Several readers and iLounge editors have reported that AT&T is sending messages to iPhone customers via SMS alerting them that the company is removing itemized detail from its paper bills. The length of iPhone owners’ paper bills has been a point of criticism for the company in recent weeks. The message reads: “We are simplifying your paper bill, removing itemized detail. To view all detail go to att.com/mywireless. Still need full paper bill? Call 611.”

I got my text msg today and it reminded me to log into my acct online and discontinue the paper bill. I’m glad to see this change and I can’t remember the last time I went past the first page of my phonebill to begin with.
