Lemme just start with this: They've saved my butt a couple times, and always with a smile and…read morestrategy.
When I upgrade I go there. When my iPhone got damaged I went there. When I have any Qs that going on the AT&T website for info or checking my bill doesn't seem clear, I go there. The staff are all great, even the ones in training. It feels like a mobile phone boutique, and they don't don't side with anyone who has a better phone (iPhone. lol)
They know all the details and if they can't answer, they use their contacts to get that info. They even know how you can save some money on your plan, and that's something other locations I've been to won't put out there. I've never felt like I need to say noNoNO to any add-ons, they don't persist. I never feel like a dummy when I upgrade, they give me all the info and let me stay to transfer all my data, plus check to see if I did it right. One guy is always friendly, multi-tasking but on point, Nilay. If ever you get stuck, he's the guy who gives you all the details.
Now, the older manager lady (I'm assuming she is the manager) is a lil tough and shall I say, 'less-wordy' when it comes to greeting you and helping you, (I envision her having just left the military, lol) but I assume she deals with a lot of daily crap and has hardened to the mobile carrying masses. Whatevs, she's got a top-notch staff, so I'm cool with it. But even when I approach her for something, she will answer me, just in a 'shouldn't-you-already-know-this' attitude.
Lately when my phone screen got smashed beyond control, she lead me in the right direction, plain and simple, and I left her with a Thank You and an upward bruh-man nod, even though I really thought I should hug her. lol
And yeeeeah I dunno why folks leave bad reviews for them, I've been going since iPhone 12, and I never had a problem. go!
