Lawsuit Accuses AT&T of Inflating iPhone and iPd Data Usage

Not surprised! I've had some outrageous phone bills, especially when traveling abroad, and have called AT&T numerous times fighting to get my bill adjusted.

a four-month study that determined AT&T inflates data consumption figures by an average of 7% to 14% and sometimes as much as 300%.

I suggest going over your bill with a fine toothed comb from now on.

That's probably how they can afford to lower the price of the 3GS. The world we live in.

its outrageous that they don't have an unlimited data package...

they used to...

and their competitors offer an unlimited data package...

I worked for AT&T

I was the responsible for setting up T1 and T3 broadband internet to corporations...

I had some high profile customers...

I spoke directly to several CEO's...

For my services AT&T charged the client 5000 dollars...

(I got paid 10 bucks a hour... to do a job that elsewhere requires a college degree to do... and other places pay 25 bucks a hour...)


not to mentioned the other 25,000 dollars it cost to actually get things set up on site...

AT&T's internet was so horrible, that half the time it was down at my office...

Our phones there was VOIP... they required the internet...

I felt like laughing when i was helping someone set up their AT&T internet from a cell phone...

because the the internet at my office wasnt working... meaning my office phone was out...

AT&T is a joke

Heck the programs i had to use, hadn't been updated in 10 years...
AT&T issued software... that was meant to assist clients in getting their service...
and their software was so slow... you could type a word... and it would sometimes be 20 minutes before it appeared on screen...

and... nope not a computer problem... it was fast... but the software sucked...


sorry had to vent
