AT&T deposit $449 경험 하신분 찾습니다..
방문연구원으로 새로 샌디에고 생활 시작한지 만 4주가 된 사람입니다.
인터넷과 TV 사용 위하여 AT&T 매장에 방문하여 상담하였고
가입조건으로 Deposi으로 $449 요구하여 결재하였습니다. 이는 Social Credit이 없는 경우 요구하게 된다고 합니다.
헌데 이 금액은 이후 Bill의 내용을 보고 AT&T사의 on-line 상담을 받아본 결과
돌려 받기가 어려울수 있는 것으로 파악이 됩니다.
Sales맨과는 6개월 이후 Payback해준다고 설명을 들었는데 결론적으로 애매하게 될수 있습니다..
따라서 상담하게 될 때 저와 같이 Deposit을 요구하는 경우 반드시 Re-fundable receipt를 요구하고 가입하시기 바랍니다..
혹시 저와 같이 애매한 경우가 발생할 수 있는 상황을 이곳에 정착하시는 분들이 다시 경험하시지 않도록 참고하시라고 저의 경험을 올려 놓습니다.
그리고 혹시 유사한 경험이 있으신분들께서는 함께 고민해 보고 싶으니 연락주시기 바랍니다..

AT&T사로 문의한 결과 $449의 정체를 다음과 같이 회신을 받았습니다. 참고하시라고 올려드립니다..(헌데 내용을 보면 결코 돌려줄 의사가 없는 듯합니다..)
Here is what the terms of service agreement say with regards to your $449 deposit:
Advance Payments, Deposits, Fees and Limits. We may require you to make deposits or advance payments for Services, which we may use to satisfy your initial bill for Services, to offset against any unpaid balance on your account, or as otherwise set forth in these TOS or permitted by law. Interest will not be paid on advance payments or deposits unless required by law. We may require additional advance payments or deposits if we determine that the initial payment was inadequate. Upon determination solely by AT&T of satisfactory payment history or as required by law, AT&T may begin refunding of the deposit or advance payment through bill credits, cash payments, or as otherwise determined solely by AT&T. Based on your creditworthiness, a non-refundable fee may be required to establish service and we may require you to enroll, and remain enrolled, in an automatic payment or electronic funds transfer plan. We may establish additional limits and restrict service or features as we deem appropriate. If your account balance goes beyond the limit we set for you, we may immediately interrupt or suspend service until your balance is brought below the limit. Any charges you incur in excess of your limit become immediately due.

저의 경우에는 SSN이 없을 경우 deposit을 $250 요구하여, 지인분을 sponsor로 하여 가입하였습니다.. 후에 다른 지인분께 어째서 AT&T로 가입했냐는 말씀을 들었습니다...AT&T가 좀 까다로운듯 합니다...
