The Concepcions objected , but because of the small amount at stake , they did not want to sue by themselves . A California couple wanted to contest AT & T 's $ 30 sales tax charge on a `` free '' phone . Because the amount was small , they wanted to press the claim with other phone purchasers . The company said it would not do so because of its policy against such claims and that if you bought something from them then you weren't entitled to any refund or credit for your purchase.
