And yet just today (actually a few minutes ago) I received a letter from AT&T notifying me of their settlement of a class action lawsuit regarding early termination fees. Given that this settlement covers "January 1, 1998 through November 4, 2009" you would think they had learned their lesson. But this FCC action implies they haven't...
Could you provide more info? I fall into that range and currently letting my contract expire its last couple months because ATT won't prorate my ETF because the associated contract started like 2 months before the agreed to start pro rating. What's worse is I didn't even receive any subsidized phone when they imposed a new 2 year contract. This was when the edge iPhone was full price.

I don't live in New Jersey and never have, so presumably this applies to all of their customers. The "click here" link is to a PDF that outlines the settlement terms and deadlines for opting out of the class action. My personal opinion is that I'll be getting some sort of small billing credit sometime this summer.
Thank you, I just filed a claim at http://attmetfsettlement.com. Looks like a 200minute calling card for me, but better than nothing. Those that have paid a flat ETF really should get on over there.
