AT&T Internet and Phone Bill Credits

Promised 500 credit towards purchase of phone over 1000. Purchased I phone and paid the difference. To this day no credit has been applied towards this phone (one time courtesy only with promise it will correct in 3 cycles. It did not.
Internet promised a monthly bill around 20 instead of 40. So far since this promise one bill was 128 and this month 90 and each time I call promises it will adjust when in fact it has not. Resolution credit 13.89x2 for Iphone with guarantee it would continue to be credited until 500 is reached. Internet credit account in amount of 157.04 (87.04 from previous bill and 70 from current bill). With guarantee moving forard bill would be around 20 a month as promised.

Claimed loss: 13.89x2 for now on cell service and 157.04 Internet

Desired outcome: Credit phone bill for missing credits of 13.89x2 and guarantee to credit until 500 promised amount is reached. Internet credit of 157.04 as well as a guarantee moving forward bill for internet would be around 20 a month as promised.

AT&T Customer service doesn't exist with this company

Spent over 25 minutes going in circles with their automated "customer service" on the phone. Kept asking to speak to a real person and instead they would start the whole automated questions and answer thing all over, and over, and over. I wanted to scream. Tried on line as well and with the phone app and still have not been able to speak to anyone who can help me resolve this. Will never sign up for anything with AT&T again.

Chatted with a AT&T rep and they wanted to CHARGE me, just to talk to some C/S rep Last Month I went to the local AT&T store to see if they (AT&T) could save me money if I combined my phone service with my internet service.

I signed up for mobile phone service a year ago. Last July my account was hacked and 4 lines and devices were added to my account.

Now keep in mind, for 9 months our phones won’t call out, won’t text out and we can’t receive calls half the time.

I think a 2 star is generous. When it comes to them demanding payment, they’re draconian about it, when it comes to calling customer support.

This has been the worst customer service experience I’ve ever had. AT&T makes promises to attract new customers, but in my experience, those promises were not honored.

AT&T Not fixing my traditional landline service since May 8th, 2026

I haven't had landline service since May 8th. I have been given dates it would be fixed but it never is. Dates given, June 11th, June 30th at 4 pm, Aug 31st and Oct 9th. It still isn't fixed. I'm being charged for no service. I'm told it will be credited when fixed. When? I've reported it to the Cal Utility Commission twice and the FCC to no avail.

Desired outcome: I would like the service fixed and get a refund for payments deducted. I feel they are postponing fixing the line until the FCC ruling in 2027

Is AT&T Legit?

AT&T earns a trustworthiness rating of 94%

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds AT&T to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 29% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, AT&T is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with AT&T, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

We found clear and detailed contact information for AT&T. The company provides a physical address, 15 phone numbers, and 2 emails, as well as 5 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.

The age of AT&T's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

Att.com has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Att.com has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

We looked up AT&T and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • Despite a high level of trust, our investigation found issues with AT&T's service, including poor customer service, lack of accountability, and responsibility to resolve complaints. Customers may face long wait times for responses, receive generic or unhelpful answers or no response at all. Only 29% of 2193 complaints were resolved.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to AT&T. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.
