Alltel ripped me off and tried to ruin my credit and 7 years of Alltel service is now over...


It all began after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. Alltel sent me a text message saying that our service was going to be free during these tough times.

That was nice, they gave me a free month and I switched to the $80 family plan and BAM! They hit me with a $1,200 bill.

That's more than my rent!

They said that I must pay the full bill or my service will be disconnected so I requested an itemized bill.

When I got the bill, it appears that they charged me for two individual plans and all the overtime for both plans, not to mention they charged me for the itemized bill.

After endless debates with Alltel supervisors, they admit they made a mistake in the bill. And offer to reduce the bill, but it was not enough. $500 is a far cry from $80 a month, so I threw in the towel.

Now Alltel is harassing me to pay the $500.00 PLUS a $200.00 disconetion fee.

I was supposed to switch to Cingular today, but Alltel's computer system is "down" and they can not switch the phone number over.

While I remained loyal to Alltel for 7 years, they met me with incompetence and dishonesty.

    Maybe they took their lead from the oil companies and the government after Hurricane Katrina hit. You know say “We will help” and then raise the price of gas and leave a bunch of trailers in the mud. All this after the people gave money to help, what really happens to that? Why would you be loyal to any big company? They don’t care if you live in a cardboard shack and have nothing to eat forever as long as you pay them.
