T-Mobile Complaints Continued... (Page 11)

I’ve been a t-mobile customer since 2003. I bought a NOKIA 710 windows phone in 2012 for top dollar — no discount for me and no indication it was being phased out. Now apparently they discontinued it 4 months later and the accessories are no longer available. My phone started heating up to the point of damaging the case. After calling t-mobile they advised me to go to a store to purchase a battery. I went to one of their retail stores that very day and was told that they didnt stock the battery and to go on Amazon to order one!!! I also was told that if during by wait for the battery to be delivered my phone got damaged to the point it wouldn’t work, not to worry because my insurance would cover a replacement! Great customer service– NOT!!!! Thus will be my last year with t- mobile.

I purchased a new cell phone in march 2012, for $240 and it carried a year manufacturer warranty. In july 2012 the phone stopped working, took it back to the the store and it was replaced, (never did they tell me this was a refurbished phone) The phone worked ok till April 2013, then this phone stopped, I called customer service and was told by the rep that the phone was under warranty until 2013, but I had to go to a metro pcs corporate store. I told her fine, and asked her to put a note on my sons account so that there would be no problem, well he went to the metro corporate store and was told there is no warranty on this phone even though the rep I talked to on the phone told me it was under warranty even though they gave me a refurbished phone in july 2012. My complaint is I brought a new phone for $240 and now am stuck with a refurbished phone with no warranty. I manager DJ from trenton location called and said ok we will replaced the phone with another refurbished phone for $30. I asked him I feel that is an insult, NOW I would have almost $300 tied up in a used phone. Dj said he was going to pass my compalint onto someone else but didnt know if they coudl do anything. I dont think it is right that Metro takes you money for a new phone and then when there is a problem with the phone they give us a used phone to replace it. so they are in aa win win situation, they collect from the wearranty co for the phone and pocked my 240 and then they want another $30 to replaced a used phone which they gave me that for my new phone, seems like this is what they call a switch and bait. Now I am going to wait to see if someone gets back to me to resolve my problem I am sure there are a lot more people out there that have been scammed by Metro, seems to me there should be some kind of class action suit against them for this type of fraud.

Early this april i was contacted by tmobile customer service about what they termed reward offer for having been with them long. Was offered iphone 4 white free,100mins,1GB,unltd tmobile calls to tmobile & 500 text for £21 including tax.Unfortunately missed my package due to my working schedule,i reached tmobile to ask UKmail return my pckage to them so i could be able to collect it from any near by sore which they did.Reaching tmobile store stratford centre i aws asked to pay £29 for the handset because the deal was not from them,i didnt like this and i explained to their staff Joanna.It was only 4days past and i was told in store i still could cancel my contract if i am not happy because there was an ongoing deal that was much far better i decided to ask the team cancel my contract so i could go in for another contract which was done but cancelling still in process.I continued to call & remind customer care why my line was still on contract yet i had cancelled it ,they later got it back on pay as yo go, now with surprise tmobile cut off my two lines insisting i owe them £29 for the cancelled contract despite all the effort done explaining myselt to its customer care team and promising they had up dated my account i will not have to pay because i didnt use no minutes nor GB and cancelling was in time! Iam soo stressed and feel ignored now that they have gone to cut off my lines.

If I complain aboput T-mobile does this e-mail get the them to deal with as Im about to get an ombudsman involved and need to know that they have recieved this complaint thankyou.

I visited this T-MOBILE store at 2900 Peachtree Road on Tuesday 4/9/2013. What happened on my end i lost my T-249 charger. I phoned T-MOBILE to find out if i could get another charger and have it added to my account or be billed. The representative told me to go to any store location and they would take care of it! I phoned the store and informed “Ryan” i needed an charger for my phone and she said the cost was $29.99. I went to the store to see if they had the charger T-249. I asked “Ryan” a Black girl did they have any T-249 charges and she said before looking or checking “No” and the young lady working with her said they did and it was red! So, i said ok and informed them about the arrangement T-MOBILE had made with me! and “Ryan” said they didn’t or had no way to put the charger on my account! I called T-MOBILE they spoke to Ryan (a black girl) and came to a conclusion that i would need to purchase it myself and T-MOBILE would credit it to my account, which i thought was alright but then i thought about and thinking i could probably get another cheaper at Radio Shack or Walmart.
Ryan at this point was unconcerned about my situation and showed no remorse as if i wasn’t suppose to be in the store with this issue anyway! She talked to her co worker the whole time i was in the store and acted as if she didn’t care what happened. T-MOBILE said they would make the agreement with me since i have been a

valuable customer for eight years (2005). Ryan had no suggestions for me and i left the store very upset! When i got home i called T-MOBILE and asked for management! I asked who she was and she said the manager “Keisha” and she said she had stepped out the store when i was there! So, i was in disbelief and thinking it was “Ryan” and/or somebody pretending to be the manager, so i told Keisha i didn’t need anything and looked for other ways to complain! So, here i am! I was so upset i forgot my sunglasses! and they were talking and ignoring the fact that i left them! Little did “Ryan” know! I ran into another customer who said they will be making a complaint as well about “Ryan”. At least that’s what her name tag said! and she was black ans petite with long weaved hair. I ended up ordering a charger from amazon for $4.00. Also, my contrat is up in August! and from my understanding was suppose to be in March! but was extended due to my lost phone and having to get a replacement. I am very disappointed that T- MOBILE hire people who don’t care about whether their customers are happy or not!

Four weeks ago I wrote to you as I had a large payment coming out of my bank account. You called me to advise you had investigated and it was a scam and the fraud department was investigating. I have heard nothing since then and want the money refunding to me as a matter of urgency. The number I have supposedly called I cannot conect to from my phone yet I have been charged for 2 calls totalling in excess of 3 hours to this number. My number is 07535701123 and I have had a contract with you for a long time but will be changing if this is not resolved immendiate. I want all costs for calls to this number refunding together with the cost of paper bills which I had to order to find out why the bill was so high. I also need compensation for time and associated costs due to the length of time this is taking to resolve.

To whom it may concern- I browsed for a new cell phone today at T-Mobile in Eagan MN approximately 4:30pm today and found two I liked. They checked my account and explained that due to my credit I had to pay a higher amount for the phone to buy it. They suggested I call customer support for further assistance since I just checked my credit and am in good standing.

Upon calling T-Mobile a total of 4times in 4hours thanks to them disconnecting me, while on hold I was told by 3 different representatives that T-mobile bases my credit on when I signed up with the company 9years ago. Also, that no one can do anything about this or are able to work with this situation. In other words, my best bet is to cancel services and go to Verizon who will look at my current credit rating and treat me appropriately.

I didn’t ask for a lower price on a phone but that with my loyalty, payment history and current credit rate, that I be treated right, however T-Mobile reps appreciate my loyalty will not show any respect towards me or my long service with the company.

Since, I have been with T-Mobile for 9 years I am willing to continue service if they are willing to make this right. In short, I ask that T-mobile update my credit standing with them, provide a cell phone of my choosing or release me from both lines of service without charge so I can do business with a company who will respect me.

Good Day,I signed a 2 year contract with T-mobile in January 2011. On January 13th I called customer service to inform them that my contract was over; I was told that my contract was extended to 2014 with no reason as to why or who extended my contract.

I was told that in order to end the contract that I would have to e-mail to contract dispute which I did not several occasions, I was also informed that I would hear back from them within 10 working days..a month and a half later still have not heard anything.

I then faxed twice to contract dispute and no reply. I called customer service over 25 times to try to get a answer as to why my contract was extended and again no help. I went into a t-mobile store and spoke to the manager and was put on the phone with customer service and was told I would hear back from them in 3-4 weeks.

I asked for a name or someone I can speak with at the corporate level and was told by the manager, they have no names, phone numbers, e-mail addresses of anyone in the corporate level. I finally called customer service again informed then that my contract was up and I would no longer care to have t-mobile as my provider.

I am very disappointed in the no service I have received from this company, I have been so stressed out due to the service that I have received. I work in the Hotel industry and we would never treat a customer as I was treated by t-mobile. I have never had a issue with any other provider as I did with t-mobile.

The sales representative mislead me to sigh a 2 years contract when I ask for a prepaid card since i am an exchange student overseas for a year here. He was saying that I don’t need to pay any penalty when I cut my phone number since its a prepaid card. However, T-mobile kept sending me the email saying that I need to pay 200 penalty if I want to cut the number.

Or I can send them my permanent resident ID and address and my passport . I sent them the documents as they required but they said its not acceptable since there are Chinese and English on it. They accept only English document. I don’t understand what’s the point when my documents have Chinese as well, they can just read the English. Nobody was trying to help but sending me the same email ask me to pay 200 dollars for early termination

I’ve had TMobile for a long time, but when I moved to Dayton, Ohio, service changed. I have called to speak with tech support numerous times about lack of coverage in my area, and have tried all they have suggested. In early December 2012, I spoke to tech support again, & they referred me to accounting to see if an upgraded phone would help. After researching my situation, the person I spoke to said that because service towers are mainly near the highway systems of Dayton, service inside Dayton & surrounding cities would NOT improve with an upgraded phone.

She suggested that I contact you to see if I could get an early termination waver. As a nurse I need more reliable service, & tho I’ve contacted takeaction.com, I’ve received no assurance that more towers are set to be added in my area in the near or distant future. I would appreciate an early termination fee waver from TMobile. Please call my cell to discuss this matter as soon as you receive this notice.

I spoke with 4 different T-Mobile employees at different times and received different information each time. I spoke with Teraneka the week of 01/07/13 about adding internet to my four lines. She stated to me that if I did it this week I would have no bill due the month of February and that the new monthly rate would be $209.98. I told her I needed to speak to the individuals on the plan and she asked me for my number and if she could call me back the next day. I replied yes but never recieved a follow up phone call from her.

Then on Friday (01/18/13) I spoke with Isaiah because my son lost his phone and Isaiah deactivated the phone line so know one could use it. Then Isaiah and I started talking about adding internet, so I told him I spoke with Teraneka and she quoted me $209.98. He said he didn’t know why because by looking at his computer the monthly bill would be $157.23. I asked him if he had a phone number or an extension so I could call him back because I was driving. He said no but that I could call 611 and any T-Mobile representative could help me. I talked with Ebony on 01/21/13 about adding internet and prices because I had recieved several different quotes.

Ebony said that the other quotes I had recieved were incorrect and then went on to quote me 154.32 after taxes. Then I asked if she was sure that was after taxes to which she replied, “I always add my taxes in to give the customers exactly what their monthly bill would be.” She also said that if we switched over today, March would be free and if we wanted to wait on purchasing phones we could take advantage of the upgrade in March.

I went on to ask her because my son needed a phone since he had lost his she said she would put in for a free SIM card and that I could go in to any T-Mobile store and get a SIM card for the phone that was lost. Then I asked if my old SIM card would be compatible with any T-Mobile phone and she said yes. So we went to store #9381 to get the SIM card and began to brose the selection of phones. I was under the immpression that when you sign a new two year agreement with T-Mobile you are elligable for an upgrade and discount on a new phone.

That is when the sales representative proceded to inform me that I was not and had to purchase my phone in a T-Mobile phone which was not discussed with me over the phone. She informed me that I was on the value plan, not the classic plan, which I had never heard of because the plan I was on was never discussed with me. I became upset and frustrated with all of the false information after signing a two year contract with four phone lines.

I asked her if there was a manager or a number for a manager that I could call to speak with about this matter and she very rudely said call 611. We left the store and as we were getting in the car my son informed me that she was rolling her eyes at me. I called 611 and spoke with somebody named Tammy. She was very nice, after listening to what happened she transfered my call to a man named Joseph. Joseph again listened to my story, apologized and gave me this website to write the complaint. He also told me to go back to the T-Mobile store and that I could pay the down payment of $25 for each phone and he would take care of the rest. My sister and I went to store #9385.

We were looking at phones and asked the sales asscociate Bob why the same phones at store #9381 were $0 and the phones here were $29.99. I asked him if he could call the other store and see what the difference was and he very rudely said,”No, I will not call the store for you.” I was furious from the rude service I had received from your employees. I was heading out of the door when Danielle, another of your employees, came to us and helped us. She had excellent customer service skills and was very helpful. She told my sister and I that T-Mobile was trying to do away with the classic plan and that is why nobody mentioned it.

I wouild like to say that , when I purchase my phones with T-Mobile the manger gave me price that would be our monthly payment , I ask him several times would it be this every month , he said yes , but time when on it came up to be about 38.00 dollars more. also before I purchase the phones my wife stop in and look at phones, he took all her info . but when it got down to cost she told him that she had to talk to me , the next two days I went to store to look , I purchase the phones but also he went and did a contract on her with out her consense . cause she got bill month later , all this is being going on for year to get this straight out this man is not at store , anymore . the people in service just don’t understand this , I finally got a person on 1-15-13 , to help me , and tell me to email service contract . the store were I purchase the phones all they doing is asking to send then boxes of contracts until they find my, this is not right . I want service and I want my contract to be voided . this is been to long and we paying to much , cause we just can’t drop it , it go toward my credit .

I finally decided to add the internet to several of my phones and per the employee there would not be any extra charges for going over the coverage. It would just slow down because it was the unlimited package. I then replied during our phone conversation to make sure that I underestood that when the max limit was reached it would just slow down but no extra charges for over usage.. He guaranteed me that was correct. When receiving my next bill it was over $1800.00 because he did not set the plan up correctly as discussed during our phone conversation. I called when I received the bill and spoke with Emma and was told I would have to change from the Suncom plan to T-mobile to keep from paying the amount due. I explained to her that I was already having trouble with two of my phone lines not being paid from other people and that their contract was ending 12/25/12 and was there anything I could do to keep them from changing to the new plan. She told me that she would only be able to do one line which was suppose to be (803)221-2649. All my lines where change now having a 2 yr contract on each. I feel that if the original person would have done their job correctly setting up the internet I would not be in this situation. I have been a customer for 8-9 years and I feel that I have been taken advantage of and should not have had to change my plan because of someone not doing their job correctly and as I was told how it worked. If there is anyway please review the information or phone call on the date I added internet and when I spoke to Emma and had to change plans.. I do not agree with the contract this should have all been handled differently. This should never be at the expense of a customer it should be followed through with the employee that made or makes the errors. This has gotten me to where I do not trust anything when it comes to my phone coverage plans . Please look into this and see what can be done. Thank You in advance for your help. Shannon Beard

I am an adult and my boyfriend got us phones from Tmobile under the friends n family plan after i found out he had me marked as under the age of 17 i called tmobile and explained to them that i was in fact not a minor and was being tracked and located costomer service rep. said she would fix that and she wasnt aware i was an adult she said she was sorry again and again saying the problem would be fixed now i have found out not only has the problem not been fixed it has gotten extremely worse now my cell phone numbers, texts, voicemails, email, and all accounts trusted through my tmobile plan have been willingly given through tmobile to violate my civil and constitutional rights as an adult.

I have tmobile serviceand on Nov 14, 2012 my phone service was cancelled stating that my someone reported the phone stolen which i didnt do..and this was the day before my birthday— image no phone on your birthday and the only thing they could tell me that dont worry we already sent you another phone..but the point is i am without a phone for my birthday and they charge me for sending another phone when all in all i never reported my phone lost so i cancelled my service then get a bill for $642 charging me cancellation fee which they are the one too turn my phone off that was so called stolen and charge me for another phone

On November 28 2012, I renewed my contract with T-mobile by phone. The person who I talked to is Noralee D. I told her that AT&T was trying to give me a good deal with free cell phones with a 2-year contract and I asked her that if T-mobile were to give me the same deal I would stay with them with a new 2-year contract. She said that she would give me the same deal and that it would be in the new contract, so I signed it, and now they are trying to charge me the phones. Everything is recorded in my contract that I did by phone that day, my number account is 674406369. Thank you for your time.

when i did the contract on dec. 26 2012 . I call back on the 27 of dec. to cancel it . The person I talk to told me i call in time to cancel the contract that when the phone come in just return them back to them not open. I did that , Now they tell me i can’t cancel my contract. I talk with four people before that time noone told me that . they told me that when i return the phone back , I would be able to cancel my contract. I wont my contract to end in jan. please let me out of thia contract. I can’t used my phone when i go home to see my mother. I need my phone at all time. when i go into building my phone is dead . I need a phone that would work for me now. I used my phone now more than i did before so i don’t need for it to go dead on me for just going out of town to see my mother.

I would like you to review my account as I am being charged a fee for ending my contract. I don’t feel I should have to pay the fee or any charges after the date of Dec. 7th 2012. The reason I am disputing this fee is because I moved about 4 months ago and I had no reception in my new home. I had to walk down the street about 3 blocks before my phone would work. My phone also didn’t seem to have reception inside buildings, such as walmart and grocery stores in the area. I called 2 months ago and explained this to one of your customer service agents. He told me that I would be able to get out of my contract with no fees as this was an inconvience to me and there was nothing that could be done to increase my reception in this area. I went to St. Cloud and spoke with a Verizon wireless person about reception in my area and was reassured that my reception would be much better if I switched over. So I switched to verizon and now I can sit in my living room and talk to my family and friends without having to walk three blocks down the road. I can also make and recieve calls in my work building at walmart and in my car with no hassel. I have always been a good customer to you and would have stayed with your services had they not inconvienced me. I am asking to cancel my contract with no fees, I don’t feel this is too much to ask, especially since one of your representatives told me it wouldn’t be.

Thank you for your consideration on this matter and will be looking forward to having this issue resolved promptly.

My bill shows a $200 termination Fee on it for phone # 253.632.3729 and I was told when i called to get me a new phone on 11.24.12 that all 3 lines are done with contract (2 years over) so I ask them what would happen if I got rid of this line and upgraded mine 253.334.3367 . They said no fee will be added.

Well they added $200 fee to my surprise when I opened the bill yesterday.

Question: why would someone want to add a large fee if they knew about it. This should of been upgraded without doing anything to my other 2 lines….

I have been a loyal customer for over 7 years, but due to financial difficulties I had switched services that offerred me the same services at way better rates. I kept my current phone number and T Mobile services were discontinued on Oct. 31, 2012, but T Mobile kept billing me till November 23, 2012. The only explanation I had gotten was that I was still obligated to pay to the end of the billing period, which doesn’t make sense if I had no service during this time. I understand and and willing to pay for the 6 days that I still had services from T Mobile till the ending of October, but having being billed for services not rendered is not fair. I cannot believe I am treated this way after all my years as a loyal customer. I’d like to know what are my rights and if I can hold T Mobile liable for their daily harassment of trying to collect on services not rendered?

On December 3rd, 2012 I spoke to Rep. Amber regarding the end of my old cell contract ending on December with a final payment of $49.84. After negotiations, it was agreed that my new cell plan would start on November 27th, 2012 with a monthly charge of $29.99 minus a $10.00 discount (per month) as recognition for being a loyal customer. It was understood, by both T-mobil Rep. Amber and myself, that my new cell contract would come down from the old grand total of $49.84 to the new grand total of approximately $23.71 (after discount) per month for a total contract time of 24 months. Today I received the first bill statement showing a grand total of $38.21 which doesn’t reflect neither the grand total amount I had agreed to pay back on 12/03 nor does it show the monthly $10.00 loyal customer discount. In conclusion, I did not agree to enter in another T-mobil contract for any other grand total monthly amount that exeeded the agreed amount of approximately $23.71 per month for a total of 24 months term. Today, January 3rd, 2013, I spoke to Rep. Alisa who would tell me that T-mobile isn’r able to honor my contract agreement grand total amount because my current monthly charge is of $29.99 and thus making it not eligible for a monthly $10.00 loyal customer discount resulting in a new grand total of approximately $23.71 per month for a 24 month duration. The new contract grand total doesn’t match the agreed monthly grand total discussed back on December 3rd, 2012 when I spoke to Rep.Amber and the new contract grand total was reached!! Today I got the first cell statement showing a total current charge of $38.21 instead of the agreed monthly total charge of approximately $2371.

I live in Bayville NY and i have always had spotty service in my local area. Since hurricane Sandy the service has been terrible. Since the storm we must use a detour to get in and out of town, it takes about 30 minutes extra and it will be like this for about one year. We come home late over dark country roads and we lose service!!!! My wife is disabled and i am afraid that she may have car trouble sonetime and not have phone service,I have been dealing with people for three days now and they say it could take a week or more to find out whats wrong, we are senior citizens so this more a safety issue than an inconvience. at first i just wanted it fixed but after all the run around now i just want out!!!!! we are on a fixed income so i can not afford to pay a penaltyfor something that is not my fault Please contact me with help My cell number is 516 528 7669

On Friday December the 7th 2012 I called to sign a 2 years contract for a hot spot and the lady I spoke with told me first I’gona have a free phone I don’t receive it, second she said I gona have 20 days to try it and the 20 days started the day I received the device I don’t receive I waited 1 week and I called back to ask them about the device they told the UPS guy left front the door I don’t see it and they said the UPS guy don’t suppose to leave it front the door I have to sign a paper to make sure I received it and they told me they investigated for that and they send me a new one and I received December the 21th 2012 I called them back and asked when the 20 days started because I just it received they told me the 21th the day I received before the contract I asked how mega bites I have They told me unlimited it’s not true because I can’t open any video I want to watch the news from my country I can’t I want to cancel it and they ask me $200 for cancellation fee and it’s not 20 days yet I’m not paying nothing & I’m ready to cancel all my services.

I recently went on a trip to Ecuador, before my trip I called T mobile for instructions on how to turn off my phone , so as not to receive any calls. I was instructed by an employee (jose) to put in #763# and that would turn off my phone. After my trip I came home and was socked with a bill for 95.84. I called Tmobile and talked to a person by the name of Grahm and his Manager Steffi, after explaining that I was wrongly instructed prior to my trip on how to shut down my phone , all they did was reduce my charge by 66.66. Its not the money that bothers me here it’s the fact that I was giving instructions that were wrong and I have to pay for Jose’s mistake. I have been with t mobile for quite a while now, this is the first time that I have had a real negative issue with you. Your customer service is in question here, I am not lying on this. If you look at the bill it’s obvious I never intended to use my phone (no outgoing calls). ,Iwas in ecuador for three weeks ,I am anticipating another bill because of the same error.These bills should be erased, it was Jose error not mine, if they are not I will terminate our relationship. Thank You, Steven Alonte

I have a Tmobile phone. I am unable to use my phone when I am with in 10 miles of my home. That means more than half of the time my phone will not work. It reads only emergency calls. I have tried changing sims cards. I asked for a booster for home. I have tried everything possible to keep my service. If you will read on my account there is no service available where I live. I am asking to be let out of my contract so I may find a service provider in my area. Thank you I await your reply. mY ACCOUNT NUMBER IS 841372818

Account Number: 446 933 717
Both Cell Phone Numbers are: (917)328-3396 and (718)581-4262

My contract was renewed without my knowledge when I went to purchase a new cell phone for my wife’s birthday (May 2012). I was told that the ‘My Touch’ that I was purchasing for my wife had a great deal if I would buy two. Since I had a G1 and needed an upgrade myself, I took the the deal and filled out a rebate form to get money back. I guess it was after filling out the application and the rebate form was when my contract got renewed. I thought it was going to be a simple switch but after finding out about the $50 no contract deal, I found out that I had just been put under contract and the only way for me to get out of it is to pay $200 cancellation fee for each line. Can you help me with this issue so that I don’t have to pay $200 cancellation fee for each line. I also never got my rebate money after sending the rebate application just a couple of hours after purchasing the ‘MyTouch’ phones. I am not angry, I am just confused as to why this happened. I had no prior problems with T-mobile until this and still I feel it just might be a misunderstanding. Please help.

I am very tired & very, very pissed off with T-mobile , no contract, pre-paid service; which never provided me properly with activate service. No call severl wks ago to make sure phone was off; since I never received phone calls or was never able to send call out!!! The phone never worked; so I’m done with it; but I am not!!! I repeat I’m not or never will someone service for not delivering me service!!!!! I’m am tired of receiving these Bogus-ass statement ssaying I owe them!!! No T-mobile owes me an apology & fucking with me & my life….I have been thur alot in this past year(2012)!!! And right now; you really don’t want fuck with me!!!

I had just written to you the contract review dept. 2 weeks ago in reference to the sales person who lied to me about being able to purchase phone without being committed to a contract, I,ve been with t- mobile for quite sometime and even without a contract i was consistent in paying my bill, now i like to continue doing business with you, providing you disregard this manipulative way of getting me into a contract, teo things can happen, i can hire an attorney to fight the battle, i can in form the fcc, are i have no problem not paying you and letting you cut me off and t- mobile not receive any monies from me I,m not worried about you reporting me to the credit bureau and i will get on line with all the other people who complaining and start a boycott just like the lady did with bank of america going up on fees, so please lets keep things in good standing. thanking you in advance mr calvin lamely 973 342 4269.

I am filing a complaint on my Son’s behalf. He has received a bill for service that was not used. The phone had not been in use and he is receiving a bill for service. He has been incarcerated for over 2 months and can not call T-Mobile to get this resolved. I called and asked them to give me a reason why they keep sending a bill when he has no contract. The “Customer Care” associates say they can’t help.
I understand the privacy of an account, but this bill is false. no service was provided during the time they are billing for.
I will never use T-Mobile and I will tell everyone I assocaite with that the “Customer Care” is awfull!

On December on or about the 17th of these year 2012, T-mobile had text me regarding my minutes that they were over the limit and they had suggested that I increase to a higher plan because of the overage cost on my account. I went to my account on my phone to agree for more minutes to be added to my account, I did not see where it said that my contract for T-mobile would be extended for two more years I didnt know until Friday December 21st when I call to see when my contract was up thats when they told me that it was extended. This was done without my knowledge and if you have to put the plan back where it was and I want my contract cancelled. There has been discrepancy on my account with employee’s of T-mobile my daughter’s phone does not work too accuracy my phone does not work to it’s full capacity when I called last week they told me I needed an antenna but sadly they said that I had the wrong plan. I live in Sedona, Az. There has been so much running around with my account that it doesn’t make sense to me anymore. I want this contract terminated.
Thank You

I am really upset behind the purchase(1/28/12) of this 4g hotspot !!! I went to a t-mobile booth at Cary Towncenter in Cary N.C. The salesperson was Dustin Adams and his supervisor was Brandon Mclamb. My 1st complaint is that I went to pay my t-mobile bill(125.40). I gave Dustin 140.00 to put on my bill and that amount wasn’t applied. The 125.40 was !! So where is the rest of my money ??!!

My second complaint is that they asked me if I had internet service. I told them I did with an outside company and they told me about the 4g hotspot that I can pay for when I pay my cell phone bill. I got the hotspot home and it didn’t work. Dustin called me and said the sims card he put in it was from his reserve and he’d send me another card in mail in 2 days. 2 days turned into 3weeks.

NEVER GOT CARD!! I eventually went fayetteville and they gave me a sims card. I got home tried it and IT WAS HORRIBLE !! It took the web page about 10-15mins to boot up, the entire page didn’t show and I kept losing a signal! I called t-mobile customer service 3/22/12 and spoke to mike and mark and they told me where I live I don’t have a good signal. I have 1 tower a mile from me and another 1 about 4 miles from me.

Neither 1 of them is close enough to give me a good signal.I asked could i send back the hotspot and they told me no I would get charged a $200 early termination fee !! IT DOESN”T WORK IN MY AREA!! so why should I be charged ? Mark said they should have checked my area 1st. Now I’m being charged $57.98/mnth for something that I cannot use !! I would really like to get out of this hotspot and get my $15 credited from the amount not being applied to my phone bill.

Oh by the way I went back to Cary to complain to Dustin/Brandon and was told that the booth is NO LONGER THERE. HHHMMM was told there were many complaints about them !! I am seriously thinking about leaving t-mobile all together because right now I am a VERY dissatisfied customer !!

To Whom It May Concern at T-Mobile complaints and customer service: On November 27th, 2010 we made the grave error of entering into a contractual agreement with your company for the purchase of four phones and two broadband devices. One of the phones was to be used in Florida, one at a Christian mission in a rural area in Kansas and the other two in the Kansas City area. We went to great length to insure that each phone would work in the area where intended. We were advised by your sales associate that the phone to be used at the mission in rural Kansas would be roaming the majority of the time but that would not be a problem.

We were further advised that the broadband device to be used at the mission would work in that area as well. Subsequently one year later you in your convoluted sense of fairness and loose interpretation of what constitutes a contractual agreement notified us that the phone in the rural area was being canceled due to excessive roaming despite what we were initially told by your sales associate. The broadband device never did work at the mission.

We early on terminated the devise at the mission and paid your termination fee while then learning in the process that T-Mobile was a company completely devoid of any sense or idea of what constitutes business ethics. Thence we had no device at the mission and had to go looking for another phone to be used at the mission. We contacted your people and asked to modify our family plan to a plan with less minutes because we were then short one phone and had a decreased need for minutes. We were told by your representative that we would have to extend our plan two years to change the plan. In realty any extension of service with your company is not even a consideration.

The other broadband device never has worked. The intended use was in the Kansas City area. I paid the monthly fee for the device and made repeated attempts with your service representatives to make the device work. All of my attempts were to no avail. Your people tried on numerous occasions to make the device work going so far as to send out a new sim card. That did not work either. They finally gave up with no further answers. I then finally got with someone in your employee who after hearing the saga agreed to waive the early termination fee on a device that never did work. At my next billing and once again despite what I was told the charge for the early termination fee was included.

Once again I called in and after working my way through your maze of phone blocking tactics found another one of your representatives who told me she did find a record of the agreement to wave the fee and that the fee would be taken off the bill. Guess what? Next bill the fee is still there and you in the process shut off our phones. I called in again, worked my way through the maze, get another one of you representatives and was told that no record exists of any agreement to wave the fee.

This may come as a complete surprise to you but people base decisions upon what they are told when they enter into contractual agreements with companies be they written or verbal. A fiduciary relationship is assumed and decisions are based upon that relationship from a position of assumed trust and good faith. You have broken two contractual agreements both verbal but none the less binding.

At this point I will expect you to honor the verbal agreement made by one of your employees to wave the fee on the aforementioned device. I would then ask to be released from my association with your company on all devices in question with no recourse or further obligation of any kind. T-Mobile omits a stench that I can no longer tolerate.

I went to a t-mobile store for help with my phone bill, hopefully a contract review i couldnt get on t-mobile.com. the sales rep said i can help. i do not use a lot of minutes so i decided to get shared minutes with my grandchild who would not be using a lot of minutes either.

I thought i was getting a great deal. until i saw my bill being almost fifty dollars over budget. the rep stated to me one thousand shared minutes. however it is not shared anything.it is five hundred minutes each. i do not mind paying my bill but be honest to your valued customers i made several phone calls regarding this matter none of which t-mobile can help. i was hung up on by a loyalty so-called rep, so i tried again a contract review on t-mobile.com.

i am a very disappointed customer.please be very careful with these reps they say one quote but when contract is done it means something different I purchased two phones from you and bought two twenty-five dollar cards, one for each phone. My phone was activated but my fathers was not.

They couldn’t get my fathers number to work. He wanted to keep his old number as it was the only one he ever had. In the process of all this his number was lost and his phone was never activated. Now I’ve gotten a bill from you for my fathers phone and he has never used the phone at all and his old phone number has been lost. Please straighten this mess out.

my name is lam vu. i have been with tmobile a long time. they mess up my contract so i went without contract for over a year. on monday oct 17 2011, i call in wanted to let them know i want to end my service with them on oct 28 2011 because that is my last day of the monthly service. i talk to cherish ,id #54328 . she told me she going to give me the great deal with the monthly contract and the phone . we were chosing the phone and she advise me that if i want to we can go ahead sign the contract over the phone and i can decide on the phone if i wanted to. i went to the auto system to sign the contract and she said to call me back at 10 pm central time on tuesday oct 18 2011.

we agree on that but she didn’t call me back. i waited untill friday oct 21 2011.and call customer service they talk to me but they don’t give me the same deal that cherish gave me . i told them to let me talk to cherish but they say they can’t but they will sent her email letting her know that she need to call me back within 72 hours from friday. today is 25 october i call them asking to speak to cherish but again i got someone else. they don’t honor the deal that support to me at the time that i sign the contract. i told them that if the reason that make me sign the contract is because cherish gave me the great deal.

now the deal wasn’t honor and i wanted to terminate my service because they been wasting my time and energy. they said i had to paid the early tremination fee because i want to cancel early. i keep tell them that if it wasn’t the deal she gave to me that day i wouldn’t sign the contract. why should i need the company that alway messing up like that. i don’t know who going to read this but i will talk to my lawyer and deal with this.

I was looking forward to being a T-mobile customer until I realized how awful their company was. I ordered a cell phone and an $80 a month flex pay plan. After not being able to receive the phone I canceled the plan within the buyers remorse period. As their contract states a refund is issued for customer that fall under buyers remorse. I was hoping to receive my full $80 refund considering I never received the phone and was never able to even use the service…. Unfortunately I got a $4.00 check in the mail. I talked to probably 7 people who sounded like they were from India and was basically told by all of them I got screwed out of my money.

Their “system” only allows for a $4 refund. T-Mobile should check into how unfair their system is considering money is being stolen from their own customers.

I was on automatic payment plan w metro pcs. I tried to increase service by calling and they did not believe it was me so I had to physically go into a store. I was able to increase the plan and allegedly the extra $10 missed the billing date of automatic payment so they shut off my phone service due to their own billing error. I called and tried to remedy the situation but all they would do is waive a lousy $3.00 sevice fee for paying online even though they had cut off my phone service due to no fault of my own.

I asked to speak to a supervisor and was put on hold for 24 minutes. so apparently there was no supervisor available to address any customer problems in all that time. I wasted $125.00 on a phone because I will not use their service. I texted them and mailed in a letter. no response to either. No customer service. They screw up and then refuse to fix it. Unbelievable. Worst customer service experience of my life. Do NOT use metro pcs. all they want to do is sell the phones and service but will not help you if they screw up. You may as well not exist. I hope they go out of business.

I just spent 67 minutes my entire lunch hour and then some speaking to three different CSA in a foreign country with limited english and the understanding of english. First agent the ususal take out the battery remove the sim card. Ok still nothing then had me clear cache cookies and history. Still nothing so I am transferred to so called higher technology. Now common sense would tell you if this call is escalated the previous agent went threw the basics for trouble shooting. No here we go again but this one hung up on me. I was calling from a friends phone because I know the drill all to well.

They ask you to call from a phone other than your so they can trouble shoot. I called back and all I wanted to do was file a formal complaint. Again a non speaking english agent and you can tell they must have a script in front of them as they can’t deviate and they say the same thing over and over. I told the agent I didnt want her help I was on my own phone now I wanted to file a formal complaint and she continued to try and assist me with the problem I called for. Finally after the fourth time of telling her I didnt want to pursue the problem I will go to a store. All I wanted from her was to speak to someone of upper management to file a complaint.

She ask to put me on hold and said she be right back. This is another one of there tricks they do this so you will just hang up because they are like “moonies” they can’t comprehend and they continue to ask the same thing or say the same thing over and over …..so sorry I left Sprint.

I am very angry and very upset at T mobile, I can’t believe how incompetent its employees are and how bad the service is. I just joined T mobile and signed up for 2 years. I switched from Verizon. I added 2 lines for my kids. One of them had her own account with T mobile. She is a student and I wanted to help her so I decided to add her with me so I can pay the bill. We received the 3 phones, I had explained to the sales person what I was going to do, switch from Verison and add 2 lines. No problem, we can do that. Anyway, we call the customer service and ask to transfer the old numbers. My son and I (both were with Verizon), did get our old numbers.

To switch My daughter’s number was a nightmare. After talking to so many people, including supervisors, and being switched over so many times, over a period of 4 days, that is calling every day, we were told that we need to cancel the old number so they transfer it, which we did, today we find out they gave the number to someone else. And, there is nothing they can do. It’s too late. Sorry … Needless to say how upset my daughter is. I can’t believe that in the 21st century, a big company like T mobile, can not switch a number. A company that wants to compete and claims they are the largest and the best network in the world.

In the world. Of course, they pinned the blame on me and my daughter. I don’t know why, we just made the request. What pisses me most is that they don’t recognize they made a mistake. When I told them they screwed up, they said ‘no we didn’t, you did !’. I wish them the worst.

The prepaid service sucks. It’s not the same coverage , towers , app market. It does not work like regular t-mobile services. There’s restrictions on the places u can and can not go as far as the internet. When u pay the same prices as monthly customers.With the worst service. The reason why i went with the service is because i use to have the service with my father. Now that I’m with age i decided to get service, but since i had no credit i got prepaid service.The guy gave me a paper with my number and said i was done. No refunds ! What? If i decided to turn my phone off . It takes five minutes to make any calls or text message . No service , not even 911! The worst Service u could have!

I should have went with cricket or metro pcs!Unlimited everything. who ever heard of a data plan that says unlimited but doesn’t really mean it .

I recently ordered 3 new lines of service with a sales rep. order was process and shipped on the day of delivery order was recalled, call tmobile so they said go to a local store to verify myself and they should honor the agreement for the mytouch 4g which was free. Got to the store did as they asked but could not get the phones that were ordered, called the headquarters and they sent me back to the store to get the phones and again no phone, so i have 3 lines of service with no phones. I have called and called but no one wants to honor the agreement. I been with tmobile for over 6 years now. think its time to say good bye you are the weakest link.

I got an Sony Eriksson Equinox after being with TMobile 7 years. They told me 3 x to buy the wrong memory card. It would not snap in so I took it to a cellurar company because the TMobile store is an hour drive on the freeway. They couldn’t make it stay in either. So they sent me another phone and it did not work on it either. Then they figure out it is the wrong card. I had bought it on Amazon because theirs is $50.00. Now I can’t get my money back and I have to buy theirs for $50.00. As soon as I began using the phone it had software problems.

I had it less than a month so they wanted me to take a reconditioned one and I refused. I get their bill and now I am signed up for GPS and something else that I nev er signed up for. I cut off their internet. 6 month went by and I called 611 their customer service number and would have to wait up to 2 hours on hold and talke to TMobile from some other country. I only use my cell phone. One day my battery went dead after 2 hours on hold and I used their internet phone to call 611 and got through in five minutes. It was the cell phone all along.

Now I get another equinox and it does the same thing only worse. Two phones can’t do this so they check their end, nothing wrong, and twenty calls later it might be the newer sim cards. Meanwhile while I am calling them they try to sell me things includind extending my contract. The sim card is not here yet. I can’t wait to see if this fixes it because we ran out of options and I refuse a different phone that would extend my contract and make me buy more music and another memory card. I hate them.

Yesterday i whent to a metro pcs store isaw a ad d which has apicture of three diferent android phones. It says . Get an android for $49 when you add aline to your family plan. I WHENT to the metro pcs store employee an i asked her if i could ad two lines that i liked the samsum galaxy indulge which is on the add. She scream are you crazy if we would have those phone at 49 dont you think we would have the store full of people buying them .she said you can buy only the one which is onthe middle not the other two. Iwas so emberase people that were in the metro pcs store just looked at me an ifeel.im so upset at her way of treating me an.

at the same time i feel this is a false ad because i even asked my whole family to read what is says an we al agree that for our understanding is very especific that if i add two more line i can get the phone i like which is in the add .or this ad is a false advertisement an imnot the one who is wrong can any body explain that add

For many years I was a customer of t-mobile until I relocated abroad in January of 2011. My t-mobile number was for many years. Several days before leaving, I called t-mobile to cancel my account and my bank draft order which I was told they did on January 21, 2011. On April 22, 2011, however t-mobile debited my bank account for $16.55 even though my account was cancelled and the phone never used since. I called t-mobile customer service the following week but the representative told me the charges were valid.

I spoke with her supervisor, a lady named Carla who investigated and found that indeed the charge should never have been made and that whe would have the charges reversed, take steps to assure my former account will not be again charged and make sure that the standing debit order is removed from their files. Further Carla assured me that she would contact me within 2 hours to confirm the above was done. I gave her both my phone numbers (home and cell) and my email address.

I have never been contacted by t-mobile, the charges have not been reversed and I fear that I will be charged again in the future.

Thank you,

When getting my phone with tmobile i informed them that all i needed was phone and text. I made this very clear to them. how ever i have been receiving bills for 60 and 70 dollars more than wht the bill should be. Everytime i speak with a rep i’m told different information. I’m very dis pleased with the service, every month i have to contact them about my bill, and they just keep you on hold and when i ask to speak with a tmobile manager or supervisor. The phone gets disconnected or hinged up on. I’m contacting the better bussines bureau and i’m going to contact everyone i could to get these charges reversed.

Be aware of metro pcs stores return policy! They will make it impossible for you to renturn anything! and then try to tie you up to their horrible service. On March 30, 2011 shortly before the store time to close, at 7.58 PM, I purchased a new phone, its accessories, pre-paid a month of usage and switched my phone line from ATT to MetroPCS. Soon after I arrived home and tested the phone I realized that I made a mistake. As the store was already closed I had to wait till it would open on the next day.

In the morning of March 31, 2011, I went back to the store where I purchased the phone and explained to the same customer service person that sold me the phone that I am a realtor and my phone is my main tool of work. The phone that I purchased did not fit my necessities and I was also having problems with the service, not receiving text messages from Clients and getting my phone calls dropped.

She said that the service would soon improve and that I should keep the phone for a while and that I would eventually get used to it. I asked her to then exchange the phone for a blackberry, which was what I originally had with ATT and was ideal for my business. She refused to exchange the phones and said that she could not take a refund either and showed me her return policy, which was not disclosed to me before or during the purchase. On it says that you may return the phone within 7 days of original activation date and must contain less than 60 minutes of airtime usage on call timer. She said my phone had 60 minutes and 15 seconds of airtime.

Unfortunately I didn’t know about their return policy prior to the purchase. If I did, I would have never tried a new phone and service provider for my business knowing that I would be stuck to it. I asked to speak with a manager and she declined to give me his/her name or contact information. I called the 1888 8METRO8 number from the store hoping for a solution. They told me to go to their store Corporate. The closest one was 40 minutes away in Lake Worth.

Immediately after speaking with the customer service person I turned off my phone (afraid to add any more seconds of airtime and be denied a refund/return and with that lost several business calls). In fact, I was already missing business calls and texts even before knowing that I could not use the phone.

At the Lake Worth corporate store, after 1 hour in line waiting and without using the phone, the service person told me that they could not help me as I had purchased the phone from another store and that if I had purchased it from them, they would be glad to give me a refund.

I then drove home to look for the owners of record of the store to try to locate them and speak with them. All numbers that I tried were either disconnected or did not work. I found their Corporate history and another store they owned also in Delray. Called the store asking for the manager several times and he never returned my call. I drove to the store, and they said the manager was not there and that they could not help me and that I would not be able to return the phone.

After all the driving around, frustration and lost businesses and working hours, I decided that I could no longer keep the phone off, as I had to answer my business calls. I kept trying to reach the store manager for another day without success and finally gave up. I went back to an Att store and changed my phone line back to them. ATT Service is more than double the price, but works and I deeply regret having tried to switch.

I then put all the Metro PCS merchandise back in its original boxes and priority mailed it to the store, attention to the owner of record, with insurance and signature delivery, along with copies of the receipt and with a note asking them to immediately refund the full amount of the purchase on my debit card used with the original purchase. Days after I received the signature receipt in the mail dated as received on April 04, 2011.

As they accepted the phone back, I hoped to receive my refund. I waited for days for it to post, but realized that even though they accepted the phone in the mail, they never refunded my money nor contacted me to have the issue resolved. They simply took the phone back and kept my money.

On April 08, 2011 I went to my bank and filed a dispute. However, my bank said that the merchant declined to credit my money back and that I would have to resolve the issue directly with the merchant or file a law suit. To file a law suit it is going to cost me at least another $ 190.00 plus all the time and aggravation.

I spent several hours on the phone with Tech Support after receiving a replacement BB 9700. The issues were unable to access email set up and four T-Mobile web browsers. That was the second time after I was told to put a new sim card in. The issued seemed to be resolved. Once I had time to sit and set the phone up, the browser isn’t responding as it normally does and the cursor freezes. I’m sorry to say that the last 3 days of having major software issues starting on Sunday with a white screen, and spending much needed time on my job as a Firefighter, I have spent it on the phone.

I was going to report the problems with this phone in the morning. I also inquired about getting away from BB and going to another T-Mobile phone. It was not until today that after 14 months with T-Mobile that I am not eligible for an upgrade. This being due to not being notified that I had to be on a $99.00 monthly plan. I had been on the $79.00 monthly plan and recently dropped it to 500 min and unlimited data etc, due to the phone having gen issues on a reg basis. I can not spend time constantly trouble shooting what was a new phone.

I’m disappointed after being with you since Sept of 2009, that I have basically been paying on BB’s that have had many software issues and replaced that the time with a two year contract is useless! I was never told until today that I had to be on a 99.00 plan and have decided to look into another company. A two year contract with Sprint regardless of the plan gives me the ability to upgrade due to the amt of time if I had been with them.

I’m sure no one cares, but your sales people and customer service from T-Mobile should notify you if you call about your plan that your not eligible for anything because you were only paying 79.00 a month and I was not notified until today that my state employee discount is not effective unless I have a 99.00 monthly plan. I now regret going to t- mobile knowing now that the year and six months with you was useless!!

ATT, Sprint, and Verizon are the big dogs in the cell phone world. You would be better off with one of them. T-Mobile is really second rate. I had T-Mobile for 2 years and they pretty much are a mom-and-pop cell phone provider. Their coverage, phones, and customer service are really second rate. However, that’s just my opinion!

I just called TMobile to change my EasyPay option to a different bank. I give them my cell # and last 4 of my SS# and David C says he can’t help me because I’m giving the wrong information. He says my phone number is right, and my name is connected to that phone number in the billing, yet he accuses me of giving the wrong social security number. How can I give a wrong SS#? It’s my SS# and I know what it is! If anyone is incorrect, TMobile is incorrect when they entered my number!

He refused to help me, instead he told me to go into a TMobile store. How inconvenient that is for me to travel 20 miles roundtrip to the nearest store just to do them a favor by giving them my new EasyPay information! Thing is, I’ve called Customer Service before and have had no issue being helped before when giving my phone number and last 4 digits of my SS# ??
