T bills me plus interest. This gave me and AT&T a fake name. And he was paying on my account with stolen credit cards. No, I am no longer with AT&T… Beware. They do not stand by their own policies…

    I Have been dealing with issues since October with my account. I purchased an Apple watch from AT&T with adding an additional line and paying monthly for the watch, under contract. When I received the watch I tried to number sync the watch with my phone. I got to a step that said there was no cellular data and I contacted customer support for help. They helped me into 4 additional lines for my watch, which I did not know had happened. I receive my bill for $996.00. I looked at my bill, saw 6 lines and 1 line had the full charge for the watch on it and all the other lines had activation fees and charges for my 1 watch. So I called customer support.

    They said that I canceled my line and set up new lines for watches and an iPhone 7. I was confused because I told them I only had 1 watch and I have never owned an iphone 7. They told me I canceled my contract and returned the watch and the full amount was charged because the watch was never returned to them. I informed them at that time I did not return anything or cancel any lines. SO they transferred me to the fraud department since someone had committed fraud on my account and added all the lines. I was so confused and I told the gentleman in the fraud department that I could file a claim for fraud but it would be against AT&T customer support because they made these errors.

    So after several days and many hours dealing with these issues. I had someone more patient than myself speak to AT&T so everything, I thought had been resolved. The contract reestablished the lines correct, then they walked me through number syncing my phone again and surprise surprise another line was added to my account. I was patient and was told that this would automatically fix itself that everything was set up correctly. So I waited until a new bill had come out. I had a past due balance of $28.00 and my bill was $751.00, in which again I had two lines for my watch and one line was the full balance of my watch along with the monthly installment charges for the watch on two different lines. So today I go to use my phone and my service has been shut off so I call to try and get some resolution to get my bill straightened out.

    This time AT&T tells me that once I pay the $28.00 past due balance my account will be straightened out and the credits will automatically show up on the account after the past-due bill is paid. I know the amount of the past due balance is not a lot, but after 3 months or issues with no resolution, it is the principle of it all. Then to tell me that paying the $28.00 fee is the only way that anything will be fixed on my account. I feel like they are requiring me to pay a small balance to then tell me they will only fix it if I pay that. That's not even accurate. I have a case that was escalated to try and resolve the issues with the incorrect charges to my account.

    During the midst of all this going on I physically walked into an AT&T store only to be told they could not help me but had to contact customer support since I was already dealing with them. But hey they printed my bill out for me to show me the charges...thanks that was helpful, I knew what the charges were. I Have never had issues like this and been with AT&T for about 5 years on this account and was with AT&T on a shared account for 20 years. I have never been treated so badly, feel like AT&T just wants their money and not really help the customers that have issues.

    We are a big family and have always for the past 4+ years used ATT Wireless, Directv, and ATT internet. So like 4 months ago our bills started to come really high because of supposedly long distance calls, this and that, but the funny thing is that we never called outside of U.S. and ATT would always apologize for this inconvenience and fix the bill issue, but it was constantly each month going through the same thing, worrying, stressful, and we decided it was best to split up the family plan, so 6 of the lines went on our separate way under my wife's name. At this time we had ATT internet at home for $50 dollars and we were told that if we combined the wireless 6 lines with our Internet plan, we would get a $20 dollar discount extra. Long story short, we did the combining and our first bill actually came $10 dollars higher.

    When we call they explained that we were getting a discount with the internet already and that discount was gone after combining the 2 things, so we lost the previous discount and had the $20 dollar discount for combining both services but we were actually paying now $10 extra instead of saving money. It makes no sense whatsoever. So it doesn't end there. Is so frustrating dealing with customer service, every-time someone in the Philippines or Off Shore picks up the line, and then no one can transfer you to the U.S. I spoke to a Philippine supervisor for answers and all he could tell me was the system is responsible for the rates and the changes. I asked to be transferred to a manager on the U.S and he could not do it because he told me the calls get re routed each time automatically.

    So I asked the supervisor one last questions which infuriated me even further, "What would happen if I put everything back separate so I can get my original internet discount and save the $10 dollars extra that I was being charged? Would I get that discount again back to paying $50 only?" And his answer was that by doing the change again I might not get any discount to the internet again, so there is a chance of actually paying higher for the internet without any discount if I went back to before.. So frustrating. Now I don't know what to do.

    There is no one that knows any answer to this. No manager in the U.S they can transfer me to. Is just a horrible experience. All they care is money and money. Customers go last, and since they are so big they really care less.. But I will be also complaining to the FCC and everywhere I can get my complaint, because companies like this should care more about clients than money. Without clients there is no money... Is a fraud!!!

I called at&t and let them know I never authorized an account or a port and they promptly shut down the account and said our mistake and you have no bill. 9 months later I have a bill from at&t that hit my collections even though I have never had service from them or a phone or anything.

    I called collections to find out why and the billing address at&t has isn't even mine or one I have ever been associated with so I never even received a bill or I would have called in way sooner before it went to collections. Now after hours of holds no one knows what to do. Finally got transferred to their collections department and they couldn't help remove it because they can't even find an account. Now my credit is taking a major hit over 48 dollars from a company I have never had service with and doesn't know how to fix it. This is very shameful of them!!

Then, I was waiting for the visa cards that never arrived. Each time I called them, they had a reason not to authorize the visa card. I eventually gave up on the visa cards. When I signed up with AT&T, our bill was 145 dollars a month. A month later, it was 185 and eventually, it jumped to 335 in the third month.

    So, if you lose your phone, or it is stolen, and you ask to have your password reset, AT&T customer service will refuse to do it. (I called twice, spoke to a manager, and used their chat service.) Customers are only able to receive a text for "security Purposes." Ironically, a thief can go online and reset an account password without any trouble! This is possible since they have your phone. Worse, you can validate ALL account information and they still will refuse to assist other than sending a reset text...only option is to go to an AT&T Store to have your password reset...what does a customer do if none are nearby!

    We switched from T-Mobile to AT&T in September due to AT&T having a slightly better deal on iPhone 11s. Part of this deal was a $300 visa gift card for ordering online. While placing the order, I contacted to customer care center for assistance in processing the order however I still selected and processed everything online. I even verified with the customer service representative that even though they were helping me, I would still be receiving the $300 gift card. After months of not receiving anything regarding the gift card, I contacted both customer care and the rewards center regarding the gift cards.

    Initially I was told that I would be receiving the gift card, but that I just needed to update the address on file. Then after calling back days later following the address update, I was told I wouldn’t be receiving the gift card because I had assistance from the customer care associate when placing the order. After speaking with a supervisor, they agreed that I should receive the gift card because two separate AT&T employees stated I would be receiving it. I thought things were finally resolved until out of the blue I got a call three hours later saying I wouldn’t be receiving the gift card despite being told by three employees that I would. As a veteran, it is extremely upsetting to see a company with no integrity that does not stand behind their word. We never had issues like this with T Mobile and I wish greatly that we never switched.

    We left AT&T and went with ** and it is saving us over $120 per month and that’s with adding another line. Today I called to ask a question about a charge on an old bill that I hadn’t noticed because one month we were charged more than the rest and the girl I talked to at first was so shockingly rude. I told her I wanted to see if I could find out what the charge was on last June’s statement and she kept repeating the charge I have due now (which is data for our iPad). I said I am aware of that charge... It is a recurring monthly charge that is paid automatically. So I kept asking about the charge from last June and she kept repeating my current charge to the point where she was actually yelling at me. She said I would have to ask my bank and I said that doesn’t make sense... My bank has nothing to do with it. Unreal.

    So at some point, when I persisted about the charge from June, maybe it finally clicked what I was asking? So finally she looked it up, put me hold, sent me to another department and I got disconnected. ???? So I called back again and asked the gentleman the same question. He asked for my code. I told him. He said the code was incorrect. ???? I said, "Well I just gave it to the girl I spoke with five minutes ago and she had no problem looking up my account." He insisted it didn’t work. So I asked to speak to a manager. He said it wouldn’t matter because they can’t verify my identity. So I said what do you want to know? My address, my SSN? So he asked if I knew my account number and I told him what it was and finally he told me why there was an extra charge that month. But had I not persisted, he would’ve just hung up and never bothered to help me.

    Both of them were short and rude and I felt they were unprofessional. I don’t know if they’re trained to do that or what? But we’ve had a terrible experience with them. This is just one instance. We’ve been through similar things with them before and it is one of the main reasons we started looking elsewhere. But that was the straw that broke the camel’s back. We are done with them for good.

Other surprise my phone doesn't have a insurance. The teller forget to cover my phone. This was a second hit. Then few days ago I want to upgrade my phone, spoken with one of the teller at ATT him directly my call to someone name John. This guy was nice. Him understanding everything and offer me $335 deductibles for my new phone. Only pay $95 for taxes.

    I get the iPhone 11 pro max, used for one week, having problems (take too much time to download any photo or video. Sending messages is a problem. I been receiving messages a day late). My frustration not finish yet!! Asking the teller if I can return the iphone and get a Samsung, also ask if At&t keeping the words from my 335 and applied for my phone, his response was NO. I have to pay the full amount, is aggravated, frustration and hunger. I paying $10,590 dollars for 30 months. I know is a big company and business is business, but why doesn't like to keep customers happy. I paying my other phones and moving to other company. Maybe the others understand the words appreciation, honesty. Note: still waiting for my old phone get unlock. At this moment no phone, not line. Thank AT&T. Great job!!! Making people miserable on Christmas.

    This is the worst company ever, their prices are too high, me and my husband switched over from Sprint. The worst decision ever, me and my husband came to this company with our own phones and were paying 200 dollars a month. Our first bill was 500 dollars, I wouldn't recommend anyone to come to this company, if you're okay with paying high prices and not getting good service then this would be the place for, they don't work with the customer like other companies do.

    After about 30 years or however Comcast has been around we finally considered changing to AT&T because they we're canceling our favorite channels and charging us more. We were so tired of Comcast. We still are and now are just going to stream. AT&T made us a great offer about a month ago. His supervisor was on the phone approving everything he said. I changed all my Comcast email accounts. Every account I had was under that email. Over 30 accounts YEARS...hours of work. AT&T came out today to make the change and had a totally different agreement than what we talked about.

    CRAZY, they always say, "We are recording this call for quality assurance" but could not pull up the call. They did an entire bait and switch and wasted hours of of time never mind couldn't even look into the customer service call we made the day we signed up. BAIT & SWITCH. BEWARE. What was supposed to be 5 TV set up's as well as what we agreed on for channels was 2 TV's and almost none of the channels. PISSED ...why do these companies get away with this. If we had already cancelled Comcast we would have been in a bad spot. NOW, we are done with them all....too many great things you can get so cheap by streaming!!!

    My name is Jason, and my family and I have been loyal customers for the past 15 years. We spend $500/month. Recently I purchased a Note10 and wanted to trade in my Note9. AT&T never sent me a return label to send back my Note9. They then proceeded to charge my account $500 for the phone. I do not want the phone and just want to trade it in. I spoke with a gentleman named Jeremiah **, customer loyalty. He instructed me to send back my phone and the $500 charge would be reimbursed, he was great by the way. I placed my perfect condition Note9 back in the original box and sent it back along with packing slip that was emailed to me from ATT.

    3 weeks later I receive the Note9 back in brown box with shipping bubble wrap, NO original box, at my address along with a letter. The letter stated that they could not accept my phone because it is out of the 2 week period. Because of this I will be taking all 7 phones, 1 watch, and 4 ipads, to another carrier, T-Mobile. I am very disappointed in AT&T and how they treat loyal customers of a decade and a half. They will not be receiving $60,000 from me and my family over the next 10 years of service. That will be given to another carrier.

    I have a Galaxy S9 thru AT&T. I have had nothing but issues with this company since I got this service just over a year ago, from billing, insurance, bundle (or not) to technical issues. Recently I suddenly was not receiving text or multimedia... Long story short I ended up assigning a free Google number to my device for certain people I was not getting messages from. Then, all of the sudden my husband and I can't reach each other or send anything.

    So... we visit an AT&T store today for resolution and the young lady was nice as could be until I said, "No, we will not be upgrading." She then replied, "I'm sorry I can't help with this issue, you'll have to set an appt with a tech." Alright, that's fine. However, my husband still had a question which he was asking as she hopped off her chair and showed us to the door. Needless to say... as soon as my device is paid for I will be going elsewhere for phone service. And that little tidbit is just the final draw. We were misled from the very beginning and NOTHING was as we agreed.

    I used to love being an AT&T customer but I recently experienced terrible service and was disappointed to learn that they care way more about their money than they do their customers. They've always prided themselves on "customer service and loyalty". Well, an international call mysteriously appeared on my bill for $600 and they refused to allow me to dispute it. Despite being told that the charge would be removed at the beginning of the month because "my bill had not generated", I was told to pay the $600. I've been a customer with them for about 8 years now.

    The most frustrating part about it, is that I've given them so much money monthly and they would only give me "2 weeks" to pay off my balance of $1,396. For the life of me, I don't understand why they think I would pay for a call that I did not make, which then would've still left me with a phone bill for almost $700. They have become the worst and no one wanted to help. I strongly advise against joining them and would tell people to leave if they can.

    December 4, 2020. Michigan City, IN. I went in wanting to be a new customer knowing I would need a new phone, only needing the number ported. I spent nearly 3 hours there as they attempted to use their computer program that kept freezing. They tried calling tech support for help but their phones using their system kept breaking up. After almost 3 hours and many promises, I was baited to switch to a more expensive phone instead of the advertised special. I finally gave up without expecting any service, left the store and drove a block over to Verizon. 15 minutes later, I walked out with a fully functional phone, better and cheaper service.

    I've been with ATT since '07, and am having the worst experience of my life. Ordered a new phone from ATT, they sent the wrong phone so I returned it. USPS delivered to ATT in mid-Oct but it is Dec and my refund is nowhere to be seen. I am continuously charged for the phone that I have returned and the reps have kept promising me to resolve them and provided a date, only for me to get a text to call back (spend another 1 h 30 on the phone explaining the situation and waiting for them to resolve/put in a case, etc.) right before the due date saying there is no resolution. Rinse and repeat for 2 months now. While ATT can't find the phone originally in their records despite the delivery confirmation from USPS (the return service they indicated, BTW), they have since found it but still refuse to refund me.

    My case is constantly on a 'final' mode but yet I don't see any money and even though the case is supposedly escalated, I have seen nothing of the sort that shows that ATT is either willing to a) give me my money back like they should lawfully and rightfully, b) doing anything to rectify or compensate me for this experience. They don't take any steps to help improve the experience for me to even follow-up because I have to give the same information over and over again, and they see the cases but the reps close them because they're incentivized by their scorecard to do so even though my situation is clearly not resolved.

    I am so disappointed and tired of this bureaucratic and selfish behavior by ATT where I am paying with not only my money, but also my time to rectify this mistake. One rep even had the gall to ask me to purchase another phone with ATT while I wait for this refund - as if I can trust ATT with any of my money after this?? I'm waiting for my refund before cancelling, but at this point, it looks like if I cancel my service, I'll get my refund, so I might just do that.

    I went to a local AT&T corporate store to trade in my business account of 8 numbers to at&t. The corporate sales agents convinced me to apply for business discount. It turned out to be a nightmare. For each line they need to call their fraud department which take one hour for each call. They don’t have a direct line to their fraud department so they have to wait a long time for someone to answer the call to active each line. It took me the whole day there to get approved for each line. The funny thing is when we finally called in for the last two lines, someone cancelled the whole order. The att local store manager called fraud department and they hang up on him. Yes they hang up on their own employees.

    So the local corporate manager and his employee spent the whole day just to help me one single customer and fraud department canceled the order without even explain anything. I end up have eight business lines ported out to at&t but can not be activated. The next day local manager called their fraud department and they said the order canceled because it did not pass business verification. But they can not explain why did they approve the first 6 lines. I told them I can show their local manager the original document from IRS and they said they could not take that. So no one knows how do they verify your business. Seems like it depends on however they like to do. If they rejected in the beginning, I don’t have to wait the whole day.

    What make it even worse, they canceled it but can not activate it. So I can not move the number back to my old carrier. I have 8 lines offline and nobody can provide any solution. Local manager want to talk to fraud department manager. He was told fraud department manager will call him back. Even the local manager laughed at this bs as he said they always said that and no one call them back. The fraud department supports doesn’t care. He transferred me to his “manager” answering machine. Of course no one called me back.

    This company is horrible. I feel sorry for their poor employees. Imagine you are working so hard for the whole day and only work on one customer but get no commission because the order was canceled for bs? As a customer, I spent 2 days at their store and all I get is all line offline and no one help me. Even though I can transfer back to my previous carrier, I am going to last all my discount.

Many hours later I was promised a low price for adding new lines with devices. All is great until I viewed my bill tonight 11/29/2019, calling customer loyalty and being disconnected multiple times over 4+ hours. I was told the recorded conversations and notes would be reviewed and action would be take for the misrepresentation of my call on 11/06, but unfortunately there is nothing that could be done for me. I tried explaining that I would not have agreed to the price if the agent would have been straight with me, I was told, "Sorry. The agent should not have told you the price," I asked to allow me to return the devices and let me out of the two year commitment, they said, "Sorry you had until 11/27/2019, it's 3 days past the date."

    I explained that I had been a customer since the 90's and asked where is the loyalty, then asked who can I contact, that could make a decision to give the price that was promised me or allow me to return the devices, since they are in perfect condition only 2 weeks and 3 days old. I was told, before being disconnected multiple times from different customer loyalty representatives, "Sorry. This is the last point of contact, but rest assured my supervisor is going to escalate all the notes on this conversation to the appropriate department to review the misrepresentation" I was given, but nothing more could be done for me. I was very calm and collected, trying to reason with the representatives, she offered to lower my bill by $10, if I agreed to reduce my usage plan to one gigabyte, (no thank you, only want what I was offered or let me out).

The last agent, I believe, was ridiculing me...he said he would give me a number that would be the last number I needed to call today, with regards to the problem. He gave me the general 800-331-0500 number. I told him I did not believe him, but would try it. I realized too late, that it was the original number I dialed an hour ago. Now I am on hold again.

    They wanted the account number, I gave them that. They wanted the IMEI number that was in settings, but I could not get it since my phone was locked. They don’t even know their own phones, because I took out the battery, and a teeny tiny IMEI number was printed on the back. I gave them that number, and they said they still could not unlock my phone. They said I was on contract, when I have been out of contract for years. The last guy, who I believe was mocking me...I couldn’t understand one word he was saying.

    Anyway, I am on hold, and I imagine I shall have to buy a new phone, from the new co., since I doubt I shall get help from this company, or their employees. I think they should train their agents much better. As for what the last agent is putting me through, what goes around, comes around. And I think it should never be so difficult to leave one company for better rates elsewhere. What they are doing should be illegal.

Neither of my two issues were solved, but I ended up bringing up my girlfriend's situation and how it has put a unnecessary strain on our time.

    AT&T is limiting number portability for customers. A number of AT&T practices are prohibiting transfer of numbers/service. First, they refused to stay on the line with Verizon and insisted I would have to personally initiate a call without a competitor on the line. Next, they insisted on a specific account number that is not on my bill before transferring the numbers (NOTE: DirecTV account, Foundation account, phone numbers, and Account number on current bill would not suffice). Finally, they required a web-based form to complete the unlock of current phones that were paid off but the form would not accept valid IMEI numbers. I'm told that I may have to wait until the end of the billing cycle for any changes despite all phones paid off and account in good standing.

The very next month a $7.55 "Internet Equipment Fee" was added to my bill. Over the course of the next few months I've wasted countless hours on support chat and on the phone with reps to review this activity and have been promised multiple times the charge would be removed permanently from my bill and should not have ever been added, but the fee keeps appearing after each month is never removed.

    I have multiple chat transcripts saved showing reps that clearly state the bill will revert back to before the fee was added. AT&T clearly has no issue continuously lying to its customers and wasting both parties time and effort to nickel and dime them on their bill. My next step will be to post this across every online media outlet I have access to encouraging other victims to file complaints as well. Also working with others with similar situations to take legal action against AT&T with all of our documented evidence to file a Deceptive Practices Act claim to compensate all of our time AT&T has wasted with it's false promises and lies.

    AT&T Internet in our area in the middle of the DFW Metroplex / Allen offers 25 MBPS, incapable of streaming. We had to switch to Comcast which offers 200 minimum MBPS. Comcast offered to bundle our TV service and cellular service as well. AT&T charged 147.47 for DT. Comcast for the same level of channel selections is 45.97. Besides being over three times more expensive for the TV service, AT&T is $34.00 more expensive for inferior Internet speed. Here's the kicker. AT&T will not prorate the charge for our usage VS non-usage and is charging almost a month (26 more) more for the service we're cancelling today. We've been with them for more time than I can remember and this is how we're treated. Truly shocking. Beyond belief. #gouged Tim & Cathy ** Allen, TX

    AT&T Wireless is in the business of doing fraudulent accounts and fraudulent billing while throttling your unlimited 4G Data Plan and giving you crap service and crap customer service. Customer Service agents are rude and disrespectful. In 2017 Oct AT&T opened a fraudulent wireless account in my name without my consent and sent me a bill of $2,600 and ruined my credit scores with 3 credit bureaus and then refused to send me any documents on that fraudulent account.

    Furthermore AT&T wireless have done fraudulent billing on my current wireless account, have me pay hundreds and thousands of dollars on service and a Samsung galaxy note 9 and I only get 1 bar of signal of service as my service is being throttled. Every month my bill changes 120.00 to 209.00 to $320.00 etc. This company should be sued.

    I was sold an unlimited wireless plan for $45/month. Of course, I assumed another $10 for various fees and taxes. When I got my bill that was the case but there's also a $35 "ACCESS FEE"... that I was not told about, is not listed anywhere on the website for that plan or on the transcript of the chat I used to sign up for it. It's a MONTHLY recurring charge in addition to the $45 + fees that customer service has now told me is needed "in order for that unlimited plan to work on your phone." So that cool $45/ month unlimited plan will ACTUALLY cost you $101.09. This is how AT&T does business. Extremely shady business dealings, AT&T. This is literally a scam.

Instead of trying to care for their customers they will have the audacity to say it isn't their problem they cant do anything about it and try to upsell you another 600 dollar product.

A tablet that was just replaced less than a year ago is bad. They say they cant replace it even though I pay insurance monthly for that reason. They offered a check to buy a new tablet that wouldn't cover a fraction of what a new tablet would cost. When I called and spoke with a manager at ATT they said they couldn't help and told me prices of buying a new one and when I explained how I was originally downgraded from my original tablet a Galaxy 3 to a Tab A then told they couldn't replace it.

    Horrible customer service, will tell you anything as long as it gets you off the phone. Always get a reference number or else the encounter may as well have never happened. Cancelled my account in August. In September I was charged $160 for not returning the equipment when I had literally received email confirmation of the receipt several weeks prior. I noticed the charge before it was taken from my account and called to ensure it would be removed. Was assured that it would be taken off. Lo and behold a week later they charge me the full amount. I spoke to 2 different agents that both assured me the refund would be sent to my card within 7 days. When that didn't happen I spoke to several other representatives who told me that they aren't able to refund directly to the account and could only send me a check in the mail.

    A month later I still haven't received anything so I call again and they tell me that they've sent a prepaid card of that amount to the address that I moved away from several months ago. They tell me once a prepaid card is authorized there's no way for them to cancel it, that I have to call another number and start over. I tell them I never authorized a prepaid card and the word prepaid was never once mentioned to me so I honestly don't know how they even did that. Called the other number and now have to wait another 10 days to get my refund. It's now November 16, over 3 months later.

    On September 23, 2019, while I was dealing with another Internet issue where they wouldn't bury the new cable they installed taking hours of my day, they appeased me via telephone by offering a 12 month contract with $30 off internet. Roughly 45 days later, they, without notice or communication, removed the promotion saying it was a mistake that was corrected. They still try to hold me under contract even though they breached their own contract. We are now taking steps to dispute their cancelation fees.

    Late that same September, I tried to upgrade my phone (current one was not working). The loyalty center told me over the phone that the upgrade was processed and the phone was shipped. It will arrive in 3-5 business days. Business day 4, I went online to check the status, but it hadn't shipped yet. Unbeknown to me, I had to accept the terms and conditions. Time was of the essence and not one of the 5-6 representatives could overnight the phone. My wife talked to one who tried a work around which required canceling the original order. We agreed, He then tried to use another family member's upgrade to try and process ours, stating that we still owed taxes on the phone. We said no, explicitly saying that they are not authorized to charge us, and I was leaving AT&T.

    The next day I ported out of AT&T. A few days later we received a phone from AT&T. The online reps couldn't tell us why and wouldn't come pick it up. We had to go to the AT&T store to ship it out. We got confirmation that they received the phone the very next day, Oct 8, 2019. We waited for the full priced charges to come off our account. A month later, the charges were still there, and now late fees. When we contacted them, they tried to make it out that we did something wrong can kept asking us if we actually returned the phone. Eventually, they opened a case, and we were able to get the phone charge, upgrade fee, and late fees taken off.

    I have been a cell phone customer service of AT&T for over 30 years. In fact, I have never had a cell phone through another company. I was so happy with AT&T that we were considering using their home security system services and renewing our newer DirectTV services with them. Their customer service used to be impeccable! I was happy to pay more for their services because it was just that good.

    They changed their payment practices earlier this year. I started receiving daily telephone calls from them to pay my bill when it was only 2 weeks past the due date! Too aggressive! I have excellent credit and don't know how many thousands and thousands of dollars I have spent for service over more than 30 years with family plans, iPads, hardware, etc. Additionally, this summer, a software change was made in their billing services. I was no longer able to view my monthly cell phone bill. I called their customer service team and was passed from person to person to person. I feel like I have been involved in a perpetual game of "customer hot potato". Told that my bill would be straightened out by the next billing cycle. Or within 72 hours. It was not! I couldn't view my bill to see when the bill was due or any of the details.

    I received monthly text messages threatening suspension of services within less than 30 days of the due date. I dealt with literally the worst customer service I have ever experienced! For the past almost 5 months, I have (literally) spent hours and hours on the phone each month, trying to get their software issue resolved so that I can see my monthly bill and pay it in a timely manner.

    Repeatedly, I have asked to speak with supervisors and been transferred to a peer billing agent (many who are new and having to work with their supervisors while I was on the phone to answer basic questions). The one supervisor that I did speak with was incredibly rude and wouldn't even let me talk (she kept talking over me). She told me that if I didn't pay my bill with her at that moment, that they wouldn't be able to resolve my billing issue (which felt like black mail.....all they cared about was getting my money from me) and then had the nerve to tell me that they were going to charge me $5.00 to process my payment over the phone. She told me that if I wanted to view my bill until this was resolved, I should just go to one of their stores! What? This was their billing issue, not mine.

    I don't usually raise my voice during customer service calls. I have been in customer service and understand how it feels to deal with rude customers and try to put myself in their shoes. I made an exception! I phoned a store manager and communicated with her repeatedly via email who didn't keep her commitments to me with updates on my issue. I had to keep following up with her and she was offended when I told her strongly that good will and trust in AT&T has been lost from my perspective. She told me to contact AT&T Loyalty, since she wasn't making me happy. I asked her how to do so and she didn't respond. The irony is that AT&T expects their customers to be responsive in paying bills on time and to phone and text messages that they send, but they don't feel that reasonable responsiveness should be expected of them!

    Literally, I spent five hours on the phone this week alone. I kept asking to speak with someone from AT&T Loyalty and kept getting transferred back to billing. I finally got connected to someone in the "loyalty" group and she said that she couldn't help me. She passed me on to someone else who told me right away that she couldn't help me, either, and gave me a number to call for another department! I spoke with a technical person who said that he would have his manager call me by the end of the day. That didn't happen. I called a few days later and got passed around and around and around again. Asked for a contact at the corporate office and was told that they don't have that information and even if they did, they wouldn't give it out. One person told me that I needed to take a drink of water because I sounded too upset. What???

    I was finally transferred to someone who assured me that I would be connected with a supervisor or manager. This person told me that he wasn't at his desk, he needed my number to call me back and he promised to call me within 3 minutes when he was back at his desk. He told me to stay off my line, answer the call immediately, and he would get right back to me. Didn't happen. Another broken commitment.

    To say that I am disgusted with AT&T is an understatement!!! Every time I call them, my blood pressure goes up. I asked many of the dozens of people I spoke with (no exaggeration) if they would blindly pay a monthly bill that they couldn't even view? How much MY time is worth as a customer, trying to get a problem resolved that is their issue, not mine? Where AT&T's loyalty is to their customers? I don't believe it exists.

    At this point, I believe that AT&T is only concerned about collecting money from their customers. That's it. The problem with that business model is that if relationships are not mutually-beneficial, they won't work. Dealing with them is literally a nightmare! I'm going to be shopping for other options. I will not do business with a company that is only concerned with making money and not with helping their customers with problems generated within their own organization. In my mind, AT&T is now providing customer service at a much lower quality than their competitors.

    The sad thing is that when my husband died a few years ago, I called them (crying) to disconnect his cell phone. I knew I would never hear his voice again. The customer service agent I spoke with kindly and compassionately told me that they would pay for his service for two months so that I could call and listen to his voice on his voicemail greeting. I was so moved and touched by that generosity that I told everyone I knew about it. Those days are clearly gone. So is my business with them.

I have had multiple dealings with them where they talked me into a "good deal" that would save me money only to find out that my overall bill went up X amount. This last time, the lady asked if I wanted to change to the new unlimited plan. It would save me about $6 a month. Of course I can't reverse it because the old plan was grandfathered. Also she wanted to back date it (a couple of days to the beginning of the billing cycle according to her). That was on 10/29. The billing cycle closed on 10/28. She back dated it to 9/29.

    And oh, by the way my bill went up $76 dollars for the month that had already passed. I chatted with them for over 2 hours trying to get this fixed. The supervisor said they couldn't do anything about it because the bill was valid. I guess it is OK to steal money from people. I will be looking for a new wireless service tomorrow.

When I called AT&T, I was rerouted to multiple groups, put on hold for 30 minutes a pop as everyone needed to "research" the situation.

    For some reason, no one was interested in looking at the email I received from AT&T confirming the plan I selected or the bills which clearly demonstrated 1) that I had paid for the monthly plan before the redundant day plan kicked in and 2) that I had 0 usage on the plan during the several week trip. The inability to apply basic logic to issue resolution is beyond frustrating.

    At&t is a criminal company that rips off American customer's tax paid money by using foreign agents in the Philippines and other Asian agents. They use deceptive information and misleading rewards. There is no way to get out of their contract if they cheat you. If you complain they never resolve your issue. People should start switching to other cellphone companies that are more reliable and not into deceptive advertisements until AT&T stops breaking the law.

    The FBI should investigate them because companies should not be above the law. The consumer protection agency should do their job and make sure this company cannot keep taking advantage of consumers. The justice minister is not even above the law, so AT&T should definitely not be above the law. Anybody that has been a victim of AT&T's deceptive advertisements should consider hiring a lawyer and filing a law suit because there is nothing to lose. AT&T has a lot of money.

I called for two weeks and got the run around on how the phone would be unlocked but it wasn’t. This phone was bought with cash outright and never on a payment plan and ATT continually told me they couldn’t unlock it. Then after my billing date and several angry phone calls latter amazingly the phone was unlocked using the same phone numbers and call centers that couldn’t do it previously. Then I got charged over $200 for the next months bill.

    I called them and tried to recoup my money and was told that since I had canceled after my billing date per the new billing rules, I agreed to I would not get my money back. Even though two of the three lines had been dropped prior to the billing date and the reason the third had not was because the company had held my privately-owned device hostage for the time frame where I wouldn’t have had to be billed.

    Now in October after having canceled my ATT U-verse internet service in July I get a collection notice for $100. I call ATT and inquired about this new charge.

    *condensed version* In June-July we were there getting a new phone for my husband which he knew what phone he wanted and it was just going to be a quick trip. We paid our phones off 2 months prior. As they were getting his phone, the guy goes, "Hey why don't you get one, right now the promo is BOGO free Samsungs." I was like no that's ok, I don't need one. I knew there was some sort of stipulation. All he said was a new line, basically I just had to get a new number. That's it. "Your bill will only go up 25-30 depending on which phone." I was comfortable with my 140 I currently had. I debated back and forth, even the lady was like, "Look it's the S10. Much bigger than what you have" blah blah.. So I got it and said all I had to do was change my number.

    Yep. Gave all the details, like you should see the free phone come off the bill.. so 25.00 off each month. Done. So now 4 months in and Every month I called this store stating I do not see a credit, they kept saying, "Oh you'll see it in 2-3 months," then "Oh 3-4 months.." and now they say they can't do anything. "We don't see that you were set up for that BOGO offer" blaahh blaah blaah. The lady Short, long blonde Hair, that helped me initially, was actually the manager, we didn't know that at the time. So she knew what he was doing when he submitted the contract. And now he doesn't even work there anymore. So DO NOT go to this store before you also get duped into a 900.00 phone!!!

    I turned in my Galaxy s9 and got the Note 10. I received a 349 dollar credit for my phone. I also got 2 iPhones that were under promotion for 10 bucks a month. My bill was 115.00 and jumped to 505 dollars with no explanation. I spoke to countless customer service reps hours of my time for them to find the error and attempt to fix it and every time the department they had to send it to to get the approval keeps denying the credit back to my account. I'm so furious with this mess of a plan. I wish I never upgraded. AT&T customer sucks. The upgrade sucks. It's no way my bill should have been 500 dollars and none cares enough to fix the problem.

    I called the ATT 1-800-331-0500. After 40 minutes calling them October 31, and another hour on the computer on their chat computer line to try and rectify the $157.65 bill for 28 hours of service. No one would help me. I was transferred 4 times and the Chat person also told me to call the above number (again) who would be able to help me. I saved the chats and phones were recorded. I spoke to Milton on October 31, for 40 minutes who assured my he canceled everything. The next day I received the $157.65 bill. I called again on November 1, and spoke to Estefania, who then transferred me to Laura, who then told me to call the above number to correct the bill. I then spoke to Courtney who said she was corporate and she would not give me a supervisors phone number and told be that I had to write a letter to a P.O. Box.

    I have been a good customer who consistently paid over $200.00 every month for over 10 years and no one would help me to adjust my bill to pay a fair amount. $157.65 for 1 line that was not canceled (they said) till 28 hours after my bill cycle came out. VERY UNFAIR - hours on the phone - I was transferred and given incorrect information. Please stay away from ATT. They do not help you. They do not care to even try and help a past excellent customer. I was told by Courtney that no one would be able to help me and that she had to pay money when she discontinued her insurance. She said all companies do not pro-rate bills. This is not true - My bill cycle started 28 hours before they finally cancelled everything. This is the worst company and a disgrace that no one will help me at least pay a fair amount for the 28 hours for (1) phone that was not disconnected. Worst customer service.

    Don't use AT&T whatever. Their tower range is on mobile! I have had four accounts and experienced the same at&t corrupt policies on them all! Home, office, mobile and now I'm trying to help my elderly mother with her bill to resolve an issue charges they continue to charge after cancelling my father's cell line who passed away! We have spent long frustrating periods on the phone with them and even went into an At&t store, they do not provide a confirmation # and then they do not take care of what you believe was resolved. Example: my father passed away in February and we cancelled his cell number but, nevertheless, charges each month on the bill.

    I'm now sitting on hold (going on over an hour) getting transferred to this and that department and when finally getting to the correct department the line cuts off and no call back. I'm now on my fifth attempted to get her cell activated after not paying the bill due to the month after month charges for my father's cell who has passed. I can't imagine the millions they make not providing a confirmation number for services cancelled. Also, from previous experiences they will cancel you and then double the charges saying you no longer have a "contract," then turn you into collection!!!!

We never came close to the 5gb and always had roll over data...then they came out with the 9gb plan and that same month we magically went over the 5gb for the first time ever. I called to see what was going on and they said we should switch to the 9gb shared plan and it would actually save us $20 since it's the new best plan. So i switch because who wouldnt if you're getting more for less.

    Every month after that my bill was $50 more than it was for the last year. I would call and complain and they would fix it promising me it wont happen again and my bill would reflect my promised amount. (Since i had screen shots of my conversation with the representative). Today again i had to call because my bill was 179 when it should be 140 and they told me they wont honor their promise that i have to either lose gb or pay more.

You read that right, TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN DOLLARS.

    AT&T wireless is dishonest, they are liars, they are fraud! I went to an AT&T wireless store and they told me if I transferred my three lines from my other service provider to them today they had a special where I would get free internet service and there was no activation or cancellation fee for the internet and I could leave any time I wanted because my phones were unlocked. On top of that I would receive a $100 credit card credit for switching.

    Long story short, they charged me $99 for internet activation fee. I tried to disputing with manager over the phone and they said there was nothing they can do because that is how they work, they charge $99 for all the internet activation and that I had been misinformed. I did not received the $100 credit card by mail as the rep at the store promised. I called to complain 5 months later and they told me it was too late. The card that I never received was expired and they can't reinstate it. On top of this I was having trouble with my internet being too slow even though they had promised 50 Mbps download speeds.

    Long story short, I decided to switch to another wireless provider and now they are saying that I have a contract for 1 year and I am only 6 months into it, so early cancellation fee is $180. I spoke to manager and there is nothing they can do to waive the fee. I told them I was told I could cancel my service at any time because I came with unlocked phones, but they said that my terms for the internet are for one year and $180 early cancellation fee. I asked see the signed contract where I agreed to these terms, but they don't have it. They say that the store should keep the hard copy in their files, that I should go check there, but I just remembered that I signed everything on a tablet, so there is no hard copy, but they won't waive my fee, if I continue with internet service it is $60 monthly.

    They are complete liars. What they say and what they do is completely opposite. If they don't get their act together they will go bankrupt because customers like me will never use them again in our lifetime. Unfortunately they will screw millions more before they go bankrupt. Don't trust AT&T wireless. They are dishonest. They are fraud.

    Sometime in spring, 2019, some equipment must have been affected by weather in our Chicago neighborhood, zip 60626. Mobile phone connectivity diminished greatly - to no more than one bar in our apartment, no matter which part of our unit. At the same time, wireless Uverse service, often tentative, became very much so. A technician (these people have come from time to time for the same reason and we always found the people of good quality) told us that he would tell management - again - about a flawed line to the west of our building. The technician was able to move the line (from a tree, I think) and, for a couple of days, we had dependable service. Then we began to lose connectivity multiple times per day, until all connectivity disappeared. This mean, in addition to losing Internet use, we lost the use of our home phone number.

    We live in a building with five other owners, so we asked them which service they use. A number of other owners had once been AT&T customers. Since receiving their answers, we have copied them and transferred to Verizon for mobile phone and home phone, and to Comcast for internet (with ten TV channels included in the service.).

    In sum, because we live toward the end of a Rogers Park neighborhood block abutting Lake Michigan, we think AT&T does not find it worthwhile to repair whatever is flawed. We now find Verizon lacking AT&T's call blocking feature but we do have dependable phone and internet service now. With AT&T, there were no calls and nothing to block, anyway.

    Like others here I was completely happy with AT&T in the past, but their customer service is no longer at the caliber it once was. You'll run around in circles with many people without any help to get your issue resolved. We've had Uverse and they wouldn't extend any promotion on it to bring it to a reasonable monthly amount then sold us DirecTV which at the time I kept telling them we did not like Dish when we had it. Well after the contract ended I left my service with AT&T for television and Internet.

    Recently I purchased a new phone for my husband and added a new line for my son, and was told it was a buy one get one promo. Unfortunately, that is the battle I'm waging with them now. The big kicker is they always tell you it'll take a couple of months to reflect on your bill, and it's impossible to reverse once a couple of months have passed. Needless to say I am very dissatisfied with AT&T, and as soon as I can clean up the mess they left me with these cell phones I will be switching carriers.

Four days into the trip I received a message about excess data usage...five days into the trip my data usage was blocked. Not at all what I was expecting.

Based on his check he stated that it appeared that any problem was an error on AT&T's part. The bill arrives - over $1,200!

    I'm going to shorten the story...Miguel and the staff at the store spent hours (I was at the store for over 4 hours trying to resolve the problem with their help) supporting my claim that the excess charges were AT&T's responsibility and needed to be adjusted accordingly.

The rep now says that they had a promotion for free accessories but that I cannot get the charger because the promotion went off a few days ago! The experiences with ATT are laughable if it weren't so frustrating. The last rep told me that they could not send a charger because he could not locate the product. This is a new phone and accessories are covered. I used to be a loyal customer but I am so very disappointed with this company. And fyi...do NOT even consider transferring internet service to them.

Also beware if you purchase a phone from them and try to return it, they will tell you it was not received even if you have the tracking information and it says delivered, they will jerk you around for a 800 phone and say it was not received because their warehouse is slow to record returns. They treat customers terribly.

    I've been with At&t for 15 years. Always paying no less than $275 a month for 3 lines. Been looking into switching to another company so I called (I'd rather have an old school root canal than call this company) spoke with “Luis” in the (lack of) “loyalty” dept- at first it was all “omg dont go, let me help you”. I said “ok maybe”, presenting one of my issues to him, he did the work and looked it up (resolved nothing). Then said “well, seeing as you want to cancel, pay $938 then you can go”. How quickly it went from “let me help you” to “bye see ya never”. After making him aware of this change in attitude, I will be leaving ATT. ATT is a humanless, heartless representation of “the man”. To ATT, we are all just a number. So sad.

    I now see that my experience is similar to others, based on reviews I’ve read here. The customer service representatives and managers are unethical, and they lie. There is no way to sugarcoat it! I switched and cancelled my wireless phone service in July 2019. However, they did not cancel my account, continuing to bill me for my iPad because it was not a number that was ported. (I did not include the iPad on my new account, using home WiFi instead.) I said this to the AT&T representative I spoke with on the phone, and I thought this was clearly understood. I also wrote notes on all my communications with them.

    In the meantime, my mother passed away after 10 months on hospice care, and I was obviously overcome and overwhelmed. When I was able to call AT&T to stop their sending me bills, they told me I never cancelled my account, I just ported phone numbers out. They continued to bill me for the wireless service plan and the iPad line. (It is so illogical to even think I would choose to do that!). They were unpleasant, insulting, interrupted me, and denied that what I said was true.

    They were not willing to budge one iota on a huge bill for service I had cancelled, and did not use! I consider this criminal behavior on their part, amounting to theft! I am sure they have been seeing their subscribers decline, and they’re panicking. And there is nothing we suckers can do about it! I have to say it was a pretty shocking experience... I have never been treated like this by any company before. It really opened my eyes to corrupt and manipulative business practices. Buyer beware! Needless to say, I will go phone-less before I would ever use AT&T again.

    This company deserves a ZERO!!!! We signed up for WiFi and they sent a representative to our house to convince us to switch over to them. They talked up a good game!!!!! We had to give them our 2 iPhone 8’s in exchange for two $250 Visa gift cards. (Keep in mind we will soon pay out of pocket damn near $500 to Verizon for these phones we handed off to AT&T.) The representative said the cards would come in about 3 weeks. We ported our numbers over and joined AARP for additional money that was supposed to be applied to our bill. That was on August 9th. My husband has been calling and talking to supervisors for a month now. Dates keep changing. We were supposed to receive our cards on the 3rd. LOL at the hope AT&T crushes with their lies.

    Apparently the cards made it to our apartment's mailbox but was sent back because it didn’t have our apartment number. LOL right??? Att has our apartment number because they send us bills AND SENT PEOPLE TO OUR HOUSE!!!!! We called and someone told us we called and changed our address which we didn’t!!!!! So we were transferred to the rewards center supervisor SAMANTHA who helped us negative percent and lied some more and said that she will change our address because our wireless internet and cellular service aren’t connected. Lol HOW?!?!!

    Alright so we were supposed to receive our cards on the 13th but that was a Sunday and Monday was Columbus Day so today we were expecting them. Guess what we received? A BILL FOR WIRELESS INTERNET DISCONNECTION. LOL. So we called and A representative told us we had to be with them for 3 months before receiving it. Lol WHAT?!? So my husband asked to speak to a supervisor and her name was ANGELA. Again no help at all whatsoever. She said our address wasn’t right. Lol. Like GOD how are these people still in business?!?!

    When purchasing our phones, I went with older models because I was told the two phones would be free. After a couple of months, I noticed that I was being charged without any credit. Customer service said they will start crediting after 3 months (This info should be provided). A few more months down the road I check back and not only are they not providing a credit for one phone but they are only providing about half of a credit back on the other phone. I thought I got something in writing, but I can't find anything with what I was promised, and of course AT&T "has no records". Thank you AT&T for reminding me how large companies can't be trusted. It seems from reviews that there are many deceitful practices that are encouraged by corporate.

    I added a line to my shared plan and when I received my bill the next month I see that I was overcharged 117.63. Instead of adding the line to my already existing shared account the created a second shared account and data plan. I live chatted my concern and was told the difference was the 30 activation fee (even though my bill was 214 higher than usual). The customer service rep couldn't explain it, but was sure the 30 fee was the only additional charge even though I could clearly see I now had 2 accounts. I reconnected with another live chat representative explained the situation, she saw the additional account and then offered me $80 to compensate. Obviously I said no, I want the 117.63. She said she couldn't to that and transferred me to her manager. Again I explained the situation and she agreed and said that she will credit my account the 117.63.

    A week later I signed on to pay my bill and the credit is not on my account. I live chatted again, explained the situation for a 4th time the customer rep agreed said she seen the notes but no credit and transferred me to her manager. This is now the 5th time explaining the situation, I was told the the account is being investigated because they shouldn't have created a new account and they need to look at their process, but the solution is that I should pay the 117.63 and I will receive 10 a month for 12 months towards my bill, I declined that too. I was told to call accounts receivable because they are the only people that are able to give credits.

    I call the number given to me by the live chat manager, talk to the person (6th time explaining) and was told that's not her department and she sees the issue but can't fix it and then she transfers me. I explain the situation to the next person (time 7) and she agrees but then says she works only with Direct TV and has no access. She says she will stay on the line with the next person explain the situation. She transfers me and doesn't stay on the line of course. I explain again (8 times) and the women again agrees but is unable to credit the 117.63 and wants to transfer me again. At this point I say no, this is not worth my time. I will not be paying the bill and will be cancelling service with AT&T. Apparently all of their employees can't actually fix any issues.

    I was with ATT for a little over 3 years. The service is fine. One thing I will say is I believe ATT is a racket. They charge an extra $35 a month for LTE access if you have an iPhone. After adding up the access fee, the installment fee, taxes and the rest, it is expensive!!! I got tired of shelling out extra money for access**. I truly believe this is not something that is necessary but only adds to ATT's profit. One line unlimited service for a new iPhone will run you easily close to $160-80 a month!!!

    I just switched to Verizon which is superb service, a lot better than ATT. I pay $80 a month for the unlimited plan, no access fee at all like ATT- that saves me about $36 a month! I pay one activation fee of $20, one time!!! I’m paying $123 a month for way better service and a better provider. While I do appreciate the time I had with ATT, the nonsense needs to stop with them. They are profit hungry and it is disgusting. From constantly trying to get you to buy their TV services (which come on who really watches tv like that when you have all these streaming services) to monthly access fees. What is it that you are accessing that costs an extra $35 a month. Looking back I wish I knew this was part of the plan, I would have never signed up.

    We are active duty military and have been for 20 years. We have been AT&T wireless customers for 15 years and through many military moves. Their coverage has always been good, so we stuck with them, even when our bills continued to skyrocket. When the kids came along we added more devices (iPads) for learning academies and apps we pay for. The price for their unlimited plan is hefty, but to allow all our devices in the home to access said plan, is an absolute disaster! We have 4 iPads in the family, 2 iPhones for the adults and my iWatch service. We pay $335 each month for wireless service alone!

    At one point, we even were conned in to their home security, Digital Life, which was a TOTAL rip off and didn’t even work where we lived, but they refused to let us out of a contract and take back the equipment. Then we bundled with DirecTV when they bought it, nope! That service was terrible too, rogue billing EVERY month we had it! We were suppose to get premium channels free for 6 months at sign up for the bundle, we were gouged and charged for ALL of the movie channels we didn’t even watch! Our cable bill was astronomical and only worked when there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. At one point, we were paying AT&T $850 a month for services, that’s with the 22% military discount they claim to give us.

    Recently (8/15 thru 10/11/2019), we were forced to call in several times because they screwed up our billing so bad it was insane! We wanted to switch to paying our bill with a credit card for added sky miles, then we just paid it off every month. However, apparently if you pay with a credit card they automatically change your billing cycle because the credit cards process differently. Umm... first, WHY weren’t we warned and second, WHY?! It should not be that complicated under any circumstances to pay my bill with a different card. For two months straight, we had to call in every two weeks because of “billing cycles” screwing with our monthly payment and then sending our accounts in to LATE status and collections... but hey, I just paid $335 less than 15 days ago! WTF?!

    We spent probably over 48 hours on the phone with these people and my husband finally got a lady that claimed to have found the issue and added a month credit back. Well after that 2 hour issues/resolution, we look at our updated bill online and were even MORE mortified! She ADDED another month on to our bill and claimed we now owed $850 of which it was delinquent! How do these people have jobs?! Then my husband calls back again and they keep him on the phone for over 2 hours, drop his call then claim they can’t help him.

    This is how they treat loyal customers for 15 years?! Disgusting and unethical is the only words that comes to mind. We will take our valued business elsewhere. We have been scammed and ripped off enough by this company. Also, don’t expect any real help from customer service, they outsource all that and you will always get someone who barely speaks English. That and also reads off a prompt which adds about 45 extra minutes to a call, where a resolution is already not happening. This company is a joke.

I just called the other day to change my number and they only wanted to give me a number with a different area code which I didn't want.

Then yesterday I called back to complain about the night before and they connected me to the loyalty department. That department gave me a different area code number too, but it was an easy number and so I took it. I told her to make sure she removed the cancellation that was set up for today.

    Of course I wake up this morning and my phone doesn't work. I have been on chat trying to get it connected for 47 mins so far, and all that has been accomplished is them telling me they need to do a credit check, which I said no to.

I have (had) been a loyal, high-paying AT&T customer, traveling the globe and reliably paying my (overpriced) bill for about 7 years now. My latest experiences have caused me to seek legal action. After a billing mistake, I have been in contact with AT&T customer service no less than 7 times in the past 6 weeks, seeking to correct this, getting bounced around multiple departments, supposedly support cases opened, only to find “poof” - two weeks later those cases were fictitious or whatever ** department you’re talking to now doesn’t see to be able to talk to the next.

    I’ve logged a dozen hours on hold, equally a dozen talking to customer service reps, where they make promises it will be resolved by such and such a date, only to check a few days later ... nope ... not resolved. At this point, they force arbitration, but I am at the point of legal action, for time and money spent chasing this. Go to a company that appreciates your business and won’t drop balls like AT&T does left and right. I’m guessing customers of T-Mobile USA don’t experience this sort of customer abuse. It’s been one of the most frustrating, angering, yet eye-opening experiences with a company I’ve ever dealt with, and yes, my previous experience with AT&T Wireless should have taught me - after so much frustration and problems of a similar sort, hurling a phone into the ocean and walking away, moving to Verizon for 7 years prior to that.

    I spend so much time dealing with AT&T's ordering process, not sure if it's just sad or just comical. I was trying to sign up for this offer https://www.att.com/deals/sfo-internet-for-life-offer.html, basically you get free home internet (up to 100mbps) if you switch to AT&T wireless with unlimited and more premium plan. The chain of event that happened:

    Day 1: Tried to order on chat with AT&T. I was able to place the mobile order and started to go through the Internet ordering process when AT&T's system said it cannot find my address, which makes no sense (It was able to find my address right before I placed the order for the mobile order). I spent 30 minutes troubleshooting with the rep on chat, cleared cookies, used a different browser, etc. Finally the rep told me there is a glitch with the AT&T system that's why my address cannot be found. However, she said I can try chat or placing the internet order again the next day, as I have 14 days to complete the internet order to get the promo.

    Day 2: Morning - received an email from AT&T that my mobile order was cancelled. No reason provided. I called AT&T and was it's a known issue if I port my number and select next day in person delivery, so the order was cancelled... If this is true, why have the option online to begin with? I tried to place the order with the rep on the phone for the free internet promo, and the rep said he can help me with that. After providing all my info to the rep to place the mobile order, the rep's computer "magically" rebooted itself, so I was told we have to start all over. By this time, I've already spent another 40 minutes or so with AT&T. I decided to try again later.

    Day 2 Afternoon: On chat again, was able to place order for both wireless and internet this time around, and only took me an hour... I didn't want to do it online without the rep because I want to make sure they do whatever it is they had to do to make sure the account is set up with the free internet promotion. Day 3: I received an email about the mobile order. The order was on track and in process to be delivered on-time (10/1 - 10/3). I took my internet order number and tried to look up the internet order status, but the order was not found... I figured I'll give it another day and hope it's just a delay in the system.

    Day 4: Internet order was still not found. I went on chat and the agent said my order was cancelled, but no reason was provided. (Thanks AT&T for cancelling my order and not notifying me). I was transferred to another "specialist" to figure this out. The specialist told me someone will contact me to assist me with the ordering process. And yes, I received a call from AT&T. I explained the problem and explained I wanted to sign up for the promotion, so he said he can help me complete the internet order and get the promotion. At this point he said I need to close all the AT&T windows on my browser (including the chat window) so he can assist me in their system. I closed all the windows, and the call dropped. Now I have no one on the phone and the chat window was closed...

    Day 4: Called AT&T back to place the order for the internet from scratch. I had to explain the issues and the promo I'm trying to sign up for. The agent said he can help me with the internet order on the phone. This time he told me the reason my initial order was cancelled is because I had selected "self-installation" on a 75mbps internet, and anything above 50mbps requires professional installation. (Again, if this were true, why even have the option online?). I told him fine, but I'm not paying $99 for professional installation when it's free to do self-activation. However, he said he was not able to waive the installation. But if I do it online, I can get a $100 Visa giftcard to offset the professional installation, so finally got the order placed online. Finally everything looks to be processed this time around.

    Day 4: Went on chat to confirm with an agent that the orders I had placed qualified me for the promo. I was told yes. Day 5 (10/1) No update on mobile shipping yet. However, I got a 10/4 date for internet installation scheduled. Day 6 (10/2) 6:14PM - Received an email about my wireless order (iPhone 8) and the new expected shipped date is now 10/30 - 11/1. I called AT&T and asked about this. The rep that talked to me said the system is still showing 10/3 delivery date, and he has no further information. I would need to talk to the shipping department to get the latest update, and the shipping department is closed by this time.

    Day 7 (10/3) Morning - Called AT&T and was told the item is not available, so the expected ship date is 10/30 - 11/1 (it's one thing to miss the delivery date by 1 or 2 days, but 1 month?). By this time, I finally gave up and asked to cancel both the wireless and internet order. The agent said she can cancel wireless for me, but I will need to talk to the internet department to cancel the internet order. I requested to talk to internet department first as my internet installation was scheduled for the following day. The agent transferred my call and stayed on the line with me and explained the problem to the internet specialist. I added, the promotion requires me to pay for both services until both services becomes activate and I may need to pay for up to 3 months after that.

    The internet agent said, "Oh I can give you 1 month credit to cover the lost month due to the cell phone delay." However, when I asked about the 14 day requirement to have both services activated to receive the free internet promo, she could not give me a definitive answer to what will happen, but I can always call back if I don't receive the promotion within 3 months and they should be able to take care of it for me. I refused. Finally cancelled internet order, and the original agent who stayed on the line cancelled my mobile order. THE END. NO MORE AT&T.

    On 6/22/19 i closed my internet service account with AT&T set to take effect on 6/30/19. For the next 2 months i received bills from AT&T for more than 100$ each month. Alarmed i was still receiving bills at a new address that ATT had no knowledge of i called in. They assured me my account was in fact closed and the bills were sent out erroneously. They zero'd out the account and pronounced it closed. This took place on 9/14/19. Today 10/3/19 i received a new bill. At which point i called AT&T who stated i had never actually closed my account. But in fact i had removed internet service (the only service i previously had purchased) and opted into a new year long contract of NO internet service, but just a contractual agreement that gives ATT the right to bill me for a service agreement without providing service.

    I informed the Cancellation Tech over phone that all AT&T equipment (modem/router) was returned to AT&T store physically by myself months prior to said "new contract" at the recommendation of previous phone call with service department. According to cancellation service technician the summary of the conversation: on 6/22/19 i removed internet service from my account and shortly after returned all equipment to an Authorized branch location then sometime between 6/22-9/14/19 i re opened service for a year long agreement where no service is provided yet im still required to pay a monthly bill. At which point i stated, "Seriously, when was the last time you decided to give your money away for nothing in return? Does AT&T look like a charity?"

    It has taken one year to have our non profit tax exemption status applied to our business account. Our approximate wait times have been up to 1.5 hours to have said issue remedied. In addition to the disorganization the customer service ranges drastically. Louis, who is a manager employee id: ** appeared to be defensive and matter of fact regarding our poor customer experience. The issues are as listed:

    1. The phone rings SPAM constantly.
    2. CUSTOMER SERVICE representatives tend to react according to emotions and not service, quality, and evidence.
    3. The call protect app information was never emailed to me and does it even help?
    4. Follow up emails never received.
    5. We are being robbed of reimbursement from equipment we have paid over one year of taxes when we are exempt.
    6. We have a trail of emails to validate our issues but the pass the buck syndrome is the way here.

    This was and is a very discouraging experience and we do not wish to continue a relationship with this type of belittlement within an organization. The question is how to end the relationship at this point. My suggestion to all businesses - buy your telephone number and ship it where the service is working for you and not you working for them. Twenty emails, location visits, hours of telephone holding, and disgruntled customer service issues later we have safely come to this fair review.

    I was a victim of AT&T for many 2 years, when my contract was over I called to cancel all my services with them, and now I realize they've been charging $30 a month for 9 months, for installment fees for my watch and tablet I paid for. I called and the person on the phone did not issue a refund. The worst phone, cable and internet company you can ever have. P.S. now I'm with Metropcs and I get great reception and unlimited services for $60 a month flat!!

    I recently saw the bogo deal and decided to switch to AT&T. So I went to a nearby store and was told that the bogo deal is only available online. Fine, I went home and went through the buggy website to place an order. It's ironic how they promote online orders when their website can't do the simplest things. Regardless, I submitted an order and a few days later I get an email saying they hit a snag and I should call them. I called them only to find out that somehow the SSN didn't match. They canceled the order and I had to re-do it again. I submitted another order and they hit a snag again. This time it was identification questions. As a new customer, going through this process just to switch has been a pain. I don't even want to switch anymore.

    Their Representatives quotes a price and then we get a bill and it's higher. We call back and you can never get the same representative. They say that the representative what was wrong. They quote you another price and you get a bill and it's still higher than quoted. You call back you keep going through this over and over and over again. Then you schedule to talk to a supervisor and they never call. We call to schedule to talk to a supervisor again and they never call! Then I called the Office of the President, I got put on hold, I got disconnected and nobody calls me back! I can never get any help and no one there cares! I am fed up with them!
