Customer service is a joke. After talking to Robocop I am put on hold, then bounced around for twenty minutes I get people who don't speak English very well. This has been going on for two months. AT&T doesn't have any trouble when it comes to billing me.

Having the same issues again. I cleared the cache, changed password now it say unable to contact server. Our sub accounts work, this is frustrating as I can't change emails from online bills without having access to this account. Any phone number I can call?

I am a long time AT&T subscriber. I can no longer gain access to my business e-mail account at sbcglobal.net. The account will not recognize my current password and even then I have tried to use any and all passwords that I can remember ever having used with an e-mail account, but to no avail. Still do not have access. And I cannot seem to get any help with this through either SBCglobal, AT&T, or Yahoo. I would be happy just to abandon this account, but first I would need to send out an e-mail blast to most of my contacts, informing them of my new e-mail address. Which, of course, I am unable to do, because I cannot access the account and it's contact list. I am preparing to severe all ties with AT&T and Yahoo because of this issue.

Yahoo won't help you it's an att account. SBCglobal won't help you because it doesn't exist (contrary to people posing on the internet as sbcglobal help for a charge). And Att suggests the first thing you try to do is change your password (not announcement near top right of this page). But I suggest you do it with Forgot ID/Password.
FWIW you could continue to use att as your ISP for internet access. No one says you have to use that access to att's email service. Just find an decent one (read reviews) that has more privacy than yahoo, aol, gmail, and hotmail/outlook (read terms of service), includes support you can contact, and who's only business is email.

This is not a ATT.COM EMAIL ISSUE. IT IS A SBCGLOBAL.NET ISSUE

There is no difference! Sbcglobal.net is an att (legacy) account. It's just that the legacy accounts a problematic these days due to the decision by att to unmerge them from yahoo.
