Does AT&T wireless really not offer call forwarding? My current T-mobile plan gives me 500 call-forward minutes. AT&T says they have nothing like this, and in fact will charge $.45 a minute on forwarded calls.[More:]
Cell service at my house is crappy no matter who I use, so I turn off my phone and forward calls to my home number.

I called AT&T wireless to check this aspect before I switched, and I'm sure glad I did. The worst I was expecting was that the forwarded calls would come out of my regular minutes. They told me that no, they are just billed directly at $.45/min. This seemed so insane that I called and asked someone else, and they confirmed it.

What the hell?
Answering my own questions with Google, but finding conflicting information. This link says that it just uses your regular minutes.

This link says that you may receive per-minute charges. The person on the phone definitely indicated that was the case. Blah.

Well, a third call and some more searching makes it look like they just deduct it from your minutes. Not as bad. Blah.
