We had an AT&T rep knock on our door this week offering U-verse.
We're in North Raleigh, south of 540.
When we moved to our new home 6 months ago, the U-verse website said they couldn't provide that service to our home.
I couldn't even get regular AT&T high speed internet so we had to opt for Clear, which is pretty lousy and unreliable, but not as irritating a company as TWC.
With Clear, we get 3 bars 99% of the time but any rain/cloudy weather screws it right up to 1 bar or less for many hours or the whole day.
We signed up for U-verse there and then, with a great no contract deal at similar money to Clear.
Rep said AT&T products are great but operations end of AT&T is terrible.
