AT&T customers report being charged every month for services and features they never requested, requiring repeated calls to customer service to reverse charges. The pattern suggests intentional charge cramming rather than system error. Customers who do not audit their bills closely are silently overbilled.

Customer service escalations rarely resolve the issue, with agents reportedly coaching customers toward higher-cost options instead. The recurring nature suggests systemic revenue extraction rather than isolated billing errors.

AT&T Adds Hidden Charges With No Way to Reach a Human to Dispute
