re: AT&T is the shittiest company ever but is a monopoly for TV and Interenet

AT&T is a bunch of chucklefricks but I’ve heard far worse about Comcast.
It’s like a requirement to be a cable company is to be as fricking incompetent and user-unfriendly as possible.

They've been charging my card for Sunday Ticket from like 2015 but despite multiple calls over several years they can't find the account it's supposedly on. I dispute it with AMEX who just dutifully takes it off every month and tells AT&T to frick off because they can't provide support for it.
Why can't AMEX just give you a new card with different account number?

Holy shite dude I’m having the same problem. I switched to Gigabit last spring and merged my internet and Direct TV accts. Around October I started getting calls from some random Mississippi number. Turns out its a collection agency. Say I owe $275 to AT&T. Call AT&T and they show my account as current and have no record of any past due balances. Called the collection company back and ended up getting real shitty with the bitch on the phone before hanging up.
Just got another letter in the mail from another company that apparently bought the debt. I can’t get anything from AT&T to put an end to this and I’m not sure what else to do at this point.

then what story would he have to tell

You call the Public Service Commission.
Have all your details and account info laid out so a 6 year old can understand the issue and your latest bill already scanned.
Then it’s simple to forward the info and let them handle it.
Hopefully you logged each call to AT&T to support your story. Supply that too. Date, time, number dialed, the series of people you spoke to. Their AT&T ID number, their resolution to complete.
When ever they transfer you to another department, ask for that direct number, should you get cut off.

Seriously...just because you have a terrible experience with customer service (probably more of an issue with you, not them), doesn't mean they are a terrible company.

Glad someone else knows this struggle

I've had issues like that in the past with ATT. I couldn't get anywhere with them either, so I filed a complaint with my State's Attorney General's office. It got fixed real quick after that.

What appropriate timing - I just got off the phone with them. I hate them so much and I'm only 2 months into my service. When I signed up, I was told we'd get 3 months of HBO, Skinemax, etc. for free and, most importantly, a free year of NFL Sunday Ticket. Once it was set up, no HBO or any other premium channels. When I call to biatch, they tell me that my plan doesn't qualify for those channels but I can get them for an additional costs. Of course, I keep biatching and they pass me up the chain until someone gets tired of me and gives me free access to it.
So before the NFL season kicks off, I call so the same crap doesn't happen. Same result. Some poor asian/indian SOB named "Mike" or "Kelly" says I don't qualify, but I can have it added to my plan for an additional cost. Again, I complain enough to get transferred 3 or 4 times before they finally cave and agree give me access to what I originally signed up for. We shall see what happens on Sunday.
Okay - rant over.

This is from like 3 cards ago, certain recurring charges roll over automatically on AMEX. I'll probably get around to seeing what AMEX can do about it at some point this season, I just hate getting new cards.

That happened to us last year. I finally got it resolved by going into the ATT Store (in Town Center if you are in BR) and they fixed it for me. This was after numerous phone calls to ATT&T.

Congrats!! Top level idiotic response there.

I’ve had pretty good luck using chat with AT&T.
Always use chat for any customer service if that option is available.
