    Once again, I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to Matt for his excellent, professional service. This has increased my trust in T-Mobile, as I am a recent customer. Yes, initially I encountered some unprecedented technical problems, and I was unable to use my phone for more than a month. I have not the slightest doubt about the professional skills and very friendly attitude of T-Mobile’s technical support staff both in Arizona and in Colorado during my trip at that time...

    However, sometimes, in order to get to the root of a problem, professional curiosity and, most importantly, a sincere desire to help are necessary. That is what ignites the intuitive spark and leads to the sudden solution of a problem that had previously raised so many questions. That is exactly what happened. I am very grateful to Matt for such intelligence, diligence, and dedication to his work, thanks to which my iPhone started working again.

    I have been a T-Mobile customer for more than a decade with three lines, and I have always been very happy with their service and network. Recently, my plan was no longer compatible with 5G, so I needed to upgrade. The representative who assisted me was very efficient and helped me find an affordable and convenient monthly plan that worked well for me. Later, I experienced a small issue regarding a promotion. I called customer service several times, and Matthew was very helpful, although the issue still wasn’t resolved.

    Then I had the opportunity to speak with Ms. Wendy, and she was absolutely awesome. She was extremely professional, patient, and helpful. She took the time to fully understand my problem, promised to call me back—and, most importantly, she kept her promise and resolved the issue. I truly appreciate your help, Ms. Wendy. I’m very glad that T-Mobile has employees like you who genuinely care about their customers and follow through until the problem is solved. Thank you again, Wendy, for your outstanding service. You are a great example of what excellent customer service should be!

      I have nothing but great things to say about employee Jay ID #**. I have been trying to resolve this issue for a month, but he went above and beyond to help me. He had patience and understood my frustration. He was kind and attentive and asked all the right questions. I'm still on the phone on hold as I write this because he is going that extra mile to solve my issue and he is getting it done. It's been a while since I have had excellent 5 ⭐ customer service assistance like this. He deserves a promotion. If all the customer service agents were like him, we really would live in a better world. Hands down the best. Thank you Jay!!!! I pray you are blessed with all the good in this world in abundance.

      To Management: I can't say enough good things about Jeff ** at the T-Mobile store in Middletown Commons. Today, after my phone was either lost or stolen, I was stressed and expecting the process to be a nightmare. Jeff immediately put me at ease. He was incredibly professional, friendly, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the entire experience. He helped me set up a new phone and transferred my existing phone number, which meant I didn't have to worry about changing my number or updating all of my accounts and contacts. He took care of everything and made what could have been a very frustrating day completely manageable.

      Jeff is a perfect example of what outstanding customer service should look like. He genuinely cares about his customers, explains everything clearly, and goes the extra mile to make sure you're taken care of. It's rare to find someone this dedicated and helpful. I will be telling my friends and acquaintances, if you need assistance with anything T-Mobile related, I highly recommend asking for Jeff. He turned a stressful situation into a smooth and positive experience. Thank you, Jeff, for your exceptional service! A VERY satisfied customer!

      I and my family have been with Sprint (bought by T-Mobile) since 1998. I am a 60 something year old who has somewhat difficulty with today's technology. I needed a new cell phone but have waited almost too long to pursue this purchase. Two days ago, I walked into the T-Mobile office located on Gallatin Pike in Gallatin, TN. There were 2 very nice employees there, but CiCi stood out. I explained to CiCi my lack of being a tech savvy person. CiCi stepped up and talked to me (not over my head) and explained to me the information I needed to hear in a very sweet professional manner. She truly earned 10 stars for her caring nature.

      I did not once feel less of a person while I was changing out my phone. Not only did she make this transaction smoother, but she also noticed my plan was an outdated plan and talked me through changes that needed to be made inevitably saving me a good bit on my monthly bill. Not only did she help with my phone and billing, but she also introduced another product T-Mobile has and explained exactly just what I needed to know to make future changes. I have worked in corporate since I was 18 years old and I understand customer service completely. I have been on both sides of good/bad customer service. CiCi really made my experience VERY pleasant, and I just wanted to say THANK YOU to her!!! Gallatin, TN T-Mobile, please share this with your employee, CiCi!!! THANK YOU CiCi.

      I don't know what happened over the past year, but the customer service has taken a massive nosedive. I contacted T-Mobile to have lines cancelled, which went smoothly. One month of no charges for those lines, and then another month and the charges were back. When I contacted T-Mobile, they told me they never received confirmation for the lines to be cancelled. When I showed them the bill, they said it was their error and that I should really owe them for the previous month. After paying over 300 dollars in extra charges, I was told the lines were cancelled. The person who handled the call was smug, saying that it was my fault for not expecting the charges.

      And then one more month later, another extra 150 dollars in charges were made. When I asked what was going on, the person on the line said that the previous person added a "ghost line" for no device. When I asked to be reimbursed, the agent asked me for a screenshot of a confirmation. Since it was a call, I had no screenshot. That agent then told me that all charges were valid and that she would process a cancellation. Instead, she hung up and nothing happened. This place is atrocious. You're better off using smoke signals to send messages than use T-Mobile. Or just set your money on fire instead. Better than having no service and being charged hundreds of dollars.

      We had our four phone lines with T-Mobile since 2019. The billing cycle ran, for example, from July 7 to August 6 of the following month, in advance, according to what they state on their bill. We decided to switch carriers on August 9 and completed the transfer of the lines on August 12. If we’re paying in advance, I think I should only have to pay for the days from August 6 to August 12. But to my surprise, today I received a very threatening letter saying we owe $204 and that if we don’t pay, they’ll send us to collections. I called the company to try to talk to them—I’m willing to pay for the days we used (6 days) but not for the entire month; they should credit us for the remaining unused days, since the service was canceled.

      I spoke with a supervisor named Andrés—the service was terrible—and I even felt bad about the way he told me that even though I had closed the account, I still had to pay for the entire month because no one had told me to switch companies before the end of the billing cycle. I think I’m going to find a lawyer because I feel scammed and taken advantage of—as if I can’t decide when to close an account. They’re stealing money from us consumers. In fact, they had already raised the price, which is why I decided to switch providers, and now they want me to pay for a service they didn’t provide. The supervisor asked me if I had used up my monthly allowance in just 6 days, even though I had an unlimited plan.

      I have been a T-Mobile Customer since I got my first BlackBerry phone when they came out years back. I stuck with them for decades because, at the time, they truly were an amazing company. But something happened along the way, and customers, including myself, began being overcharged, as well as customer service going downhill, causing me to switch companies.

      Most recently, in July 2026, I switched back to T-Mobile after being dissatisfied with too many outages from my previous servicer, so I figured I'd give them another chance. I was with T-Mobile for just over a month, and oh my Lord! Bear with me for a moment while I explain how this fiasco became an enormous drain on my time.

      1. Getting through to T-Mobile on the phone is a nightmare! There are literally 30-minute to one-hour-long hold times every time you call for anything. There is also a risk that you may get cut off after being on hold forever. But to be fair, there is a callback option if you aren't making back-to-back phone calls at the time. During the month of July, I literally had to call 27 times and spent 7 hours, 53 minutes, 51 seconds on the phone with T-Mobile just trying to get help with my service.

      2. If you sign up on the last day of the billing period, they will charge you for the entire prior billing period without notifying you first, even if you don't have the equipment to access their services yet. According to T-Mobile's own billing policy, it states, "Day 1 — Start of your monthly billing period. If you are new to T-Mobile, this is the day you joined or the date your equipment shipped." I am disputing the charges.

      3. Even after spending hours on hold and on the phone with T-Mobile customer service, if you finally get through and cancel on the first day of the billing cycle, they will again charge you for the entire period. Also, if you don't return the equipment on time, they charge you about 250.00 even if you are physically unable to return it on time due to a documented disability.

      Shipping fees for the equipment are also on your dime. Again, even if you are disabled and unable to drop off the equipment yourself. (Meanwhile, other servicers send labels, a box, and a shipper to your door to pick it up.) I believe this is a violation of 28 C.F.R. § 36.302. which states the following: "A business covered by Title III must make reasonable modifications to its policies, practices, or procedures when necessary to provide its services to a person with a disability, unless the business can demonstrate that the modification would fundamentally alter what it provides."

      4. After realizing that I was being overcharged, I removed my bank information from the T-Mobile website; however, they continued to charge my bank account. I then called my bank and requested that any further debits initiated by T-Mobile not be paid. I don't know what has happened to T-Mobile, and I am truly sad to see them go downhill like this after being a loyal customer for so long, but buyer beware.

      0 Satisfied with T-Mobile. I was holding on the phone at 611 for a Supervisor and eventually disconnected from the call after a lengthy wait. I've been waiting 2 weeks talking numerous times to T-Mobile representatives on the phone for a Full Refund from T-Mobile after going into Store in Mauldin SC to purchase a phone. The transaction withdrew (debited) the funds in the amount of 230.20 from my checking account after trying to process the transaction twice, but the saleslady, Cassidy at the store, said either transaction didn't process on her end.

      I eventually got refunded one transaction in the amount of 115.10 a week and a half several days later, but I'm still waiting on my additional refund of 115.20 that was debited. I've called numerous times to straighten this matter but haven't received my full refund yet. The Account is in my husband's name. Sadly, I was inconvenienced even more because Cassidy said that she had no more phones in stock and had to put a 24-hour hold on the phone I was trying to purchase. I was forced to have to go to two other store locations to find and purchase a new phone, my husband decided to use his debit card to purchase my new phone. I would definitely move to another phone company after this experience and hope my husband thinks about us changing phone companies at this point. The phone customer service and in-store experience is a 0 Rating.

      SCAM ARTISTS, BAIT AND SWITCH, CUSTOMERS BE VERY AWARE! I had to give it 1 star just to post. I've been a customer for many many years. My Galaxy A32 phone became incompatible with T-Mobile service. I came into this store to get an upgrade, and to get a cheaper plan, or move to another provider, because the $55 Magenta and $40 tax incl wifi price went up. The salesman said that the only way to get a phone would be the Essentials 55 2 at $60, and he can drop my wifi to $35 now tax and fees are included, so bill is now $110.

      After reviewing my new bill, I have 2 phone lines, 1 line not being used. And $899.99 is billed to my account for a new phone that gets $37.50 credited a month over a 2 yr period. So I went from a $95 bill to $110, also billed for the $900 phone. After a month, the bill was not $95 as agreed to. The salesman and manager insisted the account needed to adjust, never happened. Now they refuse to accept the phone as a return, when confronted, they flat-out lied. I informed them at the beginning that I can go to another phone service that has better or similar plans. They said they can do better; it wasn't. Very Disappointed.

      This company will waste your time and money. Tell me why I have paid for insurance for over 10 years with this company from Sprint to Trashmobile and I lose my phone for the first time...$224 for a replacement iphone13...ok. Next, I have to file my own claim....weird. Ok next, they are asking for the type of phone, storage, all this detailed information. Well how is it that the phone showing on my TMobile account is different than the actual phone that I have. So every time I file the claim its getting denied even though I have coverage. On top of that, the denial is tell me I don't have coverage, not that I am filing it wrong.

      This company sucks, in person and over the phone. I am just being honest, their employees care about adding lines and getting you to "better aka more costly" plans so they can get commission. The company as a whole think they are saving money but, watch them lose customers. Just wait because I am done with my contract :) Won't be paying a penny extra to start my new life with a peaceful carrier whose message and word of being upfront is more than just words.

      My workplace covers my phone bill. After a new CFO took over a mistake was made and they had back-charging my phone bill payments in error. After I brought it to their attention, they immediately worked to reverse the back charge. After working with our card company, they told me that they had been instructed to have me contact T-Mobile to have a hold place on my account to avoid my losing service due to the back-charge issue.

      I called T-Mobile for help and got Daniel on the phone. The man had his mic in his mouth the ENTIRE time and all you could hear was him heavily breathing into your ear. It was disgusting. Moreover, he did not understand a word I was telling him, and when trying to assist, he was only capable of reading the screen in front of him. It was excruciatingly clear he did not understand what he was reading. I asked to be placed in touch with a supervisor, tell him this was because I didn't think he understood what I was saying or knew how to help. I told him I'd rather have someone that actually knew what they were doing. He talked over me indicating that he was just "reading the policy" and I demanded a supervisor and he kept on with "the policy" so told him to take the mic out of his mouth and hung up as it was clear he was not going to get me a supervisor.

      I attempted to then get assistance via the app instead and received the same, non-helpful responses about "policy" (minus the mouth breathing) and they would not respond to my requests for a supervisor to call me either. I never spoke with a supervisor. I never got help. I spoke with my workplace and we have now paid them twice totaling over $1280. T-Mobile is an absolutely awful company and I recommend any other phone company under the sun so long as it is not T-Mobile or any company associated with T-Mobile (Deutsche Telekom, Metro by T-Mobile, Mint Mobile, Ultra Mobile, Sprint, or UScellular). Terrible customer service. Agents that don't know what they are reading. No supervisors to be found. Absolutely unhelpful.

      The government department has been extremely difficult to work with. They do not answer phone calls, ignore emails, and frequently fail to activate new devices. I have spent countless hours trying to get phones activated and determine where errors have occurred. Orders are repeatedly cancelled without explanation, and representatives often do not respond to follow‑up messages. On several occasions, staff were promised free phone upgrades, only for those commitments to be walked back weeks later with no clear justification.

      The issues appear to be widespread throughout the organization, including corporate support. Calls and emails go unanswered, and customers are often disconnected when attempting to reach assistance. Promises are made to resolve concerns, only to be withdrawn weeks later, creating an ongoing cycle of frustration and delays. The justification consistently given is that the company has been affected by a merger. However, these problems have persisted for years, suggesting a much larger and long‑standing issue with customer service and internal coordination.

      If you can avoid T-Mobile, avoid them. My experience has been extremely frustrating and feels very misleading. I was promised a monthly bill of around $98, but after signing up, my bill ended up being approximately $156 per month. The terms and actual costs were not clearly explained to me before I agreed to the service.

      The trade-in experience was even worse. I was told I would receive up to $1,000 for my phone, but I ultimately received only $120, and I was not given a clear opportunity to agree to that valuation before the phone was taken. Had I known I would receive only $120, I would have kept my phone and not traded it in. I feel that the sales process was misleading, and once I signed up and they had my business, the deal turned out to be very different from what was promised. I would strongly recommend carefully reviewing every detail of the offer and getting everything in writing before signing up.

      T‑Mobile has managed to destroy 20+ years of loyalty in a single day. My brand‑new phone — barely two weeks old — has been trapped in an endless update loop, shutting down every 10–30 minutes and restarting the same update over and over. Everything worked perfectly until today, and now the device is basically unusable.

      The real failure, though, was customer support. I scheduled a callback with IT an hour out. During that hour, my phone restarted repeatedly, leaving me unable to respond to my wife while she was scrambling to find insulin because CVS was sold out and “couldn’t do anything.” Every time I checked my messages, the phone was off again, stuck in its update cycle.

      Then the callback finally came through — two rings, I answered immediately, and the call disconnected. Two rings. After nearly an hour of waiting. When I called back, they had already canceled my callback and dumped me into hold music for 25 minutes (and counting). After two decades with T‑Mobile, this is the worst service I’ve ever experienced. There’s a 95% chance my account ends this week. What an absolute joke.

      This is a compliance, privacy, security and operational issue T-Mobile committed. I canceled my service on 08/11/26. I ported my number to my new carrier and all was ok until Aug 30th when T-mobile "restored" then "suspended" my line without cause or permission, leaving me stranded internationally without the ability to use my phone. Due to me not being a customer, I am blocked from using T-Life for support and the other option is to dial in...on a phone that won't work because T-mobile reactivated then cancelled my ability to reach them. I am a 14 hour flight from the US. THIS IS HORRIBLE. Time to contact the FCC and also file complaints with other government agencies. If I can't reach T-Mobile online, they leave me no choice but to go online and complain EVERYWHERE. Be aware that you can cancel and transfer your lien to a competitor then reactivate your line/services without you knowing.

      15 years I have been with T-Mobile and they have violated my trust. Recently they eliminated my plan and raised by Bill by $12 a month to over $100 for two lines. I switched to Mint mobile for $30 a month for the first year. T-Mobile cancelled my account and shut off my automatic pay so the last $18 for the partial month did not get paid. Nothing works as far as communicating with them. Now they have added an additional $10 late fee. I called in on the 800 number and held for 45 minutes to find out there is nothing that can be done and I need to go to a retail store to pay the bill if I don't want to mail in a check and there is no vehicle to remove the late charge.

      ⭐ 1/5 — The worst customer service experience I have ever had. I’ve had multiple completely different issues with T-Mobile, and almost every single one has followed the exact same frustrating pattern. I call, spend a huge amount of time explaining the issue, get told it has been resolved, and later discover that the fix either wasn’t completed, wasn’t properly documented, or didn’t actually solve the problem. Then I have to call again, explain everything again, wait again, and go through the entire process from the beginning because the next representative seems to have little or no useful record of what happened before. And this has happened across multiple unrelated issues.

      I’m literally on the phone with T-Mobile again as I’m writing this review, and the representative is speaking to me as if this is the first time T-Mobile has ever heard about the issue. I’m being asked the same initial questions that were already answered, reviewed, and supposedly resolved last month. That is exactly the problem. This is not one mistake or one bad representative. When the same thing happens repeatedly across different issues, it starts to look like a systemic failure in T-Mobile’s customer service, internal documentation, follow-through, and accountability.

      A customer should not have to spend hours repeatedly managing T-Mobile’s own internal failures just to get basic issues resolved. If you’re considering T-Mobile, don’t only look at the price or coverage. Think seriously about what happens when something goes wrong and you actually need customer service. Based on my experience, that alone would be enough for me to never choose T-Mobile again.

      This review is basically to warn new or existing customers of what they "may" experience based on what I went through. I was a loyal customer for over 20 yrs. In July T-Mobile decided to "suspend" my service (per the text msg). Could not get anyone in customer support to help - told me to go to a store, so I did. The excuses for the suspension were 4 different things. 1. Late payment. Nope. Paid in full on time and had receipt. 2. There is a fee on my acct. Nope. Again paid in full per text message balance Zero. 3. My phone is 2G. Nope. It's always been 4G (upon creation!) and showed the store rep this. 4. My phone won't support 5G network. Nope. Been doing Just Fine until T-Mobile shut off service.

      Rep tried to give more excuses but I said I was done at that point. I was also told by this Rep that All T-Mobile customers will be going through this same thing. Again nope - I know others who have this service and nothing happened to their plan or phone use. This company seems to only care about money, not customers. If they say you have a Price Guarantee don't believe it. I was told the same and price went up multiple times, then my plan was "discontinued" by T-Mobile, and I was forced to get a more pricey one. If they tell you they will give you this or that, don't believe it. I was promised lots of things that never happened, including credits that were never applied. My advice is Just Say No. Even if they don't do something bad immediately, they eventually will.

      AVOID this company at all costs. Their customer service is horrendous. Have fun sitting on hold for hours trying to reach anyone, and once you do, they can care less. They will waste more of your time than any other company and will gladly let you know when you have a balance due. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Read the reviews; they are not sugarcoating anything. T-Mobile is an awful company.

      I was previously a US Cellular customer, and became a T-Mobile customer through the acquisition of US Cellular. My experience with T-Mobile customer service has been extremely disappointing! I went to the local T-Mobile store in Oak Creek, WI to get an understanding of differences between my current legacy US Cellular plan (Unlimited 2.0) and the plans that T-Mobile has to offer. There was one associate working at the time. I waited 25 minutes while he worked with one customer. At no point did he acknowledge me, and indicate he would be with me in 5 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour. I left to come back at another time.

      The next day I returned at 10:05 am (the store opens at 10:00). It was locked up. Finally an associate opened the doors at 10:12. I proceeded to ask the associate if she could tell me the difference between my Unlimited 2.0 plan and the Essentials 2.0 plan. She that they have no idea what the US Cellular plans are, and she is not able to compare features for me. T-Mobile acquired US Cellular, they are your plans now! And T-Mobile should be training the customer service associates to assist with such questions. So I tried to ask questions. I asked if I had 5 phones on an Essentials plan, could I upgrade the hotspot on one of the 5 phones. I was told no, I would have to go to a higher level plan that all phones had the upgraded hotspot. The T-Mobile website seems to indicate otherwise. Bottom line, I came away having know idea what it would cost to switch plans, and what I would gain or lose from my current “T-Mobile” plan! Bring back US Cellular!!!

      I am not asking T-Mobile for anything. I am writing this so the public knows what this company has become and how far their service has fallen. In December 2025, I purchased an iPhone through T-Mobile's JUMP upgrade program. I was home waiting for the delivery. The driver claimed he attempted delivery, but no one ever knocked, and the phone was shipped back to T-Mobile.

      What followed was almost a full year of being bounced around by a company that clearly has no idea what its own departments are doing: First they told me a replacement would ship once the returned phone was checked in. It never shipped. Then they told me to go to a store. The store said they couldn't help and I had to call. Then the phone reps told me I had to wait three months. I waited three months. They told me to keep waiting.

      Three months after that, a different rep admitted that everything I'd been told before was wrong, and that something needed to be manually changed on my account. After hours on the phone, they said the change needed 48 hours to process and then I could get my phone. That was months ago. It has now been almost a year since I paid for a phone that T-Mobile has had in its own possession the entire time, and I never received it or a replacement.

      Against my better judgment, I recently called T-Mobile to set up a business line. After another hour on the phone, they told me they couldn't help me and that I needed to go into a store. The exact opposite of what the store told me last time. Every single channel of this company contradicts the others. The stores blame the phone reps. The phone reps blame the stores. Nobody keeps their word, nobody follows up, and a paying customer can apparently wait a year for a product they already bought without anyone at T-Mobile caring enough to fix it. I have moved to Verizon and taken my personal and business lines with me. I'm not asking T-Mobile for a refund, a callback, or an apology. I just want anyone considering this company to know exactly what kind of experience they're signing up for.

      So aggravated, went to the T-Mobile in MERRILLVILLE. The guy who I had purchased everything from in June sold me the most expensive screen protector. Well, it cracked, he said I can get it replaced any time I get a crack. I went there tonight and they said I can’t now because I don’t have insurance is said then why did he replace it a month ago. They are full of shit wanted me to buy the zag brand now, Liesssss.I pay so much money, as soon as I can, I’m getting rid of T-Mobile.

      Have had T-Mobile for more than 9 years. All of a sudden when trying to pay, system not accepting payment. Using credit card for payment---DO NOT EVER AUTO PAY T-MOBILE...have been warned previously about T-Mobile's thieves, so always have paid by credit card. After years of monthly payments with no problem, all of a sudden, system won't accept the same credit card I've used for years. Called cust service 4 times, got jibberish responses. Yo T-Mobile: how about getting people WHO SPEAK FLUENT ENGLISH AND GIVE A HOOT ABOUT YOUR CUSTOMERS??? T-Mobile's cust service is despicable. Have since found out T-M's SYSTEM problems have affected MANY customers who are unable to make payments and are getting notices of threats of service disconnection, and told to contact their bank (which has nothing to do with T-M's system issues!) Looking for a different provider. No resolution, just a blame game pointed at the customer. T-Mobile is trash!

      I've been with T-Mobile for 17 years, and I am very disappointed. 😞 For the first time, I filed a claim and didn't reimburse me or do anything about it. It's a waste of time paying insurance for nothing. I am looking for another carrier and do not pay insurance or go to T-Mobile.

      Terrible customer service. Repeating the same information over and over rather than getting anything done long wait times taking over an hr to resolve what should be an easy switch. Best advice we got was to demand to talk to a tier 3 supervisor. They were helpful and responsive. If you're not gearing results demand tier 3 and you may have to hang up and try back a couple times before they actually do it but be persistent and willing to try a different agent to get what you need. I'm so sad US Cellular sold out to T-Mobile. Nothing but issues since.

      My experience with T-Mobile has been incredibly frustrating. After 7 loyal years, our bill increased by about $30/month, and when I tried repeatedly to contact our account manager by phone, email, and meeting request, I received no response. I also contacted his manager multiple times—again, no response. After waiting over 30 minutes on the service line, we ultimately decided to leave T-Mobile for another carrier.

      Unfortunately, leaving was just the beginning. I later discovered that four lines were still on our account, even though I couldn't see them in the T-Life app. I was told this was "user error" and had to ask four times before the lines were finally removed. I was then told about additional tablet charges and, later, balances on phones we had traded in—none of which had been clearly communicated during our discussions about leaving.

      I eventually escalated the issue and someone from T-Mobile's leadership team contacted me. Their solution? A $100 credit on a $900 bill, presented as being "generous" and "considerate of my experience." Even more concerning, the leadership representative couldn't clearly explain the charges they were trying to collect.

      That's the biggest issue: I still can't get a clear, consistent explanation of what I owe. I wasn't asking for special treatment. I was asking for basic communication, transparency, and competent customer service. Instead, I spent hours on hold, hours in stores, repeatedly contacted people who wouldn't respond, and ultimately received a bill that no one seems able to clearly explain. A $100 credit doesn't fix a $900 bill you can't explain. If you're considering T-Mobile, my advice is to document everything and get every charge and device balance in writing. My experience has made it very difficult to recommend T-Mobile to anyone who values responsive customer service and accountability.

      When receiving reminders, via text, to make payment/received payment, how about a "Please" and a "Thank You" instead of "Make your Payment" and 'Payment Received". Show some GD respect for your customers. There are other providers out there!
