SUBMITTING THIS ON ALL SOCIAL PLATFORMS AND TO BBB. Went to Audubon, NJ location to get a new iPhone, I was coincidentally due for an upgrade. I figured why not utilize my upgrade and purchase the iWatch. From the beginning of the process, I felt as if the products being pushed on me were because the salesman is incentivized to push certain promotions (I have been in sales for 15 years) I know it when I see it. However I am not a cell phone or cellular carrier expert and the guy was nice enough and built enough of a rapport with me that I began to trust him. My mistake. What was said to me: 1.) I could upgrade from the iPhone 7 to iPhone X for only $5 additional dollars p/month, as long as I got the 64G phone. What was NOT said to me: In order to do this I had to add a third cell line, Which he went ahead and did without disclosing it to me.Told me a "phantom line" will be on there because of the iWatch .2.) I was prepared to purchase the iWatch outright that day. Salesmen told me that I couldn't do that because I would lose discounts, but reassured me that I can pay for it after "1-2 billing cycles to ensure I got the promotional discounts". What was NOT said to me: He signed me up for a 30 month finance plan on the iWatch ... which after speaking with AT&T customer service can NOT be reversed or paid off early... 3.) Salesman told me that I could not purchase the iWatch (which I believed was used as an extension to my iPhone) unless I had a data plan (additional $10 p/ month) - I asked him if that was just because It was the iWatch Gen 5, he said No ALL iWatches. I asked Him if that was because I am at an AT&T retailer and not an Apple store, he said No, regardless where it is purchased, I would HAVE to have a data plan with it. (Again, didn't make sense, but I am not a cell phone expert nor a cellular provider expert) After speaking with AT&T customer service as well as many friends - that Was yet ANOTHER lie. I could have gone right to the Apple store and purchased the watch outright and with NO data plan... I was in the AT&T Audubon location for 2 + hours... I asked the salesman on many many occasions what my bill will look like after the transactions... he reassured me and I asked him to write down, pen to paper itemized additions what I would be looking at. My bill was at $173 going in to The store. he said it would be an additional $15-$20 at the MOST. $5 for the iPhone X (w/ upgrade) and $10-$15.00 for the data plan on the iWatch with taxes. bringing my new bill to $193.00 TOTAL... Great - signed the paper and I was on my way. I could not wait any longer, the process was taking forever. After getting home - I had my wife call my phone and I noticed my phone number was different (I have had the same # for close to 15 years, so this was a big deal to me) We went back the next day and the salesman reassured me that we just had to switch over the sim cards - so he did it and it worked. 4.) He also asked me to trade in my old iPhone and he could "get me some money back" - So we traded it in and we received a $50 credit. he told us We could NOT put it towards our monthly bill as a credit, nor could we take cash from them??? so We asked what could we do to utilize the credit - he brought us to the cases and chargers and said you could use it on these. .. again trusting his word, we purchased a case for my new iPhone and as well as a fast wireless charger (this is what we used the credit for) for my wife's phone... after this whole ordeal I was having serious buyers remorse because I simply didn't trust the process or the salesman. So I returned the iWatch on day 14. was reassured it would be removed from my bill. A WEEK LATER I CHECKED MY BILL AND IT WAS AT $363.00 !!!!!! I don't know if this was the salesman doing or not, as he did provide me with a receipt when I returned the watch, but It never came off my bill... I decided to call AT&T CUST SERV and review everything that was said to me step by step and then to review my current bill. I was apologized to time and time again for being deceived and because so much false information was given to me (STRAIGHT FROM AT&T CORPORATE EMPLOYEES MOUTH) ... turns out the closest she could get me back to my original bill was to be at $198.00, after removing the 30 month finance charge for the iWatch and the additional data plan, but she could not do anything with the third additional line that was added to my account without my consent or knowledge. I was forced to change my grandfathered unlimited plan to a 3 line family "starter plan" in order to get my bill close to what it was. Also, for what it is worth, I did some digging and it seems that this location has been called out for writing fake online reviews for themselves, by themselves. I WOULD WARN EVERYONE ABOUT THE EVERTON DRAKE (MY SALESMAN) AND THE DECEPTIVE AND MANIPULATIVE SALES TACTICS THAT ARE CARRIED OUT AT THE AUDOBON LOCATION. read more
