AT&T Charges More Than Agreed Promotional Price After Customer Switches Carriers

Customers who switch to AT&T based on quoted pricing are subsequently billed significantly more than the agreed promotional rate. This pricing deception is compounded by poor service quality that fails to justify any premium. Telecom customers have no easy mechanism to enforce verbal pricing agreements or escalate billing disputes.
