I had at&t for a while & i even had them before they joinded with cingular & after they joined i had nothing but poblems. Within the past 2years i have seen a lot of charges for phones that i never ordered or recieved. let's start from 1/08
i had a nokia 6085, i was told the software was updated & i wouldn't have the same issues i had before. that was lie. the software was never updated & i had ALL my calls dropped. people would call me & get a message saying my number was not valid. texts weren't going through. they changed my sim card over 40 times but i couldn't get a differet phone. then i bought the lg shine. i sent back the nokia 6085 via corporate store & recieved the shine. i was't happy with it & sent it back & they sent me a blackjack 2 for free. i was happy & loved the phone. one day i picked up my phone to see half a screen. i got it replaced after hours on the phone. later that year i switched from my family plan to a personal plan. i sent in my phone & they said they never recieved it even though i had the proof from the post office saying someone from at&t signed for it. after hours with a&t on the phone& email & fax 2 months passed & they showed they had it the whole time & shouldn't have charged my family $500. then my ex & her new boyfriend went to a store & got 2 new phones, extended my family account & sold the phones & no one asked for an i.d. it took a month but i got that solved.
3/09 we get a bill saying we owe $600 for phones. people in warranty & c.s. saw we weren't to be billed cause even though they were on my number they weren't with my sim card. warranty credited me the charged just for fraud o put them on. fraud also put a note saying no one can deal with the situation but them but when i spoke with "tessy" she said she was the wrong person to speak to & sent me to warranty even though she put the notes on my account. they again saw i wasn't to be charged cause the phones had a "re sale date" & they got them back. here's the kicker. i was being charged for the nokia 6085 i sent in 1/08 but not charged till 3/09 that's over a year later. the other charges are for a blackjack 2 in 11/08 & a moto q in 11/08 both sent to address's i've never lived at & activated with a sim card i didn't own.
warranty saw this but fraud didn't do their jobs. Tessy & her boss both lied & said they did the research but when i said what i knew about the resale dates they told me i wasn't supposed to have that info & that they had to do some "training" but when they were "working" on the matter they were both on vacation & left someone else in charge but he didn't know anything about what was happening.
they shut off all my phones & will no longer speak with me so this is what i gather.
at&t has a "fraud dept" so they can charge people for items they never order or recieve. they lie & cheat & steal. my phones are still off & no one will talk to me. i have spent well over 100 hours trying to fix his with no luck. if i was paid for the hours i spent working on this they'd owe me almost $1000.
stay away from at&t they'll only ruin your credit!!!
