AT&T PHONE: Where Do I Pay My Bill?

You've got choices.

Option #1: Pay your bill through the mail like most people have been doing since its inception.
Option #2: Pay your bill electronically by registering an automatic payment options at att.com.
Option #3: Pay your bill at a local AT&T retailer. Ah, but which one? There are lots of small AT&T retailers throughout your neighborhood. Here's a short list:

1. 5827 Rosemead Blvd. @ 626-237-0505.
2. 217 East Valley @ 626-782-0601.
3. 4118 Rosemead Blvd. @ 626-287-2288.
4. 425 N. Santa Anita in Arcadia @626-446-6265.
5. 400 S. Baldwin, the Santa Anita Fashion Plaza @ 626-294-0370.
6. 810 East Valley, Alhambra, the Big 5 Shopping Plaza @ 626-382-0241.

The first store I drove to was the Santa Anita Ave. store. I went there because I was closest. The rep was serving a couple so I had to wait. He asked me how he could help and I told him that I wanted to pay my bill for my U-Verse account. He explained that he didn't have the software to receive and record payments. Strike one. He suggested I go down to the Valley store in El Monte. He didn't give me the address, maybe he didn't have the address or didn't know the address; but he was in the middle of helping customers, so I couldn't fault him for dropping everything that he was doing and go look up the address for me. He said that it was right there off of Valley Mall off of Santa Anita. You can't miss it. Oh, really? I did miss it; I could not find the store. I don't know if they allow you to make a payment there or not. The address is here: 10904 Valley Mall, El Monte, CA. The phone number is 626-329-0869. So I couldn't find it. Not to worry. I had my trusty list of addresses. I was prepared. So I drove west on Valley Boulevard into Alhambra. There was a store at 217 East Valley. The store is there as of August 8, 2012, but you may not find it on Google maps because it is a new store. I parked and walked in. The gentleman explained that his store does not take payments either, that I would have to go to the store in the Big 5 Shopping Plaza a little farther down on Valley. I pulled into the lot, found a spot, and walked in. I was able to pay my bill. Yay! So, if you need to pay a bill in person, that is the store to go to--810 East Valley Boulevard in the Big 5 Shopping Plaza.
