I've learned that installing U-verse does not change our land line service for our telephone. I've confirmed that with several sources. But I have cancelled our Jan. 14th installation. The main reason for this is that after asking around on a few new forums that I've joined I learned that, contrary to what AT&T told me over the phone, I can go into local AT&T store and speak directly with a U-verse specialist and see a demo. I cancelled the order I had placed with the phone service rep because I did not like being lied to. Next step is to go back to the store with my husband. I'd rather give the commission to local gal working her way through college.
