AT&T has this promotion for anyone to turn in any phone in any condition to get a new S22. What they don't state or advertise clearly is that it is only for new customers. Very disappointing. Had they stated it clearly I would have e saved myself the disappointment and embarrassment. Apparently we don't count. Very frustrating to deal with and a too good to be true at. I am going to have another company buy out my contract and deal with a more upfront and honest company
Just a word of caution to anyone who has an AT&T easement in their yard. I had multiple AT&T contractors who damaged my sprinkler systems and now AT&T have not settled a claim made in June. It was referred to their front bully boy Sedgewick who has ceased to respond to any of my communications. The claim amount is $ 173.52, if AT&T are not even willing communicate, it may be symptomatic of something rotten beneath the grandeur of glamourous advertising.
Please beware of AT&T.
If possible don't go for purchasing their device and monthly installment payment plan. They will charge you one or the other way to charge more. They got my device but billing credit only they gave for 5 months. They revoked it again and I have to monitor the billing and ask them. Really they started cheating called direct bank payment and deduct the amount from bank. If you dont notice the bill, they charge for international talk, etc etc...
One month they sent me bill for $759.11. Now you can image their intension to suck your blood.
BEWARE OF AT & T AND YOUR MONEY.
Charged me for a month in Advance and wasn't explained, they said $0 start up cost! Charged me for one day! $85 dollars for internet, lied to me about when I was going to receive my cell phone, said one week and ended up being 3 weeks later! I will never use this company again! Setting the wrong expectations is just like lying to a customer just for business!
Basically, we are at a stalemate with AT&T. AT&T refuses to do anything, and the manager at the "Authorized Retailer" won't get involved until the sales associate admits what they have done or tries to explain/resolve the issue. Of course, the sales associate is avoiding us. Word of advice, please be sure to research ANY of these mobile companies' physical stores. They may appear to be official but, in fact, are just "Authorized Dealers". These "Authorized Dealers" lure unsuspecting customers with a sale/promotion that appears to be legit; however, when the customer receives the bill and the discount/sale/promotion doesn't reflect, calling customer care won't remedy the issue, at least that's our experience with AT&T.
Sidenote: all of which I've posted has happened this week in a matter of 2 days.
Today, visited the ATT store. The owner of the store was very sincere about resolving this issue. However, we still needed to speak with associate (who was out due to illness), otherwise, there's nothing they nor ATT can do. Said associate is supposed to call today. The owner informed us that they consistently tell their agents about being careful as to the information they give out to customers. To give the owner the benefit of the doubt, we can understand their plight. However, that doesn't negate how many ATT customers are being misled into believing that they're getting a good deal, only to see an exorbitant bill and for ATT and their stores to avoid all responsibility.
Looks like I'll need to post a part 3 because our issue hasn't been resolved.
Sketchy business practices, horrible customer service they hire from India for a cheap price. Did you know if you are in a family plan you pay less for having more lines, however what they don't tell you is that when you add a new line in the middle of a billing cycle they will charge you those extra days the line is open at full price. That means if you pay $30 for their lowest unlimited plan while in a family plan, you will instead be paying the full $75 unless you know to add a line the very same day your billing cycle starts.
My phone has a message that "Your phone's not registered on a network, so you can only make emergency calls." My cell phone is supposed to automatically update but it does not. I have ran into this problem before but could manually update the phone then I could use it again. That is not working this time. I called customer service and waited on hold for a long time. After finally being connected to a person, I explained the problem and waited while she was working on the problem (I thought). After a few minutes of silence I was cut off. I still cannot use my phone and apparently no one is interested in helping with the problem.
We had two phones that needed replacing when they upgraded their system last year. They sent horrible phones compared to the phones we had (not even close to comparable features) AND the new phones they sent do not work (connection issues, delays, they crash all the time). We have called numerous times but they will do nothing about it except sell us new phones (at their profit of course). This is enough to switch providers. They are awful compared to what we are paying (we have a family of 5 on one account and the other 2 of us on another account). Good riddance AT&T!
A company where the customer pays the consequences for the customer representatives mistakes. My wife and I set up our phones to have iPhone forever when we went to upgrade our phones we were told only one of our phones was set up for that upgrade plan and not the other which makes absolutely no sense why on earth would I only set that plan up being only 5 dollars more a month for just one of the phone on the contract…? When asked if they can make right on their mistake we were told there is nothing we can do that we have to pay off the phone and then I'm able to upgrade. All about what they can gain off their customers all scams.
I switched to AT&T prepaid from virgin mobile prepaid because I bought an iPhone online that was not unlocked. I thought the service would be comparable but I went from paying the same amount and getting 10 GB of data - to AT&T's garbage, insulting deal of 1 GB of data. When I called customer service to unlock my phone so I could go back to virgin mobile, They insulted my intelligence by saying I was stuck with them for six months. When I asked to get transferred to a supervisor they said there was no supervisor available. When I insisted on speaking with the supervisor she put me on hold and pretended to be someone else but it was the exact same voice. She then told me to go online to do an unlock request, which resulted in the same answer. This is the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of doing business with. I can't wait until I never have to deal with at&t ever again!
They suspended my lines I paid my bill, they claim they never received my payment when I have my statement and confirmation email showing my payment was made. This is the second month in a row that I had issues with att. I will never refer anyone to att. They will take your money and say they never received it!
People please becareful when signing up with AT&T wireless.they will lie to you just to get you switch over...they will not honor even if you have proof of the quote that was promised...now I'm stuck with 36 months with the trade in devices...RUN and dont look back!
Unnecessary charges and poor customer service
I went overseas, text stating international data, called AT&T who assured no charges are being processed. Got changed $356. Filed a dispute, denied dispute because worker failed to document why the dispute was submitted. Asked for supervisor who states his supervisor is the one who can process refunds who is in a meeting and will call back. But supervisor agreed and acknowledged AT&T error. NO call back so I called back in. Informed I need to contact international department. International filed another dispute and offered 1/2 $178 refund. I refused 1/2 and ask for a supervisor. Supervisor wouldn't hear me out before yelling and hanging up on me. After many years of business I am DONE WITH AT&T
I have had to call every month for 6 months for the same billing issue. They have my on the wrong plan and somehow were able to change my 3 childrens lines but not mine and it is messed up every month. I spend hours on the phone and it is never fixed. I would not recommend this company if they can't even solve simple billing issues.
We bought a cable to charge the cell phone. After a few months the connector that goes in the phone fell out. We took it to AT&T on Foothill in Hayward thinking we could exchange for another one and found out there is only a 2 week period given for returns on accessories. This is outrageous to the customers who spend a lot of money on AT&T phones.
Just wanted to alert the public to be aware of the lack of customer service if a lemon is sold.
You know how they say one u happy customer tells on average 10 people about bad service? I've told 229 this year, and I will bad mouth it for my entire life. You guys are the biggest piece of $#*! organization I've ever dealt with. As long as I live, I will bad mouth this dog $#*! company. Putrid customer services, braindamaged "technicians", lies on lies. Despicable embarrassing dog $#*! losers
I visited the Kingwood, Tx AT&T Store near Houston. I bought a new watch that I originally went in for, and signed up for Direct TV that THEY encouraged because I commented my current provider is incompetent. The manager said he would be at my house two days later to install. (Direct TV doesn't do this.) He never set a time, never called me—never showed up. I called twice that day—no call back from anyone in the store. No one cared, and no one made any effort to save the AT&T account of decades. I realized the whole thing was a sham to sell a product—it was cruel. I reported the incident to both AT&T and Direct TV—and every review site I can find. Of course, I also canceled the DT account and "installation." I will never shop there again and will look for a new wireless company. Don't be cruel to hardworking customers: we bite.
We have been an ATT customer for over 20 years (back when they Cingular). We recently upgraded our phones with a trade in. We pay for 5 lines. Phones were picked up at an ATT store. The gentleman at the store helped us factory reset the trade-in phones and mail them back in. ATT has denied our trade in stating the phones were not unlocked - They don't know how to do that? Now they want us to pay $60 more every month. We are old - we cant afford that. After spending hours upon hours online, and with phone support, and the store... we are out of luck - they don't care one bit. And since their processes take so long, it is past the return date of the new phones. We are jumping ship to Verizon no matter what it costs. ATT does not care about its customers. Avoid them like the plague.
I canceled my internet service with them 2 years ago. The statement said that I had $50 credit. It took a whole year and dozens of lengthily phone calls to finally get my money back. I still had Direct TV with them, the price went constantly up so I decided to cancel last month. I was told by the representative that everything was paid up, that I didn't owe them any money. Guess what? They took another payment from me this month. I called and was told that I still had to pay $167.20. Nonchalantly was informed that I just was given the wrong info the day I canceled. No apology, nothing. Been with Direct TV for almost 20 years. I think this company is crooked and I do not recommend doing business with them.
I went to one their stores looking to get a prepaid SIM card with hotspot unlimited. They gave me a sim card that did not work and refused to refund or give a new sim card and asked me to go to another store.
Went to another store the next day, and got the sim card fixed only to find out that their plan did not include hotspot AND they charged $10 for 5gb of hotspot as an add-on.
I managed to get the hotspot refunded but the store manager refused to make a refund even though the aim card is completely useless to me and I specifically asked for something with hotspot.
Never buying anything from this company ever again. I wish I could give 0/5.
Answer: Terrible service, this is the worst service I've ever had. Canceled all services with this company after my customer service experience. Customer service is horrible, their service in general is horrible, and they don't offer anything I can't get at any other competitors store. I wouldn't recommend service or work with this company, they are discriminatory and bias. All they do is take advantage of you and try to sell you stuff that you don't need so they can raise their commission. If you want to be serviced by a bunch of dilettantes, this is the place for you, bad service, work, and experience, Joshua at legacy village has terrible customer service experience.
Answer: At this point I am so disgusted with a T and T your customer service skills are horrible they don't help you out they keep transferring you to different departments just to get you off the phone they do not like to resolve problems and promises that they made they do not keep their promises they get you into getting into their products and getting their commission and then they screw you out of what they promise you I do advise anybody to go through a TNT they are lousy
Answer: Because they never really will cancel your service! They overcharge you and when you finally get a hold of them they still refuse to help.
Answer: To answer your question, Simply there is no accountability at AT&T. They bounce you around and they make NO attempt for resolution.
Answer: I use to work for AT&T, they have gone from bad to worse to I don't give a damn, and that's a shame
Answer: That is just silly. He wldnt be a multi millionaire if his businesses were bad. You forget, everybody loved him till he announced he was conservative. Isn't it all the democratic mayor's and governor's states that are going to shit? Or would you rather take crime over parent choice?
