    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 signed up for an AT&T bundle in August 2019 (cell phone and Directv). I've had to call every month since then to fight them over bogus charges hidden fees and extras I never ordered. I've spent hours on the phone trying to converse with people whose first language isn't English and who aren't empowered to help me anyway. I'm stuck with AT&T because of an early termination penalty. If I leave now I pay a penalty. If I stay I have to fight them every month. I'm staying but I'm warning people about AT&T!

    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.

After I left very disappointed I thought I would call their corporate office. After talking to Chris in customer service not getting the results I needed he transferred me to Customer Retention Department (which by the way is a joke) so after I talked to Samantha in that department.

    On 11/06/2019, 5pm central time, I called Att to get deal on a outdated phone my friends were getting, only available thru customer loyalty dept. 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). That is probably because I have been a 20 year loyal Att customer. **

    We canceled our U-verse because the price went up. That’s it. We loved uverse prior. We returned our equipment 2 days before the last day but after our billing cycle. Got a confirmation from UPS and uverse saying they got the equipment back. I then saw that our next bill showing we owed $620 because we returned the equipment back on time but after the billing cycle. I called to make sure we would not be billed and that there was no credit card on file. The woman I spoke with said no there was not since we canceled our account and that we would be fine.

    2 weeks later our checking account gets debited $620 and we get 2 overdrawn charges from our bank. Who has extra money just laying around when you live paycheck to paycheck. I call. Raise a fuss because of what happened and them Assuring me before that I would not be charged. Long story short they credit my uverse account but tell me I have to wait 1-3 billing cycles to get refunded. Little did I know that 2 months later I would get a master debit card that I can not take out cash. So they take cash out of your account then to only give you a card to use 2 months later.

    I am on hold and have been dealing with AT&T today for over one hour. I am simply attempting to unlock my device so I can go to another company. Each agent I spoke to sent me to another agent. 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. The last guy who handled my complaint did this on purpose, he sent me back to the general number. I think that is such a horrible mean thing to do. If you can’t help, just say so.

    I don't even want to waste much time reviewing such a out of control company. No ethical code whatsoever. Management much have cashed out already and left the country. My girlfriend talked to 5 total representatives over the phone in one day. All 5 gave her the runaround and obviously could not help her at all. All she was trying to do was get the agreed upon refund from a faulty watch, which they did not initially set up properly with the right coding. She cried all day because of the lack of resolution from AT&T representatives. That was just one of the days she had to communicate with the company.

    I contacted AT&T over the phone about a week later because I separately had two issues, of my own, with my phone. 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. The male AT&T representative seemed to understand and actually care, suggesting he could save us a few bucks with our phone plan. So he changed our plan to a plan that does not help us at all and not what he said. I am just appalled of how our government lets certain companies run amok in the United States of America.

    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. I'm traveling for the holidays and would have appreciated working phones for urgent calls.

    Due to terrible unusable wireless internet service for much of 2018/2019, in mid 2019 AT&T customer service sent a technician to our residence to fix faulty equipment (for the 4th or 5th time needing to replace bad equipment). The rep over the phone promised no charge would be made for the service or equipment, the tech promised the same after replacing the router again. 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.

    I got Directv thru them. They canceled that order. At first I haven’t received my 45 or my 40 from my orders. All they say is it’s coming when your order is canceled. Well my emails say they are canceled. Ready go. Can’t deliver cause they are canceled. They didn’t give me my 35 bc from my tv they finally came and hooked it up. They tell you to go to the local AT&T. I go there. They can’t tell you nothing because they can’t see anything like that. I’m so aggravated. These people are a rip off.

    I just got ripped off by ATT Prepaid service! I paid my bill last week, which is supposed to carry my service through til next month. I went online yesterday to look at other plan options. I looked at the $50 plan. It said I would have to pay $50 to switch. But since I just paid my bill I decided not to switch. When I tried to make a call 15min later my phone didn't work. When I called ATT, a foreigner answered and said I forfeited my service and I'd have to pay again to get my service back. I don't him I didn't switch plans and I just paid my bill last week. He said it doesn't matter, and if wanted my phone on again I had to pay again! STAY AWAY FROM ATT!!!

    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.

    My dad and I have been with this company for some years now. Always on time with our bill have paid thousands of dollars to this company. We pay extra for insurance through Assurion. It is pointless let me tell you and this company doesn't care. 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. The last few years every device I have had to get through them has crapped out within a year. Not due to misuse or damage but due to faulty mechanisms and devices. Their service has gone to crap!!!!

    Avoid going with this company at all costs if possible. I'm sure my dad and I will be switching at the end of this contract. 255 dollars a month and they could give a crap less about us as a customer or helping when they screw up!!! 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. Still nothing. Then when he thought I hung up after ending the call I could hear the manager talking crap in the background... what he doesn't know is the call was recorded.

    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 been with AT&T for over 10 years. (Not sure why it takes me so long to change.) 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. It is a shame their customer service is so bad. Their platform is pretty good overall and they could have a monopoly if they would just treat people right.

    When traveling abroad, I made the decision to add the monthly passport plan to my base AT&T plan. I received a confirmation email from AT&T that the $60 plan had been added.

When I returned from my trip, I was charged for both the base data plan along with a duplicative monthly day pass of $10 a day for an additional $130. 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. It feels like the strategy is to wear customers down to the point that they just pay the phantom expenses to avoid the mind-numbing conversations/pain.

    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. If anyone of us Americans was to use foreign agents to defraud people we would be arrested, so I dont see why AT&T is above it.

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. I was told that since I had paid for July 15th and canceled on July 23rd I owed the amount for the WEEK of service I had gotten.

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.

Hours on the phone being transferred, hung up on and argumentative sales agents! I requested a supervisor on 3 occasions, hung up on twice and flat out refused 3rd time stating they are too busy.

    I had started with the 5gb shared plan for me and my husband and and it was great. 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. I will be leaving ATT once my phones paid off because i cant be with a company that promises a certain payment and screws you.

    What a complete joke, would leave 0 stars if possible. From the very start I have had a terrible, terrible experience with AT&T, please spare yourself the headache and GET ANOTHER PHONE SERVICE. My first bill for service on an iPad that I PAID IN FULL (keep in mind, so no installment charge) and an iPhone X (iPhone had an installment plan, $30/m) came out to $227. You read that right, TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN DOLLARS. It has been nothing but a nightmare, I cancelled service on the iPad and for just service on my iPhone was $70 (not including $30 installment plan charge). For a single line $70, and for what? I never got service anywhere!

    There's literally too many problems to list that I've had with AT&T but most of them were with billing, 95% of their employees aren't properly trained, not knowledgeable on company policies, uninformed, don't read or notate customer accounts when calling in, RUDE.

    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. I can't believe they do this to customers that have been with them over 15 years!

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.

    Upon returning home I went to inquire about the problem. Miguel, who had assisted me before (he is friendly, knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to help clients), did a quick check and said I'd have to wait until all the charges from that billing period had come though. 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. With Miguel's help and support the billed amount was changed in accordance with what I had originally expected. Thanks to all their help...I'm very pleased!

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!

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?!?!

    I been with AT&T for over a year and I have 2 phones on the $75 dollar shared plan and I been paying $290 to $380 a month and all they keep saying is late charges... How can a person keep having late charges when I pay my bill to a zero balance every month? I am so sick of att and all the hidden charges and fees. As I am writing my review I am also on hold with Att and the rep put my on hold 20 mins ago and haven't came back to the phone so I am just sitting. I should have not let my friend talk me into getting a contract through att because I haven't been satisfied since day one. Customer service is wack and sucks... When you call at&t write down names of the reps you talk to and the I'd number... I am still on hold and no one has said anything.

    I use to have Comcast, but you can't just get internet through them. They want you to have a package. Therefore; I decided to go with AT&T. It's started out good the first month or 2 and then after that I always find myself having to reset my modem, or my laptop because of a weak connection. I called customer service. They bring someone out to give me a new modem which I did not receive. The technician told me there was nothing wrong with it and not even 10 minutes after he left the connection went out again. I usually have to restart my laptop at least 5-7 times a day. It's ridiculous!

    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. Since they have no fear of class action lawsuits, they know it's in their favor to continue these practices.

    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 have transcripts of all the live chats and I submitted a BBB review about their poor customer service and illegal billing activities.

I immediately called customer service and was assured that the charges would be reversed. Six calls later and that lie has been repeated every time. It often takes 5-10 minutes to convince customer support that I even have an account as I often get shunted to Direct TV support even when internally transferred from ATT mobile. I don’t have direct tv so I have to convince support that I am a mobile customer.

    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 wish someone would have the millions required to sue them for unlawful business and piss poor ethics!

They wouldn't let me do it and said I needed to use some app, which I did, and I still got several calls a day. 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. After 2 hours on the phone I was so pissed I hung up. 2 full hours. Then I waited 30 mins and called again and got the same runaround and **, so I said disconnect my phone in 2 days. 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. Now I'm on hold on chat while they transfer me to the loyalty department chat. Now they are reading the chat. This is so ridiculous. I've never been treated so horribly as I have from ATT. I thought Time Warner was bad, but it doesn't compare. My phone is still disconnected. Everyone that I have talked to uses about 200 words to say what could be said in 10. It's beyond ridiculous!

So I went ahead and placed another order with new numbers. That order was cancelled because the MANAGER at the store placed the order under someone else’s acct and CHARGED my bank acct in which I am still waiting to be refunded.

    They looked at the notes and read the attached promotion that sales had added and said that promotion expired in July. Hours of my time taken up and they will not honor the promotion after their mistake. AT&T your customer service is getting worse by the day. When I called back and talked to a manager all they said was they would be sending the sales person to be further trained.

    I would not wish my experiences with AT&T upon anyone. Horrific is the best way to describe it. 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.

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.

    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.

    I don't have the patience to write a lengthy review but I will say this.... I must have called 10 times at least and gotten a different answer everytime. I've been transferred all over the world. Spent countless hours listening to elevator music. People have screwed up my bill so many times. When I finally switched to Verizon I didn't know what I was really paying. Lastly, when I tried to call and cancel it took me 45 minutes of being transferred all over the place and waiting for the next rep. No accessible customer service in the U.S. either. I don't mind speaking to another country but when you are having an issue, it's nice to talk to someone who understands the problem and isn't spitting from a script. Go ANYWHERE other than AT&T!!!

I was scheduled for service setup and I got a fiber optic line, but no equipment to actually use it. I called and another appointment was scheduled. I called 2 days before to confirm this appointment and to ensure that I would not be billed for the current unusable line. I was told that I would not be billed and AT&T would be there as scheduled.

That is a way to treat a new customer! I told them that if they are incapable of getting him back the same day that I will cancel my purchase. I even asked to speak with the escalation team. They said that it is OK if I want to cancel, and they did! Just to make a point here, ATT act like they are too big to fail, and that is scary.

    Before I jump into the gory details I will point out some largely unknown considerations which are not mentioned or highlighted by AT&T Reps or advertising. For those who don't want to take the trip down the rabbit hole, into my personal adventure.

    1. The "Get One" is not free, unless you are buying less desirable devices. They have a maximum credit that you may use toward your get one device. In my case, that was $300 less than the cost of the device. So you end up paying at least a small payment on the second device. Also you will pay ALL sales tax, up front. To me, I don't see how they are able to advertise their offer as a buy one, get one?

    2. You have to add a new phone line to qualify. Like many other people, I figured what the heck, it's only $20 a month for the newly added line. The AT&T Sales reps even read it back to me (and probably everyone else) in that fashion. Something like, "Ok you have the new line for $19.99 a month...bla bla." What they fail to mention is they will be adding the standard data rate to that line as well. So that added line became roughly $70/mo for me. Essentially, they make a much larger profit that if you were to simply buy the two phones on standard, full-price payment plans.

    3. The credit toward the second device a.k.a. "get one" is not given to you immediately. It is split up over the standard term (30-months).

    4. (PAY ATTENTION HERE) AT&T has a clause in the terms of their BOGO offers allowing them to "discontinue giving you the credit toward the free device at any time during that 30 month term" if you are late on your bill and they turn off (suspend) your account, even if you pay it instantly and your devices are restored within the hour. If you want the BOGO credit reinstated, you have to call in and have them open a case. Then a special department, the "ICU team," will decide whether to restore the BOGO credit or not. So if you go on vacation or heaven forbid, lose your job, and your cell phone bill is shut off for a day or two, and it just so happens it is on month two of your BOGO, they can revoke your credit and you will be expected to pay full price for both devices, until you open a case and the fate of your deal is in the hands of the ICU gods. I bet you are thinking, WTF? And so was I. How can such an unfair policy be in place? How can they fail to mention it? Why did I have to call and speak with over 10 AT&T Representatives, in at least three departments, before one of them knew about this rule? I think the answer is simple, they probably don't offer their Reps much information about that rule and Sales is probably left clueless.

    Unless you already planned on opening a new phone line and keep your bill on auto-pay, these BOGO deals are just way too risky and one-sided, with good ole AT&T getting nearly all of the benefit. So... With all of that in mind, if you would still like to take a trip into a summarized version of my 5 month saga with AT&T's Customer Care-less Reps, read on. Keep this in mind, if you read all of it. At the time I posted this, AT&T still has not done a single thing to make this right for me. I am truly disgusted by the horrid treatment by this greedy, corporate hoard.

    On (5/4/2019) I called AT&T to have a Representative review my account. I explained that my monthly bill seems higher than it should be. He told me that I stopped receiving a monthly credit for a BOGO offer, after a few months and couldn't find a reason for it. I signed up for a BOGO at an AT&T retail location, in Clearwater, FL, on (12/09/2017). He reviewed the details with his Mgr. and both agreed that I am "due $580.30 for the missing months of BOGO credit" and they submitted a case for me. For months after, (5/4/19 - 9/20/19), I called AT&T (each month) and received a different excuse on every call, about why my credit has not yet been issued. I kept details of each Rep. and call.

    I grew tired of feeling misled, being passed between Departments, with no results, and I filed complaint with BBB. On 9/25 I received a voicemail and an email from AT&T "the Office of the President." On 9/26 I spoke to the Rep. Tammy **, who had apparently been assigned my case. She told me, "the reason I am not receiving the credit is because the AT&T Sales Rep. had 'not' signed me up for the BOGO, just as an upgrade" on 12/9/17. I told her, "this is the first time anyone has said this to me. Not one of the 10+ AT&T Rep's or Mgr's has even questioned me about the BOGO deal." For 5 months, on each call, AT&T Reps would spend (1+ hours) reviewing my acct. and associated notes, asking me all types of questions.

    Every time the Rep and Mgr on the call decided to push my case forward, assuring me that it will be handled "this time." Tammy apologized for their many errors but offered no remedy for the service charges, now up to $867. I've been lead to believe, time and time again, that the credit was going to happen which would have covered the monthly fees accumulated during this process. She offered a $100 credit, in lieu of the $580 credit, and said, "that's the best she could do." That is odd, considering two lower ranking Reps had already asked me if I would accept $270, instead of $580.

    I asked her, "if the phones were added to my acct. as an upgrade, not the BOGO deal I asked for and was told I was signing up for, why was an additional phone line also added on the exact same day as the (2) identical, Samsung Note-8 phones?" I explained, "The new line added (7007) was a requirement to qualify for a BOGO deal, not a requirement for an upgrade." I asked, "please, look at that phone line and she'd see that it has never even been used." She did look and confirmed that the line had not been used. After that she said that she could remove the (7007) line from my account and not charge me the cancellation or monthly fees ($70/mo) remaining on that line, but no retroactive credit.

    If the AT&T Sales Rep. signed us up on the wrong type of account and I've not received any of the BOGO credit, that line also should not have been added (not required for an upgrade). The $70/mo in service fees that I've paid, since 12/2017, should be credited back to me. I sent Tammy an email with this request. I also added it to the latest response AT&T added for my BBB complaint where they stated, "they've tried to reach me but haven't heard back." Even though, prior to that, I'd already sent two emails and had the 56-minute conversation with Tammy, which I have been detailing in this complaint. I have heard nothing further from Tammy ** or AT&T.

    The BOGO deal that I was told I was receiving and what I accepted, never happened. The new phone line, "required" to qualify for their BOGO offer, also should not have been added along with its ($70/mo) in service fees. From any angle this is viewed it's clearly negligence by AT&T Representatives. I would like them to be accountable for it and refund ($70/mo x 20 months = $1400), since Tammy ** "Office of the President" explained this large mistake made by AT&T.

    I was an AT&T prepaid member on their $65 a month unlimited plan (which is $55 a month with autopay) until recently, due to financial constraints I ended up needing to downgrade to the $35 a month plan ($30 a month with autopay). The $55 that I paid was on the 22nd and I switched on the 27th which means that I had only used 5 days of my 30 day billing cycle for my plan meaning I still had 25 days left equaling around $48.83 left of value on my plan. Come to find out even when you downgrade a plan the new billing cycle opens up and you have to pay AT&T $35 all over again and not get credit for time you had left again for me equaling $48.83.

    Now I get that they don't want people upgrading their plans all the time just to get that little extra more data for their plans and not paying the premium price for the whole time but I was on unlimited and was asking for less and just asking for a $48.83 credit to my account for which they refused to give. So now because I don't talk or text much and I will now be using wifi as my main means of internet consumption, they aren't even getting the $30 a month that they would have if they had just worked with me because I am now only on their 25 cent a minute plan. So, they will only ever get $10 every 3 months from me until I find a better cellular company that actually can use some common sense and not try to basically steal from their customers and the only reason they're even getting that much from me is that that's the amount of time it takes for prepaid minutes to expire.

    I spent over 4 hours on the phone with AT&T today. Both my mobile and my internet issues are still unresolved. Cell phone: 17 months ago my account was set up wrong. I have been trying to fix since. After 2 hours I still have the same service. I learned they had been charging me for an additional number for 17 months. Also after 2 more transfers I learned the department that will need to fix these error is closed.

    Cell phone issue 2: 2 week ago while trying to sort out an internet issue, the agent informed me they were giving me a "free" iPhone. This was not something I requested nor something I need or wanted. Given the agent's persistence and unwillingness to discuss my internet issue until I agreed to take the phone, I finally agreed. Then after many forms and promises that there would be no fees, my internet issue was left unresolved and I became the owner of a new plan that I do not want or need. Working to return this phone and cancel this service, I have been told they cannot do this without a manual process which will require me to track the package and then call back to make sure they do their job.

    Internet: We moved into a new home and requested the highest speed internet. The rep came and left the line cable exposed, running down my house, across my lawn, taped to my driveway, and through 2 neighbors yards. I was told this would be buried. 5 weeks later and after a number of outages, the cable is still taped to my driveway and keeps getting damaged by animals and neighbors.

    This service is appalling. AT&T has sold me what they want me to have, not what I need or want. I have had to sit on hold endlessly, when asking for a supervisor am told I cannot speak with one and am continually left with unresolved issues. I have now paid off my phones and paid early exit fees. Also I have been charged for phones I never had, and phones I did not request. They have also charged me a fee to pay off the purchase of my cell phones early which I did not even think legal. I am free to look elsewhere and would never recommend AT&T to anyone. This was the worst experience one could possibly have.

    We have used AT&T for 12 years or so (before the name change) and are grateful for the First Responder discount we ALREADY had on our account. My complaint is customer service's lack of knowledge and their representatives misrepresentation of services provided. We've visited 3 different stores in addition to spending an hour and half on the phone with customer service. We had a pretty basic plan compared to the more extensive ones offered. We share 20GB between 2 lines and a tablet. There's also one phone payment plan and 2 mobile insurances, so we're paying $167.93.

    FirstNet came to visit at the fire station to pitch the new partnership and discounts offered, but we went in-store to TRY to verify details. First questions being if we were to edit our account, is it ideal to wait until our billing period ends or do they adjust your bill for the current period? They adjust your bill in the following month but bc of changes, we ended up paying 3 separate bills in the span of 30 days. Maybe some people don't care about that, but we do as a family of 6. We opted for autopay to "save $10." What's amazing is that after deducting the activity payments from partial month charges.

    Our FirstNet with my AT&T bill is now $170.69. My question is how the heck is switching to FirstNet and having their family discount saving us anything?! Even with auto bill pay activated we are still roughly $3 MORE. We tried explaining this several times, so they took off our tablet line to show that we're "saving money" with the changes. So now we lost our third line with a savings of only $10.73. Essentially, we could have just kept our account as is with all 3 lines, applied auto bill pay to save $10, avoided wasting hours of our time, energy, gas driving, and mileage.

    This is by far the worst customer service experience, and FirstNet is a crock. If you want priority phone service, then sure I guess go ahead and make the switch but be aware that you're spending more for it not "saving" as they claim. At the very beginning we asked them to calculate everything before we made the change. We were told that we'd save an estimate of $30-50 after taxes and fees. This would have been great if it were true. We made it very clear that we did NOT want to make any changes if we were going tdo pay more for it. The response was that they can't do anything, so much for customer loyalty or giving back. They are just taking advantage of the First Responder community, don't take the bait! I'll be going back to their store end of October just to show them all 3 printed statements side by side. Hopefully someone in that company can understand basic arithmetic.

Combining my DirectTV with ATT was the worst mistake of my life because now I get to deal with the subpar customer service for TWO of my services.

    I am not one to write reviews (and I think this would be my first) on anything but this past experience was awful. I understand there are long hold times and am pretty easy going about it but when an issue take 6+ plus hours to not even resolve I feel like I have to say something. We initially had cable and internet. Our areas highest internet speed provided by AT&T when we moved was 30 mbps. (I would be happy to go to Spectrum but unfortunately my work line is provided by them and they cannot have both a personal and business lines in the same house).

    After our 2 year contract was up I went back to see if they had any higher speed and was ecstatic to see 100 mbps. We are not cable people and only had it due to the low speed internet so the first thing I do is call to cancel Directv and upgrade the internet. This process initially took 1 ½ hours and after all this time the representative advised he could not help and transferred to another representative.

    About 30 minutes later the current rep fixed the errors of the other (he had added Uverse and upgraded internet) and we were set to have the new internet line installed Aug 15th with a new monthly bill of $50 plus tax (we couldn’t get the $40 promotion since we didn’t bundle anything). The installer came and went and we had no issues. We even received the return equipment letter we were told we would get for the Directv equipment.

    Fast forward to today… I started by logging in and seeing that our bill went up… WE OWE $404. I dig a little deeper and see that we are being billed for Uverse TV now and internet with all these extra fees. I immediately get on the phone thinking it would be a quick resolve since I have dates, names, and past emails of what should have been done. I sat on the phone being passed around from one rep to another with not one person just accepting responsibility for the mix up. They continue to say we can cancel your TV today but you will still owe the $404. 4 hours later and my ticket was escalated to only be followed up within 3 days.

    I have been a AT&T customer for 8 yrs now. I bought a wireless hotspot device with them back in June 2019 from a local (AT&T) retail store in flower mound, TX. I did not like it so went back to the store and returned it within "buyer's remorse period" of 14 days. Next month I see a charge on my account for the device and activation fee with total of $154 dollars. I made the payment of that bill not realizing they had included a fee for the device I already returned.

    When I realized my mistake, I called AT&T customer service line and requested that I be refunded for the amount that I was charged for June as I had already returned the device within the allowed time. I was told they have credited that amount on my account. Following month July and August, I see they have charged me again for the services for the returned device for 80 dollar each month. I called them again and they said they can't do anything about that and I need to talk to loyalty department to get this addressed.

    I called AT&T loyalty department and talked to an agent and then a supervisor for about 2 hours who mentioned that I have already received a credit for the services for the device returned once and the charges on my account showing up for month of July and August will have to be paid although I have not been using the device since June. The supervisor claimed that I had accepted a credit "deal" that stated that I agreed to not ask for any credit in the future for this device which was completely false statement which I have never made to anyone.

    I told the supervisor that I am not willing to pay for services on a device that I have returned since June for which they are charging me until September and supervisor said there is nothing she can do about it and then ended the conversation. I feel totally cheated by AT&T who expect me to pay for 3 months service on a device that was returned months ago. Do not see a resolution from the company as they have suspended my account for refusing to pay the fraudulent charges. Future customers beware!!

    I decided to change phone services from ATT to Verizon because I'm getting married and wanted to get a line with my new wife on her service. I had an i-phone 8+ and was happy with the phone. I was told by the Verizon salesperson I would need to get my phone un-locked so they could set it up with one of their sims and switch me to Verizon. When I went to the local ATT store I was told no problem. It would be done within 48 hours. 48 hours went by and still no phone. I am 65 taking care of an elderly brother now with no phone service. So I went back to the ATT store and asked why my phone was still not unlocked, This time I'm told I still owe money on my phone and it can't be un-locked till I pay the bill. Two days ago I was told I was good to go. I told them that's fine. I'll pay what I owe on the phone.

    Now I'm told I can't pay the bill until it comes in the mail which may be as long as three weeks. Are you kidding me! No phone for three weeks? I'm a Veteran and I'm waiting for a call on a hip surgery as well as staying in contact with my elderly brother who needs a lot of assistance. Their response is sorry sir. So I go back to Verizon. They tell me they can't do anything with the i phone 8+ until it's un-locked. My only option, unless I want to wait the 3 weeks, was to buy a new phone which set me back $800.00. Bad advice and bad sevice from ATT cost me. And now I have to pay off the iphone 8 with ATT on top of it to add insult to injury.

    I went to AT&T, 8350 WESTHEIMER ROAD, HOUSTON, TEXAS 77063 to upgrade my AT&T wireless mobile account (to get new phone for my existing mobile number) and my contract already completed on May 2019. The employee of AT&T store order new phone with new mobile number. I asked the employee more questions. He simple said, "You will get new phone for your number." Finally I got a phone with new number.

    3rd day I returned the new phone with sim card and now 36 days completed and the status is 1. AT&T add payment for $189 for new number and new phone which I didn't make even one call from the new number. 2. Not refund my $99 tax for new devices. 3. More than 30 days AT&T didn't know the status of my returned device. 4. I spent approximately 23 hrs including walking to specific location and calling customer care and they are more willing to sale another device than fix my problem. Finally I decided to move to Verizon or T-Mobile. I am not recommending any customer to buy AT&T phones and services.

    After almost two hours in the store, the tech told us that we would get the service we want, but we will not get the $300 discount that we asked them about when we started, two hours previously. So, we did the natural thing: we cancelled. However, they had already put a hold on $300, which took place immediately, and they get to play with our money for a week before the cancellation clears.

    Three years ago, I bought DirecTV from them. Among other perks, I was promised two $100 gift cards. Despite numerous and repeated complaints to them, I never received the cards, which are listed in the contract I signed. After two years of their lies, I cancelled one year prematurely because I would rather pay a one-year cancellation penalty than deal with a fraudulent company. These are typical, but not isolated examples of a company that you do not want to deal with.

    Omg, I don't know where to start. So I will try to make a long long story not as long. Back in August 23rd I called to upgrade my phone and to get my own plan started because I got divorced and I needed to off his plan. Well that in itself would take too long to explain. So I called on that day. Talked to T. ** and explained my situation so I ordered the Samsung S8 1 up from what I had. Who cares I use it for a phone and messaging so anyways I asked him for the lowest price plan. HE TOLD ME 3GB UNLIMITED TALK AND MESSAGING FOR $60-10 if I sign up for auto pay. Great I thought. Omg nope.

    So 1 day I went into my AT&T app and I almost fell off my chair because T. ** didn't do his job correctly. I was charged UNLIMITED data. My bill was $126.08 when it should have been 60 plus tax (To some $126.08 is not a lot but again my phone is used for a phone not a computer) so I knew right then and there I put my hands in my face and knew I have a challenge because they messed up. Not me. I knew I was going to have to talk to people that I can't understand at all and they say over and over (I UNDERSTAND LET ME PULL UP YOUR ACCOUNT). MY GOSH HOW LONG DOES IT Take to pull up an account. There's was times I would say "Hello are you there" because there is silence and I've been hung up on may times so I start the conversation with what's your name and ID# but half of the time they give you a fake name and id#. So long story I had to pay for their mistake or they would shut my service off and they made the mistake. Not me.

    How the heck can that be fair or legal. So I'm waiting for my 2nd bill because if it's still wrong after like 8 people including a couple managers that never call you back. One named Walter terrible manager and how did he get that position. They have scripted they go off of. Every time you call it's the same and then when they transfer you then you have to tell the whole story again. So my story is if my bill is wrong I will give them their phone and cancel the service and I will fight for my rights because they made the mistake. Not me. I will NEVER use them again!!!!

    This entire company customer service is a JOKE!!! They will tell you whatever they think you want to hear to get you off the phone. The supervisors tell you they need to transfer the call to their station and will call you back (don't hold your breath). The reps and supervisors have no real knowledge of their own company's policies and then when you do something they've told you to do it never happens the way they tell you. This is not limited to just the wireless it is also the DirectTV and home internet customer service. The only group at this whole organization that seems to provide any customer service that is worth the time it will take you to actually talk to someone about your problem.

    First they have the robot to try to ask you questions when you need a person. Then they have another robot to ask you the same questions you just answered. Then when you finally get a person, they need a "passcode" when we have the account number, email and password information but not a "passcode". They are hard to get through to as well as a convoluted setup when you try to do stuff online. It's totally inefficient and frustrating!

    So I purchased a iPhone for my daughter less than a year ago and of course something came up and we had to file a claim with the replacement plan that we got on her phone. Well, in addition to paying for the original cost of the phone, we had to pay a like $250 deductible for the replacement of the phone. Ok so then they told me we have 12 months warranty on the phone that was replaced. Ok so I did change cell phone services because I was not happy with AT&T for other reasons. Well I just called them today and got the run around from many people especially supervisor Mary #** at #866-506-9748.

    They went through a testing and agreed that the phone needs to be replaced but then said my warranty of the product is void because I no longer have an account with them. How does this make any sense? If there is a warranty (not to mention that I just paid them a deductible a few months ago), it should always be in effect until it is expired! This is just so frustrating. So in my experience. Just stay AWAY from AT&T folks!

    I loathe this company. I detest and despise its high prices and hidden fees. I end up paying hundreds of dollars every month. Apparently this is because of international calls, but I make those via messengers like Whatsapp, which use wi-fi, so I do not understand what I am being charged for. When I get the snide automatic message notifying me of my past due every month: "Uh-oh life happens. To ensure that suspension of the service does not occur....", I want to vomit. Please do not try to make corporate copy sound friendly, it just sounds creepy. This is my own fault for not transferring to a better service months ago. I will do that as soon as I get the chance. See ya AT&T.

Creating countless problems en route and disrupting routing on GPS, This company has probably no ethics and concern for its customers. They are self oriented. I give them zero rating and request all wireless users to avoid their connections. I will also move away from their network soon.

    First off, if possible I would have rated AT&T lower than a 1, my wife and I have been with AT&T for decades. This afternoon both of our cellphones quit working. I am hard of hearing, so my wife called AT&T Service, the wait was minimal to talk to a technician. The technician walked my wife through both cell phones in an attempt to get it resolved. The technician finally told my wife that the system was down and we would need to wait 2 to 3 days for service.

    After an hour and a half +-, my wife asked to talk with a supervisor, the wait to talk to a supervisor was long, 20 min +-, then she was hung up on. My wife called back and was directed to another technician who again tried to resolve the issue, finally telling my wife that she would need to go to an AT&T store. After waiting her turn in the AT&T store, a technician helped my wife and she thought the issue was resolved. Outside of our home both phones worked. Inside the house, my cell phone's internet worked but the phone would not work for incoming or outgoing calls.

    To make a long story short, since that first visit to the AT&T store, we have been on the phone with 3 different technicians and she has returned to the AT&T store. The issue on both phones seems to be no internet connection; we can't connect to the network, hard to believe since my phone's internet is working. We have turned the WIFI on as directed and still no phone service.

    We have been told over the phone that we need to activate a feature on our phones, the only problem is the feature we are being told to activate is not on our phones. We use AT&T because of their expected knowledge and ability to work with customers that do not have that expertise. Between my wife and we have expended over 8 hours and are no better off than before communicating with AT&T. This is a fine way of losing customers who have been loyal customers for a long time.

    Before going to Greece for two weeks, I investigated how we could limit our AT&T Wireless fees. I decided to keep the International Day Pass plan on the device that already had it, and to add it to the two devices that didn't. This way, we would pay $10 per device per day only on the days we used them. A few days into the trip, we decided we wanted to be able to use our phones every day, so we signed up for the 30-day Passport plan, for which we paid $60 per device for 30 days of coverage.

    We proceeded to use our phones every day of the trip, thinking we were free of the restrictions of the plan that assesses a daily charge based on whether or not you use the phone that day. I expected to pay $10 per day per device for the first few days of the trip, and then $60 per device for the remainder of the trip. However, AT&T charged us $60 each for the Passport plan and also continued to charge us the daily fee.

    I found the following information later on an FAQ page. I think AT&T should have made this more clear when I added the Passport plan after I already had the International Day Pass plan: "Q. How will I be charged if I add both International Day Pass and AT&T Passport to my device? A. You’ll be charged $10/day when you use your phone in a country included in International Day Pass. Passport rates and allowances will only apply in Passport countries that are not included in International Day Pass. Go to att.com/globalcountries to review products available by country."

    Beware: If you're traveling in a country covered by both Passport and International Day Pass, you should not carry both plans. You might expect, like I did, for AT&T to assess the daily fee only if your usage is not covered by the Passport plan. But that's not the case. I'm still seeking resolution with AT&T, but it looks like I was misled and this will cost me about $250.
