ATT now offers DSL without local phone for $24 for 1.5 Mbps or $29 for 3 Mbps. No Contract. But modem is not free with this deal.
ATT phone number 1-888-800-4095



anyone have this? how much with the taxes and what not


will any old dsl modem work? I'm guessing there's a page with all the compatible modems so we can snag a cheap one off e-Bay.


Anybody get this to work?

YMMV on region. I called before and they said it was not available for my region.

It would be helpful to know where people have had success (and failure) in getting naked DSL from AT&T.


No Phone DSL from AT&T for $24 or $29 works in Michigan


Any Floridians have this? I'll jump all over this if it's true.

This applies to the 9 state region that was Bellsouth, now AT&T Fast Access DSL.

I'm on the dry loop plan. I had to ask for it, though. I'm in Ohio.


any success in CT?


I tried to get this in the Chicagoland area six months ago and was told by ATT that although available, The price would jump to $40 or $50. They claim that the reason I get this service for $19.99 currently is because of the discounts that apply to subscribers with land lines.

How to Get $23.99 AT&T Dry Loop DSL
Customer retention offer only....

Though AT&T has been talking a good game when it comes to unbundling its DSL and landline services, most of their speed tiers still aren't available as standalone products. While the company is offering a 1.5Mbps DSL and wireless bundle in seven trial markets, a few weeks ago some users in our Connecticut AT&T forum noted that existing customers could get 1.5Mbps dry loop DSL for $23.99. An AT&T customer retention rep has since leaked precisely how to get the offer:

•Call the AT&T Dry Loop department directly at 888-800-4095
•Ask to switch to "DSL direct"
•If they give you a hassle, say it's a retention offer

You can also get 3Mbps AT&T Pro service for $28.99 this way as well, but the retention deal is apparently only available in the Midwest, Southwest California, Nevada and Connecticut. Note: this won't work in Bellsouth territories, as they offer an entirely different dry loop offer. We're still waiting on that territory-wide, 768kbps dry loop DSL AT&T promised as a BellSouth merger condition."


Available in Noblesville, IN. Just got switched from $65/mo (ph/dsl) to $29/mo (dsl).

Happy Jax here!

Edit:
Just to give some more useful info in case it's helpful for somebody...

The rep gave me no problems at all with switching over - I just asked for the "Dry Loop DSL Package" and she got me setup for it. She said it was a no-obligation/no-contract deal so I can keep it for as long as I want. She said that I could continue to use my current DSL modem. She also said that they'd have to disconnect my phone and DSL service 2 days before they install this service. I asked a bit more about that (because I don't like going without internet) and she said it's because they have to install new stuff at my house on the outside since there's no longer a dial tone for the internet signal to piggy-back on. Oh, and she said to continue using the filters on my phone lines as I had previously used. I asked if there were plans coming out anytime soon that would be faster and she said that while she didn't have any specific information about anything like that, she suspected within a year or so there would be up to 6.0mbps plans.

Just thought I'd share in case anybody has questions about any of this.


I do not know if this will help anyone else but this number is for the mid-west 1-888-800-4095 .I spent about 1 hour making calls. I live in Ga. 30663 zip code. I was told all that was available for me with dry loop was
[1.5 Mbps] for $37.95 and that the person I was talking to could not give me the price with taxes.


...


This works in Chicago too. Not sure how long it will last though. This is how my bill looks:

Current Charges
SERVICE DISCOUNT 10/19/07 11/18/07 $-26.0
ATT Yahoo! HSI PRO N 10/19/07 11/18/07 $54.99

TOTAL $28.99

So I wonder how long the $26 "discount" will last.


too bad it is not valid in TX


Has anyone tried this in the NC area?


I'm going to try this today. I'll post my results (I'm in FL).

Great info for ATL. Thanks!


Hey all, I just updated the Quick Summary. Please keep that updated with the results for your area!

Thanks!


Called the number in the OP...the CS said they only handle the midwest, and couldn't locate a number for the department that handles the southeast. Time to hit google!

Can you please post the number if you locate it, I did some searching and could not find one.

Thanks.

i guess once i get home tonite, ill be able to check for sure...


954-626-1263 is for level two retentions @ AT&T. Try that.


Works great in springfield, mo... got the 28.99 package no problem.

AT&T Chicago is formerly SBC, not formerly BellSouth.

Has anyone confirmed the actual area where this offer is valid?

But of course...

Florida (and I assume the rest of the former Bellsouth areas) can call 1-877-737-2478.

Navigate through the menus by selecting that you're calling to cancel your phone service with AT&T. When the customer service rep answers, tell them that you saw an article about the $24/$29 plan (whichever you're trying for). After a minute or two of searching, the CS rep I spoke to found it. As of tomorrow, I'm paying $24/month for DSL only. Thanks OP!


Are any of you planning to keep your phone number (assuming you currently have phone+DSL from AT&T)? I assume you have to port the number before you cancel, is that correct?


Did anyone try in CA. Please let me know


Mine ATT DSL (1.5Mb) is 14.95 but require a phone line. However, the unlimited phone line just for dsl is about $7(have to pay other than dsl) so total about 21.95 + tax. This is for Dallas Texas


freedonkey said: Did anyone try in CA. Please let me know


I tried to call in and see if it is available. Their service center is being impacted by the SoCal fires.... line goes striaght to a voicemail box.


GA...30152
Naked DSL prices:
47.95 6.0
42.95 3.0
37.95 1.5
Would love to get the better deals, but this $5 HIGHER than the normal rates...


In houston Tx even when there is a basic subcriber line for DSL which is only around 6 bucks, after taxs it went up to 16 dollar! So that plus 24.99 for the 3mb dsl will come to 40 dollars. I wish my area has cox cable internet.

I hope you aren't just asking them what the price is. They don't willingly offer up the lower rates. I had to insist that I'd seen it in an article about the Bellsouth-AT&T deal with the FCC. They put me on hold and suddenly the CS rep could find the deal...even though she'd quoted me different prices when I first mentioned dropping the phone line.

I live in East Lakeview (60657).

People should know, this is not available online. When I tried signing up online, naked DSL was available...for $55. You must call to get this offer. I found out about it because I got a postcard from AT&T about it.


AkronTim said: Appears to be a soft pull - took my credit app info again...

They didn't take my credit info or mention anything about running a credit check. They specifically told me that there was no contract, no obligation, etc.


1- they definitely did a credit check. even though i've been a customer with them for 2 years.
2- service and price was exactly as quoted on here. didnt have to fight for anything. lady was super friendly.
3- no contract, no additional fees. they verbally said i'll be paying 28.99 until i cancel or move.
4- i'm in chicago - west loop.
5- having it switched when i go on thanksgiving vacation for a week. the down time between switching from land line to naked line is 4 business days, but given the holidays, i'll be out from 19th-26th. no biggie.

Although our service (1.5) increased from $22 to $37 I called to cancel and was offered DSL Lite (256) for $15 and accepted (it's still offered just isnt listed on their page). Still good enough and downloads are ~500-700 serves my needs.
