Tell me about AT&T Uverse

[brandon01rt]

I am currently waiting on ATT to fix their shit on my street, so they can setup uverse. I ordered two weeks.ago, and noticed some digging was being done around their boxes near the street. It turns out, it is some equipment Issue that they can't fix till the 27th and my appointment was pushed back till then. I am working from home now and need their fastest dsl. This is going to make me have to keep driving downtown until they get it fixed.

Doesn 't lasen or someone else work with ATT?

I have Uverse and love it. Ive had it for about 4 years now. Only problem ive had is having two boxes replaced because the wifi quit working. They came right out and switched them out though

I don't really want to admit it but I work on the Uverse repair side, I can't comment on anything though due they threaten to fire people for talking badly.
But I can say I do not have any services with ATT up to and including Uverse,Phones and Cell service. I am now with T-mobile charter for internet and Directv. And even with employee discounts I am saving close to 130.00 a month.

Great replies, fellas. Thanks for that.



Of all the setups I've had, I like DirecTV the most. That said, Uverse is offering an additional receiver (only have 1 now), supposedly faster internet than the Charter cable I've got, and getting phones/internet/TV on one bill instead of 3 would be handy. All of that for cheaper than what we're paying now, with the additional hassle of the rate hike every 6 months, apparently.

While it won't get you the bundle, I think non-Dish customer's can get the Hopper system for free right now by purchasing a qualifying package and signing a two year contract. You might look in to it that if more receivers is higher on your list than a bundle. I love it and Dish has always been very consistent their pricing the 11 years we've been with them.

I've only had mine for about a month, but so far very satisfied.

Homey, if you're happy, why mess that up?

the main thing i liked more about directv than my uverse was the ability to "play all" on recorded tv episodes. Then again, i don't really get around to watching what recorded until sundays... Like someone else said also, the hardware is garbage! Remotes and boxes.

The "Hopper" system that Dish now has, is nice. HD and DVR throughout the house to all four of my flatscreens. Came out the same money to change it all out, too.

There's a pretty good thread on this in the "Media Room" forum.

Yep. I'm very satisfied. My weight room and elliptical actually get used now!

I had uverse in my apartment and loved it. Picture was great and the lineup was much better (compared to Charter). Unfortunately when at the house all they offer is Charter or dish/directv. Went with Charter, but will be switching to directv soon. Uverse was better, and cheaper.

Fired Uverse and went to Direct and they gave me 4 HD tuners and I got the Media center which allows you to record 5 HD channels and watch diferent channels on the other rooms.
The only thing I miss about uverse is Not A Damn thing...

I have been tempted to do this about 8 or 9 times...
