No Tracking Number for returned phone. AT&T says it hasn't been received and Customer Service is useless.

Why does AT&T continue to lie after being a 20+ yr customer about trade-in credit?

I've personally spent over 8+ hrs over the last 4yrs on phone calls with AT&T reps with a promise to get the trade-in credits we were told we'd get for trading in our phones.  I finally gave up on the last phone my son got, but now I'm really getting (Edited per community guidelines) that it's happe

Is it AT&T policy to have customers fix and resolve issues that AT&T created?

I went into a store on Sunday to upgrade my phone. I specifically wanted to get the iPhone 14 Pro Max but unfortunately they did not have that one in the store, understandably since the iPhone 15’s are the newest phones. They told me that they will order it and it will be shipped. I was happy with t
