Formal Complaints to the FCC

Formal Complaints to the FCC

 

I wish to file a formal complaint against AT&T, for their billing practices, and lack of accountability.  Has anyone had success doing this, and if so, could you provide some insight into the best way to concisely file a complaint?  I honestly feel AT&T has gotten too big to address any issue.  It is really hit or miss when calling customer service, or billing, and hang-ups are routine. Has anyone else seen this or have done this previously?

I own a multi-location retail store chain.  We switched to Spectrum for our telecommunications of all our stores and have been going great on the Spectrum side for months. However, AT&T (the old provider) will not stop billing us. Calls into their support lines are not helpful. It's a bit frustrating honestly. Beyond the facts that somehow (even though we had signed-up at the same time nearly 10 years ago) that our local and long distance service runs somehow in different 'contract' cycle times (meaning if you cannot just leave AT&T without either still having local or long distance still on a term and pay a cancellation fee of one or the other) or how they just put you in a new year without any sort of confirmation (versus putting you in a month-to-month), I am at a loss of how to get this handled so AT&T stops trying to bill us for service they are NOT providing.   It's the most frustrating that they have no respect for my time in this issue.
 
I would much rather prefer to handle this quickly with ATT, but feel the only way that I can resolve this is by going this direction of FCC or complaining on social media outlets.  As a last ditch effort, I did email the CEO.    I would appreciate any help.

Was the switch over to Spectrum easy? I just spent 1 hour on the phone trying to reduce my rate close to what spectrum is offering and the only way they would reduce is if I added Directv. I explained I do not have TV's in my store.

What a waste of time trying to let them keep my business.

I had no issues with Spectrum. Was able to email with one main contact person and their webchat was really easy. I did call-in and didn't have to go through several departments. All-in-all I was pleased with the amount of service I had with me.

Not sure if you have resolved this, but we have had the worst time in getting the billing straight also.  I finally had to send a letter to AT&T in Atlanta to file a formal complaint to get action.  Although they are still working on this, the office of the President is overseeing all the issues we have had and are making an attempt to get things handled.  Hope this helps.
