How much data have we used?

With the addition of a smart TV to our home I want to know how much data we are using.   I did a search and found the location where I might estimate how much we would use for various purposes.  But when I check our U-Verse bill I can't seem to find any indication of just how many gigabits of data w

I'm tired of all of the overage charges.

Why did I get a text this morning saying I was being charged another 15$ for more data when my bill says that my.billing cycle starts today? Getting kind of tired of all of the overage charges for such crappy and slow Internet services. Maybe it's time to find another carrier!

Trying to be patient

I have 5 phones and signed up for DirecTV.  I just switched to the unlimited plan when I started getting a $15 overage everyday.  The customer service was terrible and could only stay on script and was more that eager to sign me up for more services while not taking care of my issue.  The old AT&T w

Data Charges Inexplicably Rising

My data charges from AT&T have been inexplicably rising over the past 6 months with not only no change in activity over the past year, but a severe restriction and monitoring of cellular data usage.   The most recent over billing came today by email notification stating I was at 60% of my

iPhone 5 Data Cellular Data Usage on WiFi

Not sure if others have run into this, but I recently received a text from AT&T stating that I was about to use all of my allocated data (IPhone 5) for the month. I found this odd as it was only the 3rd and I usually only use about 75% of my data in the entire month. I checked my usage on my account

Thank goodness I switched and bought a sale data package!

AT&Ts new scam

I have aways loved AT&T but I really feel like the new NEXT family plan is a scam. I used to be grandfathered in to unlimited data and was only using about 10 gb a month for 4 lines. The new plan sounded like a good idea since I never reached 15gbs - ever. Now that I have switched over to the NEXT f

Absurd International data plan billing

I hope AT&T reads this and gets their act together. If you agree, please make your voice heard. The current method of billing international data and voice packages in absurd, ambiguous and down-right deceitful. AT&T forces you to add an international service for a whole month, even if you are using

AT&T: Give us better DSL with higher data caps!!!

Ok I know this complaint is not new and that AT&T couldn't give a rip about building out DSL or, better yet, cable and fiber in rural areas. But I figure the more we complain the better chance of something positive happening. Yes I do believe in fairies and Santa Claus too. I've been an AT&T custome
