at and t AT and T next is a ripoff Nationwide
I know that AT and T will do nothing about this as they don't care and are too big to care. I have been with ATT / cingular since 1995. Just google the word ATT ripoff and see all that pops up.
I am eligible for an upgrade for 3 family plan phones. I chose the 2 year contract and was shown an absolutely free phone (note 4) online. Then I was told that by upgrading I would lose my $75.00 total credit per month. So in 2 years using the next plan, I would lose a total of 1800.00 or 600.00 for each FREE phone. They want everyone to be on the next plan as this is how they make money but what they say is that some people don't like contracts. (I do)
I was told by sales online that if I pay 1958.00 and buy the phones outright I would keep my credit of 75.00 per month (this is paying 150.00 more???? than with the next plan).
This system is not much different than all the money being made by car dealers with 7 year car loans.
AT and T does not learn its lesson well. They had roll over, took it away, then years later brought it back. They had unlimited data, made us buy blocks of data, and now are giving huge date packages for little money. So eventually AT and T will go back to giving a choice of contract or no contract which it does not have at the moment essentially.
Are Americans really this stupid? I think so if they fall for the next plan without doing homework..

YES!! the American Consumer REALLY is that stupid!!! The American Consumer is a self entitled, spoiled, ignorant, uninformed, childish, and basically BLIND!!! I see it everyday here on RoR. People YOU should and would consider bright intelligent people, making stupid mistakes and BLAMING anyone else BEFORE they will EVER admit that THEY might have screwed up. They don't READ!!! They don't PROTECT THEMSELVES!!! They buy a item they see in a ad on the web and then scream SCAM when the reality is that THEY couldn't be BOTHERED to take a few moments of time and use a BASIC skill. They REFUSE to accept that THEY have either CAUSED or FABRICATED a issue. To THEM its much easier to blame everyone else instead of damaging their PRECIOUS self image. As I see it, its been pretty much since President Clinton that the American Consumer has LOST whatever integrity it MIGHT have had. Ever since Clinton DENIED his actions, we have seen the American Consumer do the same thing. Personally I PRAY that we as a collective nation will be able to GROW UP again.
