                          CSG SYSTEMS, INC. AND AT&T
                       COMMENCE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS

Englewood, CO (September 28, 2000) - CSG Systems, Inc. today announced that it
has received a Demand for Arbitration from AT&T relating to a Master Subscriber
Management System Agreement the companies entered into in 1997.

The letter states that AT&T intends to arbitrate three claims.  First, AT&T
claims that CSG has failed to fulfill its obligations under the Master Agreement
with respect to telephony software and services.  Second, the letter asks for a
declaratory judgment that the exclusivity clause of the Master Agreement does
not apply to subscribers that were acquired by AT&T after execution of the
agreement with CSG.  Third, the letter claims that CSG has breached the Most
Favored Nation clause of the agreement.  The demand for arbitration does not
make a claim for a specific amount of monetary damages, nor does it seek to
terminate the Master Agreement.

"CSG believes that each of AT&T's claims is entirely without merit and CSG
intends to defend itself vigorously in the arbitration," said Joseph Ruble, Vice
President and General Counsel for CSG Systems, Inc.  "We believe that AT&T filed
the demand for arbitration only after CSG raised serious questions about AT&T's
performance of its obligations under the agreement.  It is regretful that AT&T
chose to resolve its differences in this forum instead of in a more constructive
fashion.  As a result of this action, AT&T has only assured that it will receive
a counterclaim from CSG for the damages CSG has incurred as a result of AT&T's
refusal to live up to its obligations under the agreement."
