Home phone service is horrible.
I have had AT&T Uverse home phone service for a couple months now & it's horrible. I'm now locked in for 2 years & am not going to be able to handle this.
First problem is half of my calls never reach me. My daughter & husband call frequently & end up calling my cell phone asking where I am. I am at home not answering the phone because it never rang.
Next problem is dialing out. I dial the number & it either gives me a busy signal or says not possible on the phone's LCD screen. Sometimes I need to try 2 or 3 times before it finally goes through.
Next problem is calls going dead/dropping (both inbound & outbound). I can be in the middle of a conversation & I hear a click-click noise, dead air & then the dial tone. This is extremely frustrating especially when calling someplace where you have to dial 1 for English, enter another # for the dept. you want & then have to put in your account #. I finally get a live person & click-click, cut off & have to start all over.
My husband has a job where he has to be on call for work issues & I also have my elderly, disabled sister living with us. We need reliable phone service. I had a service call & he checked everything, put in some silver box (Belkin battery back-up) which he said the initial installer forgot. Then he gave me a stupid story about my account being past due. It was 2 days past due, when I paid it, which was a couple days before the repairman came over.
Is that the Mickey Mouse type of service I can expect? You're late with your payment, so they're going to screw up your service. Not happy. Not happy at all.
Any fixes?

@suec55 Contact ATT Uverse Care on the link in my signature.
Send them a private message, on this link, and they should be able to give the help needed to solve your Uverse Uvoice service problems. They are available M-F 8am-11pm Eastern time (also around on weekends), response may take up to 2 business days.
This is not the regular CS/TS phone people, but the social media Community Specialists that know the people to contact to get things done. I personally know as they've helped me on a DVR swap.
Include your account#, email address and a good phone # (land or cell) and time to contact you on. Check the blue PM envelope, upper right on every page, for their reply. Good luck 😉

Hi @suec55 ,
I am so sorry about the issues you are having with your phone service, but I will be glad to help. One thing to try is to connect a phone directly to the back of the U-verse router. If it ends up working, then, there may be an issue with the inside wiring or a device connected to the inside wiring causing issues.
If it still has problems, there may be an issue with the U-verse router or with the phone call getting relayed across.
I definitely can help you out with either situation. I will send you a private message to gather more information.
