Horrible email account service
I dealt with months of "ERROR CODE 5" for my email account. This means no access for a PAID account since May, 2008. I just closed the account end of July with assurance from 2nd tier AT&T techs that I can transfer every file and email to another account (which is free). I am still trying to access and do this and now being told that they can not access 5 years of files (taxes, legal, insurance,... very important files). ARGH!!!
I am so frustrated!!! I keep trying to call AT&T, go through the levels of transfers,... disconnected 5 times. Over 4 hours later I have been now passed off to the SBC web hosting 866-7229932 techs. Still no answers or solutions!
What do I do NOW?!

Collusion & price gouging
I relocated within San Francisco October, 2007 into subsidized housing that offered ONLY bundled Internet and Dish for television and Internet at prices higher that AT&T offers just a few hundred yards away because they were provided exclusive rights to provied these services to ALL residents in the development. Elsewhere in San Francisco AT&T offers many incentives for customers to switch from the exclusive cable franchise holder to Dish, but they have no motivation when they are guaranteed anyone wanting to watch television in this development can only choose their package. In addition, they offer vitually NO customer service and have many service interruptions that they don't explain, fix quickly or waive charges for. How can those many hundreds of us in this lousy situation get equitable pricing and decent dervice?

Dishonesty
I signed up for AT&T wireless by bundling my home phone. I spent an extended amount of time going over what cost would be involved. There was no mention of an activation fee. I did not learn of this fee until after everything was activated, and acessories were bought. I called and complained and they said they would log the complaint. What I want to know is this a common practice of not disclosing all fees until it's too late? And I want to warn others of AT&T's dishonesty. Also the man logging my complaint lied about the rebate program: stating the reason I did not receive anything in the mail, they no longer use paper. I called the rebate # which told me they would mail me form and was clueless as to the no paper. It sounded to me as if it is a way of getting out of the rebate, making it hard to get so that it would remain unclaimed.

Uverse equipment returns
Disconnected our U-verse account 0n May 26, AT&T required to send boxes for the return of receivers and gateway but these boxes were not received until late July. The equipment was sent via UPS with tracking number on July 26. Received a bill for missing euipment for a total of $648. Have talked to just about every department at AT&T and they have the record of equipment being received in Laredo however we still have outstanding bill. Don't know what it will take for this correction. Waiting on yet another call back from them telling me what the problem is (August 22).

AT&T cannot correct their own incorrect billing
Since I moved and started new phone and internet services, I have been billed incorrectly every single month from AT&T. They incorrectly added someone else's account to my bill, and every month, my husband and I make multiple phone calls, waste lots of time on hold and being transferred to the appropriate people, to be told that the issue has been resolved. The account reps give us our "correct" bill total and we pay. The next month, the bill has not been corrected, so we end up with a past due amount for someone else's services (whose name is actually appearing on our bill!), a threatening notice about disconnection of service and bill collection agencies, and a new total that also includes this person's services for the current month. Every time we receive a bill, we call again, with the names of the account reps we've talked to in the past, and all of our "confirmation codes" that were supposed to re-assure us that this issue was taken care of. And every month, we call several times, spend lots of time on hold, and are told that "everything has been taken care of", when clearly, since each bill is still incorrect, it is not. My husband and I moved to this address almost 9 months ago and they still have not corrected their own billing mistake.

Extra charges
I checked with at&t a year ago, when I began to get everything together to open a new business. They quoted pricing for a business phone. I could get a 1 year contract (because of not knowing how successful this venture would be), rather than a 3 year contract. Then at the end of that year, of course, I could continue with another year, if I was making it o.k. When I received my first bill, it was larger than we discussed, so I called the co. and was told that the person that I set my account up with, did not tell me all I needed to know about the charges, but this new person would give me a rebate, plus a discount each month, to help me out as a new business. They sent me a new contract to sign and everything was good.
About 8 months later I had reason to call the co. and asked them when my contract was up. The rep. told me it was not up for over 2 more years.??? I explained the past conversations, and he said fine, but you should know that if you make this a 1 year contract, we will charge you an ending contract fee, plus charge you back the discount you have been getting.!!!
Well needless to say I was upset, and said, "I know you can't be for real, when your office is the one that set all of this up?" "Well m'am, I just want you to know before hand, that you will be charged, if you end this contract before the 3 years is up". Well guess what? I received a bill the next month for over $400.00.
I called and asked for a supervisor, and they told me they would return my call within 48 hrs. 3 weeks later I have heard from no-one.
I called again, and was told that the super. would have to call me back. "No I'll just hold on while you get her", I told them, after my past experience with supervisors calling back. An hour later, I'm told by the super., that there is nothing they can do, even though she agreed that it was their office's fault. I told them I could not pay the bill, nor did I think it was my place to have to pay the bill. And I didn't. When I received my next bill, with the charges still on there, I finally got another super. and after telling my story for the 5th time, she said she would remove the charges, except for a small portion, and I would need to call them when I got ready to end the service, before the year's contract was up. Several months later, as we decide our economy will not allow us to stay in business, I call to find out when my contract is up, and they tell me, the following day, and they will see to it, that the contract is stopped. I had the phone disconnected when we closed, at the end of June.
The NEXT month, I receive a bill for $202.00. I have already paid my last phone bill, after having paid my bill every month since I talked to the last supervisor, which helped me out. I call them and they tell me this is because I did not send them in writing, 60 days before I ended the contract, that I was ending it. So they charged me $202.00.
What in the HECK, kind of scam is this. Nearly every person I talked to at at&t, gave me some kind of bologna story, and never panned out what they said they were going to do, except for the supervisor whom took the $300.00 and something, off of my bill. If that office told me something, and they tape every conversation, then why don't they follow through? I was a small business owner, trying to make it (and didn't), and they weren't true to their word right from the start.
My store is closed, I have a large debt for the year that I was in business, I have excellent credit, and can not pay this $202.00, nor do I think, because of the incompetence of these people whom don't know their jobs, that I should have to pay it. Something needs to be done.

Bait & Switch International Rates
On 3/27/08 I ordered a land line from AT&T and agreed to pay a monthly fee of $5.00 for their International Calling Plan/Long Distance Plan. The rate to call Trinidad and Tobago on this plan is .34 cents. On or around April 7th 2008 I attempted to place a long distance all and got a recorded message that the service has been disabled. I received a notice subsequently from AT&T's Fraud Department indicating that there appears to be unauthorized use of my telephone because their records indicate a significant increase in the calls placed from my phone and therefore in an attempt to protect me, they disabled the service. On the same day of receiving their notice I recieved my phone bill and after reviewing same I found the problem. AT&T charged me $4.29 per min to Trinidad in lieu of the agreed .34 cents rate. I immediatly phoned their Security Investigator and told them there was no unauthorized use, instead a mistake was made with the rate . I was told to call their Customer Service line and they will rectifiy the error. I did so the next morning and was treated without regard and the Customer Service Supervisor was very rude and inappropriate. I urged him to check AT&T's recorded coversation of 3/27/08 when I initiated the service and agreed to the .34 cents rate. He said well, we can adjust your bill at a dollar something rate. I disagreed and told him AT&T must honor their agreement and that I am not willing to accept that. In the meantime, I tried resolving the issue by writing to AT&T but was ignored. They instead forwarded the case to a Collection Agency that has been sending me notices threating to file a judgement against me. The amount in question is $469.27. As far as I am concerned, I owe nothing because I calculated my usage based on the .34 cents and remitted payment to AT&T in a timely manner. Please let me know if you can help me resolve this successfully or advice which agency I can contact for a resolution. I have all the evidence in the event you need to see same.
Respectfully,
