AT&T visa card promotion

We switched from Prism to Direct TV. Direct TV was offering a $300 Visa card to switch. Since we had AT&T phone service we went into the AT&T store to see what they would offer to bundle the Diret TV. They said their promotion was $200 but they would honor the Direct TV offer of $300 to switch.
They said it would take 6 weeks to get.
After 10 weeks we contacted AT&T to see where the VISA card was. They said the store input the info wrong and they wouyld only give us the $200 card per the AT&T promotion.
It has been many weeks now and still no VISA card in any amount.
This is definately a bait and switch promise - don't fall for any AT&T promotions!

AT&T unethical behaviour

I called to set up services and was told that I could not do to a past due bill. I was told they saw one past due balance of almost 100 dollars. I paid the bill and then got the run around for three days. When I spoke to another rep. I was told that there was another bill found over 300 dollars. Instead of telling me about both accounts they lied so that I would pay one and still not give me service. I was then told i would have to pay that bill before service. Just one big run around and no honesty. I should have been told up front about both bills, not one and then the other.

AT&T customer service

5/30/19 today I tried to port my phone number to Verizon, after leaving at&t less than a month ago. Inside of 24 hours I switched back from straight talk because you can't use a personal hotspot on their data plans. Now after switching, with no problem .. keeping both my number and phone, I'm told at&t has locked my phones . They claim my account lapsed. both bills before and afterwere paid, no hitch there! 1st call this date also..You still owe 1 payment on wifes number..2nd call never answered 20 mins on hold waiting..3rd call talked 2 mins explaining issue parked on hold..4th call afore mentioned account lapse..then I hung up on call 3(my wifes phone} after being on hold another 24 minutes. This isn't the first time I've been met with ignorance by this company.They scrambled home and cell accounts and billing accounts less than a year ago.. 60 days, on the cells . the home will be much faster! oh p.s the case numbers that started this round of b.s. are [protected] and [protected].

It would seem that complaintsboard.com will not let you print "my complaints" why is that ?

7/20/19 Received a paper bill in mail, same totals attached too a threat of collection .However it listed a total of 5 numbers on the bill. I only have 2 lines, called the billing department again, after calling one of the numbers who claimed he (Tom ) had had the number since 7/2014 could not reach the other 2 numbers . Customer service told me that was not my final bill it was 112.00 plus 5.00 late charge, 117.00 total and that I had only 2 lines . Now I'm waiting for her too send me my final bill . She was adamant that the one I had received was not my final bill . Remember, this all started with a promise that there would be no charges if I switched back inside of 60 days . I'm out 149.00 dollars for a refurbished phone, am being extorted for another 117.12 or is it 118.12 . and still my other phone is locked, remember that 1?.

7/13/19 Received email stating that I had a past due balance as well as a current one. Account was cancelled on 6/10/19 and both numbers were ported too Verizon. Also I had purchased a refurbished phone from Best Buy because of mine being locked for 60 days . aforementioned b.s. . Now, my billing cycle (usage) runs from the 2nd of month thru the 1st of the next month, I am billed in advance on the 21st of the month . Now they bill me for 66.59 past due and a total of 118.12 . How does that work, I should have a credit for the 11th thru 1st, not a bill

6/4/19. Surprise, this time I was sent an email telling me that “my phone was on someone else’s account “ through all of my dealings with these buffoons one thing has remained constant. Their lack of integrity is clear, it starts with the faux typing on the automated answering system. And I quote again “ If you switch back in 60 days or less there will be no re-activation fee”. They’ll just tie your phone up for 60 days so they can sell you more shoddy service. Next call is to the Attorney Generals fraud division, I held my end of the bargain.

AT&T Directv

I called Direct TV to TRANSFER our service from Stockton to our vacation home in Volcano. This would entail cancelling our service at the vacation home (which did not have a DVR). We wanted to take the DVR with us and connect it to our Direct TV service at our vacation home. I was told this was possible. BUT when we tried to hook it all up, NOTHING. A technician had to come--and he said the service in Stockton had been CANCELLED--and all my prerecorded movies/TV shows had been lost. At no time did I tell AT&T to cancel that service--we only wanted to TRANSFER IT. Now I get an ad in the mail asking us to come back to Direct TV. WE NEVER LEFT! There's an offer for $35/mo to come back to AT&T. Since you were so dumb as to cancel that service and goof up my DVR, you might want to give us this rate for awhile. We aren't really happy with Direct TV (it's WAY too expensive), but it's better than cable :-(

AT&T bundle pkg directv, home phone and internet

In approx the 1st wk of March, I spoke with a young lady to get all 3 services in a bundle. The monthly price quoted was $118.00. On March 13 my installation was supposed to take place between 8 and 12. At 8 am a direct tv van pulled up in front of the house. He set out his cones, got in van and was talking on his phone. 15 min later he got out picked up cones and drove off. A few minutes later I got a phone call saying someone was on there way.A young man from At &t arrived and set up internet and phone. When i inquired about Tv (direct Tv) he said someone else will be setting that up. 2pm rolled around still no one here. I called and their reply was a tech was there and said house was unassessible with dogs in back yard. First of all the backyard doesnt need to be entered, everything is in front outside of my backyard fence, the dogs which are harmless huskys were in a dog run inside the fence. Because it was later in the day the appt had to be rescheduled a wk later. This is not my fault the man never even came to the door. He lied maybe had better things to do. So... this is my understanding of why my services were not bundled initially, when that was the agreement when setting service up. Next...it tooks weeks and numerous phone calls of being on hold every time for more than 20 minutes each time to get my services bundled. Next...it was initially agreed that I did not want my phone number changed, Ive had the same number for 23 years [protected]. my family members told me they tried to call and is said the phone was disconnected. i called from my cell and sure enough it was. When I originally got your service I was still receiving calls at [protected]. So when they bundled my services I got a new bill with the phone number [protected]. i dont think so. I want my old number back. Nothing has been right from the very beginning and I am tired of spending hours on the phone to people who accept no responsibility or accountability. I was told I would receive a $200 reward. i got something in the mail for a $40 reward. Now when I try to get on the website and look at the claim number its disqualified, why? This is not at all what was promised! I paid 61.92 to direct tv separately for the 1st month and 124.00 to att. This is way more than 118.00. I was told when arranging the service that with 3 bundle home land line, direct tv and internet, the phone would not have charge. I have spoken to agents who now tell me that there is no way there would be no charge for a landline. Why was I told this. Arent all of your calls recorded. My account number [protected] which I am now not able to access on line and could before.Also they sent me a letter saying my contact email [protected]@yahoo.com when it is [protected]@yahoo.com. Now I have a bill for 195.96 and upcoming bill for 162.96. I was recently told after my argument about the initial quote that my bill would be 140.00 combined all 3. that 3bundle would bring the phone down to 19.99 a month instead of 48.48. Also I was told there wasnt an installation fee. every time I get a bill it gets larger. I am going to the state board about this., I switched service for something more affordable . By the way, the reward center never answers a call nor is there the option on the website to chat with a rep like the message while your on hold says. In the last month I have spent over 350 minutes on the phone with your customer service reps and the reward center number to get (0) results. This is poorest most pathetic business experience I have ever had in my 52 years of life. I would not recommend your service to anyone! I am very sorry I came back as a customer and will never again, nor recommend to anyone. I hope we can reach a suitable agreement, if not, this complaint will go above and beyond AT&T. Thankyou

AT&T international cell service/billing

My wife traveled separately from our daughter to meet on a trip to Southeast Asia. Our daughter was going to away for about 6 weeks so she purchased the AT&T Passport plan for the trip. My wife, who has an older flip phone, purchased the International Day Pass so that she could be in touch with our daughter while on route. Turns out my wife's itinerary had to be moved almost 24 hours later, so, instead of meeting at the airport, arrangements had to be made for my wife to get to the hotel in Bali without meeting our daughter at the airport (she had arrived on schedule). My wife transferred planes in Taiwan where she had no service at all. She could not contact me in the U.S., nor could she contact our daughter in Bali. When she touched down in Bali she texted/talked to our daughter to make a number of arrangements. Our AT&T bill showed a charge of some $86 for texts/calls which should have been covered by both the Passport/International Day Pass plans. I called in to the customer service line, explained the situation (the usual 30 minutes plus) and was told I should play the bill minus the extra charges. But, SURPRISE!, I am now being charged again for those charges and being threatened because they are "past due". After another 35 minutes this morning on the phone with billing I was finally "offered" $70 off the charges. The rep claimed to have no notes saying those excess charges were going to be removed. I guess I should be the one taking notes! Amazing how much goes on that relies on us, as customers, having faith in company representatives, the ones who take the notes! In any event, after being a loyal customer for some 16 years - ever since I got a cell phone - sometimes enough is enough. I told the rep her manager could call me (he/she was not available at the time I called. I really think the manager hoped to buy me off with the $70 offer) since I could not accept AT&T retracting what we had agreed upon three weeks ago. We'll see what happens. I will say this: when it comes to international cell plans, buyer beware!

AT&T customer service while trying to upgrade my system

As I said numerous times I was very confused. I tried to read back to her what I heard and understood and she kept interrupting me and insisting that everything way correct and not to worry. Even without all the information. She also kept insisting that I schedule the upgrade the entire time I was trying to see what I had as a package and what I was paying right now as well as what the difference would be per month if I upgraded. She wasn't worried about my questions just that I schedule the upgrade. This was throughout the call. I felt very uncomfortable and rushed. I still am not sure that I understand everything and am terrified that my bill per month with the upgrade is going to be way higher. She said it wouldn't be and there wouldn't be much difference. The other thing I asked about was the equipment insurance. I don't have that on my stuff now and requested that it be added the day the upgraded equipment is installed. She kept wanting to add it right then and I told her that I didn't want it on my stuff that I had now but the new stuff. I had to say that numerous times. I was trying to schedule and get off the phone by them because I was irritated and frustrated. She said her supervisor wanted to speak to me about quality control. I didn't want to do that but she kept insisting! So I spoke with her and folder her my concerns as stated above. She sounded just like the sales representative. She kept pushing me to say that I had a great experience with the sales representative and at & t. So I just said whatever to get her off the phone. I am very nervous about what's going to happen with this. Crossing my fingers that it works out. They also said we weren't going to be loosing channels like everyone has been talking about so I hope that was true too.

AT&T att wireless phone service

April 29th 2019
From: Alvin D. Toney Sr.
3412 Laurel Leaf Drive
Orange Park Florida 32065
To: Office of Ms. Ashley Moody
Florida State Attorney General's Office
Citizen Contact Form /Citizen Complaint

Ms. Moody
I am writing in response to the letter you received from Mr. Phelps of AT&T (under AG Pam Bondi's Office). The matter remains unresolved. The assurances made to my wife Felicita and I by AT&T's representative Mr. Bauer in September 2017 remain unfulfilled. I have not received any calls from AT&T with regards to this matter. Also I have called Mr. Phelps Office Four times and have not received a response to my calls. There response has always been " He's in but not available at this time and we will have him call you back" which he never does even though he indicates that he has in response to my previous letters of complaint (when he's responded to Ms. Bondi's office).
Further the amount owed to my previous wireless carrier Verizon is $2, 226.00. Which they have now sent to collections has had an adverse affect on my credit rating .
We were told on Sept 17th 2017 by Mr. Bauer that the monthly cost of our four phones would be $150, 00 per month it is in Fact 275.00 per month. Also our previous Verizon phones were never returned to Verizon and our outstanding bill for service was never paid to Verizon as told to us by Mr. Bauer.
Further the phone number given us by Mr. Bauer of 508- 845-0705 is not in service.
I look forward to a call from a representative of AT&T to resolve this matter ASAP.

Thank You

AT&T wifi

Today I called the 800 number to see if there was a problem with the internet in my neighborhood. I was told by the the automated response system that it would be a five minute wait. Three hours later, I still hadn't been helped and had to leave my house. I've never experienced this in my life. Is this AT&T's way of discouraging customers to call in with questions?😡

AT&T sending a replacement devices with expired warranty.

I have been with AT&T for 2 years, I had 2 lines and had insurance on the 2 devices. on march 2019 I received 2 devices as a replacement for the 2 devices I had due to technical issues. after 30 days my wife's device was malfunctioning, so I called AT&T and they sent ma another replacement. 2 weeks later my phone started having issues, so I called AT&T since they told me that you will have 1 years warranty on your replacement but the refused to handle the issue because I switched to another provider and now I have a manufacturer warranty valid until march 2020, when I checked with apple their data indicated that my device warranty was expired on 2016, I tried to speak with several management level at AT&T and at the end the supervisor just ended the call from his side. by the way my wife's phone warranty was expired. so my conclusion that when you submit a claim they just send you a refurbished phone with issues and hoping that the device at least 30 days because after 30 days they don't take responsibility. I don't understand how they give me devices with 1 year warranty and when I need to use the warranty I discover that the warranty is expired. the manger lied on me and told me you have 1 year warranty just go to the manufacturer and they will replace it for you, I had to drive 30 minutes back and forth to apple service center because I trusted her and then I discover that AT&T just hire a group unprofessional personnel.

AT&T order pay per view via phone

3/27/19: Last night I attempted to buy a pay per view movie, starting at 9PM. I began the process of ordering by phone a approximately 8:30 pm. It told me to check my phone line after first try. Did so and tried again. No luck. Called customer serviced and now I have 6 minutes before the movie is to begin. The agent said she could help me buy the movie, then she transferred me to somewhere where the wait time was 9 minutes - way beyond the starting time for the movie. I hung up and redailed customer non-service and was told the wait time was 1 minute. After 5 minutes an agent came on the line - I has really mad by this time since I had missed the movie. He explained to me that AT&T was currently doing maintenance on the buy pay per view via phone, so that is why the option did not work. I was livid. Why was I not notified about this? So I would know about it and not waste time trying to dial up. The first agent did not seem to know anything about this. Poor, uninformed non-cusomer service is what it is. I have been with Direct/TV for 20 years - this may be my last year. I'm sick of incompetent customer service.

AT&T billing method

I am complaining about ATT's billing system.
Today, my service was suspended because I had not paid on a past due bill in Nov.
I just ckecked my bank statements as far back Nov 2017. Beginning with Dec 2018 I made the following payments:
12/27/18--$130.12
11/28/18--$133.68
10/24/18--$165.05
09/21/18--$133.97
08/20/18--$278.17
07/25/18--$119.34
06/04/18--$120.20
04/25/18--$120.20
03/26/18--$129.31
02/28/18--$5.59
01/16/18--$114.77

I would like to know why are my charges so different? I left Spectrum because of
rates continually going up. I am very unhappy with ATT too.

We are charged excessive prices and all we get is informercials. Why are we paying to see commercials? There is very little to see on TV. Customers are being ripped-off !

My Name is Helen Grayson. My acct. No is [protected] I hope I will not be ignored.

AT&T multiple fraudulent dealings with att reps.

At 3:34 pm on Wednesday April 24th I placed a call to 1-866-813-9289 (length 51:15) and placed an order for ATT Fiber 300 and Uverse U300 as a bundle. I was advised the Fiber would be $40 per month and the U300 service would be $45 for the 12 month period of the agreement at which point the price of the U300 might fluctuate but the Fiber internet would stay at $40 as long as there was a bundle of some sort. I agreed to this and asked him to process this order During this conversation to get to this point I advised the employee in no uncertain terms that I did not want Directv and that he did not even need to look at pricing for it because I would not have it again, I was very clear about this and the package agreed upon was UVerse as stated by him and I both. He also promised a $250 visa gift card reward for the purchase of the bundle and advised me that we would have NFL Sunday ticket for free for a year as well (I was not aware at that time that the NFL Sunday ticket was Directv only). After finalizing the order, setting up the install time, and asking again $85 plus tax is the whole price and being assured it was we ended the call.
At 4:14 pm emails started arriving to confirm my "Directv Order" including a Directv contract, landlord signature form, account registration emails, and an emailing detailing my 24 month Directv agreement and order that I was to receive.
At 4:44 pm I placed another call to ATT this time to 1-800-288-2020 (length 1:18:53) to advise them of this problem. After some explanations I was transferred to the loyalty department to someone who was supposed to help (name may have been David, I am not sure). He kept me on the phone for 1 hour 18 minutes supposedly going back and forth with his supervisor discussing the problem of the other agent fraudulently placing this Directv order instead of what we discussed. Ultimately he did cancel the Directv order and that is the only thing that he did, none of the rest of what I am about to put in this statement was done on my account or added to the notes of my account. The end result of all of the back and forth between him and I and supposedly a supervisor who never actually got onto the phone themselves was the following. I was told the order for Uverse U300 was now placed and that unfortunately the best he could do on the monthly was $47, that there was no way to trigger the gift card that I was promised so they were going to put a credit on my account for the $250 and that also there was no way to give me NFL Sunday ticket so after some additional back and forth I was told there could be additional account credit of $150 so the Uverse U300 for $47, the Fiber 300 at the original agreed upon price of $40, contract term one year, and a total of $400 of account credit to be added as soon as my account was active. This was the promise made on this phone call.
I waited a little over the 24 hours for the account confirmation documents I was told would be emailed and when they didn't arrive I called back in at 7:07 pm April 25th (length 1:21:20) to find out where they were. At this point I was informed by the individual on the phone that the only thing he sees is that I have Fiber 300 getting installed and that the Directv is cancelled. No order placed for the U300 TV service and no notes at all relating to the conversations of the prior evening about the price of the U300 ($47) or the account credits ($400). After I got upset at this news the individual I was speaking with got a manager on the line (Jay-a tech support supervisor) who could not help me and he then got Stephanie from Loyalty on the phone. Stephanie could not fix anything that had been done, also advised me she did not see the notes from the night before, and supposedly took down my request for a supervisor to pull the two above calls and listen to them before calling me back as she promised they would. I am now awaiting the call from the supposed supervisor.

AT&T directv & internet

On April 03 I received a flyer offering a promotion to bundle Direct TV & Internet. I called and asked if there was internet in my area since it is a new subdivision. I asked the representative to make sure I had service in my area because if I didn't I was not interested in any of the services. He assured me that I could get AT&T Internet and Direct TV so then I agreed to start service. He said I was going to receive a gift card for $100 dollars and went ahead to set up my appointment for the Direct TV installation and said that for the internet they were going to call me the next day. Nobody called me the next day so I called and I found out that there is no internet service in my area which means that the representative lied to me! He wanted to make a sale and lied for his own benefit! What kind of business is this? This is unacceptable, unethical, just wrong! So now I'm going to pay more a month! I'm very upset about this! I thought I was dealing with a serious company but obviously not. I called and complained about this and the manager I talked to was just like "oh sorry " but didn't offer any solutions. Once again he showed the lack of care and customer service. I'm a realtor and I will make sure I tell all the people I come across to make sure not to use your services. All my clients that buy houses from me will hear about the terrible service and lack of professionalism you guys are all about.

AT&T uverse account

I called last month and spoke to a supervisor at AT&T and was advised going forward my bill would 236.90. I received my bill this month and it is 260.17 the customer service rep that I spoke with said it was due to taxes and fees. Taxes and Fees are $23.27. Your customer service people have no knowledge of billing and how to resolve problems. They tell you anything to get you off the phone.

I had a Richard Thomas call me today. My girl who answered the phone said he stated he was from Comcast in regards to my billing. I am the office manager and when I picked up the phone he stated his name was Richard Thomas and he was calling from AT%T. I told him he told my employee he was from Comcast(because we recently contracted with Comcast and...

AT&T wireless

Hi everyone,

Coming here to ask for your help and suggestions on what you think should be my next steps. This is probably the most dishonest company I had business with in the past years.

Last February I called AT&T to discuss my wireless plan and complain about the so called "connection fee" ($20/month just to connect my smartphone to my plan, like I could use my plan in any other way). After being transferred to the Loyalty department and discussing with them I was offered an upgrade from my iPhone 7 to the new iPhone XR at a discounted price ($349 if I remember well) and asked to call back on the closure of my billing cycle to change for an unlimited plan. I asked and the agent clearly stated that from then onwards I'd pay a lower amount vs what I was paying at that time.

Fast forward, they have INCREASED my connection fee to $40/month, my plan was not changed and now I'm locked for 2 years in the contract because of the discounted phone. Which btw there's almost nothing discounted there, because on top of the $349 already paid I have these extra $20/month disguised as connection fee for the 2 years of the contract, so another $240 on the price.

Spoke to the Loyalty department yesterday and they say there's nothing I can do about it, I requested them to pull the recording of my call with the Loyalty department and they say that's not possible also, informed also that if I change providers I'll have to pay the early termination fees (around $300). On top of it to unblock my phone it would take about 2 months, since they say I have to pay my early termination fees (about 1-2 cycles after I leave) and then request it to be unblocked.

So my questions to you:
- Any suggestions on how to proceed from here?
- Does anyone know how to accelerate the unblocking of the phone once I transfer to another provider?

And my suggestions: don't EVER do business with AT&T!

Thanks!

AT&T mobile phone service

I have been an ATT customer for 17 years.
I have two lines and an apple watch currently.
I have two ATT next phones.
One phone was due to be returned.
I returned the wrong phone.
Instead of sending back the mistakenly sent phone ATT did the following:
1. Kept the mistaken phone
2. Asked for the correct phone.
3. Returned the correct phone and told me it was too late to return it.
4. Asked for the correct phone again and provided shipping
5. Returned the correct phone again and said it was too late to return it.
6. Asked for the correct phone AGAIN
7. Returned the correct phone and told me it was too late to return it AGAIN
8. Asked for the correct phone again and provided shipping AGAIN
9. Returned the correct phone again and said it was too late to return it AGAIN
And then charged me for the correct phone but kept the wrong phone.
Promised me two $25 credits for my trouble but did not give them to me.
Promised me credits for the correct phone.
Did not give them.
Cut off my service.
Charged me a restoral fee.
They keep telling they have opened a case for my issues.
ATT STILL HAS MY OTHER PHONE .. FOR THREE MONTHS. And ATT is charging me for the phone.
It has been three months of a total clown show.
I have been with ATT for 17 years, paid their ridiculous rates, been loyal even though ATT has always been a total disaster.
Now I am fed up and I am not going to take it anymore.
Done!
I am going to write a compelling and detailed account of every stupid thing that has happened and post it to every social media service in the world.
I am going to do a paid media campaign with your idiotic shenanigans.
I am going to get on television to tell everyone what ATT will do in place of doing the right thing.
