Trade-in Program - Sent phone to incorrect address
AT&T,
I ordered a new phone under the trade-in program. I received my new phone on 29 Sept 2020. I activated my new phone and set everything up. A week later I sent my old phone to att in the same box I received my new phone. On 12 Nov 2020, I received mail labeled "ATT Trade-in Program" with a padded envelope. At this point I realized I mistakenly sent my old phone using the return label from the new phone.
What do I need to doin order to get a hold of my old phone and have it sent to the correct location? Please help.
thank you.

The number you have provided does not work. They pick up , I answer the automated questions, it states i will be transfered to a rep, then after 5 minutes, it says everyone is busy and to call back later. It then hangs up!
Please help!

Any update on this yet? I did the same thing. The lack of instructions with the label in the box was weird but I sent my old phone and then a week later received the same padded envelope to return my old phone. Even a simple instruction card or email with the next step like, “We will mail you a return envelope to send your trade-in phone” ... Great service. And clearly I wasn’t the only one confused and baited by the return label in the box with the new phone.

Any update here on this? I have the exact same problem and AT&T seems to be borderline criminal in how they have handled it.

I’ve started the process of contacting through Twitter... they gave me a number to call and it went to VM. I left a VM and still have yet to hear back. It’s been 5 months since I mailed in my old phone. I spoke to someone in December who just said “wait a couple more months for the trade ins to be sorted” yet here we are another 3 months later and I’m still paying the full installment on my new phone. I’m livid.
@tonyre83 Who else on Twitter did you reach out to?
