Since AT&T sounds like “eighteenth tee” here’s a marketing idea: Sponsor as many 18th tee boxes as humanly possible. Whether at professional events or possibly local courses if you wanted to go that route. This could be one of those campaigns you do for a couple years and then after it ends any golf event that says “now to the eighteenth tee” will essentially be free marketing and brand awareness. You’re welcome. 😇 happy to collab on it if you need a golfer/designer ;)

2moSpeaking of expanding fiber optic - I was told back in January that Fiber optic was available in my neighborhood/at my address, so I called, had a tech come out to install it only to find out that there is no signal from the box to my house for some unknown reason. Then I had multiple other people come out to try to solve the issue. Then had customer service tell me it could be a few weeks. Then I was told it might be resolved in March but no one could give me a clear deadline for when to expect everything to be resolved. It is now July and AT&T no longer shows that fiber optic is available at my address (despite receiving a notification in the AT&T app along with a couple emails stating it was available in January - when I first tried to switch my service). No one has contacted me since I was told it may be resolved in March. I have been forgotten and I’m pretty over it at this point tbh. It shouldn’t be my job to chase your company to fix this issue. You all dug up my yard over a year ago to install lines in my neighborhood but you still can’t figure out how to get service to my house? I’m extremely displeased with the way AT&T has handled this situation.
