On SmartCustomer, businesses may not offer incentives or pay to remove reviews. Learn more about our Review Guidelines.
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.

AT&T store, website, and call center, no service what's happening on the other two services. If you're getting a refund, don't get excited after your first call to the call center. Waite for at least 3-6 months.
AT&T is horrible. Impossible to talk to anyone and get resolution. They are a scam. Talk to anyone of their employees and they will say the same. Capital greed. Account holder has been deceased for 4 years and AT&T refuses to stop invoicing even after death certificate shown.
Why does ATT punish their prepaid account holders.
ATT does not offer 5G network on all of their prepaid accounts.
I have two phones and I also have auto payment and I have been an ATT customer for decades.
I was told my prepaid plan is an older plan and doesn't include 5G service. Only one of my phones is 5G compatible.
I would think that at least, ATT could offer me access to the 5G network on my one phone, that is compatible.
Maybe ATT could upgrade my plan with a $5 surcharge to allow me to use my 5G phone as intended.
Only ATTs' highest and most expensive prepaid plan has 5G network access. Why is that?
To look at their advertising, you would think the 5G service is included in ALL of their plans.
Don't they call that, "bait and switch"? "false advertising"?
Why is ATT so cheap with the 5G networking?
Other carriers have 5G network included with ALL their plans.
Why doesn't ATT give seniors some sort of discount or break?
THEEE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALL AROUND VALUE EVER! My guardian angel Cassandra and her manager hooked me up more then I've ever been before by any phone carrier. I'm now a life long customer of at&t and have a personal customer service agent who's as easy to reach as my mother on the holidays. After untold amounts of frustrating and lengthly customer service interactions over the years it's all finally over. My bank info and other personal info is in ONE pair of trusted and familiar hands not 10 different people from around the globe.
HUGE SHOUT OUT TO...
The Meadville PA AT&T store
and special shout out to
CASSANDRA AND HER LOVELY SUPERVISOR EVALYN D.@ AT&T
Hands down best service and value me or my wife have seen of ANY company let alone a globally recognized multi billion dollar giant of a company like AT&T where u would totally not expect such a "with ur best interest in mind" and personal trusting familiar envirnment. Across the board. To ever take place.
ALSO WORTH NOTING
At&t and TMobile are the only 5g providers that have a coverage map that doesn't look like you shot a map with a paintball major companies like Verizon and Sprint have a 5g coverage of just over 10% unless u live in a big city... if u want. TRUE 5g
GO WITH AT&T
I've had em all and I can with confidence say that AT&T is IN EVERY WAY the best
I was an AT&T customer since it was Cingular! Once they changed to AT&T EVERYTHING went down the toilet with this company. Their customer service is the WORST! Every time I have to call their customer service line, I end up being on the phone for no less than 3 HOURS! And they STILL don't get my request correct. The last straw was I wanted to pay off the phone that I had financed with them and also pay my bill. I told them I have an automatic payment set up, but for this one time, I would like to pay my bill and phone balance on my credit card... Three hours later! She said everything was paid. The next morning, I check my bank balance and AT&T took their payment. Then I check my credit card, and they hit that also! For the past two nights, I have been on the phone with AT&T trying to get the Billing dept. to understand (because they don't speak good ENGLISH) that they owe me money! AT&T is saying they issued a credit-on-credit card on 1/12/2022. I call my credit card company today (2/4/2022) and I conference call the credit card company, AT&T, and my Bank who are all saying NO CREDIT ISSUED! So now they transfer us to another department and this department is saying they cannot find my account! Because I canceled it! OMFG!
THE
THE MORAL OF THE STORY**** AT&T IS NO GOOD! GO TO A DIFFERENT COMPANY!
The way they roped us in was by basically telling us that our bills would be the same or cheaper than we were paying at the time but Maury says that was a lie. I'm paying almost 30 dollars more and my husband's is 15 dollars more. Their second pitch was the whole "5g everywhere" spiel but we both have trouble with service constantly. Even in places where there really is no excuse. We were driving through Toledo Ohio. No reason to not have service in a city like that. I had more luck with straight talk and if I'd brought my own phone I would switch back so quick.
Signed up for AT&t month and a half ago haven't had one single week where it worked correctly living old complex wires are bad however they did not let me know that if I signed on I will get the lower speed but at a regular price due to them not really being able to service this with the broadband Court the wires are old and rotted and yet they still use deceptive practices to get you to sign on! It's obvious why they stay on the court docket
Been going on 10 days and honestly I have no clue what is happening. How can a major company not be more proactive in fixing issues? I can't get a refund UNTIL the issue is fixed? I have no service! But lord do they push the sales pitch. "Care to learn about joining our wireless plan?"
Ordered a SIM card to switch to their services from straight talk assuming that with a larger more long standing company I would receive better overall service. Total joke. Spent almost an hour trying to get my number switched over to them and their customer service agent told me everthing was all set while myself and my straight talk agent stayed in the line. Then a week later I get an email saying the switch was cancelled. All after spending almost an hour with my current provider and getting the number switched. They are complete morons and completely incompetent at what they do. Not worth the switch and I'll stay with straight talk as their customer service has always been better than this. What a joke of a company
You know I have had Att service for almost 2 years and it seems as though the bill keeps going up! I got on a contract with these leaches and I when my bill would've been a little over a hundred dollars now it is coming to 200 a month! Not to mention I also have cell phone service with this company. You'd think because this is during a pandemic they wouldn't fluctuate the bills because now it seems every month they are draining me dry. As soon as I find a different company I will cut all ties with these leaches! Beware! They will take your utility money, your money for food, gas, and whatever else you have just do they can get paid for their over priced service!
I was told if you suspend your line you only have to pay for the cost of the phone. For three months straight i been paying for the phone and service. I recieved a credit for two months. I called back this month and they told me that it was an inconvenience credit. Say what? I have been lie to from the store and from customer service. Anything for a sale i guess. I would not recommend AT&T to know one. They dont know how to treat their customers and dont give a damn as long as they get paid... I much rather go with a prepaid phone then have to deal with them...
And they just don't seem to care! And, when calling to get assistance with issues, we usually transferred outside the USA. And, the people read from a script! Explaining to them what they are saying isn't resolving a issue, they start reading the script again Fro The Top! Disgusting!
Once again, AT&T continues to convince me that I made a bad decision by switching from Verizon to AT&T. I was continually having calls - important calls - blocked and sent to voicemail and nothing I did changed it. Went online and discovered that AT&T has a call-blocking app they had installed (without my permission) on my phone. I uninstalled that but the blocking continued. I went to an AT&T store to fix this and replace a malfunctioning Otterbox case I bought from them. They fixed the blocking issue, but were not willing to refund or replace the screwed up case - saying I needed to take it up with Otterbox or their main store on Louisiana. I had to fix the problem of a bad case THEY had sold me. WOW! Once again, great service! There is so much more I could write about - deceptive and untrue sales claims about monthly savings, etc. And I'd like to mention, I have had more dropped calls in the year I've had AT&T than in the 40+ years I was with Verizon. That is a Fact. So why did I switch? Bad decision. They suckered me in with a "free" phone which actually turned out not to be free.
NEVER GET THIS INTERNET IT IS ABSOLUTELY WORSE THING $5 internet would be better than this internet and it is not good for anything you can't game on it you can't even watch a show on it without loading in the time that loads is longer than the actual movie usually and you get an average about 100 to 200 pink in just about all games so yeah that's AT&t for you this is the worst company for internet and we went lost our internet or 3 weeks because their customer service sucks and the people that they send out here do not know what they're doing and they're just an overall really bad company
At&t offers me a bogo promotion buy one god the second free, pay for 3 months and then you only pay for one cellphone, after 3 months the thief company still charged me for the free telephone i went though the whole company speaking whit them and no one help me.
Att has the worst customer service. Your talking to a computer rather than a person that can understand and comprehend. They suspend and deactivate your account with less than the minimum payment due. The bill always comes in 2 weeks rather than monthly And they give you no grace period. If there was a better option for Wi-Fi or cell service I would jump immediately.
Their "customer service" is utterly useless and will waste hours of your time. I have wasted 17 hours since I switched to att, because of issues they caused. If you want to talk to someone and have them take care or a problem or do a simple task good luck. They will run you around in circles trying to sell you random stuff while you are asking them to do a simple task. Their website will not allow you to do simple things like remove a line you no longer need, which every other carrier does. They force you to call them and waste between 1-3 hours of your personal time. I would not recommend att to anyone unless I hated that person and even then its probably to harsh of a thing to do. All of this on top of the wireless service being sub par and intermittent. You can pay for their most expensive wireless plan and not be able to open a web browser without it taking 2-3 min to load a webpage. The have more deadspots than a cemetery.
I'm very upset this company has had me on hold at least 20 times, they keep asking me for a passcode that doesn't exist I've told these idiots at least 20 times and they keep doing the same if you want a nightmare sign on with these fools, IV received no help at all after waiting if you passed third grade then be smart don't use theses fools Mrs Rebecca was most helpful. Thats 1 person out of 21 people. There is a lot or incompetent employees at this company
I moved from Verizon to AT&T to save some cash.
I was told I would be getting a plan tat was half my phone bill plus basically a free phone. I think I am now paying the same if not more. The service was of course going to be a down grade but it wasn't a little thing: it was noticeable.
I am now wondering it I would of saved money never switching.
Worst service ever. Their shop manager - a male in Seattle Pacific place mall store - was aggressive and rash and tried to get physical with me - a woman. Then their customer care took away my service and it was not working for 24 hours and they did not give a reason. I would advise you to get ANY other service but this one
Answer: Terrible service, this is the worst service I've ever had. Canceled all services with this company after my customer service experience. Customer service is horrible, their service in general is horrible, and they don't offer anything I can't get at any other competitors store. I wouldn't recommend service or work with this company, they are discriminatory and bias. All they do is take advantage of you and try to sell you stuff that you don't need so they can raise their commission. If you want to be serviced by a bunch of dilettantes, this is the place for you, bad service, work, and experience, Joshua at legacy village has terrible customer service experience.
Answer: At this point I am so disgusted with a T and T your customer service skills are horrible they don't help you out they keep transferring you to different departments just to get you off the phone they do not like to resolve problems and promises that they made they do not keep their promises they get you into getting into their products and getting their commission and then they screw you out of what they promise you I do advise anybody to go through a TNT they are lousy
Answer: Because they never really will cancel your service! They overcharge you and when you finally get a hold of them they still refuse to help.
Answer: To answer your question, Simply there is no accountability at AT&T. They bounce you around and they make NO attempt for resolution.
Answer: I use to work for AT&T, they have gone from bad to worse to I don't give a damn, and that's a shame
Answer: That is just silly. He wldnt be a multi millionaire if his businesses were bad. You forget, everybody loved him till he announced he was conservative. Isn't it all the democratic mayor's and governor's states that are going to shit? Or would you rather take crime over parent choice?
