Shawna B | 01-09-2022

I called AT&T to renegotiate and the young man said that he could get me fiber for $10 more than what I was paying for the promotion. All they would have to do is come out and trade out the modems. Nothing else. I agreed. When the tech came, he started to tear apart my kitchen wall. Then he went outside and was gone for a bit so I went to check. I'm glad I did because he was about to dig a trench down one side of my house, through the middle of my backyard, and down the other side of my house. WHOA! I said you were only supposed to come and swap the modem. He told me that he's turned away from quite a few jobs because they don't tell people what he needs to do.

They more than doubled the price after the promotion ended. Over $120 for just internet that goes down too much. Wouldn't renegotiate and didn't care that I said I was leaving.
