First iPhone AT&T Bill

Posted on by

I signd up for a $85 service plan (basic plan + $10 upgraded text plan), and my first bill totalled $156.  The extra costs are for prorated minutes and texts, a $30 activation fee, and tax.

New iPhone customers, watch out.  Your first bill is gonna be a doozy.

    Yeah, my iPhone bill is like 96 bucks and I have the minimum plan. I have about 25 bucks in odd ATT fees that I’m going to call them about.

    It seemed like I couldn’t do anything about these charges, but then again I’m generally a pushover. I wonder if I can complain a lot and get them waived? It’s pretty ridiculous how they say $85 / month, when my first bill was over $150.

    geez! I keep hearing how much the bills are per month and it makes me shudder.

    My second bill was $96. The advertised $85 doesn’t include “government fees and taxes.” Pretty ridiculous.
