AT&T
Wireless Service Suspended Over December Balance Before Month Ended

Mobile Phones

My wireless service was suspended about Dec 21. My problem is the balance due was only for the month or December. I had the service restored on Dec. 23rd (I paid the past due balance of $119 that was due for December plus a $5 processing fee and a $35 reconnection fee) and asked the customer rep. how my service could be suspended for a past due balance for December when December had not ended. I was told customers are given only two weeks past their bill due date to pay; otherwise the service is suspended. I feel this is a totally unfair practice designed to make additional money from the public. I receive a small retirement check that covers my rent and often have to wait until my once a month part-time check is direct deposited to pay my bills. Companies should not be allowed to continue this practice and placing and undue burden on the public.
