When the AT&T long distance and cellphone parts split, they decided they could rip people off by denying them the "free" long distance minutes per the cellphone contracts.

Then, when the cell company didn't pay the long distance company for the supposed "free" minutes, the long distance company just tried to charge users directly. The payments made to the cell company didn't go to the long distance company - they just kept them, so the long distance company ran up huge bogus charges because they supposedly weren't getting paid by the cell company.

So then, when they wouldn't talk to each other, the long distance company decided to send people to collection, even though the cell company HAD THE MONEY already and wouldn't pay it.

Consumers beware - the AT&T "split" was a consumer scam designed to break wireless "free" long distance minutes and set you up to be sent to collection for money the cellphone company has, but won't pay to the long distance company.

DONT pay these people - they are corrupt and will not fix their own accounting problems because they know they can threaten people with credit damage and make money while they do it.
