    In two days and over 3 hours spent between customer service and billing and 290.02 paid and only an August bill left to be paid account still showing past due. Dealing with disrespectful, rude workers! Disgusting practices they uphold. The first call to customer service ** guy transferred me after he couldn't understand what was going on and continuing to disregard me explaining the payment I had my on July 9, 2025 of $145.01. He said transferring to billing only to be hung up on.

    I called back next morning of July 19, 2025 supposedly speaking to billing rep. Steadily telling me I don't have a promise to pay on account. Of which of course I do in the confirmation texts they send to your phone. Only after about 40 minutes for her to then say, I had broke a payment arrangement I made and it didn't matter if I did have one my service was going to be suspended. So, after a bunch of nonsense and sarcasm from this rude rep. and her telling me what you paid on July 9th was for June. In order to keep service I needed to pay July bill which is now combined with August and the suspension will not occur and I will be current. The amount on the account went down but still showing past due! How, is this possible if bill is for upcoming of August 2025.

    Disrespectful, unprofessional, uncourteous, untrained what are suppose to be employees or a joke and a disservice to customers like myself who have to go through being belittled and still no resolve. Once these final 12 payments on this phone is complete which will be in about 3 weeks paying it off. I will be dropping this horrible company and so thankful to do so! From being lied to and overcharged but thinking they have the biggest coverage area so keeping them over the years from the 1990's to current via contract or monthly prepaid is my own fault. However, after this go round, no longer! Bon voyage to disrespectful company who allows their customers to be treated like garbage. They do not seek to resolve or troubleshoot issues, between their bad attitudes, overcharging and service that on 5G is steadily saying no network available it's time to go!

    I went into a AT&T store that supposedly was not an authorized store, said AT&T on door-sign-don’t know the difference. I went in there to talk about upgrading. My Apple Watch spoke to the new employee about not wanting a smaller watch than what I already have. He rang up the smallest Apple Watch and put in bag. That employee had to leave so the manager Cole took over over thank goodness he did because he looked at the Apple Watch in the box and it was a smaller one. The deal included a iPad which I did not need. They told me it was only $.99 but what they failed to tell me is that I had to pay for a line For the whole 36 months. I asked specifically how long would it be for my AT&T bill to go back to normal and the new employee said to max three months if it doesn’t go back, then come in here to the store. But my bill was never going to go to the same because of the iPad. Seems this employee did not know all the facts which I asked.

    I talked to the manager, Cole he was trying to work something out to help me out with this situation months and months go by and still nothing. I feel like I was wrongfully sold this iPad for a promotion that was a bundle-they didn’t have the Apple Watch I wanted but tried to sneak in a smaller watch bring it up paid for it everything and before I left the store the manager Cole helped me and realize it was a smaller one than I had to do a whole another transaction. Wait for a refund and now I’m stuck with the iPad don’t need, but it was a promotion. This has been the worst experience I’ve had with AT&T. And the customer service is terrible. I really thought when I switched from Verizon to AT&T, that things would be better as they had been until this specific situation. And no one wants to help me. Very unfortunate.

    I just spent wasted time with AT&T tech support. Last week modem/router (Gateway) reset itself to the default settings. Tech support kept having me do a lot of checks and speed tests. About 30 mbps at the time but very usable. Gateway has crash twice since but at least it didn't default all settings. Takes a lot of time to configure. Tech kept blaming me for resetting unit. I just unplugged it and reconnected. Didn't even get close. The only thing that can cause resetting to defaults by itself is a defective gateway or update. Update shouldn't, but they can. I thought maybe a bad update, but since it has crashed more since, I now know it's the Gateway. They said to give it 7 days.

    I also need an outside antenna, but they discontinued that Gateway. We don't all live in the city with a lot of strong signals coming in every direction. I don't know what country they are in, but tech are always difficult to understand. I wish T-Mobile had a tower close. My son has a great signal for T-Mobile at his home. It's faster and they replace the Gateway without argument when we suspected a problem. Only recommend if you can't get another service.

    Yesterday I spent another 55 minutes on the phone with AT&T.... This time it was about getting help logging in to my account. No help.... The lady was nice and I think she was trying but AT&T has not given her anything to work with. Can you believe that after all that time, I could not get logged in? All the "forgot my password" features on the site are a circular loop of failure. Oh I take responsibility for not knowing my password, even through I'm not that sure it's on me. It seems like a lot of places can't be logged into if you don't do it regularly. My last round of failed communications with them was, I had fraud on my CC and that caused me to be taken off of auto-pay. It took six weeks to get back on, and I confirmed that with "the office of the president!" In those six week I could not log in to pay my bill.... Went to the store and that was just another waste of time.

    Then service at my house started failing. I have had good cel here since the early 90's and suddenly I could not make calls, had to do wifi calling which had to be re-activated on the phone almost daily. No answers from AT&T on this-- another hour on the phone, 50 minutes on chat, it's all a waste of time. Nobody knows anything, no one is authorized to help. It's like it's all planned to wear a customer down to make them stop complaining. I wrote to the office of the president again, twice, was given a name and number to call, and in a total of sixteen tries, messages left, no return calls. I believe the names (Crystal **, Jaime **) are fake, and lead to unattended voicemails. This is absolutely shameful. Shame on ATT. They don't care if a customer lives or dies, much less if they have a questions or issue.

    Sales associate was really nice and informative. Customer svc not so much. We received only 2 of the 3 phones we ordered. They claim there was a problem with the payment method. They split up the cost because one of the phones was supposed to be shipped a day later. There was never a problem with my funds! When I called 2 days later inquiring about the delay of the phone shipping they couldn't help. Called them 3 times. Excuse was system is down. When I called the next day with my ticket number they gave me I was told that I wasn't an authorized user on the account. WTF.

    Well AT&T has done it again. I paid them and stopped my autopay since my paycheck was after the 10th of this month which is my billing date. I paid it on the 13th and the on the 14th they took out an autopay. Which left my account with $6.00. Which is bullshit!!! I called them and they said that I should have it back in my account 3 to 5 business days. They piss me off. I can’t wait to pay them off and move to another carrier like VERIZON!!!!

    I went to my local Costco store and while I was in the store I was approached by a a man who was working the AT&T wireless kiosk. He asked who my wireless provider was and I told him T-Mobile. He asked how much I was paying for my service. I told him and he pulled out a tablet and made some entries. He showed me how I could save about $20 per month on my bill by switching to AT&T. Since I was pressed for time, I told him that I would discuss it with my wife.

    About a week later, I returned to another Costco and explained that I wanted to bundle my wireless service and home internet. I went through the process of signing up, I was told that my bill would be about $80 per month for two phones, plus $10 per month for each of my watches. I was also told that I could get a $1,000 for trade on my phone if I wanted a new phone. So I decided to sign up for service and a new phone. I also wanted to bundle my cellular service with my home internet. I got home later that day and switched my wife’s phone and my two watches to AT&T, I didn’t switch my phone yet as my new phone wasn’t delivered yet.

    A couple of days later I received an email from AT&T that indicated what my monthly bill would be. It indicated that I would be charged $226 for August and $156 starting in September. I wasn’t too concerned at first because the sales rep told me it would take about a month or so for the discounts to kick in. When I received my new phone a couple of days later, I attempted to call AT&T to activate my new phone, but got stuck in a phone tree loop for more than 30 minutes. Each time I made a selection I would get transferred back to the main menu. Absolutely frustrating for sure!

    After 15 more minutes I finally got a representative in the phone. I explained I was calling to activate the phone and asked about the home internet. I was told that I needed to cancel my internet service with EarthLink, even though the equipment and the installation were provided by AT&T. I was also explained that my 55 plus plan was supposed to be $80 per month and $10 per month for each watch and the internet is not included in my bill.

    I further explained that I was informed that my bill would be higher for the first couple of months as the discounts can take a couple of billing cycles to go into effect. I asked what my monthly rate would be for the two phones and the two watches once the discounts are in effect. I was told $156. I asked why was I told that my phone service was $80 and the two watches were $20, why am I getting charged $156 per month. I received an explanation that it was $10 per month for the new phone, and the rest of the charges were taxes, regulatory fees. I went ballistic and told the customer service agent that I will be calling my prior service provider and switch my service. I’m back with T-Mobile.

    The experience was awful. The customer service person was incapable to give me the reason why the payment didn't go through and I could realized only after making the payment that the reason my payments were behind was because AT&T system disconnected my auto pay, still I had to pay for the reconnection and late fees. I'm truly, truly disappointed, unsatisfied, and as soon as I find a better offer I'll be leaving.

    Salesman offered pay off of 2 phones from previous carrier if I switched service to AT&T. After months of calls to AT&T (every possible department) spending at least 90 mins on hold most of the calls, the "rewards" department does not seem to be an actual department. No reply from multiple emails, re-submitting documents on the website, text conversations on the web. Currently owed $650 from AT&T with no one there taking accountability. Expensive lesson!

    AT&T Is the Worst Company I’ve Ever Dealt With. AT&T’s customer service is an absolute disgrace. I’ve never experienced a company so intentionally difficult to deal with. They stall transfers, hang up during calls, and loop you through endless delays—all to trap you from leaving. It’s not just incompetence, it feels engineered. Their service? Spotty at best. Their infrastructure? Outdated and unreliable. Their support reps? Either powerless or trained to run you in circles until you give up. This isn’t just bad business. It’s manipulative and unethical. Shame on AT&T for treating loyal customers like liabilities instead of people. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone—zero stars if I could.

    ATT was, and still is, a nightmare. While we were looking for a new carrier and cable service. We had a visit from 3 ATT reps. It sounded like what we were looking for. We signed up for cable (ATT AIR), mobile for 6 lines (4 new phones), DirecTV, and a landline. When the phones arrived 3.5 days later, we tried to activate them. (We were promised no activation charge). The first thing we discovered was that we had minimal service and when I called customer service, we could not hear each other. 3-4 hours later, we finally got our message across. We were told the nearest tower was being worked on. The next day, I was told all the towers around me were out of service. Later that evening, I needed to use my cell to complete a program. I do to practically sit on my modem to do this.

    When I learned none of the family members were able to use the weak or nonexistent signal. I canceled everything. Then I learned they hadn't sent anything and that they do not offer landlines. Everything was canceled. The phones were sent back as well as the DirecTV equipment. 4 days later, I received the AT&T Air. I returned that unopened. Eventually, we returned to our original suppliers. However, ATT held on to one phone and refused to allow it to port back to our original provider for 2 weeks.

    Today I saw money had been removed from my bank account. After 3 calls, I finally (2.5 hours later) was transferred to a supervisor who, in an over 1-hour phone call finally set up a refund for the bill. After all, why should I get a bill for a non-working service? We still don't know if we will be billed more. Now, as to the refund, I won't get that back for at least 2 months, and instead of refunding to the account I used, it will be sent as a Visa card. I consider every thing they did as a nightmare, including their horrible AI phone help which you can't get out of and after spending a minimum of 6 four hr days on the phone with them. They are inefficient and for the refund, thieves.

    I have been a loyal customer for 30+ years but am shocked at the lack of support I got when my phone was stolen in London. I bought a new iphone but AT&T refused to reconnect the new phone saying the only way was to send me a SMS to the old phone (obviously stolen) or go in person to the store with an ID but they don't have a store in London. They literally just said "sorry" and offered no resolution at all- DANGEROUS for an international travelers and shocking in this era of global connectivity. I finally had to sign up for a tourist carrier from HolaFly to get phone service (something I think they could have offered themselves). Just absolutely appalling.

I had been on my bill became affordable to me and I contacted them about it and they got me on the cheapest plan that they could, and I still couldn’t afford it-so I made arrangements to switch to another company. I was told the date that my bill would renew, and I made sure to switch and close my account the day before that date -I got a confirmation that I was indeed canceled - only to receive another bill the very next day after I canceled.

    Att was a nightmare. I had been with TMobile for years. Service in my area wasn’t the best, I decided to change and try Att cellular. Worst mistake I ever made. The online representative mad a mistake in my company name. She add PORT not Corp, it looked like fraud. I took my ID into an authorized ATT dealer, they identified me. Thought all was good, wrong, it was never corrected at this point. I had three lines ported over and added a new line, I was told it would be 100 for the four. ATT said they would send me a new iPhone 15 for free provided I keep the service 24 months, along with a SIM card for the older 3rd line. ATT cancelled my order. Nothing never came. I call ATT. Was told it was a mistake and the order was resent to arrive in 3 days. Same story, ATT cancelled my order.

    After spending countless hours on the phone trying to resolve the issue without success ATT transferred me to TSA check list, I provided everything they ask for and was told it was good. Still never received anything. By now I’m fed up and ask for a transfer pin, the representative said I had to be with Att for 30 days, which was not true. I called and was lucky enough to get the transfer dept and transferred my phone back to TMobile. I called to pay my bill only to learn they had charged me for 6 lines I never had. The charge amount was 469.20 for two active phone lines for 51 days.

    I’ve called and try to resolve the issue and it’s impossible to get anyone who can help. They lied repeatedly and always get someone in the island who said I owe this amount. I’m sure at some point collections will get involved. Please don’t ever use Att unless you want to end up in a nightmare. I would never of believed my own story had it not happened. My bill should of been 87 dollars for 51 days not 469.20. Sad part is you can never get anyone in authority to help you. They are programmed to say the same thing over and over… PLEASE BEWARE.

    We scheduled a technician to come, who did a great job. Without giving warning or approval, AT&T sent out a sales rep just moments beforehand, who misrepresented herself as part of the "installation team" in order to gain entry into our home. She immediately began questioning family members about who our phone service is with, why we don't have it bundled with them, do we work from home, how long we have lived there, etc. until I had to abruptly intervene and ask her to stop harassing and "Get the Hell out!"

They deliberately waited three months to tell me that this bill was not paid and then proceeded to cut my service and refuse to turn it back on until said month is paid for. Every month after this supposed bill wasn’t paid, was paid in full.

We called again after the time like they advised, and another representative told us that we should have the gift in the next 6-8 weeks as the Roku soundbar comes directly from the company and it’s back ordered so will take some time, we just had to be patient. He confirmed our mailing address and everything and assured us there was nothing on our end that we had to do apart from waiting for it to arrive to our home.

    Little did we know, it was never going to because that’s their game plan. They make you wait and then when you finally call to ask what happened to it, they will tell you that oh it’s been more than 120 days and we cannot see such a reward associated with your account so we cannot do anything about it.

    Samsung actually sent me to a certified Samsung technician who discovered the fried motherboard then Samsung rejected their own technician, actually refusing to contact them and didn't trust the technicians finding, again a technician they certified! I have lost important files that can only be recovered from that motherboards memory which a company claims they can do in a few days to a few weeks depending on price plans which are both very expensive but I'm hoping will be worth it. Samsung Refuses to take responsibility for pushing out a broken phone and AT&T is backing them up!

    I will soon be without service and worse my credit will take a huge hit from this and I've worked on my credit for past 3 years. THREE YEARS of hard work down the drain! BE AWARE, AS REVEALED TO ME BY A AT&T REP in recorded conversation, S23's and S22's specifically are known to have Firmware problems and other issues including FRIED MOTHERBOARDS! I've been caused great financial and DEEPLY emotional pain with loss of personal information and soon a major hit to my credit profile that will degrade my worth for numerous things!

    I received a flyer on the mail regarding AT&T air and decided to give them a call. After hours of providing information to switch 3 phone lines and sign on for 5G internet service in my home, I was asked to provide answers to 3 security questions. First question was to add last two numbers of my driver license number and they gave me 3 choices, none of which were correct. Second and third questions had to do with places I worked and cars I owned. None of the choices were correct. Upon completion, I was told the security questions were not answered correctly and my application was not approved. When asked if they will providing the reason for denial, they said it is not a hard credit check and they don't have to give us that information. What a joke of a company.

    AT&T for years, couldn't understand the negative reviews until today. I signed up for the plan that if you do auto pay you get a $5.00 discount of your plan. Great sign up for it got my $5.00 off. That is $60.00 a year savings. Then came my auto pay after several months and now they changed the discount. Now have to give them checking account info to get the discount. What!!!! Guess that AT&T needs my $60.00 a month pretty bad, multi million dollar company with no Customer Service or Customer Loyalty whatsoever. So so disappointed in this company.

    The AT&T provided false information to get us to opt for new free phones and a more expensive plan. Upon receiving charges that far exceeded what AT&T told us and returning the phones, they continued to bill us $300 for phones we returned. After bombarding their corporate office with requests for help we were promised a refund that would take 1 to 2 months to process. They blamed everything on an authorized dealer and they were not apologetic. They provided extremely poor service all the way around.

    We've been w AT&T Cellular for 17 years and hence have a "legacy" account. That creates problems. We decided to switch to a cheaper carrier that uses AT&T cell towers and has equivalent international service but cheaper. You need a Transfer Pin to authorize AT&T to release the phone number. Because we have a "legacy" account, none of the online procedures work.

    We were sent to the local AT&T Cellular office to handle our complex problem. We booked an appointment for the moment they opened on a Sunday and got hooked up with the manager of the local store, whose name is Bobby **. Bobby did EVERYTHING he could to try to get us the Transfer Pin including hanging with us on a phone call for over 1 1/2 hours with various AT&T business services to try to get us the Transfer Pin. He advocated for us with folks within the corporate world that just weren't going to get it done on a Sunday. Bobby is going to work on this first thing tomorrow (Monday) and I'm absolutely certain that he will continue to advance our cause to transfer away from AT&T just because he knows it's the right thing to do.

    AT&T what can I say, never had I ever been so disappointed in one company in my life. Here's the short version of my very long story. I called to resolve an issue and then I was told what the best thing for me would be, and I trusted their "professional advice" I ordered "FREE" phones and a back-up internet box.... Fast forward a year, phones not free paying for 2 extra lines, so now I have 8 lines 2 of those that I have no phones for. Turns out I didn't NEED the internet box because I already had the fastest and best internet service with them according to a rep of theirs, he didn't understand why they sold me that.

    So, for a year I've been trying to get someone, anyone to help with this nightmare and nothing I've been overpaying for months, and you know what I get from most of the reps I speak to "You should have never agreed to any of it." How do I fix this because I didn't agree to 2 extra lines and when I got told that I NEEDED a back-up box, well I was trusting in the rep that was telling me, that, without it I could lose my internet, and I have to run a business/ I don't have time for hiccups.

    I’ve been without AT&T internet in West Hollywood, CA since June 16, 2025, with intermittent issues starting as early as June 12. I reported the outage immediately, and for over a week, the Smart Home Manager app kept showing the same vague message: “Service should be restored within 24 hours.” No restoration. No clear ETA. No explanation — even though AT&T support admitted it was due to a cut fiber line at the hub.

    On June 20, the app promised service would be restored by 4PM. That deadline came and went, and the status reset again to “within 24 hours.” It stayed that way for 4+ days. Meanwhile, I kept contacting support. I repeatedly told them I already had the Smart Home Manager app, but reps kept sending me the link anyway — clearly to log a fake “resolution” on their end. It’s deceptive. They also advised me to use my mobile hotspot. I did, and it caused me to go over my data cap — costing me $10 in overage fees. I also received a $63 parking ticket when a tech was working on-site and I was told to move my car with no prior notice.

    On June 24, a technician came out and couldn’t fix it. He “escalated” the issue, but no one at AT&T could explain what that meant. I got a vague text saying “our tech is fixing an issue that delayed your repair,” but the app still shows no network and no new timeline. I filed complaints with the FCC and BBB — because this is beyond inconvenience. It’s disruption of daily life, especially while I’m job searching and need reliable access. AT&T’s customer service is evasive, the app is misleading, and the lack of urgency is unacceptable.

    I was recently in an AT&T store that I have been in numerous times for purchases and customer service. I have always had excellent customer service and courteous sales reps who assisted me. Today, however, was a VERY different story. To make a long story short, I finally decided just to purchase a (long overdue) new phone. In the process of that purchase, the sales rep I had today I have never seen in this store before. He was/is a younger man I would guess to be 18-25 yrs old. He repeatedly swiped my bank card multiple times back to back, then said, "It didn't go thru" etc. I gave him a different card and he did the same thing. I asked him not to swipe my cards like that, and asked him why he repeatedly swiped both cards multiple times, as I was concerned that his actions would cause both card accounts to get locked. His response to me was, "Listen, LADY...."

    At that point, I immediately cancelled any further purchase actions and left the store. I called Customer Service and it took a lengthy phone call to get those "pending" transactions cancelled and my account corrected. This young man needs, at the very least, some serious customer service training not to mention serious home training on how to treat people in general and how to speak to people respectfully. Just for the record, I am a widowed senior citizen and military veteran who is also a very long standing loyal AT&T customer. I do not plan to ever step foot back in that store again if that person is working there.

Google put bugs in my phone so I almost had a nervous breakdown behind all this so I was told by the burnsville police to go up to AT&T so they could help you also get you another phone so I did after going up to AT&T and was ran around by them, having me go to different cities to AT&T that after doing all the run around I came back to the Eagan location because corporate told me to go back there and do you know when I return I was offered the iPhone 16plus and I was told by DJ to break my phone with the viruses in it.

    I was told to smash it. Shatter the screen so what that tell you that he gave me the iPhone 16plus for my Samsung galaxy z fold 6 because what if I would have did what he told me to do to break the phone so I got to speaking to Justice and told him I own my Samsung galaxy flip 5 phone and he told me I will get a $1000 toward my Samsung galaxy flip 5 and I could get the iPhone 16plus Mac with my monthly payment being $5.98 a month. Then he told me my iPhone plus would be $7.97 a month why come three days later I got a notification about my bill which quoted $444 what so I went and filed a lawsuit against them so after myself writing a Google review about DJ earlier he made my phone bill $444. He didn't give me any promotions. He is a vindictive individual. I have never had my phone never turned off.

    The owner well that was what it stated to me that he was the owner and he will straight this out for me that he will have someone get to me in a couple of days was offered to a VIP and I set it up and when I went all the way to Savage Mn the manager told me he had nothing for me no appointment. I was like are you kidding me so I have all my evidence that can back up everything I am saying so I will let the judge know that at&t is pulling some type of game. I don't know if an employee wrote that message on Google or who and I also have an email from this so-called owner if they turn off my phones and I have never had my phones turned off plus that will mess up my credit as well so on June 10 2025 we will be in court and I am sending all my exhibits in today.

    I also have emails and messages from one of AT&T employees told me to take them to court because that is dead wrong what that Manager DJ and if someone in AT&T wrote that they was the manager then yes I would inform the judge of how they took advantage of you knowing that Google has already stolen my identity so they want to join the pack this is disturbing.

Text a temporary code it does not work. Then I tried to many times and have to call. They verify my information all the way down to my underwear size. And then want to know what the phone number is for the watch as he list out all the phones and devices we have.

    If you're looking at my account you should see I have a 44mm watch and my wife has the 40mm. Pretty simple. NO need to verify the number. So this so called number that I do not know and have never used. Why would I know that? I just think you're training people to verify all this information that's in front of them. Why would I know that number if I have never even got it. When someone calls my cell the watch rings too. I'm sure they're not dialing this mysterious number. So now just to avoid all that aggravation I'm just getting a new one. It's way easier. And I'm done with the insurance because it's just a run around game. My advise ATT great service company.

Very unsatisfied, there isn't a good thing I can say about AT&T in comparison to T-Mobile. Not trying to be rude, just being completely honest. You know how you stay a terrible company you force people to stay when your service sucks otherwise you'd be forced to make changes and upgrade and improve.

When we realized we had insurance, they would not help us saying - we don't have anything to do with the insurance - even though we pay it to AT&T on our bill.

    Because we needed a phone and reactivated the old phone - the new phone is no longer covered - they tell us. They used to help with insurance - but now they don't acknowledge it or help with that transition. It's a scam. How do people work for a company that trains them to scam people. When you tell them you lost your phone - they are supposed to say - you can get a new phone since you have insurance - but they hide it and leave it up to you to discover your options on your own.

So now my next payment is done but my current payment is past due. Even customer service said it sounds stupid. I am a senior citizen with SSI, I do not know how this company can operate like this. I will pay and I am gone and will let others know how you operate. Very, very upset about this.

    This phone service with AT&T is the absolute worse service ever. Cuts in and out across this country traveling with AT&T and never ever had any issues with Verizon. Verizon is the Absolute best carrier of any. My family made a mistake switching cause a guy knocked on our door begged us to switch. Don't switch from Verizon to AT&T. You can't even hear a full conversation while talking on the cell phone.

    Horrible, just horrible. No other words to come to mind. We were told by the door-to-door salesperson that AT&T would cover all the switching from T-Mobile. Well, the first bill came, and it was over $400.00 when we were told that our bill would be $118.00. Called the salesperson, he stated the bill was correct, but the bill would be $118.00 the follow month. After that shock, we received a bill from T-Mobile for over $600.00. We called our salesperson again and he told us we were supposed to call T-Mobile and cancel and close the account. We were never told that, and the salesperson even stated this within a text to us.

    We filed a complaint with the FCC and AT&T refused to pay T-Mobile even though we have text messages from the sales rep that the account was not handled in the correct way and apologized. We fought AT&T until they caved but refused to pay T-Mobile directly and credited the account EVEN though when we said no, pay T-Mobile. They never did. As time went by, we started noticing that the amount due every month was higher than the last. We called AT&T. They kept stating it was fees, overages and stuff that was not mentioned by the salesperson. When we called AT&T AGAIN, making monthly calls over the bill w multiple issues, they stated a price hike or an explanation that made zero sense.

    Additionally, AT&T told us that they refunded a payment for services to our bank account at total of $445.00; stating that we stilled owed. To this day, we have no idea why they refunded multiple payments we believe. We made a three-way call from our bank and AT&T with our bank stating to AT&T that there was NO deposit from AT&T to the account. Ironically the account that AT&T said they refunded the funds to the account which was CLOSED because it was compromised approximately 2 weeks before AT&T refunded the money.

    How can AT&T refund money to an account that no longer existed? We had been on the phone with AT&T for two weeks over this, when they canceled our service, but we continued to plea our case. All we were told was that AT&T refunded the money (why would you refund funds that was for our bill for no reason is something we would like to know), and we could leave at any time since we were not in a contract. At this point we were done. We asked for our PIN and account numbers such that we could switch to another provider. They refused to give us our PIN number because they said we owe no $778. How? How did we go from owing nothing, then to owing $445.00 to owing $778.00? WHAT?

    We switch to a new provider after not having a phone for 5 days. We contacted a lawyer, and now we are invoicing/suing AT&T for all the time, money, purchasing two new phones and a watch which was already paid for all because AT&T refuses to give our PIN to switch providers. Please beware, if you are not in a contract, that provider does not own your PIN number to your phones. This was a bait and switch, period!

    AT&T is absolutely horrible! Don’t do it. I recently signed up for service and was quoted $156 a month, and I paid my taxes and activation fee before I even received the phones. My first bill is over $500 with recurring bills well over $30 a month. I received an email stating they were changing the terms of my contract, so I called several times, could never speak to a live agent, so used chat. They assured me the bill would be corrected (I even took screen shots of the messages) and nothing was corrected. Absolutely awful experience! And now I’m stuck paying a bill 3 times the cost of my service with Xfinity. Not only that but the service is terrible! Calls constantly drop and my phone switched to roaming in the middle of town and even at home. Worst decision of my life!

    On March 22th, 2025, while I was shopping at the Walmart store in Germantown of Maryland, an AT&T sales representative approached to me and asked me to switch my wireless carrier from Verizon to AT&T, because AT&T and Walmart have a big discount promotion. She said with this discount promotion I only pay $86 for five lines, and I got four free new phones if I trade in my four old Verizon phones, and AT&T will pay for whatever left on my Verizon phones. The monthly bill around $160. If I sign up for auto pay, I will get $20 discount per line, which mean I only pay around $60 per month. The data plan is similar or better than the data plan that I was having at Verizon. I agreed and signed the contract. After I received and activated the new AT&T phones, I have mailed my old Verizon phones to AT&T. Guess what? AT&T sent me the $780 bill instead of $160 bill.

    I brought the contract that I signed with the AT&T sales representative at the Walmart store to the local AT&T customer service to show it to them. They pretended to looked and checked and told me that they don't know anything about the discount promotion between AT&T and Walmart. I also called the AT&T customer service and talked with them, and they also pretended don't know about the discount promotion between them and Walmart. They said I have to pay the $780 bill. If I walk out, I have to pay for the phones in full price and that $780 bill. I called and talked to the AT&T sales representative who sold the AT&T plan and phones to me at the Walmart store, and she said she has nothing to do at this point. She told me have to call and talk to the AT&T service to resolve the problem. They were passing the problem around each other. No one took responsible for the problem that they caused.

    Beside, Verizon also sent me the final bill $3200. I submitted this final bill to AT&T with hoping they will pay whatever left balance of my old Verizon phones as they promised, but they kept quiet. I called AT&T customer service to ask them about the trading transaction and nobody know about it. That's really pain in the **. I feel so disappointed. No one can help me. I share my story to hope there no one to be their next victim of this scam. One more thing, the AT&T WIFI wireless signal is not stable. It worse than the Verizon WIFI signal.

    Has a terrible experience with AT&T sending my replacement phone to the wrong address. Called them after noticing tracking information said the phone was delivered but nowhere to be found. They said they sent the phone to the wrong address. I paid tax on another phone to be shipped to the correct address. When I checked the tracking information on the 2nd phone, it stated the wrong phone was being sent. I spent at least 3-4 hours on the phone with AT&T trying to get this problem worked out. AT&T wanted me to pay taxes on a 3rd phone, so they could try to fix their problem by sending me a 3rd phone, that apparently I am going to pay for. I refused to pay the taxes on the 3rd phone, because I felt at this point AT&T should have stepped in and did the right thing.

    After driving to several corporate stores telling the long story of what has happened to m. Julio from this store in Frisco, said if I brought the wrong phone in they had sent, that he would credit it off my account and, even though he didn't have the phone I was wanting in stock, he had contacted the non-corporate store over by Total wine and they would do it for me. I sat all day again waiting at home for the wrong phone to arrive in McKinney because that is where I live. Once I got the wrong phone, I headed back to the Frisco store to meet Julio, so he could set it up with the other store, so I could finally after 5 days and 3 hour of phone calls, I could get my new phone.

    When I got to the Frisco store, Julio was at lunch. One of the store employees got Julio on a phone, so he could tell me that he didn't say anything that I asked for? So, Julio is a liar. I went across the street to the total wine store location and talked to the guy in there and he said they don't even have a Fold 6 phone there and that he couldn't help me.

The other half went to the correct address at the beach 2 1/2 hours away. They then tell me to drive to a store that they provided me the address too and stated it was a company store which it wasn’t and 30 minutes away. Once there I learned that I was mislead and lied to. They could not do anything for me and I wasted another 30 minutes on the phone.

    2) I go to Verizon to port 6 lines cause at this point I was done being lied to. The transaction was smooth with Verizon Wireless so on the way home I stopped at UPS and returned the half of the order that I received to correct address and went on about my day. I waited 3 days to confirm that the service would work good in my area (which it does better AT&T did) so I called and canceled the 2 watches. 3 weeks go by and I get a bill for the watches. Come to find out they were never canceled.

    3) I spent an hour on the phone yesterday asking to have my final bill sent to me. Today I received the bill and alot of the iteams that were sent back were on my bill. I was hung up on 3 times today, trying to fix there mistakes. The Loyalty Agent you could tell that he could less! I had to repeat my myself a lot and he still didn’t get everything I was saying or hardly listening one of the two.

    I contacted AT&T mobile to move my brother over to my account in March. The rep assured me that it would not be a problem and that it would only increase my current bill by $60.00 to port 2 lines from Spectrum to AT&T. She held on the phone while I contacted Spectrum, I went back to the line with the rep and she told me that for one of the lines since it was a balance I had to get a new phone. I ordered the new phone and told the rep several times that both lines had a balance. She told me that she was able to port the other line and sent me a sims card to insert in the phone. I was told that I would get a visa gift card to pay off both phones. Well because the 2nd line had a balance and they could not get the phone to work I had to get another phone and a new line. So guess what? They did not tell me that it disqualified me from receiving the visa gift card to pay off that line because the line had to be disconnected.

    AT&T made the error and the only thing that mgt had to say was they would speak to the customer service professional that gave me the incorrect info and that per the guidelines of the rewards for porting over it had to be on a active line. Not only did I lose the visa gift card that was promised, I had to buy new phone and I had paid the active line with Spectrum. At this point I am so disappointed in the way that the entire situation was handled that I am looking at just paying off everything that I have with A&T and finding a different carrier. Oh and by the way my billed increased by almost $200.00 to add 3 lines. They are saying that because of taxes and other fees that is what made my bill increase.

    Get it together AT&T and stop with the excuses. All you had to do was give me correct information and I would have kept my brother under his account with Spectrum and paid the bill. And then they said, "Oh you get a discount for having AARP," well the discount was that they waived the activation fee. And then I mentioned that my brother was a retired vet, but was having some health issues and I wanted to make sure that he had a cell phone in case of emergency because I had to take over care for him. The rep said, "Well if you put the account in your brother's name because he is retired military you can get 25% off the bill." If I said that my brother has health issues and I had to take over for him, why would I put the burden of this AT&T account under his name? I understand that the reps get incentives on sales but let's be honest. Is a sale really worth losing a customer?

    It was a very bad experience and I felt like all I received was excuses and the runaround to justify why they did what they did. No one wants to right the wrong, and all I'm hearing is that we are sorry for the experience and what can we do to make it better. At this point why should I have to be the one to tell you how to correct your mistake? And then management says, "We will get the rep more training." So to me you answered your own question. Do not ask me how to make it better when my opinion doesn't matter.

To be honest, I really didn’t care for any of the services, but AT&T cell service was the worst! The cell phones arrived within 2 days by UPS. It took an act of congress to set up the service.

Which I was receiving for FREE (or already included in the price of my low monthly payment) w my original cell phone carrier.

    When I realized AT&T was not suitable for my pocket or my needs. I canceled. I was told that we would receive out $150 deposit as long as cell phones were received back within 14 days. I registered and installed AT&T cell phones (service), canceling the service and re-reinstalling my contract with my original cell phone carrier. Shipping AT&T’s two apple iPhones within 12 hours. We never received confirmation that the phones were received until we got a bill for $2400 two months later. I finally got answers from AT&T. 1st they stated phones were never returned then said they found the cell phone boxes in their warehouse but boxes were empty, insinuating of stealing the cell phones or my wife & I never returning them. Now they are attempting to charge us $300 for activation. Keep in mind the only time it was used was to activate the phone no phone calls no use of Internet.

    They can attempt to ruin my credit while they wait for this bill to be paid but they most certainly will hear from my attorney on this matter. I don’t care what salesman comes to my home, I will NEVER EVER make another purchase to AT&T in life again. They have horrible service cell and a all around horrible product.

    Bought a new Samsung S 24 ultra February a 2024. They had a promo going on any Samsung, any condition, $1000 trade in. That was 14 months ago and I still haven’t received any credits. Be careful. They don’t always honor the trade-in promotions and that’s fine. After being a 17 year customer it’s time for me to move on.

    Do not use their service. They have no logic and do not offer good customer service, I changed my account from a house phone to cell phone to keep our number when we moved out of state. AT&T sent us our final bill and our first bill to our new address for 2 months in a row. Then they started sending our bills to our old address, I am sure it was just a mistake. AT&T Customer service manager informed me that they do not make mistakes, and I must have requested this change and regardless of how it was done I still have to pay. Yes, I am so stupid that I do not know where I live, so I changed my address to my old address. What logic.

    Service is unreliable and inconsistent. Very easy to set up but unfortunately horrible compared to other options when it comes to service. Also, if you try to cancel your service you have to cancel through the specific customer support that you have your service through (I have AT&T Air).

Because I can’t even call my wife on her phone or vice versa.

    ATT service is abysmal for the most part anywhere you attempt to use in the US. Even worse is they continue to deny multiple data breaches over the past years that have caused customers many issues with credit. When you do finally get fed up enough to leave they will hit you with final bills that are multiple times the amount you actually owe. Just save yourself the trouble and don't use them.

    I have recently switched to AT&T wireless (from T mobile) through Costco and regret it very much! First, they sent us an iPhone with wrong memory size. When I called their customer support, after a LONG wait, they said I need to call back aftet 48 hours. On my second call, they said I need to exchange it to a right device. So I ordered another exchange only. Then from their confirmation email, I found they will ship it to a wrong location!

    When I called again to have them correct the shipping address, they couldn’t find my exchange order info. Finally, I succeeded canceling that order. But when I called again to order a new exchange, they said I have to wait for 48 hours! My next frustrating call took over 50 minutes to complete a new exchange order. Then I found out they attached a wrong phone number to the device. I had to call again, but they said they can’t correct it. They said I need to agree with their terms and conditions email (containing wrong information), wait to receive it, activate it, and then call again.

    After 9 phone calls (taking nearly 50 minutes each time) I am still waiting for a new iPhone. The people at their (apparently crowded, noisy) support center in South Africa are hard to understand, take a LONG time to answer a simple question, and do not have access to current, updated information!!! I never had such a horrible, frustrating, costly, and time consuming experience! I hope both Costco and AT&T look into this highly unsatisfactory situation and take corrective steps asap.

    Sorry this is long but if you have ATT you may be interested. I've got a good one for you! So we start having issues with our landline thru Att this week. Call. Put in a ticket. Can't receive calls. The guy tells me they want to discontinue those types of services so depending upon the problem they may or may/may not fix but if they do will do so by end of the day. Evening comes we can't receive or make calls so I put in another ticket online about outgoing call issues. We only really keep the services because of our alarm system which came with the house. No fix by end of day. Next day a very not nice repair service person calls our cell phone and says, "We will not fix because we received a work order from Verizon to disconnect you because you were making them your service provider." Never ever. She said call them. We did and they had no record of such a request from us or to att.

    Anyway we found another landline provider who fixed us up in an hour today with minimal expense because we had an existing bundle of services with them. You'll never guess! Xfinity/Comcast. Something is seriously wrong with their processes. What do you all think about att not verifying, validating or authenticating disconnect orders?

    We went to Costco and the sales person there talked us into going with AT&T. He said that our bill would be almost the same price as Verizon, that it would even go down in a year, that we'd get our phones for free (only would have to pay taxes on them) and that we would get my teacher discount even though we were putting it under my husband's name. Yep, none of that happened. Our bill is almost $45 more expensive than it was at Verizon. We're paying for both phones each month (we could have gotten them for free with Verizon), and the teacher discount did not work under my husband. I had to be the primary on the account. When we called the sales people they said we would have to wait two months to change it into my name. The person quoted me a price of $131.00 on the phone for what we'd be paying. That didn't happen.

    We went into the store, to talk to someone one-on-one, and the guy said that she didn't quote us taxes and taxes can be anywhere from $10 to $20. He also said that the salespeople can't be trusted. Well, hello, they represent your company. So now it's been three months, and we're waiting for the new bill to be processed. The 90 days is up to return the stuff through Costco, and AT&T says I need to wait at least two billing cycles to see my true bill. Don't go with them. It's such a headache.

Sadly, I'm leaving ATT for Verizon because of the terrible service that ATT is providing now. 1) The prices become unjustifiably high. In comparison, Verizon gives me the same plan twice cheaper. 2) It's virtually impossible to get through the customer service to speak to alive representative. 3) About ten years ago, they have literally forced me cancel my unlimited-data plan and switch to the more expensive one. 4) Their deliver partner (UPS) has never delivered.

    I wish I could give the AT&T store in Springfield, MA 0 stars for my recent experience of trading in my old ATT phone to get the newer model. I specifically chose a Sunday afternoon to go into the store as I was told it’s the slowest day. Waited 30 mins for a sales associate whom took 3 hours to process my old phone trade in to a new phone. He built up the current smartwatch promo which I decided to buy per the associates LIES of the features it had! The associate offered to transfer my line to a business account once he found out I ran a business which took 2 hours.

    Finally it was time to process the new phone which he forgot to ask me which GB I wanted, brought out the wrong color phone I stated I wanted then at second attempt brought out the right color but wrong GB and third time's (not) a charm as he stated he didn’t have the phone I wanted in the color/GB but offered me the plus version to which my common sense prompted me to ask him- can you mail me the phone I want seeings how we’ve already done all the paperwork? He had an A-ha moment “oh yes we can!”

    I retuned to this store 2 weeks later to return the smartwatch due to it not working and the manager, Carlo charged me a $55 restocking fee without explanation other than “as the customer you’re wrong!” After I explained to him the watch did not work for me (and offered specifics examples). Carlo had the least customer service skills I’ve ever encountered on my 40 years of planet Earth! I explained to him I’d be writing a review of this experience to which he angrily went onto his sales associate's tablet and started typing as the associate looked at him and nodded in code.

    Two weeks later, I am able to access my account so my intuition was right in that this vindictive and unprofessional manager did something to my account as “payback” for me threatening to leave a review. Lastly, the day I returned the smartwatch I also pointed out on my first bill that I was charged for texts and supposed to be on an unlimited data plan! The associate admitted his error (error #509). I also pointed out a $35 watch activation fee which the associate said was yet another error! I’m exhausted from this experience and have aged 10 years! Truly considering switching carriers after this atrocious experience and lack of customer service.

    I’m extremely frustrated with my experience with AT&T. I signed up for a monthly plan, but was charged far more than I was originally told.

To make matters worse, when I tried to cancel the service, I was told I still had to pay extra fees to cancel. This feels like a scam, as I was never informed about these hidden charges when I first signed up. I feel completely misled and taken advantage of.

    Beware of AT&T prepaid. I recently switched my wife's phone over to AT&T. I set up the prepaid account online and requested to port her number from Verizon to AT&T. I filled out the account number and transfer pin. I was told that the porting would be done as soon as I activated the sim. I received the eSim card in the mail with the number ported. I activated the Sim and when finished was given a temporary number. I contacted AT&T customer support to get the Verizon number that was supposed to have been ported. I had already prepaid for the entire year, $300.00. I was told that the temporary number was not in the same service area as the number I wanted to port so I couldn't port the number. The only way to port the number was to set up a new account to get the number ported.

    I was told I would receive a refund for the temporary number as soon as I prepaid for the new account for the ported number, which was supposedly already been ported. I couldn't get the number ported until I prepaid for new account. What an idiot I am. The refund never happened. I was on the phone over an hour trying to resolve this. Because they have a no refund policy I didn't have a leg to stand on even though they told me they would refund the money from their mistake. I would not recommend AT&T to my worst enemy. They are, in my opinion, scam artists. My wife and I are stuck with AT&T for a year now. I should have read other reviews for AT&T.

    AT&T has been a nightmare to work with. This started when I stopped in a independent store on Sunset Dr in Waukesha, Wisconsin. My cellphone was broke and I was eligible for a update. THey talked me into a Apple i14. Top of the line they said. This may be if you work in a office. I am a mason contractor. Meaning I work outside, get very dirty. Working with the elements of of outside, extreme heat, dust I found out this phone had issues to what I work with. On the same day, they talked me into fiber optic it was now available in our area. I was using AT&T for cell service for 15 years and Spectrum for internet about the same time. Yet back them Time Warner was my provider. Much better than Spectrum. On this day they were talking about Streaming, games,. Stuff we do not do. So after signing up for fiber optic and had an installation date. I left the store.

    Within my 14 day grace period with this Apple iPhone I was back in this store for issues with the phone, They claimed it was our WIFI and the store was using Spectrum's wifi in a AT&T store. Once I switch to fiber optic, my problems will no longer be there. Now I was working on a project that needed to be completed by a certain date per my contract. The phone was terrible, one of the towers by us was under maintenance for 2 months, This I have on a recorded conversation with AT&T. They claim you cannot record conversations. Yet in our state of Wisconsin, I can do this as long as I am part of the conversation. Which I did.

    Now after completing a job I stop back in the store on Sunset Dr in Waukesha, Wisconsin. This is an independent store, not a corporate store. I asked where was the kid who signed me up for this. I am still experiencing troubles with my Iphone, Fiber optic is not installed yet and this is after my 14 day grace period, I was not happy with this store. Excuses is all I got from them. My initial installation date was put off. I had a technician stop here to see how they were going run over 600 ft of fiber optic to this house. He said directional boring needed to be done, since he seen I run skid loaders on this 3 acre wooded parcel. He claimed directional boring need to be done in 2 areas. I understood this. So our installation date was put off. The store on Sunset Dr in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Said the day I was in there I was past my 14 day grace period, when I was in the store before my 14 days. Now not happy.

    I put in a review against this store and a rating of 1. It should be a minus -10. Now that this kid who I did not remember his name, This store employees are allowed to wear whatever they want to work like a flannel shirt. No name tag. Sp what does this kid do. Give my business a bad review when the cell service is in my name not a business name. Not only did he write a false review, he had 2 of his friends do the same thing and this is still on Google. AT&T knew we had dogs on this parcel and the only way to enter this property was with a 24hr notice. Never done. The technician shows up on a Sunday, with no call. The sub contractor, I caught on this property that was to run the fiber optic line in also gave no call. When I caught him here, I asked, "What are you doing here". He stated he was bury a line.

    I said, "You are going to trench a line to this house with no utilities marked? I do not think so. Call your boss," and left. I said do not trench on this property without the proper flagging to show where the utilities are. Knew where the gas line was because I exposed it working in that corner of the house where they were boring a line to mount the box next to Time warner's box. I was outraged when I came home and seen this sub contractor took it upon themselves and trenched anyways. They had a ticket pulled for our house, yet never called in for a relocate call to flag this property. Again I am calling AT&T. Recording everything. This order was cancelled. They did run over 600 ft of fiber optic line to this house. The only boring gone was under a walkway I found the gas line.

    They are lucky they did not blow this house up, kill our pets in the house. When I talked to the subcontractor. He stated he had a ticket number with a start date and time and since they had a start date, They installed the line. I asked him what about directional boring? I did not need it, They ran this line right down the center of a path that loaders run on. Not happening to connect to this house until a proper line was installed. This was over 30 days way past my 14 day grace period to cancel this order. Which I did. Now I come home another day, catch someone else from AT&T on this property mounting a box to the siding of the house. Again I asked where is the call to us? My order was cancelled by me. I told him to leave this property, stop what he was doing. Yet the damage was already done.

    He mounted the box, to which was never going to be mounted until a proper line was run in. This guy did stop. Yet left a mess on the walkway with tap con screws laying on the walkway. To which our dogs had to walk on. Stripped wiring laying on the walkway. They drilled holes in our foundation block to mount the line. None of this should have been done. I am a 41 year contractor, I know better.

    Now 6 months has passed, when I noticed I am $1100.00 dollars short in my personal account. When I found out is was DIRECTV charging us for service when the line was never connected to the house. That was a nightmare getting that money back. Almost gave me a heart attack. I have recording to all these conversation with AT&T. Now Ashley ---- send me an email from the office of the president of AT&T acknowledging how sorry she was for everything we have been through. She was going to look into this. Well after they seen I switch to a different provider. I heard nothing more from this lady, Her direct line to her no longer worked.

    AT&T know my story. I had our news station wanting to take on our story, yet I had to tone down my experience for televising this. Well after all we had been through service never installed, false reviews against my business, I said sorry I was not born with that ability. My experience with them was the worst I have ever had in my 41 years in business. AT&T thinks I have forgotten this, They now placed our account to a bill collector, when the damages to this property, the damages to my business far exceed my bill, I was in that store before my grace period. All documented by AT&T and all my recordings, pictures of people from AT&T that never should have been on this property without a 24hr notice.

    I placed a claim against AT&T which they have done nothing about. My directv and streaming part of AT&T. Started out at $99.00 a month. Within 6 months it raised to $149.00 a month. Within 6 months, AT&T you know my story. You know I ported 2 lines over to Verizon. The third line I could not port over because of the trouble I was having, they said porting that number would transfer to their phone. So I had to get a different number that I had for over 15 years!! Active armor they had on my phone showed back in 2010 this phone was infected with something.

    I am a hardscape contractor. I know my business. AT&T sure does not. Now AT&T you should see this review, you have very little time to contact me, before I file a lawsuit against AT&T for the damage to this house that is still not repaired, false reviews from their employees. I do not care if this is a independent store, Your AT&T logo is on that store front. You are still responsible for their actions, as I am with employees. Now again you should be reading this. You have very little time to contact me either through the 2 lines I ported over to Verizon or my email. If you think I forgot this. Not a chance.

Something that should have taken a couple of weeks has turned into an 8 month ordeal. We discussed the options with the rep, signed the paperwork back in 2024, heard nothing from them for months, then they tell us they have us on the schedule for late January 2025. When I asked the rep why it took so long, his answer "be thankful you are scheduled".

    So January comes around..we then have a call with one of their tech support reps who spends literally an hour filling out a form that should have taken no more than 15 minutes and schedule a date for the on-site service worker. Ok, so the day the AT&T service worker arrives, his question to me "Where is the hardware?" I have no fricken clue what he is talking about. Apparently equipment needed to get installed at the condo, but no one knows where it is or where it was sent to.

    So then, we have to start all over and we give the tech support rep my address at my condo so that it gets to a person. I give him my address AND HE STILL GETS THE ADDRESS WRONG! He put a condo unit number in the address field that does not even exist at our complex. Meanwhile, we receive a collection notice from AT&T for a non-payment...well... they have not fulfilled any work..NONE! Good grief!

I told the representative my family's complete itinerary. The places we would stop and that we would be at sea. I told the rep we would also have onboard full data packages but that we did not want to have any surprises with our cellular bill when returning. I needed two cellphones to be able to work while in a one week vacation in the Caribbean over the holidays. Doesn’t seem that difficult! They told me we need out of country service AND cruise service and the cost for this would be $100 each service per phone. Ok, in simple math that’s 2 services at $100 each = $200 per device. Great. $400 pre trip to have two unlimited cellphone coverage and data on this trip. Upon returning home from travel our cellphone bills ended up charging us $2,000.

    Of course this lead me to calling AT&T again. 5 hours of arguing and being passed from department to department and each new person saying I have the wrong department. Finally getting to someone in billing and their qualifications for the bill are roaming charges??? He continues to repeat the same thing that it’s roaming charges and there is nothing that he can do.

I waited for a return label when it didn’t arrive (via email) I called again. Again it didn’t arrive, instead I was charged $70.00 because it wasn’t returned. I just gave up.

    I transferred my cellular to a new company, last I signed up for a tv provider. Of course they didn’t want that equipment back. It was the equipment we got when we originally signed up with them around 2000. This was the last hold AT&T had in us. When I canceled service I paid what I was told would be the final payment. They charged me for the next month luckily I had removed my payment info. After I made multiple calls and being told I owed the bill they turned me over to collection for $96.00 (which was my monthly payment for the smallest package available) It’s still in collections. I have started an appeal because I DO NOT owe this money. We will see what happens. The bottom line….stay away from AT&T. Once they have a hold on you it’s imposible to get out from under them.

    I feel AT&T wireless engaged in a bit of bait and switch when my first bill was double the amount I was told. I had to contact them multiple times to receive the rebates I was promised and at the end of the day the cell service was terrible. I was told I could cancel the account and pay a prorated amount only to receive an enormous bill for the full month. I use a low cost carrier now that is far superior than AT&T at a fraction of the price. Save yourself the hassle and avoid them.

I called customer no service and after running cell tower tests they confirmed I needed a cell booster. They were happy to send me one if I paid to resolve their problem. Being a veteran I received a small discount. After discounts my watch cost was 8.50. When ATT added taxes and their made up fees the cost went up to 13.50. The company is all about made up fees.

    I have been a customer since before it was AT&T. Over 20 years. Each year they seem to chip away at my confidence. Pros: good coverage. Cons: Everything else. My elderly mother went into one of their locations to get a new phone and I told her to let me know what the increase in my bill was going to be. She told me the sales agent told her NOTHING. He switched my plan and we were to have the same service for less. My bill went up by over $100 a month even after I canceled all the extras he tacked onto the bill. He added the Next Up and insurance without asking me (she probably didn't know better but to sign for it). He sold her $234 worth of accessories! $234!!!! ACCESSORIES!

    The customer service agents I talk to via chat are not in the US. They are outsourced. So there is a communication barrier, and canceling this stuff has been time consuming. I can't cancel the $234. Here's what it covered: 1. Screen guard $33.75, 2. Type C USB cable $25.50, 3. Type C usb cable $18, 4. Adapter 30W $23.99, 5. Adapter 30W $23.99, 6. Phone case $52.50, 7. Car charging socket $18.74, 8. Phone case $37.50. Are you seeing what I'm seeing? She paid more than twice what this stuff would cost anywhere else. They ripped her off. Last time I bought screen guards, I got three highly rated ones for less than $10. USB cable was probably not high end. I buy the high end ones for less than that. They saw dollar signs and they took advantage of her.

    On Tuesday of this week I went to my corporate AT&T store in Valdosta Georgia shopping for a phone. I was greeted by a manager who call himself Sean. I told him I was on a limited budget and he offered me a planner for $50.99. He also told me they had a ongoing special right now where I could trade in any Samsung Galaxy phone and get $1,000 credit to use towards a new phone. I asked him like 50 times if he was sure. He said yes. I asked, "Can you port my number? I have my number now for over 15 years and I would not do the deal if my number cannot be ported." He said, "I guarantee you the number will be ported over." I said, "Go ahead and let's do the deal." He did the deal and he was having a problem porting my number over. He said give it a couple of hours and the porting will come true.

    The next morning I called the porting department at AT&T. The porting manager said, "I will call the store and give them instructions how to Port your number." I had to drive 45 minutes back to the store and when I got to the store the manager Sean said what the porting department want him to do is illegal by making up a serial number and he will not participate in anything illegal. Basically I lost my phone number of 15 years because of a lie and the fact that he wanted to sell a phone. He also lied to me that the plan he recommend, he recommended me to take $50.99 was a part of the trade-in plan.

    I call AT&T support billing department and they said he lied to me. The $1,000 trading program is only for the $60 plan. Now I'm close to $70 nearly $20 more than I was hoping to pay for 3 years, I am retaining an attorney because I lost the phone that I traded in. They can't give it back to me, stay away from AT&T.

Then when I got my first bill, it was completely wrong. I was so frustrated; I filed a report with the Better Business Bureau and then got a actual phone call from an AT&T executive named Tiffany. Who proceeded to have an excuse for everything.

    ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! DON'T DO IT! GO WITH SOMEONE ELSE!!! GO WITH ANYONE ELSE!!! The quality of your actual service (connectivity, etc.) is great--but IT'S NOT WORTH IT!!! This is the worst experience I've ever had with almost any company of any kind regarding anything in my entire life! THEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT YOU, WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE PAYING EACH MONTH, OR WHAT YOU THINK OF THEIR SERVICE!

    They absolutely seem to have a hard time staying consistent on what your contract says you should pay per month per line--and when you call Customer Service, no one is ever there to take your call initially--and you have to listen to an automated system, push several buttons, and then you have to wait for them to call you back anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes later, and after that, when you finally get through to someone human, you have to argue with someone who, often times, barely speaks English and sounds like they are based in India and initially acts like you're crazy.

    The last time I argued with them--about a month ago after asking for a supervisor, a rude representative put me on hold for about 20 minutes and then came back and said "Good News! You were right, sir!" and it turned out they were trying to charge me a past due amount that was equal to the amount that I owed that month--an amount that had already been paid, but that didn't stop them from inundating my phone with messages saying my service was about to be cut off--unless I made an immediate payment of $240.00.

    They CONSTANTLY have tried to add things to my charges--each time resulting in an almost once a month, 30+ minute phone call to them to get my bill itemized from some rude agent on their end who finally admits they were wrong... and then, EACH TIME, they try to sell you a "cheaper plan" which you "qualify" for. On TWO OCCASIONS I fell for that (the second time coming after they assured me that it would work this time)--as one of their goofy salespeople wasted over half an hour of my time---only to get a form letter 4 weeks later saying that I did "not qualify for that program."

    As for requesting a paper bill helping you to keep track of things, you can usually forget it; you can request it but they say they are not required to send it. So, they send you to their "website". Since I also have DirecTV, somehow their website is still tied into that--even though they claim not to own any of DirecTV anymore. So--whenever I try to sign in to AT&T online, it dumps me into the DirecTV website. So...I can't access ANY of my AT&T wireless account information online.

    When I told them about this in another phone call to customer service, they finally said it must be a glitch on my end, and that there was nothing they could do. So, basically, I am stuck in a contract for several more months where I get threatened--on a monthly basis--with disconnection (via text messages), whenever my bill is due...for amount(s) of money that are 2 or 3 times what my monthly bill should be. This company sucks--they thrive on people who don't keep strict track of their monthly expenses--almost like they are daring you to see if you're on top of things enough to catch them on almost a monthly basis in trying to overcharge you. Do yourself a favor and sign up with a company that's into providing phone service instead of making a game out of trying to screw people!

Part of the promotion that we took part of , was for 2 iPhones, and 2 Apple Watches (which was a bogo deal) well needless to say, that was not the case. Which month were charged anywhere from $250-$500, and the month of December we were charged TWICE with different amounts. The customer service is an absolute nightmare. Spending hours on the phone only to never have anything resolved. The customer service that employees are able to call in a use is terrible also.

I verified several times during my call that my monthly payment was going to be $0.00 and that was confirmed by the Rep. When the credits were applied they only did the trade-in credit, and 1 of the lines they did the loyalty credit but not the trade-in. When I called they said that for that line the trade-in box was received but not the phone. At the end, they gave me the trade-in value for that phone but they refused to give any loyalty credits.

    I am very disappointed with my recent experience with AT&T. When I signed up for their business service, the employee I dealt with failed to be upfront about the real prices and hidden fees. Jordan ** at Central Florida. I was quoted one price, but when the bill arrived, it was much higher due to additional charges and he lied to me during the setup process. Also all the credits he promised were not real. He sent me a PDF with the quote and I asked how much additional fees there would be and he lied about the amount. Said my first bills would be higher than the quote, around $300, but when I got the first bill it was over $900.

    When I called him, he told me not to pay, that he would resolve it. But in 3 weeks my phone service was cut and I lost a whole day of business calls. When I contacted him that my phone service was cut, he said just to get a prepaid SIM card with a new number until it was resolved. Obviously, that is not a solution when you have a business running. He finally admitted that there was nothing he can do to help me.

    I feel misled, and the lack of transparency is unacceptable. As a customer, I expect honesty, especially when it comes to pricing. If AT&T wants to keep their customers, especially business customers, they need to ensure their employees provide accurate information and stop hiding fees in the fine print. I would not recommend AT&T based on this experience.

    I was a loyal and happy member of the AT&T family for almost 15+ years last year. I had a misfortune of the loss of my phones due to a fire and theft. I claimed an insurance reimbursement and was denied so for the past year I have been paying $140 a month for no use of the phone and the no use of the service I did have the two phones that was lost on the next program. I understand that I still had to pay those phones and I had no problem with that. I suspended my service And still was being charged $140 a month.

    I switched my carrier and continued making $140 a month payment to AT&T. I tried talking to them multiple times to solve the problem and all I did was get a runaround from store to store representative to representative. I finally got my account canceled and have a small balance that is due at the end of my billing cycle for the remainder balance of the phones that I purchased from them that is not a problem. It has been a nightmare during this whole process. I made a change in my banking and payment method and a bill that was due I had set up to be paid. What they did next was taking the payment away from my previous bank, which did not have the funds for the amount that was owed. Yes, I did make a change in the payment arrangement, but they still deducted it from my old bank account and now I was charged a overdraft fee when everything was set out to be deducted from my new account. The buyer beware

    Worst nightmare of service I ever received in my life. Like dominoes, one issue led to another, starting with screwing up the order placed a week before for "additional" service at our new business "second location". Had instead, disconnected service at original location (4 years with AT&T), transferring only internet and fax line, and sent a technician out whose behavior was rude and dismissive to my office staff, and fixed only one active phone line with the fax number. Between my office staff and myself, we spent an entire Friday being transferred over and over again to numerous departments and still couldn't get service restored back at the original location by end of business day.

    At the last hour, was told by a supervisor (which I demanded at this point), acknowledged they 'screwed up' but being a Friday, required a "NEW" order for service at the location mistakenly disconnected and no tech available until mid following week. Needless to say, I called Xfinity and had internet (with a tech out) the following day. AT&T customer service is a joke and not serious enough for BOTH my office locations, but for my home service as well.

    On Wednesday, April 17, 2024, 3:26:53 PM, we were given a written quote from AT&T representative Teala, for our business. We agreed on the quote and moved our services from T-Mobile who we had been with for many years. This contract would have our company paying $180.00/month and $430.00 after 24 months. Starting with the first month, June, our bills were $171.38, $688.28, $323.93, $312.13, $337.31, $337.31 (December). We made several calls to AT&T during this period and was told that adjustments would be made, and they would give us credit, none of which happened. Below is a summary, from the representative, of our most recent call AT&T Business Communications <AssistEdgeASKS@amcustomercare.att-mail.com>:

    "We discussed your mobility bill and how you were told it would be roughly around $180 for everything with a email quote to back that. We went over the correct pricing and everything included and came to the conclusion that the quote was false and I went over the lowest possible option for the bill would be $240 before taxes including everything after we corrected the plan on 4 lines and submitted a case to get the internet air discount all in one. To help with the current bill and the misinformation we applied a credit to the current balance of $337.31 down to $151.16 for this bill but it will be $240 + taxes going forward if you keep the service. We also applied an additional $700.00 in credits for credits promised back in July."

    The bill changes monthly, which we can’t get an explanation on. To be told months later that the original quote was “false” is unacceptable and misleading. AT&T needs to make this right.

We knew uBreakifix could repair it, and after having to escalate our complaint, AT&T finally agreed to let us bring in for repair. uBreakifix said it was an easy repair and it was repaired perfectly, in 2 hours!!

    AT&T has locked my cell phone and refuses to unlock it. Salesmen in-store and customer service failed to disclose to me their policy of requiring service for 6 months until after I purchased service with another carrier but couldn't use it because my phone was locked. This lack of disclosure about the 6-month service requirement has caused me significant distress and financial inconvenience. I meet the requirements listed on their website to unlock it. I requested an unlock but the male tech support refuses, was rude and he yelled at me. The store employees said I will have to purchase another wireless phone. I have a family and have been without cellular service for a week and customer service knew my intention to end prepaid service with AT&T. I've paid for service with another carrier but can't use it.

    We switched to AT&T from Verizon. We worked with a representative named Marcus at the Main St. location in Meridian, ID. Marcus showed us the wireless plans, told us about available incentives. We signed up for the lowest cost unlimited plan, or at least we thought we did. Marcus told us we would each receive a $100 gift card after a few months.

    We were surprised when we received our first bill and it was much higher than what we were told it would be. We finally figured out that there was some sort of initial charge we had not been informed of and he had signed us up for a higher level plan than we had chosen. We thought, okay it was just a careless accident on his part and we straightened it out ourselves on line. About 4 months later we had not received the gift cards. I called Marcus and asked him where they were, he told me he would call around and see why they were held up, he never denied saying we would receive them.

    A month or so later we had still not received the gift cards. I started calling AT&T customer service and of course I was shuffled from person to person each one telling me the next person was the one I needed to talk to. Eventually one of them told me there was no incentive that I qualified for but the local store could give us $200 worth of credit on our monthly bills, that seemed fair to us. I finally spoke with the regional representative who told me he would call Marcus and remind him it was important to be sure to carry through on what he had promised his customers. That was about a month ago and we have nothing and have received no credit. We were upgraded without our knowledge at our expense, we were outright lied to about the gift cards and I was given a massive runaround by customer service. I'm not happy about the situation but I don't have any more time to spend on it.

    On October 02, 2024 I visited the AT&T store located at 1706 W. Tennessee St. Tallahassee FL. I was looking to trade in my Z-Flip-4 phone for an iPhone, the sales rep stated that there is an $830 trade for my phone to an iPhone, with that in mind I agreed to the upgrade. The paperwork started. I walked out with an iPhone 16 Pro, case, and screen protector. I was told I needed to turn in my Z-Flip phone within 30 days (which gave me time to move files, etc. from my old phone to the new one). October 16, I returned to the store to turn in my old phone. It was then I was told the $830 promotion was no longer available in the computer, however; the sales rep made a phone call to Firstnet/AT&T. I was present during the call as the call was on speaker. The outcome was that they would honor the $830 credit spread over the 3 years ($23.06 per month) and it would take several billing cycles for everything to work out. I walked out feeling satisfied.

    On January 7, 2025 I went back to the AT&T store as no part of the $830 credit was not applied. Another phone call from the sales rep to Firstnet/AT&T, this time I was told there was no documentation of the $830 promotion, although the sales rep did remember the all conversations but stated he could do nothing more on his end and the issue was closed on the AT&T side. I would like to point out, at the time I took possession of the new phone $830 promotion was in effect. I feel that this is deceptive and poor business tactics. After researching this in the internet it seems this same thing has happened to others when dealing with AT&T. **

    I did not realize that prepaid phone sims and cards from AT&T are truly a promised contract that you must fulfill. First off, when you but the sim card you must pay $30 to activate it! Then after that you must pay $30 every 26 days in order to have your prepaid service active or else they deactivate it you have to pay to activate it again! This is opposite of what prepaid is supposed to be. I can not be more disappointed in AT&T for this false advertisement for prepaid. The card you buy directs you to a website that is a hundreds of paragraphs long on what you are agreeing to.

    When you buy the sim card and you don't keep it active by at least 1 payment every 3 months they will deactivate your sim card you purchased and make it useless thus forcing you to buy one in the future if you use them again. I will never use this service again nor any other cell phone companies that practices in this way. They should not be advertising as prepaid because it actually is a commitment that a customer has to keep unknowingly unless they read the hundreds of paragraphs that is available online att.com/prepaidterms.

    I have had good cell coverage, but when calling their customer service to see if my phone was unlocked, they said it would take 1-3 business days to figure this information out (I have NO idea why it takes so long). 5 business days later, I got an email saying my phone was locked. I called to see how much was owed on it, and customer service said to disregard the email, my phone is unlocked. As it turns out, it was locked, making me go two days without phone service.

    On another call, I was informed I had a $9 credit but was overcharged $48. One rep said he didn't know what was happening and would reverse the charge, then transferred me. The next guy told me that there was an "overcharge," which was reversed 2 hours after it was changed, but I wasn't informed that I had an unpaid balance. Two days later, I got a late fee notice and was told that the reversed charge was supposed to be there, and I now owe a late fee of $41. Horrible customer service!!!

How is one line signed up but not the other 4. Why would we have that service on only one? They said that it has to be an add on at the time of purchase and I didn't ask for the addition. Well, guess what? I didn't ask for it on the 1 line that has it either but it has it. How convenient for them. And why can no one seem to answer my questions about it?

So I come back the next day & the manager says that I told the girl the day before that I dropped my phone & that is why the camera protector would not stay in place. First of all, I never dropped my new phone nor did I ever say to the salesperson that I dropped my phone. She put the camera protector on my phone for me right after I purchased it, & it never stuck properly. It fell off on its own that same day. So she not only put it on wrong, she then lied to her manager trying to blame me. They did not replace it. I had to buy a new one, but insisted on putting it on my phone myself.

I’m exhausted and I’m tired and I’m why frustrated I could literally cry because I feel like I’m going in circles I’m going backwards and I never get anything resolved.

    In fact it just gets more messed up and every agent tells me a totally distant reason as to why the issues are happening (on their end). I even had a rep tell me to disregard the text about losing my credits which came so fast after just resolving them that when I called in she got angry with me telling me she assures me to disregard the text. It wasn’t meant for me and now I’m being told due to me not rewinding to the text I’m ineligible for the credits I had been promised. This is crazy that they are allowed to remain open and take money from people and lie and do things however they choose to which is always unethical and I would recommend this company even if you offered me a million dollars- I would never want anyone to ever have to go through all I’ve gone through.

    I have emerged from a nearly 3-week process of calls and face-to-face meetings that consumed several hours per day. I started the journey with confidence and peace of mind. My spirit and well-being declined as I got lost in a series of mistakes, deception and fearfulness. In the end, I had to accept defeat and take whatever the AT&T would give me. Maybe you can learn a lesson from my travails and avoid similarly bad results. Or maybe you will get the same bad results but feel solace knowing that at least one other person has deeply suffered at the hands of the phone company. My sad story follows.

    Happiness. Three and a half years ago I moved to a foreign country. I found a phone company that catered to English speakers and started service. I had a local number. And I kept my USA number so that people could easily contact me. It was a 917 New York City number that I had for over 20 years. I stopped paying AT&T for this number and they “ported” it to my foreign carrier. I still had an AT&T account because I pay the mobile bill for two of my kids. Having two numbers on one phone was ideal. If you are a friend from the USA you can call my old number. If you are a friend from my new country, you can call my local number.

    Turmoil. I marched into the AT&T store my first day back in the USA, bought an iPhone 16 and requested that they "port" my old 917 number to my new phone. That is when confusion and misrepresentation started. AT&T said "No problem. Wait 24 hours and it will be done". It wasn't. Then I was told it would take another 24 hours because the phone company in the other country would not release the number. I called that foreign company and they said that they had released my 917 number to AT&T. I called AT&T and they said that they had discovered that the address was incorrect on my account. This was surprising because my wife's phone worked and had been accepted by AT&T. Why wasn't my phone getting set up?

    I made 7 visits to the AT&T store in Highland Park and got to know everyone who works there. They were powerless and were shut down, misdirected and deceived by other AT&T departments. The "porting department" told them that they never allowed numbers to be ported out or back. They accused me of lying. Luckily my wife's phone worked given that I had lost all cell service. I made between 16-19 calls to various AT&T numbers and was always brushed off. I asked to escalate the issue with top management. They sent me to the insurance department. Every call required hours of navigating through menus and being on hold for long periods of time. No kidding, each call could last up to an hour or more.

    Surrender. I received an email from AT&T telling me that my service was cancelled. I walked into the AT&T store and got a new number. The store people were sympathetic and happy to accept my defeat. I had saved my wife's number and could not save mine. For the last two weeks, I have been updating dozens of apps and informing friends and vendors of my new contact info. Very difficult because security protocol frequently requires a confirming call with the number they have on file, which has been shut down.

    Perseverance. My father and mother worked at AT&T. My first job out of business school was AT&T. I feel some loyalty to this bureaucratic giant. My friends have plenty of bad stories about Verizon, T- Mobile etc. I am reasonably sure that I can navigate myself back to a happy connected life. But the truth is that I took a loss and the bureaucratic Gods of AT&T have won. Just to demonstrate their complete dominance, they sent me an email today. It says something like here is a summary of the results of our recent interaction. And then, the letter is blank but signed by an AT&T manager.

After the transfer - My insurance was taken off not only my 2 devices but my girlfriend’s 2 devices on the previous line as well. ATT told me I couldn’t have insurance because it has to be there from the first 30 days. This took 6 - 1 to 2 hour phone calls to get straightened out.

    Then the next bill was extremely high at $220. I called ATT and was told I would get a credit for the one month and that would bring it down to 180. The representative told me, "your next bill and the following ones after will be 130 plus taxes and fees. This mistake was due to you being on a 1 gb plan instead of unlimited. I promise this issue will never happen again." Fast forward a month. My bill is $812.

    I was still on the 1 gb plan and I have called over 15 times in the past month. I literally got hung up on 5 times and put on hold and they never came back 5 times. 5 different times ATT tells me they are ,"creating a case" but can’t tell me the case number because it takes 3 business days to generate. So when I call back they ask for a case number and I can’t give it to them and they can’t look it up. A rep told me a few days ago my bill will be $160. Perfect. But it’s not updated on the account. And my bill is late and still showing I owe $710 . I cannot even begin to fathom how anyone can run a company with such horrible customer service. I’ve never seen anything so disorganized in my entire life. Go somewhere else. Even if it’s twice the cost I assure you that would be a great decision.

Our bill was suppose to be less each month, we were told to drop off our old phones to an AT&T store once we received our new phones, and our current phones would be paid in full for transferring service. Went to drop off the phones at AT&T and were told we were mislead and we have to mail back the phones and we should have received boxes. We were told we could have kept our current phones, we were told our bill was the same as our previous provider, and were told we were “scammed”. We waited for 4 hours and never spoke to an AT&T representative. A nightmare to transfer back to previous provider. Stay away, pay a little more if needed. This was just a ridiculous experience.

I thought something would turn around..,it used to not be this way but it is HORRIBLE! There is no way I should have to invest HOURS trying to speak to a customer service supervisor! One who speaks ENGLISH THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND.

    NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU SAY CUSTOMER SERVICE REP, YOU ARE TRANSFERRED TO ANDY! THE MESSAGE THERE IS CLEAR! ATT IS SAYING, "WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU AS A CUSTOMER, ALL WE CARE ABOUT IS GIVE US YOUR MONEY AND GO AWAY!" I don’t know what has changed with them, but it’s more than I can bear!

    I just purchased an Android tablet S10 from the AT&T store. An hour later when I got home, I decided I did not want it. Because I want the iPad Pro-13. I called AT&T right away to cancel the order, I spoke with 3 representatives, and I was told I could not cancel because the order was already being processed to ship. That is a serious inconvenience for the customer because this is Thanksgiving eve, and tomorrow is Thanksgiving and nothing is going to ship out between tonight and Thursday November 28th, 2024. I have been with AT&T over a decade, I will certainly take my business to its competitor. I wish, I could give AT&T zero star. The tablet will be shipped to their store, now I have to wait to return the tablet at the time. I do not want it!!!!

    In a small town in Texas AT&T was great. I talked my daughter into switching but she is in Albuquerque, NM. There is NO 5G service here, anywhere. I don't understand how a city as large as Albuquerque doesn't have 5G from AT&T, but T Mobile and Metro PCS does.

    Horrible customer service. I opened new lines of service and the service has been terrible. When I look at my area coverage map it shows I have 5g and I struggle to even make a call so we were deciding to even stay. Come to find out they won’t even take our trades in anymore and we are with firstnet. What a way to help you law enforcement. At&t is a joke.

    I moved to the mission district San Francisco, on Valencia street in the last week of October. In my previous apartment, I was using AT&T Internet and wanted to shift the AT&T Internet device in my new apartment. It did not work because of some wiring issues in the building. AT&T arranged a visit of technician to fix it on October 28th.

    The appointment was at 9 AM, but scam started around 8:55 AM, there was a person on my door in AT&T uniform and introduced as Yosef **, manager from AT&T, and said the technician was coming in some time. Then he asked me what carrier I was using for the phone; I told him T-MOBILE. He said his reason to appearing along with technician is that I have been a loyal customer of AT&T Internet for 6 years. AT&T is offering me reduced price if I bundle my internet and all the phone line.

    I told him that I am not interested to bundle all my phone line with my internet. He insisted that he have special pricing and he will let me know how much it will cost. He mentioned that to access my internet account, he needs the Driver’s license I provided. Then he mentioned that to provide the reduced price deal he needs to check the model of my and my girlfriend’s mobile phone and IMEI numbers to give a collective price. I gave him the phone make and model and IMEI nos. He said it would be around $250.

    I told him I do not want any deal or offers he is offering as it was way too much than what I am currently paying to T-Mobile so I am not interested at all. He tried hard to convince me and also mentioned that it would be one bill for all and we wouldn’t have to change our phone numbers. He even called his manager to convince me. My answer to him and his manager was NO. Before leaving, he gave me his phone no. and told me that this was a special price and this offer is only valid for 15 days but he could lock this offer for us for 15 days. If I would be interested in future, I could call his no. and ask for the same deal and then he left.

    On November 14th we received a bill of $266.30 in my mail box from AT&T. I was surprised to see the bill it was for the new AT&T phone lines. Without my consent, he used my information and created 2 new phone lines under my and my girlfriend's name. I have called him multiple times on his phone and tried to call AT&T and running back and forth multiple times in different stores in San Francisco and Daly City for last one week seeking help to find this fraud and close the account. But no one was able to help me, also I came to know he used a wrong email to create the account as he didn’t have my email.

    AT&T stores told me they can not close the account as the phones are not active, also email mentioned in the account is wrong and I don’t have 4 digit pass key for this new fake account. Today Nov. 23rd I went to police station and filed a complaint against this fraud case. Also, I have registered a case in AT&T global fraud management. I would like to share this review for the people to understand how AT&T sales team is doing their scam. Please be really careful and do not let this salespeople in your house, usually they come with technicians.

    I attempted to change my carrier service to ATT and after 18.5 hours on the phone was left with no service for 5 days and met with very poor Customer Service to remedy the problem. It took another 3.5 hours to retrieve my transfer pin so could change to Verizon who had me up and going in 20 minutes! The kicker is the ATT bill received for $137.00, after 2 hours disputing the charges was told “I owe them”! Attorney General and Better Business Bureau... here I come! Buyer Beware!!

    I have been an ATT customer for 25+ years. My cousin passed away on 9/24 and I have been trying to return the iPhone that she purchased under installments in August. For almost 2 months I have spent countless hours either on hold or put in phone loops at ATT. No one knows what to do for me to send the phone back. I was told by a rep to take the phone to an ATT store and they could ship back.

    ATT store told me that they could not ship back and that they could not print off a shipping label. I was advised to go to a UPS store and give them her account number and they could print off a shipping label. UPS store stated that I needed to come with the label. I have tried to do the right thing with no help. I can’t even properly grieve the loss of my cousin for the hold times, the transfer times, the driving in car to stores. Your process for something like this is broken. All I need is a shipping label. Your reps have no sympathy or empathy for something like this.

    Formal Complaint Regarding Billing Discrepancies, Unfulfilled Promises, and Service Issues. AT&T Customer Service, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a series of billing discrepancies, unfulfilled promises, and unsatisfactory customer service that I have encountered since switching my account to AT&T on July 14th.

    On that date, I switched from T-Mobile, bringing over 4 lines, and added an additional line, totaling 5 lines with AT&T. The agreed-upon terms were as follows: Monthly cost: $150 for all 5 lines, including the Unlimited Premium Plan. Reward Cards: $100 visa card for each line switched to AT&T, to be received upon activation.

    However, after two billing periods, I have yet to receive any of the promised reward cards, despite following up multiple times. Furthermore, the billing has not matched the terms we agreed upon: 1. First and Second Bills: I was charged the agreed-upon amount of $150 per month, but no cards were issued for the lines switched. 2. Third Bill: My bill unexpectedly totaled $256. When I contacted customer service, I was informed this charge was due to the “Unlimited Premium Plan.” However, this was not what was agreed upon at the start. I was then told I could switch to the Standard Plan for a lower cost.

    3. Standard Plan Billing: After switching to the Standard Plan, I was assured my next bill would be $90, which I promptly paid. Despite this, I noticed my upcoming bill is now $230, which contradicts the agreed-upon price of $150 for the Standard Plan. 4. Unresolved reward cards: To date, I have still not received any of the $100 gift cards promised for each line switched.

    Despite numerous attempts to resolve these issues through customer service, I have been met with no clear resolution. I simply expect AT&T to honor the terms of the agreement and ensure the following: My bill should not exceed the agreed-upon price of $150 per month for 5 lines under the Standard Plan. I should receive the $100 reward cards for each of the 5 lines switched, as was promised. The customer service team should address this matter promptly and effectively.

    I request that this issue be escalated and resolved immediately. I would appreciate a timely response confirming how AT&T plans to rectify these issues and fulfill the promises made to me at the time of the switch. Failure to resolve this matter will leave me with no choice but to pursue other avenues for resolution, including regulatory complaints.

    Unbelievable. After looking through the plans offered I decided on one of their pre-paid plans for my wife and I. When I got to the check-out I was informed that something went wrong and directed to call a specific number. My call was transferred through several people and I was directed to a AT&T store (30 miles away) where I was given a different number to call.

    After several hours I was told that everything was corrected and my phones were being shipped. I then received a message that they wouldn't ship one of the phones because T-mobile, which was not the current provider, wouldn't released one of the phone numbers. Another hour or so with customer service. Once I received the phones I spent another 3 hours trying to get them activated and was directed to a different store (also 30 miles away). I called that store and was assured they could help. A very friendly and patient person there spent 2 hours on the phone calling several of his contacts (some of which were the same customer service numbers I had called before) and was eventually able to get the phones activated.

    Rep over the phone outright lied about sending apple watches that would be paid for with "credits" that did not exist. Rep stated multiple times that the cost of the watches would be immediately offset by credits and to please sign the financing for the watches in order to process the order. Rep then asked for me to pay the taxes on the watches as that was the only thing that these "credits" would not offset.

    Found out today while fixing the account issues that she created when improperly bringing on the new line (which was the only reason I had called), that there were no credits and I had been straight up scammed into financing 3x apple watches on my plan. Customer services solution was to offer multiple opportunities for me to simply PAY for the watches anyways at a slightly discounted rate. Kept implying and using language that I HAD LIKELY MISUNDERSTOOD!!! Would not listen to the recorded call and acknowledge that their rep lied. Offered to have feedback sent into their inhouse team to have the issue addressed. This is code for "please leave your negative feedback internally so that we can hide it from the public."

    **Do not trust anything a representative says to you over the phone. They lie. They then wasted HOURS of my time pushing a product that I did not even request. Later they then implied that the fault was possibly mine and that I may have misunderstood. They then gave me the wonderful offer to simply pay them for the items anyways like that was a favor. I now have to go out of my way in the middle of yet another work day to send back the items. They acted like refunding me the sales tax I was made to pay was some sort of special favor. And in the end with her deepest condolences and apologies offered to give me a $25 credit for the inconvenience. Absolutely ridiculous...

    We have been with AT&T mobile service for almost twenty (20) years. We have four (4) devices. However, after this long term relationship we are looking a dissolving the connection. This is why. Our AT&T plan was setup as: four (4) devices with unlimited talk and text with nine (9) gig monthly data (with rollover). For that service provided we paid a monthly fee that varied very little. In July of 2022 our monthly statement increased five (5) dollars. When AT&T was contacted the reply was 'you are on an old plan that is no longer offered'. The increase is keep this plan you pay the increase. OR you can upgrade to a new plan. If we upgrade to a new plan (that does not fit our needs) the monthly cost would increase about fifty ($50.00) per statement. "We accepted the increase is stayed with our current Plan".

    Now, Two (2) years later August 2024, our statement arrives with another increase. When AT&T customer service is contacted about the increase, we are told: you are on a grandfather plan. If you want to keep this plan there is an increase. So, AT&T increased of monthly fee in 2022 because it was an old plan and now our plan is increased again because it is an old plan. I call that double-dipping customers. AT&T increases our plan cost because the plan fits the customers' needs, not AT&T's bottom line. This is how AT&T treats their loyal customers. We were told again that we could move to a new plan but when calculated the new plan has a much higher cost with NO additional services. Best we can see is AT&T wants it their way or they will just increase customer's monthly statements. We are currently looking for a different wireless provider that is more customer caring. AT&T does not appear to be a customer caring company.

    AT&T disappointed me in a big way, and I will never use their cell phone service again. Their administration is really poor, and if you've given them a credit card number to debit each month, be very careful. I received conflicting and information from different people, and found their Customer Service really lousy and irritating. Do they even train the people?

    In September, after almost thirty (30) years as a loyal AT&T Wireless customer, AT&T decided to raise our rates by $20 a month. The explanation provided stated this additional fee was applied to all "Grandfathered-In" accounts, and intended to pay for their new 5G service. However, our cell phones are not on AT&T's 5G service. So, in reality, this additional $20 monthly fee is aimed at long-term customers, primarily senior citizens, to have us pay for a service we don't yet use.

    At this, I informed AT&T Wireless of my intent to switch cellphone services to another wireless provider. Now, after canceling their service, AT&T is billing me for $153.68 for the next full month's wireless service. They claim this is because their services were cancelled one day into the new billing cycle. So, AT&T Wireless is targeting senior citizens for rate increases, then billing them for an extra full month when we cancel their services. WHAT A DEAL!

    I have great respect for dedicated retail consultants, especially those I know working for AT&T/|Prime Communications. However, after being lied to by customer service regarding her employment with the company and receiving no response following an apathetic apology from the Office of the President, despite submitting evidence of what I endured at the hands of one of their employees, I will never return as a customer.

    This employee’s harassment was severe. Her actions led to a severe sprain in my foot and ankle, resulting in lost wages since I couldn’t work for the rest of the season. She intentionally triggered flashbacks by slamming doors and confronting me at my door, putting me in fear for my life and my children’s safety. She even went so far as to make a false report with Child Protective Services.

    I eventually had to move because of her, yet she lied to the courts, stating that I was the reason for the delay in my relocation. When the actual reason was due to scheduling conflicts with inspections by the borough. She even conducted a background check on me—not for any service-related purpose, but to reach out to my ex and support him in court. She manipulated the judges, fully aware of my severe anxiety and status as a disabled veteran with a high mental health rating. She labeled me as “bipolar” to further discredit me, though I live with Borderline Personality Disorder, a deeply painful mental illness. I don’t just “switch off”; I hold onto these impacts for weeks, months, even years. If AT&T wants to recover their money, they’re pursuing the wrong person. I’ve endured more than enough, and this experience has made it clear I deserve far better. To clear any confusion, this employee is a former neighbor.

    I've been a customer of AT&T since 2010, I've always paid my bill on time and have had several upgrades over the years without any issues. In September I got an offer to trade in my wife's and my iPhone 12 pro's for $1000 a piece. Normally, I would sell our old Iphones for several hundreds of dollars on eBay and pay off the new phones over time, but this promotion was too good to pass up, so I signed up for it on 9/23/24. So I sent in our trade ins with the box and shipping label that they provided. After waiting over a month for credit, I decided to call AT&T to see what the hold up was since I just got a bill for close to $300 dollars.

    The first agent I spoke to said that the plan I have was not eligible for the $1000 per phone trade in. I told him I changed my plan on 9/23/24 and have the emails from them to prove it, he just kept repeating that my plan isn't eligible for the $1000 trade in and transferred me to his manager. His manager repeated the same thing and told me that I would only get under $200 for my trade in. Why would I ever agree to that when I could have sold them on eBay for much more?! They were in perfect condition!

    I told him that if you’re not going to honor our agreement then send me back my phones and I’ll return the iPhone 16’s and we’ll call it a day, he then informs me that they can’t do that since been a month and a half. I KNOW I specifically signed up for the $1000 trade in offer, now AT&T are not honoring the agreement, this totally feels like a bait and switch. They have my old phones and now they’re not giving me the credit on them, this all seems illegal. I will NEVER use AT&T again!
