AT&T Business Fiber customers looking to move their setup may be in for a costly surprise. Some small business users have found that relocating an existing AT&T fiber line can come with a hefty price tag.
The Price Tag of Moving AT&T Fiber
AT&T has been touting its fiber network upgrades, such as Express Waves, which promise improved cloud, AI, and edge performance. However, the convenience of these upgrades may come at a cost – with some users reporting quotes of over $15,000 from AT&T just to move their fiber line a few feet during an office renovation.

Depending on the circumstances, the high relocation costs might not be an anomaly. One user reported receiving a $12,000 quote from another provider for relocating their fiber line to a new building, only an eighth of a mile away.

For those considering AT&T Business Fiber, it's essential to carefully consider the entry point of the fiber line in your building and ask detailed questions upfront. Moving the line post-installation could end up being far more expensive than anticipated, potentially leading to unexpected costs for small businesses.
