Last month I moved my home phone service from AT&T to Comcast (went smoother than expected). But Comcast thought it would be funny to sell my information to anyone willing to pay a few bucks, which has resulted in tons of mail "welcoming me to the neighborhood".

One of those pieces of mail came from none other than AT&T themselves. They are so concerned with me that they are offering a super-special wireless phone deal. If I call now and mention a secret priority code, they’ll sell me a Nokia 6085 phone for FREE (after a $30 mail in rebate).

Of course, they forgot that most people already know that AT&T stinks, and that any offer they make will result in some extra scrutiny. Which is just as well, as their own damn website sells the same phone for free without a rebate. But an even better deal gets you the same phone for minus $50 through Letstalk.com.

Thanks for nothing AT&T, now I know why I dumped you!
