Are we being pushed by AT&T / DirecTV?
For nearly 2 years, I've gotten strange calls from "ATT" from a foreign 3rd party call center I suspected were a bunch of phishing ID thieves. Now, they're warning my DSL Internet "may be interrupted" if I don't 'upgrade' to their U-verse Internet.
And to my amazement, I see they're backed up by OFFICIAL AT&T website!!
This foreboding heads up IS on the OFFICIAL AT&T website--and I've gotten mailed notices that DO appear to be genuine AT&T, albeit the toll free numbers are off by one digit and the service prices also are off by a few dollars ( between the mail letter and what's on the website ).
Are we being corralled into accepting this "upgrade" that really is nothing more than 'controlled inflation'--where we WILL pay more??!! If so, then what can WE do to fight it???
Called AT&T, after it's robo-operator service shuttled me around for about 7 minutes; their "Fraud Dept. rep ( evidently aware calls MAY be "monitored" ) carefully suggested the calls were from scammers....but in the same call, also mentioned AT&T DOES HIRE a "3rd party call center" to relate service upgrades to customers.
But when "ATT" calls my home and I let my voicemail service handle the call---they hang up, just like scammers do!!

System upgrade, but most of the time you also get that information in the mail
Call AT&T yourself. If you have AT&T then call their customer service number and ask them what is going on. Their number is on the statement you get

ATT may be upgrading their infrastructure. If you do not have the correct ADSL router, you will not get online. You get bills or pay online. Go to that website and do an online chat with tech support to see if you are being scammed.

Short answer: They are ELIMINATING the DSL service. If you don't switch to U-verse, your internet service WILL, (not may) be discontinued. The only question is when.
For what its worth, you are ALREADY paying more for the DSL than you would pay for the basic U-verse service.
Source(s): Extensive research before switching from DSL to U-verse last year. - Anonymous4 years ago
