Telecom Store Reps Activate Devices Against Customer Explicit Instructions

AT&T in-store representatives activate devices against customers' stated wishes, bypassing the return window and leaving customers stranded without phone service. No mechanism exists to reverse unauthorized activations within the grace period, forcing customers to choose between an unwanted device and loss of service continuity. This reflects a broader gap in consumer protection for retail telecom transactions.
