Billing fiasco
Let me start by telling you that my bill is due on August 16th. I have been a customer of ATT since 1973 for home phone, 1991 for wireless and 2010 for Uverse with no late payments on any of the accounts ever. On Wednesday, 08/12, I received an email stating that my payment has not been received and when can ATT expect payment. This morning I received a recorded message that my payment still has not been received and I need to send it in ASAP or call and make payment arrangements. So I call the billing department to find out what is going on. The rep didn't have a clue as what is going on with my account (typical of a script reader). She tells me that it is collections initiating the call and email. I asked to speak to a supervisor and got the "typical response, no one is available but she will have someone call me ASAP". That was at 10:22 this AM. Still no call (why am I surprised by no call, that is the ATT way). The whole time that I am on this call the rep keeps telling me that I am a valuable customer. This is a heck of a way to treat a valuable customer. I did check with my bank before calling and my electronic payment was sent at 3:22 AM.

The reason I was told this is bc I was told by a supervisor in LA , to tell him to stop calling me over and over ( he asked me to call Direct Tv to cx their great deal(56$ a month !) & take UVERSE SO THEY CAN GIVE ME BETTER BUNDLE SERVICE!!!!
it is all such a scam I am so disgusted!!!
What advice do you have for me at the end of the call she said oh by the way you do have to pay a reconnection fee and it's going to be over 200 and something dollars do it the day of service which is one week from today and quite frankly I don't have it I have a great credit score I paid off all my credit cards!!! They have zero help for your cell phone bills which I'm out of contract but I just was so disgusted and tired I just wanted to get them off the phone and I also am a very good customer which they reiterated . Advice?

I had Directv for 151/2 years before uverse. I left because the customer service went from mediocre good to downright awful. Uverse customer service is about the same as Directv. Now as far as ATT wireless goes I am completely satisfied. I was going out of the country last year and called customer service to put the international plan on for a month. The rep was great. He also told me about some new programs that had just come out and I ended up saving $38 a month with more data. Uverse should use the trainers and supervisors that the wireless division use. I have been in sales and management for a number of years and ATT and Directv customer service is the worst I have ever encountered. When you get a offshore rep just ask for a rep in the US. That's what I did this morning but it didn't help.
