AT&T's $5-a-Month Internet Love Letter To Your Wallet
Breaking news from AT&T, the company that turns your internet bill into a surprise subscription horror show! Just when you thought watching your monthly fee rise $5 in November 2024 was enough, surprise! Another $5 hike lands December 1, 2025, confirmed by slick spokesperson Jim Kimberly, whose gift of corporate jargon promises 'quality service' while netting $4.9 billion profit in a quarter and $12.3 billion for 2024. Not guilty if you joined after 2024 or Ace at Autopay, says Jim. Meanwhile, loyal customers like Sean Hollister, signing up in 2022, will cross $90 month, all for the joy of buffering from the comfort of their $300 million operating-expense-funded internet.

AT&T hikes prices like it’s a gym membership—keep paying and maybe someday you’ll earn that connection speed you dreamed of.
Nothing says customer love like a company making $12 billion in profit and asking you for more dough because, ‘operating costs.’ Total budget snack, right?
