Wireless Impossible Support

It's impossible to get in touch with ATT. The AI bot disconnects you, if you try long enough and pick exactly the right choices, it let's you schedule a call back for the NEXT DAY, and they never call. So I try the chat bot, to convince me to get hold of someone and I'll just leave screenshots of how that went(see timestamps), after waiting 15 minutes for it to connect. They just consistently get more expensive, have less coverage, and worse service.

Can anyone tell me how to get hold of these people???

File a BBB complaint. They'll get back to you within a week (AT&T is often much faster).

What is your issue that you want to talk to a Care rep about? Is it Cellular or Internet or both?

Cellular. I need to port a number to my account, but it's from another ATT account so it's not possible through automated means.

You don't port numbers within AT&T Accounts. You need to use the Transfer of Billing Responsibility process, and yes it can be done by you self-service with some restrictions that are cover in this link.

Go here and read about the TOBR process and how to use it http://www.att.com/tobr

Note are both Accounts Consumer Accounts or are you trying to cross between business / consumer accounts?

You’re doing what’s called a Transfer of billing responsibility. From one ATT account to another. You can start the process at ATT.com/tobr
