- Combining your bill provides you with one bill from AT&T, which can include U-verse, Wireless, and DIRECTV
- Manage all your service in one account.
- All your services are on one bill.
- One overall easy payment to make when your bills are combined. Only one due date to remember.
- No added costs.
- You may qualify for combined bill discounts.
-
All accounts must be in the same name to combine the accounts.
- We recommend paying off your existing Wireless and DIRECTV balance prior to combining your bills.

I was assured when I signed up that I would receive one bill for both services. It has been 4 months and hours with customer service and it still hasn't happened. They keep telling me it's been done but it's all lies. Customer service is slow and waiting times are long. I was waiting for a supervisor on hold for 30 minutes and I finally hung up. They took down all my information and never called back. How difficult can it be to combine a bill? I am at the point of cancelling my services and I would not recommend signing up with them.

Hi @ksmiley,
We can look into this. What other ATT service do you have besides DIRECTV.

We initially signed up for a bundle of U-verse TV, digital phone, and gigabyte internet. However, when the installer came to the house, we told him that we changed our minds and wanted to keep DirecTV instead of getting U-verse TV. He went ahead with the digital phone and internet. Yes, our mistake was changing our minds and not just cancelling the order and putting in a new one, but when you've had satellite internet, you're ready to move into the 21st century again. That was in the beginning of November and we have had to call every single month because we are getting charged for U-Verse TV every month.
When we call, we are told it will be fixed. The charges are usually corrected and we then pay the ammended amount. However, this month still has not been corrected, even though we called last week, so we'll have to call again. We've asked to have our phone and internet bill combined with Directv, but that has never happened either.
I would just like to know if there is a special department I should ask for other than billing to get this corrected once and for all.

Another bill and no correction.
Four months, many phone calls, and no resolution. How hard is it to correct biling errors?
