IPhone 3g and USBConnect 881... Is this billing correct? Please help.

Hey guys,
So I am a long time iPhone user and I just recently acquired a new job and a couple things had to change. First was the fact that I had to upgrade my minute plan from 450/mo. to 3000/mo. That's all well and good, but the real trick came when I had to add a USB Connect 881 so I could travel wirelessly with my laptop...
I was told by a representative at my local AT&T Store that in order to add the USBConnect 881 device to my plan that I had to switch to a family plan with two lines (One for the iPhone and one for the USBConnect 881). On top of the $60/mo. data fee. So that's just it. I thought for sure that whenever I wanted to add a device like this to my plan that it would be a simple $60 more dollars to my plan. Why on earth do I need to upgrade my minute plan in order to use a data only device...
Being that my company supports Verizon for their carrier, I walked over to my Verizon store and asked them how much it would be per month to use their USB wireless card and per month it would be $60 no minute plan deal. So ya, why the **** am I paying more through my own carrier which I've had for 4 years for the exact same 5Gb/mo. service...
So any advice and comments would be very much appreciated. I'm not getting straight answers with AT&T. Thanks for your time and help.

I don't think you will get any answers here. You need to call and speak to a manager at AT&T or go back to the store and speak to a manager.
Your post is a little confusing, you say you had to upgrade to a 3000/mo. plan for your work and to add the $60 per month broadband plan. So what is the problem?

  • MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH IPHONE 3G AND MICROSOFT EXCHANGE!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Ok,
    My exchange server at work was synced to my iphone and has worked with no issues. I then exchanged my phone because there were issues with my bluetooth not syncing properly. So with this new phone, it prompts me to enter in my exchange server password every few days. I contacted my IT department as well and microsoft to get this issue resolved because I assume that there were issues with the exchange server. They were both able to see an event viewer and it showed that my iphone was attempting to log in numerous amounts of times, which locks out my account after 3 incorrect log ins. Even when I erased the exchange account from my phone, it still showed that the phone in the event viewer was trying to log in over and over again. I then did a master clear and restore and the process was removed in the event viewer. So then I called my IT department to unlock my account after I cleared everything. I was able to sync everything again with it working properly. Now its a day later and the my exchanger server prompts me to enter in the password AGAIN and my exchange account is locked AGAIN because the event viewer at work is showing the same issues. Is my Iphone not saving the password correctly? What do I do? My IT department even created a dummy account to see if a new account would fix the issues but yet no cigar! HELP!!

    The iPhone you returned is still syncing against your server and locking out your account. Someone possibly has access to your mail data. I'd recommend having your Exchange Administrator install the Microsoft Exchange Server ActiveSync Web Administration Tool (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E6851D23-D145-4DBF-A2CC -E0B4C6301453&displaylang=en) and attempt to wipe/delete/block that other iPhone.

  • I forgot my passcode on my new Iphone 6 and haven't backup it yet. Please help.

    I got my Iphone 6 last week and went on vacation to take some pictures. However, in the middle of my vacation the IPhone restarted by itself and asking for a passcode. My passcode is not working anymore and pushing my Iphone to be disabled by trying to guess what it is. I tried to restore the Iphone by using my computer but I was not able to back it up because it's asking for a passcode also I tried to sync it and its does the same thing and asking for a passcode. I don't want to completely restore it without saving my pictures. Is it possible to reset my passcode by going to any apple service center? We do have all the necessary documents to prove the I am the owner of it. I just don't want to take the risk to restore it without backing it up. Please help.

    The purpose of the passcode is to protect the data in the iPhone (including photos) from people who do not know the passcode.  The only way to eliminate the passcode is to restore the phone as new which eliminates the data from the iPhone.  You can do that yourself or take it to an Apple Store and they will restore it for you.  If you had made a backup you could then restore the data back to the iPhone (including the photos) but if you did not make a backup, then you will be unable to access the data.
    You have not said whether or not you had the Photo stream feature enabled in your iCloud settings.  If you did, your photos will be streamed back to your iPhone when you enable the feature after restoring the iPhone.   Or perhaps you had enabled iCloud backups to made automatically every time you are on Wifi and plugged in.   If yes, you can restore from the latest iCloud backup.   If not, you are out of luck.
    For the future, it is a good idea to enable iCloud automatic backups.  You don't have to remember to make them and they will be there for you should you forget your passcode again.

  • When i try to go out of a text conversation and go to all of my texts it glitches and goes to the home screen. I've tried everything, and I just got this phone yesterday please help.

    I was thinking maybe iOS 7 on wednesday would fix it but I'm not sure?

    Have you restarted your device?
    Have you reset your device?
    Have you done ANY troubleshooting on your own yet?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails (or you haven't tried a dang thing yet)
    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

    Are you updating through the phone or through iTunes on a pc/mac?

    Apparently, no one pays it... That's why they shut off your service.

    It sounds like it still has her information on it, so it might be efficient to navigate to Settings, then General, then Reset, then Erase All Content and Settings. You can then set up the phone again, using your information. This way the phone will be yours, officially, and her data and information will be removed.

    Well, it could be that your carrier doesn't have a signal when it looses its signal.  You could try resetting network settings which might help - Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings.  You'll need to set up any wi-fi networks you connect too again. If you're still having issues, contact your carrier.
    Good luck!

    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
    If you cannot get this information from the seller
    Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • Hello, I have been unable to activate my new iphone 6. When I call the activation phone number it just says terms and conditions have been accepted on this account. Please help.

    Same thing here. I love how they include this nice and easy to follow guide in the box and the KEY step for activation (the phone call) is a total fail. To verizon: the automated just says Terms and Conditions have been accepted for this number. Press 1 to enter another phone number in the order. Well, I HAD NO other phone number in my order. The message gives no other options. She repeats the same line 3 more times and after the 3rd time, it says please hold while we transfer you, call may be monitored etc. Guess what, its 2 am ET and customer service is closed?
    Do you guys expect thousands of iphone customers to speak to a CSR just to activate? Why not just let us do it online? I have activated plenty of phones even LTE phones, online. Now I'm going to have to compete with the other 30,000 people who ran into this same problem overnight tomorrow on the phone....
