GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's AT&T customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Anonymous: Very rude customer service. Placed an online order requesting for * new lines, order number XXXXXXXXX. Called up customer service on *-***-***-**** to check the order status, at least ** times since I placed my order, my order was on hold for no reason for *-* days, every time the customer reps gave different reasons for the delay and not able to confirm the shipment date. Finally today (*****) morning, and the sales rep confirmed that it has been released to shipment department and ready to ship with delivery on next day before noon, and confirmed that I can expect to receive the ship confirmation in next ** mins after I disconnect the call, waited for * hours and then again called up the customer service to check the status again, this time the rep gave me a different delivery dates (*-* business days) which does not match with what I have on the order confirmation (Express Next business day), after hearing so many different versions of the response did not wanted to continue with
