The 300-Page iPhone Bill to Disappear

Following the "popularity" of 300 page iPhone Bill, AT&T making changes...


AT&T notified users yesterday via text message of the change. IPhone users received the following text: "We are simplying your paper bill, removing itemized detail. To view all detail, go to att.com/mywireless. Still need full paper bill? Call 611."


This change is actually not as dramatic as it might first appear. "What we've had until yesterday was the detailed bill as the default option," explains AT&T Wireless spokesman Mark Siegel. The detailed bill was the one made infamous for its heft in a YouTube video.


"If you said nothing, you get a detailed bill--with every phone call you've made, and all of your data activity," he said. " We've always also had a summary bill as an option; this tells you what you owe this month, and very little else. It has none of the detail about your calling or your data activity. The third alternative we've always offered is a pure online bill." With any of those options, you could go online to view your usage details as well.
