AT&T changes default Apple iPhone bill to waste less paper
Thursday, August 23, 2007 - 05:10 PM EST"A week after the brouhaha of the 300-page iPhone bill and other customer complaints, AT&T Wireless has announced its new plan for handling iPhone billing," Melissa J. Perenson reports for PC World.
"AT&T notified users yesterday via text message of the change. IPhone users received the following text: 'We are simplying your paper bill, removing itemized detail. To view all detail, go to att.com/mywireless. Still need full paper bill? Call 611," Perenson reports.
"'What we've had until yesterday was the detailed bill as the default option,' explains AT&T Wireless spokesman Mark Siegel... We've always also had a summary bill as an option; this tells you what you owe this month, and very little else. It has none of the detail about your calling or your data activity. The third alternative we've always offered is a pure online bill,'" Perenson reports. "'We are now offering the summary bill as the default option,' Siegel says."

MacDailyNews Take: Obviously, the summary bill should have been the default from the get go.
