Price Increases??!!!

If the next presidential candidate ran on a platform making every service provider keep the cost the same as when the customer first signed up for it, he would win!  I'm SICK AND TIRED of these providers playing games with their customers!  I signed up for Uverse internet/t.v./voice for $139/month.

Recording same tv series with different titles

I doesn’t look like you can record the same show that has different titles as a series.  U-verse, this is basic and available on most other DVRs.  Every time a new series of survivor comes on I have to make sure to remember to look for it so that I can set it to record again.  I also have the same p

Remove Favorites List

I already have 1 favorites list but another shows up with 0 channels. I never put that in and do not want two favorites lists showing. Please let me know what the steps are to remove the one with 0 channels completely.

Question

After "Select the candidate for removal - OK" suggestion, I pressed OK again and that started checking channels. I backed out of that and instead doing the last "OK", I selected the "enter button", and in there was the delete the list option.

How could you change payment due dates to the first of themonth?

Social Security disability allotments aren't posted until the first of the month.  Is this a ploy to increase your revenue by having your disabled customers incur late-payment charges? For shame. AT&T.
