Thats good to hear, glad they were able to do something.
As for them being scared about verizon, at&t has always given me good customer service, they've always been good about being more "human" and understanding of your situation and bending the rules for you without you even asking. I've gotten overages credited back when I was calling to set up a payment plan because I couldn't afford the whole bill when it was due and they did this without me asking or anything, i just called to see if I could pay half this month and the other half 2 weeks later. They've also done the same when I call in to get bumped up to another plan, they automaically credited back any overage before hand again without me asking. One of the big reasons I'll never go to verizon.
