So, I need to give a HUGE shout out to Tayvon/Customer Service. Someone needs to give that man a raise! He helped me out IMMENSELY today. He went above and beyond what most Customer Service reps do.

Alleged AT&T solicitors came to my door

Has anyone had people saying they're with AT&T come to your door? I had a couple men come to my door trying to sell me on a deal with Direct Tv and offering a "better deal" even after I told them I'm with AT&T and happy with my current service and cost!

A gentleman knocked on my door around 3:30 today wearing a polo shirt that had a large AT&T patch on it saying that he was just informing me AT&T was going to be doing checks and constructions around the area. How do I verify if he was really from AT&T? I've heard stories of criminals casing places

Sounds like you might be a candidate for a non-penetrating mount, which is a steel frame weighted down by cinder blocks.  Its an approved DIRECTV installation method.
