less competitions = higher prices. BS!

do you know how many car manufactures out there?
ALOT!
then why isnt Mercedes selling under cars under 20,000$ ?
of course you pay more if you want better coverage (att + tmobile towers).
but if you dont want to pay more, get virgin mobile! 35$ for unlimited calls, texts, and web !

I was going to explain the absurdity of this question, but it is easier to point out that Mercedes owns the Smart brand which in fact does sell for less than $20,000.

Your analogy is a bit of a stretch, to say the least...but I ain't gonna try to argue with ya.
mmmm, VM is a prepaid brand of Sprint and does not own their own nationwide network. They are at the mercy of Sprint, who in turn has said that they will ptobably not be able to compete if the duopoly is created.

Way to treat your customers ATT

Sue em' back! 😲

However dissatisfied they are, your not going to keep customers this way.
The merger hasn't even taken place yet, and ATT is already putting the screws to customers.
So with your theory after the merger AT&T is gonna go bankrupt because all there customers will be upset.... The reality is that the MAJORITY of AT&Ts customer think its a good thing. You cant make EVERYONE happy, obviously there are however people ma...

bottom line

So what at&t is saying is that it's own customers have no say in the matter. Oh, silly at&t, you should know better. Each and every one of your customers do have a choice. at&t is not the only wireless provider!
Thats exactly what I got from the above statement.
In all honesty some consumers will not like the proposed changes. Unfortunately you can't make everyone happy. Just as many people that dont like the merger theres more that would love this to happen for improved service and network. AT&T does care a...

Thing is, they do have a say so. They can choose to stay or leave the company. These customers were probably told that their monthly rates would go up, if the merger goes through. I'm not saying that's the only reason these customers agreed to sue but...

I'd advise everyone who thinks this is unfair to take a look at their contracts. Everyone that signs a contract with AT&T signs an arbitration clause. AT&T is simply enforcing that clause. If you think its okay for customers to have the ability to ...

Easy Fix

Require the actual account holder to agree to be part of the lawsuit .. that'll be less than one remaining lawsuit 🤣
What do you mean? Obviously they aren't filing lawsuits on behalf of authorized users...

First world problems...

Mark my words.

AT&T will not raise prices for existing customers, simply because they buy another company.

It's ridiculous to believe they will, when they know people have other choices. And they do...

If you are with AT&T now, and content with what you have, then what's the problem? If you are not content, feel free to try out other carriers, If you are not with AT&T, then why talk at all?

My 2 cents.
Everyone in America wants to sue at any oppurtunity. And we all like to bitch. Plus when you have some firm offering big money and no time of your own, well sign me up to!

1. Preservation of healthy competition and consumer choice.

Try this straw man argument. A certain person chooses not to shop at Walmart. Therefore,...
