AT&T now allows customers to transfer billing responsibility. This means you can transfer your phone lines to another AT&T account holder, absolving you of all billing responsibility.
Important Information
- In order to transfer billing responsibility, your account has to be current, active, and a minimum of sixty days old
- You have to find a person who will take over your contract – AT&T won’t find another account holder for you
- The new account holder must be a legal adult, and they have to pass a credit check before AT&T will transfer your phones to their account
- The new account holder must assume responsibility for the remainder of your contract term, whether it’s one month or twenty-two
- Once the new account holder accepts the transfer, they’re responsible for the bill, contract term, and the account itself
AT&T makes the transfer process easy. Just log in to your myAT&T to start the process. You can also visit an AT&T retail location or contact their customer service center for assistance.
