Rate increase

[britboy007]

It seems that my rate has increased for the second month in a row.  My current package is now almost $200 a month and that doesn't include any pay per view channels. I find this unusal given the state of the economy and the number of competitors now available.  If I try and call AT&T I usually get disconnected from a customer support person before I can state my frustration.  Does AT&T really care about my business or would they prefer I switch to a lower rate being offered by a competitor?  I just don't understand this thought process.  Will AT&T try and call me after I switch and want my business back like DirecTV did?

Have you compared one month's bill to the next to see what the increases may be?

Unless you had a promotional rate that expired in the last two months there is no reason your rates should have gone up.  The only time AT&T raises rates is in February and it's typically $5 or less.  Take a look at your bills and compare them and take JefferMC's advice and send a PM to Customer Care.
