On December 06, 2011 I called and ordered AT&T's Uverse internet service. During that conversation, the amount of $19".95 + taxes for the service is confirmed several times/. When I received my bill, this amount was not reflected so I called customer service!. They informed me that the representative had made a mistake in providing that rate to me without an additional qualifying service". I told them that their internal mistakes weren't my fault and that I wanted what they quoted me at the time service was ordered:. Of course they wouldn't budge even after I told them I had recorded the conversation and threatened to contact my state attorney general's office citing "bait-n-switch" tactics,. I ended up talking to a “Manager” who promised me that he would look into this and call me back within the hour…he never called back…what a surprise!/. Having been victimized by service providers on a consistent basis in the past, I recorded this call:. I reviewed the original recording and documented the indexes where pertinent statements were made by the AT&T rep regarding service costs.

I have been trying to get internet service since september...  

I have spent over 6 hours on hold with these people. I have been transferred to numerous technicians and specialists. All are apologetic and say they "will make it right" ... I just got a paper statement in the mail.. my 14.95 (17 and change including tax) promo internet is not reflected.. instead I owe them 95 dollars. Someone please explain how 95 dollars is like 17?!!?!?!
