Petition against AT&T/Motorola anyone? Good or bad idea?

**zizo79** · 02-26-2011, 08:58 PM

I started the same thread in 2 other forums:

I was thinking about starting a Groubal petition about AT&T and how they are capping the HUSPA speeds on the Atrix 4g and maybe the Inspire?
Maybe they will pay some kind of attention to the issue ..anyone?

The main thing they will notice is customers leaving. I am returning my Atrix, staying with Sprint for now and waiting on a good LTE phone from Verizon.

I just want AT&T to release some kind of statement about this issue because they say that all is good...

I'm #387. Tick-tock, tick-tock AT&T!!!

**mfriedman79** · 03-03-2011, 03:33 PM

Petition signed. I also filed a complaint with the FTC over false advertising and general deceptive marketing by AT&T in regards to their 4g phones. Probably won't do much, but can't hurt either.

I've posted twice now on the AT&T facebook wall. No feedback by AT&T, but both times I got "likes" from people on FB. I'm going to file a complaint with the BBB and possible the FTC.

Good article

**ka3yan** · 03-07-2011, 01:23 PM

Ok, so I've not filed with the FTC, BBB and FCC. Anyone wishing to file their complaint with the FCC can do so here:

There is also the Federal Consumer Action Website:

Yeah I tipped earlier today but was told by their editor that they wont talk about the petition. I told them that it wouldn't matter as long as they talk about the issue. Thanks for posting this, I also added a nice video to the petition !

Okay so I just got off the phone with AT&T's president office and I gave my info as well as the address of the petition. I was told it will be escalated to their managers and that they weren't aware of the issue. If you guys want to call, here is the number (no waiting): 1-866-220-8446 . The more calls they get, the faster they will respond !!
