They said they would give me a replacement phone for 4g. My iphone 6s that is a 3d will not be workable jan22. Talked to them 2 days ago, now they have killed my phone and want me to buy a new one. They are nothing but a bunch of liers. This was my business phone for 35 years with At&t. Now i have been crapped on. Thanks a lot you $#*! holes. I am really pissed right now!

Beware ATT
August 1, 2023

I returned a phone that ATT sent to me and kept the tracking number in my computer. Beware:ATT can delete tracking numbers by telling the usps the phone wasn't received and I'm out $400. I am wary of ATT and they want me to go into the store with this same tracking number that doenn't work. So keep your receipt with the tracking number as evidence. They have the power to delete tracking numbers.

Phone number
July 9, 2023

I have had my phone many years with AT&T. One night my phone became useless. Found out they gave my phone number away. As we all know it is a major hassle to have your phone number changed. I am on prepay so is no fault of mine. T mobile ended up with my number. I went to Warrenton MO office and told them I wanted my number back and make my phone good again. I was thrown out their office refusing to give me my phone number that they gave to T mobile. I should have sued them for this! I was without a phone service and live alone in a rural area. The worker that forced me to leave put his grubby hands on me which is assault. I am still finding people after a year not have the new number I was forced with after them giving my phone number away in the middle of a billing cycle that was paid for! Also their satellite internet is a joke buffers and disconnects constantly!

Trouble with AT&T
October 6, 2023

Trouble with AT&T so I cut my service
Just know if you try to leave AT&T they will take you through the ringer. And make you pay more money. Did y'all know when you receive a new phone you better keep that box in came for 2 weeks? If not you will not be able to return it. Eventhough it's within the 2 week period. Other cell companies just will take the phone if you're dissatisfied. So please note to KEEP THE BOX IT original came in or you're out of luck. Also the fold z phones all models are trash don't even buy them no matter how nice they look to you. I went over to Verizon instead and got Samsung phones. If you don't want to curse someone out at AT&T then go to Verizon service for your money. AT&T charged me for a line on my watch that I wasn't even able to use with that watch for 10 months. I didn't even know it. AT&T will get you for money you don't even realize it.

My mom died and they said that they were going to cancel all charges. Then they sent a letter that they were going to go to a collections agency. So I get on the phone to clarify this and they send me through phone h*ll. I was transferred from department to department over 10 times! HATE THIS COMPANY! Worst customer service.

Terrible AT&T Service
December 3, 2020

I have 5 ATT phones and have a customer forever. Never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes in the past. Just now waited on hold for 57 minutes to be told by a person that didnt speed good English that I needed to talk to a different department. Still sitting on hold at 1 hour 33 minutes. And even worse - I had to listen to their constant COMMERCIALS the whole time! OMG! Boy has ATT gone done hill!

I upgraded the phones for my business for $1, then the service was upgraded to $45 per month per phone without my knowledge, on top of adding multiple other fees that I was not aware of. Then when I tried changing the service to an unlimited plan they only applied the new plan to three of the 19 phones I have under this account. The other 16 phones still have the same service. My company has paid anywhere from 1.5 to 5 times the amount we should be paying for the phone service because of AT&Ts constant inability to do anything correct. I am constantly on the phone for at MINIMUM 1.5 hours for them to MANUALLY make changes to each INDIVIDUAL phone... and the bill is still incorrect at the end of the day! If I could give them zero stars I would, I cannot stand working with them and highly regret upgrading the phones.

Connected
April 14, 2020

I may not know if my son will have a high school graduation ceremony or if my friends will be able to earn a paycheck this month but one thing I do know is that whenever I need to connect with the people in my life, whether it be hearing their voice or reading their messages, At&t will make it happen. Sometimes, the At&t employees that work in customer service, have a bad day or might struggle with personal issues that come across to others as them being rude or disrespectful but they are only human, give them a break. One rude employee on the phone shouldn't affect a customers overall opinion of an entire company. At&t is my lifeline, I couldn't keep in touch with the all of most important people in my life without them. Highly recommended, landline, internet service, wireless, satellite TV... they do it all

I was promised a Visa gift card that was to be used to pay off my phone with Verizon. I never received the gift card and now I owe Verizon Wireless almost $900. Don't believe the saleperson if they give you this deal. You will never receive the gift card!

After going to an AT&T store to set up a business plan for my phone, I received multiple bills far more costly than what I was promised. I spoke with multiple employees with the company, and was informed my bill wouldn't be more than quoted. I spoke with someone at the office of the president and was told a higher amount. 4 to 6 employees tell me one amount, then I get a totally different amount from the office of the president. Customer service is terrible and the way they treat customers when it comes to issues or resolution is far worse. I feel they shouldn't be in business at all.

BAD
February 21, 2022

My inboxes for my wife and I were both locked out! Can't see if we have bills waiting or just someone trying to contact us. Called ATT customer service, most don't speak English you can understand, that always helps! Talked to 7 reps and 3 MGRs. Came to a conclusion, to send me a reset password through the snail mail. About 5 days later I got it, didn't work. So they paid 10 people for 5 to 6 hrs of talk, that couldn't do nothing as far as help. Told me no discount on my bill, I'm not ENTITLED to an inbox the guy said, but pay 10 people that can't do their job.

Final Bill
November 17, 2023

Some time ago me and my wife wanted to change t mobile to att. We came to the att store and one employee tried for a long time to set up the work of sim cards, but it didn't work, he asked us to try to do it ourselves at home as well. We tried to set up sim cards at home but that didn't work either and we couldn't activate it. Then we just threw away the sim cards. Probably because our phones are undersupported. But sim card t mobile works in our phones. After what 2-3 months we received a bill for $400 for using the att wireless network. But we have never used sim cards. It is so expensive bill for nothing.
At the moment a debt collector try to take my money for nothing.
It is super terrible surprise from ATT!

Coverage not well cared and customer services... well, sometimes is good and. Sometimes it sucks. Perhaps time to switch to a different and try a competitor as my wife as Verizion and she is happy with it.

This should be illegal
October 27, 2022

I just need to simply get into my att email account. I have called ATT nonstop for a month. At this point, I have heard it all. One representative told me they only offer paying customers help (i only have an ATT email I do not have service with ATT - and I wouldn't get it after my experience). I told him that I would pay money and do whatever it took to get back into my email. I've had people promise they will call me back, and never do. I have had people hang up on me after asking to talk to their supervisors. I've broken down crying on the phone and these people hang up on me. I understand it is not appropriate to break down crying to a stranger service representative, but I feel that it is even more inappropriate to hang up on me.

This has to be the WORST customer service I have ever dealt with. I have been on the phone for 8! Days at least 3 hours each time and no one can figure out how to fix the problems and they just pass me around from person to person. JUST AWFUL

Customer service
November 26, 2022

I just got off the phone with Rick out of Oklahoma. This guy exemplifies CUSTOMER SERVICE for AT&T. He was very very helpful with my situation. I want Rick to know the level of stress he took from me with his professional attitude and mild manners. He listened and understood what Edwin (the scammer) did to me with his total mishandling of my phones. Thank you Rick. Way to go sir!

Be cautious of AT&T agent Brandon Matamoro, an Integrated Solutions Consultant from National Distribution in Home Experts *******681). He works in Miami, Florida. Matamoro deceives customers by promising a gift card that never arrives, providing false information about services, ignoring phone calls, and becoming unreachable. This results in the worst customer service experience.

Poor service
April 27, 2023

We recently switched to ATT and are very disappointed with the service. We traveled to another country and was billed roaming messaging fees despite a pocket WiFi. We were told our pocket wifi was probably working intermittently so roaming was charged even if we had international roaming off. Another thing is my short code messages were not being received from day one. I had to call to have it fixed. Now our trade in was not accepted because they said we did not removed the passcode. We were not aware that we had to removed the passcode. They said to put it on factory settings and remove the sim card. I was under the impression that by putting it on factory settings the passcode was removed. They said we have to manually remove the passcodes on our Galaxy phones. Now we have to pay for our new phones and monthly credits were removed. We are so disappointed with ATT. We have 90 days to return the our phone so we may return our phone at this point if this is not resolved.

Overview

The reviews reflect a predominantly negative perception of the company's overall reputation and customer service. Customers frequently express frustration with long wait times, ineffective support, and unresolved billing issues, leading to a sense of distrust and dissatisfaction. Complaints about unauthorized charges and poor communication from representatives are common, suggesting systemic problems in service delivery. While there are occasional mentions of product reliability, the overwhelming sentiment indicates that customers feel neglected and undervalued. This pattern points to a pressing need for the company to improve its customer service protocols and enhance accountability to regain consumer trust.
