You ask yourself why, why would AT&T impose a 100% increase on a fee so outlandish that the majority of carriers wave? I say it’s to make up for the 4 billion dollar loss they took on the failed T-Mobile merger.
They say it’s because:
“Wireless devices today are more sophisticated than ever before. And because of that, the costs associated with upgrading to a new device have increased and is reflected in our new upgrade fee,” “This fee isn’t unique to AT&T and this is the first time we’re changing it in nearly 10 years.”
The failed merger was because the FCC blocked it! Now it is costing everyone more!
