I don't normally condone hacking out of a contract like this, but AT&T is probably my least favorite big company on the planet. When we moved our company to Oregon, I actually had my account suspended because of "excessive use of partner coverage" ... despite the fact my wife and our staff all had iPhones but were never suspended.
AT&T offered to let me out of my contract (despite me pleading). So, I unlocked my iPhone and put it on T-Mobile.
I'll never give them another dime.
- 100k 16y agoWhat kind of proof do they need that you moved?
- callmeed 16y agoI believe you fax them a lease/rental agreement or a utility bill that shows an out-of-coverage address. I think I'll make a web app that generates a fake one for people that want to get out of their AT&T contract.
- smokey_the_bear 16y agoI moved somewhere where I get 0 bars on either of my AT&T phones anywhere within a half mile of my house. I called them, but they claimed that their map showed that I had coverage, so I couldn't get out of the contract. They also said they would be adding another tower soon. A year later I got an email that they'd added a tower, but the service quality did not improve.
- davidmurphy 16y agoPlease don't. Lying is wrong. AT&T's charges may be a lot, but two wrongs don't make a write. The ends don't justify the means. I'd say this is "cracking" out of a contract, not "hacking."
