What happens to my bill if I file for bankruptcy?

I do plan on paying the balance. I've been making payments since my original call. My wireless and sattlite is bundled , i have requested them to be separated so paying seperate I could manage easy.

     Evidently that process can take several months

I'm not sure if you can separate them if they are past due. (Pretty sure you can't)

What do I do if my bill shots up to 550.50 for no reason

It depends, was it $449 previously or $100?

Actually, it does NOT depend on that (but you've obviously left out significant info here). There IS a reason, download the PDF of the last few months and see where the increase is. There isn't a line item for "No Reason ..... $398.95" there will be details as to what the charge is.

Realistically, if it shot up hundreds of dollars, it's likely the cost of a device (you upgraded and didn't return or you canceled a line that have a phone/tablet/hotspot/laptop on it and it's billing you what is owed).

I have a friend who has the same question as here, because every time you open a new line or buy new device they check your credit score....

I'm not sure how that follows? 

(P.S. I run my credit report ALL the time and I've never seen AT&T run a credit check when I've added a line or purchased a device, I've looked specifically for it on my old credit reports).
