AT&T’s stock price hit a 29-year low on Friday and continued to sink today as investors fled telecom stocks on reports that cleanups of lead-covered telephone cables could cost the industry tens of billions of dollars.
Driving by one of their stores the other day and thought to myself, “Who the hell uses AT&T anymore?!”
They’ve had shit service since before T-Mobile existed. Literally let a noone come from nowhere just gobble up their market share.
It’s super location specific. I’ve been lots of places where no one except AT&T subscribers had coverage.
I’m so glad I live in a city that forces competition.
Same here. I was paying $130/month to Comcast for 1000/35 and no data cap ($30 bump from the normal $100/month) and AT&T finally rolled fiber out to our street. While I don’t like them as a company it’s not like Comcast is better and now I get synchronous gig with no data caps for $80/month.
I’ve been an AT&T customer for years, mostly out of necessity. They just offer the best all around service for my needs.I tried switching to T-Mo, but they have a lot of dead spots (especially along interstates) and has weaker signal strength in most buildings than AT&T. And I just refuse to use Verizon, but they’re in a similar situation.
That hasn’t been true for about 5 years. TMo bought and utilized a wide spectrum of wavelengths previously held for over the air television. If you haven’t tried them in the past few years, I’d give them another try. I went from AT&T to T-Mobile. I’m in the same never Verizon boat.
Believe it or not, wireless coverage isn’t the same everywhere.
Hardly a no one from nowhere
