Is it against AT&T policy to have people on a "family" account if they're not family, Paki? Yes, or no? Do they say who you can put on a family account? Yes or no?

Oh, and FWIW, I'm not on a plan with distant relatives or cousins. I was on a plan with my parents, who are direct relatives, and am jumping to a plan with my wife, who is also a direct relative. The issue is that she STARTED her plan in Oklahoma, so they wont allow her to change her number now that she lives here, nor will they allow me to change my number after getting onto her plan. It's pretty ing re ed to be so stubborn over something as small as a ing PHONE NUMBER.
Take the towel off your head, maybe you will actually be able to absorb some nuggets of simple logic, instead of being a dumbass all the time.
I don't know the answer to that. My root argument is that Stretch EXPECTS the same type of priviledges of those who pay more for well... trying to exploit the system. It may not be against AT&T policy, but AT&T clearly doesn't reward this behavior, otherwise, they would have given him everything he asked for.
Manny, I could drop my AT&T plan too and pay half of what I pay if I wanted to by getting on my mommy and daddy's account... but at some point I decided to grow up and be responsible for me and my footprint. Just because you can, doesn't make it the right thing to do.
Well... that's a COMPLETELY different story... but I call BS on AT&T refusing to transfer her number to an SA one if she now lives here and she is the account holder. I've moved before with AT&T before and had my number changed.
Oh... and for all you newbies in this forum... I'M NOT ING MIDDLE EASTERN YOU RACIST . I'm 3/4 MEXICAN 1/4 ITALIAN 100% YOUR DADDY.
Understandable to an extent, but wait... lets see... I've been a customer for 10 years now, my contract is up, and if I really wanted to I could leave them for another carrier, but instead if choose to remain with them by just moving my line onto my wifes plan, and they cant even do me the goddamn courtesy of even keeping the same telephone number?
Sounds pretty re ed, especially when other carriers do that and have had no issue with it.
The moral of this thread: If you aren't a corporate shill then you must be a commie.
Dallas actually.
And what good would it do for me to BS around? Really?
So being on a family plan, which is designed to simultaneously get AT&T more customers, and help their customers save money, is irresponsible, and the wrong thing to do?
If they felt that strongly against it, as you claim they do, they would not have a family plan first off. Secondly, if they did, they would be infinitely more invasive when it comes to finding out who is and isnt on the plan. But they dont, obviously because they dont give 2 s. They are just doing what they feel nets them the most possible business.
My apologies, then you should consider using that towel to dry your back off.
So like I said earlier you want to pay more because it gives you some sense of pride. Well whoopty ing doo for you, but the mark of an adult or what makes a man is a lot more than whether or not they are smartly saving money on a cell phone plan.
There is no right and wrong. Its a ing business transaction. I think its funny as that you came in today painting me as some crazy liberal and you're the one thats trying to attach morality to a business transaction that doesn't even violate AT&T Terms of Service.
So once again you are an arbitrage opportunity. Added profit for no additional risk.
Actually you can. You only get what you ask for. You can and should expect as much as you want from a company you do business with. Now, they may or may not give it to him but there are options out there who WILL give him those things so AT&T will likely take all of that into consideration when making the business decision and eventually give him exactly what you want.
You can usually get a lot out of cell phone companies provided that you ask for it.
Seriously, Paki. For all the Capitalist pride you have - you have a piss poor understanding of how capitalism works. LOL @ trying to get the best deal possible as being wrong. "Milking the system".
No doubt you can try. I'd guess the problem he's mainly running into is the unlimited being grandfathered on his folks' account.
Keep playing CSR roulette. You might get lucky or it can be a monstrous waste of time and extremely frustrating.
Yeah - there definitely is a frustration factor when dealing with cell phone CS reps. Ironically, its like talking with PakiDan.![]()
I never said crazy.... you are an intelligent guy, but there is no DOUBT that you are a raging liberal.
For one phone and not being an account holder, I'd guess it's going to take some serious work to get what he wants.
it sucks to lose the unlimited, but that is understandable.
but my phone number? really?? i just have a hard time believing they cannot do something that minor.
Manny, please don't pretend that this one argument gives you a complete insight into my level of understanding of capitalism. I can belittle you too till my face is blue my friend.
Do it, IMO.

How dare anyone try to milk AT&T or any other cell company. It's a privilege to pay $15 a month for 200 texts that cost little or nothing for AT&T to send.
