> AT&T is way better

Seconded.

I can also call AT&T and, eventually, reach someone. If I'm angry enough, I can ask to be routed to cancellation. (They fix things quicker.) If things go awry, I can threaten, and act on the threat, to escalate matters to my state regulator.

None of these are options with Google.

That is actually false. You have to pay for AT&T. If you pay for G Suite then you have access to live support.

Paying for G-Suite is no guarantee your files won’t suddenly go missing with no backups: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17115643

I pay for G-Suite for a side-project I inherited (I use Office 365 as my daily-driver) and while there is human support available, they don’t make it easy to get to. With Office 365 the phone support contact details are 2 clicks away from any screen.

Live support for what though, your YouTube account?

Any service that is covered under G Suite.
