AT&T U-verseNoted: AT&T U-verse service expects to sign up its 2 millionth customer today.

That means the company, which launched its alternative TV service in Orange County in 2007, has doubled the number of subscribers this year.

U-verse is still one of the smaller TV services available nationwide. Verizon FiOS, another Internet-based TV service, had 2.7 million by the end of September. Time Warner Cable has about 13 million customers while DirecTV has 18 million.

Currently in Orange County, U-verse is available in parts of Aliso Viejo, Anaheim, Brea, Buena Park, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, Fullerton, Garden Grove, La Habra, La Palma, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, Mission Viejo, Orange, Placentia, Rancho Santa Margarita, San Juan Capistrano, Santa Ana, Stanton, Villa Park, Westminster, and Yorba Linda.

Earlier this year, AT&T halted expansion in 7 cities in Orange County because of difficulties getting permits approved. A spokesperson from AT&T confirmed today that there are no updates on the U-verse status of these cities. Read the original series: “The AT&T U-verse impasse in O.C.

    AT&T should buy DirecTV. Having U-verse and DirecTV (NFL Package) would be a game winner for them.

  • Thomas says:

    It would be such a blessing if AT&T U-verse would buy out DirectTV. They are tied into Verizon, and I Can’t stand GTE (oops did I say GTE) I meant Verizon. I’ve lived thru the GTE ages. They can change their name to Verizon, but their still GTE !!!!. OSAMA BIN LADEN can change his name but he’s still OSAMA. I Tried of their lying to me about pricing, fixing there equipment, (you have to threaten them to get things done) Time Warner Cable can’t come into my area because of Charter, and their just as bad as GTE, ( oops there I go again)
