Cingular and Verizon have plans that include Mexico.  Does anyone know if
ATT has a similar plan?

What did they say when you called?

Why call, when you can get lots of bad information here?  ;-)

I didn't call them, I looked at their website and didn't see anything.  As
this forum (and various other ones show), customer service often knows less
than anyone else.  For example (changing companies) most T-Mobile customer
support people don't know about legacy roaming rates.

Joseph, you are bright, you know your stuff, but you are awfully intemperate
at times.  I contribute as much to these forums as I take out.    Cut me a
little slack.

Despite any good bad or indifferent information you get on usenet
you'd be a foolish person to take what someone says in a usenet news
group over what someone who works for the company says.  If you're
dealing with the company always get their rep ID and make sure that
when you deal with them they note it on your account.

Your point is well taken.  I've done that in other contexts, particularly
where I assumed that others would disagree.  What I had hoped for (and
obviously doesn't exists) is one of the almost hidden tariffs.  Once you
know it is there, you can latch on to them.  For example, FIDO has a $10 (it
may have changed a bit) zero minute plan which  no one talks about at FIDO.
Cingular's North American plan was not particularly well published.  Orange
certainly didn't talk about OVP Virgin when they were offering it.

Point well taken, however if it does become common knowledge that
something exists the companies are (I would think) not going to deny
that plans, phones, etc. do not exist.  They may not be on the web
page or they may not even be in the standard material that each
customer service rep has in front of them, but when you ask I'd think
that *someone* at the places where you get the "official" information
will have that information and it can be found by them.
