AT&T Reduced Rate Suspend (RRS) plan – the hidden feature

AT&T has been well known for hiding features that are free. When I log onto AT&T the most used letter would be $.

 

AT&T offers a Reduced Rate Suspension plan which will allow you to temporarily put your service on hold while you are away. Reduced Rate Suspend (RRS) allows you to voluntarily suspend your wireless service on a temporary basis for only $10.00 per month plus applicable tax.
Requirements for Reduced Rate Suspension (RRS) are:
-At least 6 months tenure (based on the mobile number requesting the RRS, not account
  tenure)
-Your account must be in active status
-Your account must not have a past due balance
-If you have the Equipment Insurance feature, your mobile number is not eligible for RRS,
  unless you elect to remove the feature to take advantage of RRS.
-Both voice and data rate plans are eligible for RRS.
-Important Information to Know:
-Your account can be placed on RRS only one time during a rolling 12 month calendar, after
  meeting the six month tenure requirement (based on the mobile number requesting the RRS,    not account tenure).
  o Example: If you suspend on 12/15/06 and reinstate your service on 02/13/07, your
     account will be eligible for RRS on or after 12/15/07.
-You may remain on RRS for a maximum of six consecutive months (180 days). After the six
  month period the regular rates are automatically resumed. No notification will be sent to
  you prior to the re-instatement.
-You must contact customer care to reinstate service (prior to 180 days).
  o After the six month (180 day) period the full rate and service are automatically resumed.
-RRS can only be applied once in a rolling 12 month period.
-You are eligible for the same rate plan, as well as new promotions, upon return to an active
  status.
-RRS does not affect your Terms of Service or length of contract.
-Rollover minutes will not accumulate while on RRS; however, existing banked rollover
  minutes that are scheduled to expire will still expire.
-RRS will be made effective with the next bill cycle date following the receipt of your
  request.
-Customers must request RRS via Customer Care.
Billing While on RRS:
While on RRS, you will be charged a monthly access charge of $10.00. Additional charges may be billed to the account, including taxes, airtime, toll, roaming, etc.
o Billable monthly feature charges will be suppressed and features will not need to be
  removed.
o The invoice will show the $10.00 for the monthly recurring charges and applicable taxes.
? Combined billing customers are eligible; however, the 10% discount will not be applied to the
  monthly service charges while on RRS.
? Accounts that become delinquent will follow the normal collections treatment path. RRS
  does not relieve customers of their financial responsibility to make full payment of the
  amount due.
o We offer many payment options, such as myWireless Account, payments in advance, and
  auto-pay.

Quality education continues to elude a large portion of children from the economically poor and socially disadvantaged groups in the rural and urban expanses of India. Lack of competent teachers, lack of teaching-learning materials, non-existent responsibility of authorities have all led to the current state of chasm between the haves and the have-nots.   Work an Hour 2010 focuses your attention towards our projects working towards  "bridging the gap" between the underprivileged and the privileged and requests your support to our small but still significant efforts. Lend us your hour and help us make a difference. Visit www.workanhour.org to know more. Institute of Social Work (ISW) Barasat, Kidderpore - Kolkatta, West Bengal Barasat and Kidderpore schools of ISW provide better opportunities to the poor and underprivileged sections in the communities near Kolkatta. Located in the heart of the slums in Kolkata's dock area, the Kidderpore school runs three sections: a tailoring school for girls, a coaching center for girls in middle and high school, and a non-formal education center for school dropouts. The Barasat school has nearly four hundred children enrolled in formal classes from nursery to class VIII. Most of the children come from poor families in the low income occupations such as vegetable vending and casual labor.  How successful have these efforts been? To read more click here.

Dear Asha Patron,   "The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is."  - C. S. "Jack" Lewis.   We agree. With our hallmark fund raising program – Work An Hour or WAH, as it is popularly known – we present you an opportunity to help an under privileged child in India reach his or her own bright future, whoever you are, whatever you do in your 60 minutes. Here, at Asha for Education, we ask you to participate in our unique WAH 2010 program, by symbolically working an hour towards the cause of children's education and donating an hour's worth or more of your salary.   In its 13th year, the WAH program has chosen 13 projects from all over India, after a thorough selection process with a focus on Overcoming Disabilities, Preventing Child Labor, and Bridging the Gap. For more information on these projects, please, click here.   Per Charity Navigator, America's premier independent charity evaluator, Asha For Education spends 98.4% of its funds raised on the programs. One of many criteria that has earned Asha for Education four out of four stars from Charity Navigator is its zero overhead policy – the less than 2% administrative expenses are covered with bank interest. So, every last cent of your donation goes directly to the projects sponsored. Please see Charity Navigator.   As 2214 dreamy eyed children, supported by these 13 projects, are coloring their tirangas (flags) to celebrate India's 64th Independence Day on August 15th, 2010, will you be their impetus to succeed? Please donate to bring hope through education. With warm regards, Asha for Education   Donate Now
