Re: Experience
@ariella I've never had a bad experience with an AT&T rep, now that I think about it. It's just AT&T's practices & policies make for a poor customer experience (IMHO)

Re: Experience
@faryl - it's so funny that you say you never had a bad experience with an AT&T rep. I remember when I was a kid (maybe like 12-14) my Mom had a TERRIBLE experience with an AT&T rep. I actually remember the phone call it was that bad, and she was THAT mad. To this day (dare I say decades - later) she still won't use AT&T. And she brings up that phone call any time they're mentioned.

Re: Experience
@faryl The question is if other services in the area actually do better. Having a good rep, though, can make the difference between pushing an annoyed customer off your services altogether or reinforcing loyalty. For example, I use a pay-as-you-go phone, an inexpensive service that is not even offered to the public any more. But becaues I'm already a customer, I asked to get it put on another phone for somoene in my family, and the rep arranged it. Also one time, when I had to refill because the time allotted for the last refill was about to expire even though I still had a lot of money left on the account, the rep arranged to extend the time another 3 months without requiring a payment. I didn't ask for that; it was offered. It's really not a large amount of money involved, but it's a nice gesture on the telecom's part.
