AT&T Customers Report Wireless Problems

An unspecified problem put cell phone towers out of service Saturday evening, leaving some AT&T customers without wireless service.

Most of AT&T's wireless network was believed to be working again early Sunday morning. Late Saturday, AT&T tweeted about the issue and said crews were working to restore service.

"Los Angeles area AT&T customers may have issues with wireless service," the company said in a statement. "We are working now to resolve. We apologize for any inconvenience."

Shortcut to personal NBI account?

I naively added a new phone to my personal AT&T Family Plan, not realizing the hell I would encounter trying to port a number from a different market for the new phone.

Reading posts on this site and others, it seems that NBI is the solution, but that a wide rollout of NBI for consumers has been stalled for years. It seems some customers have had luck cajoling their way into business NBI accounts so they could mix numbers from different markets, and some subset of those have then been able to convert back to personal NBI so that they could regain OLAM, or add a FAN, etc.

I'm wondering if there is any shortcut through this maze of semi-deceit, whereby I could find some department at AT&T willing to convert me directly to a personal NBI ...

You get a 4G LTE tablet, your first tablet with a contract... and it's $700 WITH the contract for a higher data plan? Really? ☹️

AT&T, T-Mobile pledge to bring 5,000 jobs to US

WASHINGTON (AP) — AT&T Inc. is pledging to bring 5,000 wireless call center jobs, currently based abroad, back to the U.S. if it is allowed to proceed with its proposed $39 billion acquisition of T-Mobile USA.

The company is also promising that the merger would not result in any job losses for AT&T and T-Mobile USA wireless call center employees who are on the payroll in the U.S. when the deal closes.

AT&T's commitment to repatriate jobs comes as antitrust regulators at the Federal Communications Commission and the Justice Department ramp up their reviews of a combination that is certain to reshape the wireless industry's landscape.

AT&T, the nation's second-largest wireless carrier, is seeking government approval to buy T-Mob...

Phone batteries

After watching this site for several years and owning many phones (currently IP4). the improvements and technology is amazing. My question, there doesn't seem to be much improvement in the batteries. Phones can to most everything, but the battery life seems just as poor as couple years ago. Wife seems to have to charge her I4 by the middle of the afternoon everyday. Is there any big improvements coming.

Leaving Sprint for AT&T. Should I wait for any new phone or more of the same?

Was with AT&T for a couple years. Left for Sprint due to the HTC EVO.

Over the past few weeks Sprint coverage has gotten noticeably worse so I’m heading back to AT&T. All the Android phones seem pretty much the same, anything on the horizon that is worth waiting for? I’m not interested in the iphone 5,6 or 7.
Thanks,

ATT is breaking my contract and there's nothing I can do about it? Is this fair ?

I'm an ATT Blue customer for the past 7 years. I did my 2 yr requirement, then went on a month to month basis. I've been paying $43 including taxes for 2 phones with 1000 minutes.

Now ATT is closing down the system that my phone runs off of by saying my phone won't work on their new system (3G). Well that's a lie because I loaned my phone to my graddaughter to use temporarily when her's broke and she put her 3g card in and it worked and even did an upgrade to my phone, when ATT kept telling "me" there were no upgrades availale.

So now with the forced switch I have to choose a new plan, which will make my new monthly chg is $80 per month for the same amount of minutes. And if I get a smartphone I'm forced to have a data plan.

The co...

AT&T Claims It Hasn't Planned How It's Going to Integrate T-Mobile

Splendid. 😲


In the "that's kind of hard to believe" department, AT&T's lawyers claim to the FCC that the company has no idea how it's going to integrate its $39B USD prospective purchase into the company and that it has formed no plans to that extent.

It writes (pg. 10)

AT&T will not be in a position to make any final determinations about possible changes in T-Mobile USA until it is able to obtain more detailed information about the operations of the company, which will occur later in the acquisition process. In addition, any preliminary plans are subject to the outcome of the regulatory process. AT&T has not yet begun detailed integration planning efforts.


It reasserts its lack of planning later on, stating (pg

Too funny! iPhone 5 ahead of ATT's 4G.


AT&T was recently found installing LTE gear in Apple stores to give the illusion of better LTE coverage.

??? Best AT&T Phone that works good w/Ford Sync

Anyone know of the best phone to get on AT&T that works great with Ford Sync system? I prefer a regular flip style phone - not iPhone or PDA. I also need to be able to get software for the phone that syncs contacts with Outlook and tethering if possible.

I currently have a Nokia 6650 and although it pairs with Sync on my 2009 Ford Fusion, it does not transfer the address book so I cannot dial by saying someone's name. Otherwise, this has been a fantastic phone. It does tethering and syncs with Outlook with Nokia's free software.

I would appreciate a recommendation from someone who is using their phone on a Ford Sync equipped vehicle.

Thanks!

TMO pumps out more smartphones while ATT still relies on iPhone

This is kind of a good article. TMO has over the last few years been pumping out new and HSPA + capable smartphones while ATT has been giving us more crap (HTC Status) and continually relying on the iPhone.
Will the bigger choice of devices disappear if the ATT/TMO merger is approved? 😕
