Whats up ATT&T
I am going to ask this question and I know the diehard Uversers will probably crucify be but is AT&T going to spin off U-Verse?
I have noticed a real attitude with tech support lately call and discuss any specials that might be available to lower your bill and all you get is if you want a cheaper price switch to Direct TV.
In the past we got treated like part of a family and support would bend over backwards to assist Now no specials it is direct TV or the highway.
So I can’t afford Uverse so my choices are Comcast or Direct TV not looking forward to removing snow from my antenna in my wheel chair in subzero weather.
AT&T don’t make it so obvious you don’t want Uverse any more

I have not had a reason to call either tech support or CS lately. My discounts don't expire until the end of the year but after reading some of the posts, I'm getting a little scared that when the time comes, they will not be willing to give long-time user (8+ years) any kind of discount.
I'm not going to have a dish on my roof so TW is my other option. I'm very happy with Uverse and would HATE to leave but you do what you gotta do.
Have you contacted Customer Care to see if there are any options going that route?

I too have been witg Uverse since day one in my area a good number of years The biggest joke was the guy in customer retention all he could say was Direct TV like he was programed.
Two of my friends in this area are having the same problem.
Do you really think customer care can do a thing?

It might be worth a PM before you throw in the towel.
You won't know unless you try.

They were kind enough to listen to me this time but could only muster $10 off U-300 and $10 off Internet.
While i am very grateful for anything, my current bill is close to $100 more than last month. Making me reconsider even though i love U-Verse and have actually sold several people on it. (even though they all forgot to tell ATT so I could get my credit)

I got about $30 off U-300 and internet combined plus a year of the $10 HD waived and still continue to pay nothing for my two additional STBs.
These promos were given to me last month.

I'm not telling anyone what my discounts are for fear that everyone else will expect them and then they won't renew them at the end of the year when they expire.
As my attorney daughter would say "Don't tell too much and only answer questions that you're asked."
