          This Amendment No. 3 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D relating to shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value ("Common Stock"), of Metrocall, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), that was filed on February 14, 2000 by AT&T Corp., a New York corporation ("AT&T"), and its then wholly-owned subsidiary, AT&T Wireless Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Wireless"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed by AT&T and Wireless on February 28, 2000, and as amended by Amendment No. 2 thereto filed by AT&T Corp. and Wireless on March 24, 2000.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

          This Amendment No. 3 to the Statement on Schedule 13D is being filed by AT&T and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Card Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Global," and collectively with AT&T, the "Reporting Persons"). AT&T is among the world's communications leaders, providing voice, data and video telecommunications services to large and small businesses, consumers and government entities. AT&T and its subsidiaries furnish regional, domestic, international, local and Internet communication transmission services, including cellular telephone and other wireless services, and cable television services. The principal executive offices of AT&T are located at 32 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10013-2412. The principal executive offices of Global Card Holdings Inc. are located at Suite 201, 7979 East Tufts Avenue, Denver Colorado 80237.

          The name, business address and present principal occupation or employment of each director and executive officer of AT&T are set forth in Schedule I hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. Each such person is a citizen of the United States.

          The name, business address and present principal occupation or employment of each director and executive officer of Global are set forth in Schedule II hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. Each such person is a citizen of the United States.

          During the last five years, neither of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Schedule I or Schedule II hereto (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

          On February 2, 2000, Wireless and the Issuer entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which Wireless agreed to exchange 10,378 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer (the "Series C Shares") for certain securities of the Issuer. The closing under the Exchange Agreement occurred on March 17, 2000, at which the Issuer issued 13,250,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Metrocall Shares") to Wireless in exchange for the Series C Shares.

          McCaw Communications Companies, Inc., a Washington corporation wholly owned by Wireless ("McCaw"), acquired 9,500 of the Series C Shares from the Issuer on October 1, 1998, in partial consideration of the sale to the Issuer of the Messaging Division of Wireless. The remaining Series C Shares were issued in lieu of dividends payable on the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. Subsequent to the sale of the Messaging Division, McCaw transferred all of the Series C Shares held by it to Wireless in an intercompany transfer.

          On June 19, 2001, Wireless sold the Metrocall Shares to Global for a purchase price of $1,192,500.00, which Global paid out of working capital. As a result of this purchase, Global became the beneficial owner, and Wireless ceased to be the beneficial owner, of more than five percent of the Common Stock.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

          (a) Global is the beneficial owner of the Metrocall Shares. The Metrocall Shares represent approximately 14.7% of the total number of shares of Common Stock reported by the Issuer as issued and outstanding in its most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q. AT&T, as the parent of Global, may be deemed to beneficially own the Metrocall Shares. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons listed on Schedule  I or Schedule II hereto beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer.

          (b) Global Card and AT&T, as its parent, share the power to vote or to direct the voting of, and the power to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, the Metrocall Shares.

          (c) Except as otherwise set forth herein, neither Reporting Person nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Schedule I or Schedule II hereto, has executed transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.

          (d) Except for the Reporting Persons, there is no person that has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Metrocall Shares.

          (e) Following the transfer of the Metrocall Shares to Global on June 19, 2001, Wireless was not the beneficial owner of any Common Stock.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT

        TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

          Global purchased the Metrocall Shares from Wireless on June 19, 2001. In connection with this purchase, Wireless assigned to Global all of the rights of Wireless, and Global assumed all of the obligations of Wireless, under the Exchange Agreement.

          Under the Exchange Agreement, Global will be obligated not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Metrocall Shares, except as follows:

          (a) Global may sell all or any portion of the Metrocall Shares at any time or times in one or more privately negotiated sales to any person or group that is not a "Restricted Person," so long as Global and the transferee comply with the following:

               (i) Prior to consummating any such sale, Global must give written notice to the Issuer specifying the number of Metrocall Shares that Global desires to sell. For a period of five business days following such notice, the Issuer will have the exclusive right to negotiate with Global with respect to the purchase of such Metrocall Shares by the Issuer or its nominee. Global will have the right to reject any offer made by the Issuer or its nominee during such period. If no such offer is made and accepted prior to the expiration of such period, Global will have the right for a period of three months following expiration of such period to offer and sell such Metrocall Shares on such terms and conditions as shall be acceptable to Global.

               (ii) The transferee of such Metrocall Shares must consent in writing to be bound by the provisions of the Exchange Agreement.

The term "Restricted Person" generally means (A) any entity with annual revenues in excess of $500 million and a market capitalization of $500 million that is principally engaged in the business of providing telecommunications services, and (B) any beneficial owner of 5% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Stock (other than certain beneficial owners that report such holdings on Schedule 13G), or $25 million or more in principal amount of the outstanding debt, of Arch Communications Group, Inc., Weblink Wireless, Inc., Paging Network, Inc. or any entity described in the preceding clause (A).

Page 4 of 11

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

          (b) At any time or times, Global may make a public sale of all or any portion of the Metrocall Shares, subject to the following:

               (i) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock sold during each period shown in the following table (a "Period") cannot exceed the sum of (A) the number of shares indicated in the table for that Period, plus (B) the number of shares that could have been but were not publicly sold during any prior Period (the number of shares determined by such sum for any Period is referred to as the "Permitted Period Shares"):

Period                                   Permitted Sales

3/17/2001 - 9/16/2001                    2,650,000 shares

9/17/2001 - 3/16/2002                    2,650,000 shares

3/17/2002 - 9/16/2002                    2,650,000 shares

On or after 9/17/2002                    5,300,000 share

               (ii) Prior to making any such sale in any Period, Global must notify the Issuer of its intention to do so. For a period of five business days following such notice, the Issuer will have the option to conduct an underwritten offering of all of the Permitted Period Shares pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The number of shares to be included in the registration statement may be reduced to the extent that the managing underwriter determines that inclusion of the shares would adversely affect the marketing of the offering, but the reduction must apply first to any persons other than Global whose shares are to be included in such registration.

          (c) Global may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Metrocall Shares pursuant to a tender offer, merger, sale of all or substantially all the Issuer's assets or any similar transaction that offers each holder of Common Stock (other than, if applicable, the person proposing such transaction and its affiliates) the opportunity to dispose of Common Stock for the same consideration or otherwise contemplates the acquisition of Common Stock beneficially owned by each such holder for the same consideration.

          (d) Global may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Metrocall Shares upon the occurrence of a change of control which causes the holder and/or its affiliates to receive an attributable interest in any radio spectrum or FCC service with respect to which the FCC or applicable law imposes a spectrum cap, multiple ownership restriction, or other material limitation.

          In connection with the purchase of the Metrocall Shares by Global, Wireless assigned to Global all of the rights of Wireless, and Global assumed all of the obligations of Wireless, under the Registration Rights Agreement dated March 17, 2000. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer has (a) filed a shelf registration statement under the Securities Act for resale of the Metrocall Shares, and (b) agreed to use all its reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all of the Metrocall Shares have either been sold or are eligible for resale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act without regard to the volume limitations of Rule 144(e).

          The summary of the Exchange Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement contained in this Schedule 13D is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of such documents, which are filed as exhibits hereto and are hereby incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

          Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 or listed on Schedule I or Schedule II hereto, and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities of the Issuer, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, or a pledge or contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power over the securities of the Issuer.
