AT&T phone bill

[iphoneofcapecod]

I just looked at my bill on line -- WOW 160$ bucks. I got the phone 7-5-07
I did not make one call with it -- what a rip off they are - bty they have no support / customer service 24-7 LIKE THE BIG GUYS DO- also they claim " they have more bars in more areas then others -- HAHA right I have to go to the end of my driveway to get a bar to make a call...

I wouldn't say you signing up for wireless service, and getting charged regardless of the fact YOU chose to not make "one call with it", justifies AT&T as a complete rip off.

Just my 2 cents.

EDIT: Too add something that could possibly add a positive note for you, the minutes that you paid for roll over into next month. Something not all the "BIG GUYS" do.

Negatory on that one.

Rollover minutes don't start until the second month. They want to make sure you stay with them for longer than a month.

Wait for the second bill and
start saving

I did not use the phone because I still have t-mobile - waiting for the contract to run out then port my number over to AT&T - It's too bad that apple selected AT&T - I hope someone comes out with a unlock code

I just got my first bill... $266... They charge for the first and last month plus $50 activation fee plus $16 tax. I'm on a $100/month plan.

At first the way you spoke made it sound like just because you didn't make any calls, you expected AT&T for some reason to cut your bill. You signed up for that plan (and AT&T pro-rates charges) so it's really the figure you should of expected.

Oh and sorry about the rollover mistake, that logic makes sense now that I think about it.

My bill is $170.00 My plan is the basic plan with unlimited texting. I got my phone on July 20th, and this bill is due August 23rd. It's a little more than I expected, does this sound normal everyone? I just want to make sure I'm not being overcharged.

I've got you all beat. My bill wa $558.14!

I called in and an embarrassed representative admitted that someone had screwed up and charged me a $499.90 Wireless Internet Pay Per Use fee.

Double-Check your bill.
