AT&T recently began notifying customers via text message that they may add 1,000 free rollover minutes to their account. Customers need only respond to the text message sent by AT&T to add the minutes. AT&T didn't provide a motive for its generosity.

Free Rollover Minutes?
HMMM(trying to sweeten customers lives *for free?*.I dont get it this is America nothing if free.sooner or later you will pay....
They give away rollover minutes all the time, it costs nothing and 90% of the time they are unused and end up expiring....it really is no big deal, it is like giving away water.
same thing this year
Didn't they do the same thing for their at-risk customers a month before Verizon launched the iPhone in February?
I know that people tend to think that big companies like at&t are omniscient, but they really have no way of knowing who is 'at risk' of leaving for Verizon or anywhere else....they can't actually read anybody's mind and they don't know whether or not...

No Shame
Is there no limit as to how low these people will stoop to create this GSM monopoly?
Yeah, because this is EVIL, at&t should definitely be forced out of business by the FCC!
The Answer is Simple...
The iPhone is coming out to more carriers and they want to entice their customers to stay just like when they offered early upgrades to all their customers when Verizon also got the iPhone.
This has nothing to do with iPhone and everything to do with T-Mobile.

Generosity...
Would be introducing Rollover data as well, and becoming the only carrier making that offer!
that is like giving WATER away for free!
who talk on phones alot these days?
i have alot of rollover minutes left!
it would be more useful if they give away FREE DATA (like 2GB free? haha)
I Got That Two Months Ago
I accepted the offer even though I don't really need any additional minutes....
I thought it was a very odd email so I actually called to make sure the offer was legit before responding, I thought it might be phishing attempt.
