I was lied and manipulated to change carriers by AT&T and was guaranteed my bill would not be more than what I was paying with Verizon. My bill increased over $200 per month and I was suppose to be on an unlimited plan like I was with Verizon and that was a lie. No one at AT&T would do anything to resolve my complaint. One more thing I was also told I...

I am writing to address several issues related to my recent service activation with AT&T. On January 7th, I initiated a new service, and despite multiple attempts, my application faced challenges. After finally being approved, I agreed to revised terms, which included a monthly cost of $120 for four business lines and a new phone. Additionally, I wa...

AT&T Being charged for a service that I don't have.

I went to the ATT store on Veterans Day and the staff that helped me were great. What I mean by that, they were polite, friendly and helpful. Just get my bill and I go to check my hotspot. It doesn't work, I called and spent an hour on the phone and they say that both of the sim cards have not been activated. I asked them to cancel the tablet and send me a new correct sim for my hotspot. They say it's in the mail. I ask for a credit as I have been being charged for 2 months for services I couldn't access. They looked on my accounts and see that there has been no usage for the last 2 months. I called and spoke to "Tatiana" in Dallas Billing as well as "Sabrina" they did not help, could care less to help and then the phone disconnected... Needless to say, thats why I am here.

Claimed loss: $233.95

Desired outcome: Please refund the money, as far as an apology - I know the "parties involved" could care less so it would be meaningless.

The ATT.COM website makes logging on to my ATT Wireless account and my Directv Account (separate accounts) a pain in the butt. When I attempt to login the website recognizes that I have in the past logged in to both my ATT Wireless account and my Directv account, and it presents me with the choice of which username/email address I want to use. So far so...

AT&T Wireless service / customer service and business practices

ATT has cost me multiple days of work waiting for empty promises and correcting their mistakes. When the iPhone 15 came out, I ordered it. I was told that I needed to have someone at the point of delivery to receive it as they were shipping it overnight. Next day I called in the evening as I waited all day because I was told it would be delivered the next morning. I was then was told I was not getting my phone on this day because it was back ordered. Then I was offered $25 for my trouble as I lost a day of work. It only gets worse from there. The customer service is horrible. I have spent almost 4 hours on a frozen line with them because the representative did not want to handle their inefficiencies. ATT added a line to my account instead of transferring my old number to my new phone, and then billed me for 2 lines when on my next bill. To throw salt in the wound, it took almost 45 minutes to get that rectified. I ended up calling them multiple times, in which the line would mysteriously disconnect. See pictures below of the phone call.

Claimed loss: time and resource

Desired outcome: I want to expose ATT and make people aware that ATT is only out to rip people off. They do not care about the customer. Their only focus is to generate revenue by any means necessary even if it's through falsifying charges.

AT&T Internet/phone service

I have been an AT&T customer for over 20 years, and this company is the worst of the worst in regards to Internet/Phone service. Every few months they have major outages that apparently their technicians can resolve and it takes days to get your service back up and running. Before Southwestern Bell bought up all the Baby Bells and became AT&T 2.0 the service was still tops. Now it is such an embarrassment the original AT&T would have cringed. I will never return to this company ever again and I will be very outspoken as far as telling others to forget getting service from them. What a shame such a majestic company name such as AT&T would have this happen in their history.

Desired outcome: CEO, COO, and CFO all need to be fired for gross negligence.

AT&T Billing

ATT has made a series of errors and will not claim any form of responsibility, not even partially. literally yelled at me. I recorded it all.13yr customer and I was tossed around by 3 condescending CSA's. Basically called a liar, yelled over, cut off, interupted, and then came the anxiety attack. ATT has had to reverse charges for me before and this time they want over $1200 for their mistakes. They keep charging the wrong bank account and are claiming it's my fault and my only options are pay immediately or pay later. Absolutely nothing was resolved, I cried the whole hour and 20 minutes on the phone with them and had an embarrassing anxiety attack too. I had to excuse myself a moment to catch my breath. After 13 years, I have to switch companies. I used to love att. I wanted to stay.

Desired outcome: I want all of this balance wiped and the proper account numbers be in place and mailed confirmation that it has been done. Then I can stay. If not? Well, I have no choice but to go elswehere and hope they dont do it to me too.

I recently received a promotional letter from AT&T to switch from existing traditional landline phone to digital phone that would allow me to keep my same phone number and my same phone(cordless). This sounding ideal to me since I had been experiencing on & off static/background noise on my existing phone. I'd had techs come out to service it & it'd work...

The employees and management at this store are in incompetent & liars. They will tell you anything to get you to sign a contract, then when you find out you have been duped, their manager’s response: “You have to understand that we are just an authorized reseller, and we can’t do anything”. Maybe if they greeted me at the door with “we’re an authorized...

I had fiber installed on 08-14-23 and was advised by the technician that the line would be buried by 08-28-23. Here it is 09-01-23, eighteen days later and no one has shown up to bury the line. This is the third time that I have had service with AT&T and both of the other times they failed to come back and bury the lines. The customer service from AT&T i...

If you are a Senior Citizen and a victim of romance fraud that includes opening a wireless account for someone to help them that turns out to be fraudulent use of the account, then ATT will hold you financially responsible and threaten your credit rating.

AT&T On my device, iphone, se unlock device and lock

Hello there,

This is Ophelia Garcia, the owner of an iPhone SE. I have been trying to unlock my device by reaching AT&T. Although I am not very computer literate, I managed to get to the bottom of this, but unfortunately, I was denied. I have already requested to unlock my device, but it has a SIM lock.

I have a question in mind, how can AT&T have ties to my device even after it has been fully paid? It does not have any active service, so nobody should have ties to it, right? The problem is that my device is not taking the SIM card that I have a service with.

Thank you. The SIM card is working properly, but the phone is locked, which is causing a lot of trouble. Despite having the same phone number for over three years, the only device available is an iPhone that is paid for. The phone has to be unlocked to use the SIM card, but AT&T and Apple have been unhelpful in resolving this issue. Visiting eight AT&T stores in person did not help either, and the problem persists even after trying to solve it online. The process of requesting to unlock the phone is time-consuming, q the constant back-and-forth between the phone company and customer service has been frustrating. Although a case number was provided, the phone is still not in service, and it is affecting work. Recently, a resubmission was made to unlock the phone, but it was denied due to too many attempts in a month. I need this lock lifted now. I am not about to wait a month. Why are you guys linked to a phone that's already fully paid? I have clients that call me, people I attend to. I need my phone working now, and I need that lock lifted. I have already waited long enough.

Desired outcome: I need my device unlocked because of my work with numerous consumers. I can't wait a month. I've already done it. There's no way to get my phone calls for provider verification purposes.

AT&T Wireless account

3 weeks into my service with AT&T wireless my iPhone 13 was stolen and that was in April I tried to pay asurion the $200 for a replacement phone I had to protection advantage insurance on my account but they did not provide the equipment. Recently I was told I could not pay because I did not submit the right information as far as the latest day of use and that claim was no longer valid and that I need to submit a new claim and in trying to submit a new claim I still got the same running around and was still held to a higher expectation of payment so that I could get a phone and continue the service that still running even as we speak. I have not had a phone to use on their account since May I believe it is I contacted AT&T to try to resolve issues because it's so important to have a phone and be able to have a working phone and have a good service and have good customer service all that matters above all the other places however in order for anyone to look at my account this bill has to be paid and as soon as I get off the phone with them I got a message saying that I no longer had access to the phone number that reduce associated with my account and since then I haven't cared anything about it but it's important that I have a phone cuz now I have AT&T fiber and I don't have a smartphone to even work it the phone I have screen is cracked and I've been trying to navigate without it and I would just like an opportunity to come up with a plan together that does inform me your phone while paying for the debt that has arrived before me from AT&T which is 1159 I don't fully agree with it but I am willing to discuss it and come to an agreement if it's possible cuz at the end of the day everybody need a phone in the working device

Desired outcome: A phone that I can use a minimum that would have the capability of toogling between pages or applications.

AT&T AT&T pole that is damaged

The damaged pole is in the median as shown on the attached map. I reported it to FPL and they said it was an AT&T pole. They said the made a report #NS106492. I am following up on it. If there is a strong wind, as we are in the hurricane season, the pole will fall and can cause serious damage to anyone driving next to it.

Please acknowledge receipt of this complaint and send me a status report. [protected]@yahoo.com

Desired outcome: Replace AT&T severely damaged pole pole

AT&T AT&T's Mistake Cost Me $1799: A Warning to Potential Customers

I gotta say, I'm not too happy with AT&T. I've been seeing all these 5-star reviews, but my experience was far from perfect. My wife and I had to switch from Verizon after 20 years just to get coverage at our rural address. We went to the store and were helped by a nice young lady, but things quickly went downhill. We wanted to upgrade our phones and take advantage of the trade-in credits, but my phone didn't get keyed in correctly because it had to be preordered. Nobody working knew how to preorder on a trade-in credit, so we were told to come back the next day. When I returned, the manager said they couldn't fix the mistake, even though it was their fault. They told me to call corporate, but they couldn't fix it either. I was shocked to hear that nobody in the company had the power to override or fix the mistake. I mean, I've been a senior operations manager and director of business development for 26 years, and I know that there's always a way to correct a mistake. But apparently not with AT&T. They told me I had to pay $1799 for a new phone or wait 90 days to see if I could upgrade with credits. It's ridiculous that a simple keystroke error can't be corrected. I told them I would post a bad review and tell everyone I know not to use AT&T. They said they wouldn't help me, but that's okay. I'll make sure to cost them more than the $598 credit they can't give me. And to the young lady who helped me, I'm not mad at you. Keep up the good work and get that boy into college!
