New Life for Story on AT&T Overcharging in Iraq

If you have been reading The Prepaid Press, you realize that we broke a story in January, 2005, detailing how AT&T is overcharging GIs for calls back from Iraq and Afghanistan. If you haven't seen this story, go read it now. The story received a lot of attention, including the New Jersey Star Ledger, who used it in an article in May, 2005.

As soldiers started to come back from Iraq, they began telling horror stories of AT&T overcharging. Cards with 200 minutes only getting 30 minutes, or less. This unconscionable situation has finally caught the eye of an organization big and politically powerful enough to do do something about it, the American Legion.

A resolution is headed for the National Convention in June, and you can read the exclusive story here .
