Then why's the domain "ATT" when the companys called something else.
You don't go round calling yahoo "Y".

I don't like the look of that company.
There up to something and that's why they don't use there real name for the domain.

AT&T == American Telephone & Telegraph, they've been around for a very long time.

Well see there is another fault there, Telegraph and Telephone is the same thing isn't it? and there no mention of any internet.
Better make sure there not resellers.

Just for Ned, you can access it through atandt.com.

It's the American equivalent of BT, but they don't really hold a monopoly like BT does.

The domain name, claiming to sell morse code lines, it appears they do not tell you the price of there stuff unless you know a place in America which isn't very universal and that makes me suspicious that there prices are high.



Atlanta


Chicago


Dallas


Denver


Florida - Jacksonville, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale


Midwest - Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana


Northeast - Boston, Hartford, New Haven, Springfield, Holyoke


Pittsburgh, PA / Richmond, VA/ Cleveland, OH


Oregon & South-West Washington


Rocky Mountain Area - Montana, Wyoming, Colorado (except Denver Metro)


Sacramento


Salt Lake City - Logan, Ogden, Provo


San Francisco Bay Area


Seattle


Southern California



Now that list, every place listed above is crime ridden which makes me suspicious.
