Thanks Captainobvvious! Yah saved me $42!!!
Big thanks to "Captainobvvious" for starting this thread! I just saved my Mom $42 bucks by getting that lame a$$ "upgrade fee" waived! Merry New Year Captain & Cheers!
Here's the transcript on my chat with an ATT Rep online that took all of 10 min's...named changed to protect the (not so) innocent.
Thank you for your patience! Your AT&T Representative will be with you shortly.
Welcome! You are now chatting with 'ATT Rep'
Me: Good evening. I recently signed a 2 year contract extension and upgraded to a new phone. I was hoping I could have my upgrade fee waived or credited to my account since I have been an ATT customer for many, many years.
ATT Rep: Hi (Me) nice to have you in this chat with me. Thanks as well for being part of AT&T for these past years. Let me look in to the account and see what I can do for
your request.
ATT Rep: Thanks for waiting. I see the charge now & reviewed the account as well. Let me work on waiving the fee now.
Me: Thank you.
ATT Rep: You're welcome, one moment please
Me: I was just getting ready to pay my bill and was surprised to see that charge as I've experienced billing errors in the past.
ATT Rep: I see, let me waive it first before you process the payment
Me: Great, thank you again. Good start to the new year!
ATT Rep: I agree
ATT Rep: Are you still logged in to *your account?
Me: Yes
ATT Rep: The fee has been waived, to see the amount change please log out then log back in, then you can process the payment after
Me: Ok let me try.
ATT Rep: sure
Me: Ok, I see it now. Thank You (ATT Rep), I appreciate it!
ATT Rep: It's my pleasure, will there be anything else for now?
Me: Nope, that's it. Have a good night & Happy New Year!
ATT Rep: Same to you. Thanks for allowing me to assist you today, I hope you are satisfied with my service, as well as with AT&T. Happy New Year as well
...good luck & remember the 4 P's, "Positive & Patient Perseverance, Pays-off!"
Cheers & Merry New Year!
