AT&T Wireless
Overcharging and refusing to disconnect services

I have been with AT&T wireless for 4 years and my contract is up on Feb 13. I called the company to disconnect services on the 13 the and was told that I could but I would be charged $60 per line and I have 5 lines and was then told I had to wait till the end of the billing cycle which is the 23rd. So I put in a request to disconnect all services on the 23rd. Well, I just got a bill that was $30 higher then normal. When I called to disconnect they put unlimted text on one line which was $20 then I was charged for text alert on my husbands line. Well, I have text and internet blocked on that line and my husband doesn't even know how to send a text message so what does he need text alert for? Gail told me it was a simple fix, just text on the phone to text alert the word stop and it will only cost me 20 cents to do that. Also charged for 2 long distance calls that should be covered as I did not go over my minutes. The free phones are aweful, they are cheaply made and die right before the 2 years are up so that you take another 2 year contact to get a free phone. Oh, and good luck getting a voicemail, well, you do get them 2 or 3 days later. Not to good when you are left a message that a family member has died and you get the voicemail 2 days later. If the service is so good why do you bind people to a contract. The customer service is awful and with Alejandro I had to wait on hold every time I asked a question so he could find an answer. Alejandro said I can call on the 13th and that I could have the service cut off at that time and no further bill. So I asked for his identifcation # and he said he could only give me his name. Also I would have to pay the full bill and the credit would be given the next billing cycle. Unreal.
