AT&T Revamps ETF Policies
You still pay too much...
If you go by the truest definition of "proration" then the term fee should adjust based upon equal amounts spread over contract term. With AT&T's new policy, if you cancel with 2 months remaining you still end up paying $125 Term Fee in a one year and $65 on a two year. The second amount is not that bad, unless you look at the idea proposed above. On a one year and cancelling at month 10 you would only pay roughly $30 and on a two year only about $15.00. They are still holding onto the idea that you have to recoup the device cost. You get less of a discount on a one year so there is less to recoup. Just proof that wireless carriers still hold onto ancient ideas and thoughts long after these have been proven bad business.

Sure they do. They also offer 0 year committment. It a comes down to how much you want to front for the device upfront.
