I visited T-Mobile office at the Town Center in Redmond, Washington today. As a long time T-Mobile customer, I have not always been pleased with the level of service I receive. Today my wife and I had the pleasure of working with Jessica **. She provided exceptional service, was professional, knowledgeable and kind.

I love Metro by T-Mobile, the one on Market and Kerr in Wilmington North Carolina. It's truly the best. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They are always so nice when I go in and they're always so helpful and positive. I am so very grateful. They have great prices. I recommend you go see them as soon as possible

Your employee Whitney at the Okmulgee, OK Metro store was very friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable on your services and products. I had been with a previous cell service for over 20 years, and decided to switch to your service. The overall experience I received from Whitney convinced me to switch. I also purchased several other products from her. The only drawback of my visit to your store was that it was very warm. It is a shame that the employees have to work under such conditions.

I woke up one morning with a notification saying that I had to pay $40 to avoid my account being suspended. So naturally I called customer service. Only to be told that my bank returned a partial payment because it was insufficient funds. As we all know that's not how banks operate, if you don't have enough money to cover the transaction they decline the entire transaction. But I went with it and I looked through my entire online statement for the last several months that I have been a customer with Metro by T-Mobile. And sure enough there was no returned charge of any kind to the company.
I tried to speak with a supervisor about this transaction and he proceeded to yell at me and tell me there was no way that they were going to reverse those charges. I had to actually get a representative from another phone company as I was switching, to get the company to reverse the charge. This is an incredibly ridiculous way to conduct business and I am terribly sad that I left my other phone company to know deal with this poor customer service.

Hello this is a customer of your for 18/19 years and I feel a certain way. You have great plans for new customers but not for me or those who have been a loyal customer for 19 years. I have had three line and two on a consistent basis. I want to feel appreciated and shown appreciation by giving your customer who has longevity some customers appreciation. New customers get $25 a line. Why can’t we get the same or lower. Times have gotten hard with gas and groceries going up. Even utilities has increased.

I don’t understand why they charging the extra 5 dollar fee if when you call the *611 the machine answers and forces you to only make payments before you even have the chance to speak to somebody because you forgot your account number or the pin that the employee gave to you when you bought the phone at the store. At that point what’s the point of charging the extra 5 dollars if it’s gonna be less work for them and the owner don’t wanna pay up those 5 dollars himself. At first it was understandable because they do deserve a lil extra which I doubt they would knowing how greedy people can be and also the store employees are always forcing unwanted insurance and other feature people don't want on they plan.
We always gotta call 611 or at least back then without a forced payment to be able to talk to somebody. Sometimes we don’t got the option to go to store without having to maybe walk or even worse spend more money to get an Uber just for something so minimal. I was gonna give a 1 star at first but I’ll give an extra star for the customer service. They always been great and helpful. It’s just how the policies be just be outrageous sometimes. And also the free phones they give out is a danger to society. Can’t give phones for free to people who can’t afford to spend on new ones and then after a day of using them making people hate the fact they got that new free phone. It should be illegal. The reason why is because in case of emergency they gotta restart they phone because it froze or take also another 3 minutes before making a call to 911 because the phone is just so slow and then the employees at the store say they cost normally 200/400 dollars.
If that’s the type of phones y'all accept to sell and give out cheap and a quick buck for phones. It's not smart at all. After the one plus phone got discontinued and had to resort to the cheap Samsungs and Motorolas it’s been hell. It constantly gives you a headache and it's a torment throughout the year. After I gotten an iPhone for the price of what those badly made phone for 400 those headaches went away and the stress of knowing a cheap phone can delay emergency calls and can hardly function on the times we got the chance to lay back and enjoy being on our phones. The safety of the people matter to just recklessly hand out free phones that don’t work properly outta the box. I hope there’s great changes for the company in the future. I got my first phone thru y'all when I was 12 and I'm 30 now so it really sucks to have to feel that way from dealing with with the company. Reckless. Sells/free phones.

All these years. I live on a fixed income, just struggling to make ends meet. I bought a new galaxy phone less than a year ago, in 08/15/2026, my screen just blacked out. My phone was not dropped, or got wet, all off a sudden, out of the blues, screen blocked lout, and I cant use my phone for anything. when I went to the metro store, he just nonchalantly told me that, these phone screens just die out, out the blue in less than a year (after you pay all that money for a phone, that's less than a year old). I didn't know that when I bought the phone, I was subject to straight legal robbery.

DO NOT USE THIS STORE!!!! I went to port out my number and change from Metro to another provider, due to my daughter and I have had horrible service with metro for the last month or more, calls dropped, sos, no service, random issues and no one in customer care that really cared to help. After trying to attempt to port my number, I find out that my phone is locked to metro! When we signed up for this service, we had been told the phones would be unlocked after 3 months of service. That was not true, they lied in order to sweeten the pot after we had been indecisive about their service.
I tried to talk to customer service phone line and was told to go to the store where the phones had been purchased and get it figured out. I got to the store and was told by the woman working there that it must have been a old flyer, bad employee as well as she told me over the phone when I called, while I was driving to the store, that metro had changed their policy recently. I asked her how the policy applies to me since I signed up before the change, she simply said... "Not our problem, you need to talk to customer care"...!!!
When I drove over a hour to get to the store, I was treated like I was the problem and a bother, she then changed her story and said "I've been with metro for 16 yrs, they have always had the policy of 365 days before they release the devices." So.... now she's back tracking what she originally said on the phone! No apology, no "so sorry about the misunderstanding, how can we make this right "... I ended up leaving disgusted, I will wait out the policy period and promptly leave metro and never ever use them again!!!!

I am the acct holder and I have a authorized user on my acct which I thought I removed. The authorized user went and bought a phone and decide they would get their own acct. So the person did not know my security pin to get access to my acct. The store rep who sold the phone bypassed security protocol and sent the person a one time code to their phone, not mine. So the person could change my pin password to get into my account. Once they did that I did not know the password pin on my acct. They were about to cancel a line on my acct and then port the number out to their new phone and set up their on act without my consent. Then change my plan even though they were no longer on my acct.
The whole time this was happening I had called Metro 3 times to alert them that I did not want to release no numbers in my acct. Then I get a text saying changes were made and if I didn't make changes to notify them. I did and rep told me to ignore the text they sent. It was a old text from last year. I talked to two supervisors and no help. One told me nothing was done illegally because authorize user has the right to change my password and to make any changes on my account with my consent. It is identity theft, unauthorized computer/account access.
This is the second time this same thing has happened to me with metro. So I did file with the FTC, BBB, and my plans are to file with state attorney general office. This has taken up so much of my time and been so stressful in me knowing metro would not be willing to fix what they did. I'm also been talking with a attorney also. So beware that your account is not security safe and reps can bypass security protocol and bypass the transferring of a line and porting a number out without my consent. I been with metro for ten years and as soon as I get all this done I will be ending my service with this company that none of their supervisors know anything that's going on there.

When it was agreed to get a free tablet by adding a line for an additional $25/mo, they send a cellphone. Then, this caused a week's worth of delays between sending the wrong item back, and awaiting for the correct item to be delivered. The most disappointing incident was today when it was discovered that the "grandfathered" Amazon Prime would no longer be provided with a new phone upgrade, after the order has already been placed. My fiance asked the supervisor if the cellphone order could be canceled and reinstate the previous plan including Amazon Prime, as a means to retain & resolve the concern, but was told "no". I plan on sending the tablet back, canceling my Metro by T-Mobile account, and go with another provider.

I have to say, this never happened when it was just Metro, and they told me that since today is Friday, I'm not going to be able to be reached by the manager until Monday, and also the only way I can have my service back is by paying at the store.

I was with Metro for 3yrs due to the cheap prices for phone and home internet. I knew going in the phones where cheap and not high quality. I did it anyway. I never missed a payment with the auto pay. The phone service was fair. The home internet was horrible. For the last year I would have to call because the internet would go out. I was promised so many times it wouldn't happen again which it kept happening so my fiance and I decided to go to AT&T.
When we called Metro and asked for the PIN to change service they was so rude after trying to keep us and we declined. I was just going to have the phone changed and the internet later cause we just paid for that month's service 5 days earlier of 117 dollars. After we was finished at ATT we went home. The internet was off. I called Metro and was told since I canceled my phone service my internet was canceled also. When I said, "Fine. Just give me a prorated refund," I was told no and unless I got another phone line with them the internet would stay off. So Metro by T-Mobile internet is terrible. Customer service is terrible and they are also thieves. Switching to another carrier was the best phone and internet decision we could have made. They wouldn't even rate one star if I didn't have to to post this concern.

On 9/8/2026, I went in to the Pace Blvd. Metro PCS store to buy a new phone because I thought my phone had stopped working. I picked out a flip phone for $89.00 (price displayed) because it was in my price range. I was told by ** that I had to switch my plan in order to set up the phone. He said it was an "upgrade". I told him I did not want an upgrade, I have had the same plan with Metro PCS for 11 years. He said that's the only way to get a phone so I reluctantly agreed and still do not know exactly what he did to my plan because I walked out having paid $144 for a phone plus a charger I didn't need or ask for an overpriced $32.00 charger. AND, nothing about my service plan was explained, I was not greeted with a hello, never got a "how can I help you". I was unsatisfied with the phone, it was too difficult to text.
I initially asked ** if he thought I was making a mistake buying the Flip phone the day before. He said no. On 9/9, I tried I to exchange the phone but was denied an exchange, but was refunded for the unnecessary charger. No apology. On 9/10 I went back in and tried to return the phone, citing the receipt states that "we're happy to accept returns for device/accessory". I was denied. Customers are expected to read the entire receipt stating the company's contradictory policy AFTER THE PURCHASE HAS BEEN MADE!! And on top of that, last night - 9/11, I tried to make a call and my service was shut off due to non payment even though I was paid in full until 9/26.
I had to pay some random amount of $21.17 this morning to have my already paid for service to be restored after going without any contact with emergency services or my family because of incompetence and bad management, bad policies. I am appalled by the inconvenience, trauma, and stress that I have experienced by patronizing this company. I am awaiting their response to my feedback provided to them. This took place at 3105 North Pace Blvd. Pensacola, FL - Invoice # **

So this year after I had owned my phone for over a year I tried switching over to Google Fi for my service but Metro won’t remove their sim lock on my I phone 13 even though my phone is paid off.
I’ve had it for over a year, they still won’t take their lock off my phone. They say until November 22, 2026. That would be 15 months after purchase when they say 365 day. So not only are they hold my phone hostage, they are try to force me back into getting their service again til they will unlock it. The only way it will work is what they told me. So I would strongly advise anyone thinking about using this service don’t. They told me yesterday my phone would be unlocked today and today they say it won’t be unlocked til November but I could reactivate service with them for my phone to work

If you are a current customer with Metro by T-Mobile and need a new device but wish to keep the same phone number and same plan, be aware that no matter what the manager or salesperson says, the device you purchase to replace the old device is non-returnable & non-exchangeable for any reason, unless it's a manufacturer's defect.
I spent over $550 at Metro by T-Mobile because I was told I had to pay full retail price if I chose to keep my same phone number and same plan. I had lost my A54 and wanted a comparable phone. The store manager told me flat out that not only is the A37 comparable, it is better. It took me a matter of hours before I learned that I was lied to. I went into the store the next day and told the store manager I'd like to exchange it for the A57 as the A37 does NOT have the same features at all & that I would pay the difference. The store manager said no, I can't take that A37 back. It was considered an upgrade and is non-returnable, non-exchangeable.
This is way too much money to have such a policy in place. I have spent 3+ hours on the phone, have sent emails, mailed a certified return receipt letter & have contacted the BBB regarding this, as I did not know this "policy" at all, nor was I ever informed! Metro's Executive department won't do anything either. They only said they were sorry that I am so frustrated, but this is their policy. This is absurd! Plus, the store had the A57's listed retail price at $899, which I learned the next day is only $550.
I would've gladly paid $50 for the better phone. But now, according to Metro by T-Mobile, there is nothing they can nor will do besides offer me to purchase a 2nd phone line, increasing my monthly expenses. They have not taken any responsibility about the store manager's lies, massive difference in price of the devices in the store, because apparently the stores can set their own prices, and the fact that I'm just out of nearly $600 because the phone won't work for my needs. It is NOT comparable to the A54.

I took Metro by T-Mobile offer, of a new Galaxy A17 phone if I ported out and transfer my number from Spectrum Mobile to them. Two days later the supposedly brand new phone they gave me starts sending me messages, that the UI app is not working, I did not think too much about it, by the third day I started seen this message a lot more often?? I had been clearing the cache for the settings, phone and Google Play Store apps. And restarting the phone for the last couple of days, but I was beginning to see this message a little too often by the third day... I am very familiar, with it is like to deal with a phone that is very or too old.... I know how a phone, that is too old behaves and I certainly know, how a new phone behaves also....
So I went to the Metro by T Mobile store from where I got the phone, I confronted the Metro representative, that processed my order, as well as his manager, they told me, that I had not properly updated my phone apps and software and that it was my fault?? They refused to take a look or check my phone and refused to give me a replacement?? They seemed to just wanted to only to give me my money back and get rid of me?? They said, that if I wanted to keep the service, that they were certainly not going to give me a replacement?? That I had to go to the Assurant, the insurance I signed up for, when I got the phone??
I went their Assurant Insurance and they told me, they I had to pay money to replace the phone and that if they did it and approved it, it wasn't going to be a new phone?? But Assurant told me, they did not replace phones with the kind of problem I was having, that they did not replace a phone with a faulty operating system or CPU?? Contacted Metro by T-Mobile and told me what Assurant said?? Metro told me, that they could not do anything about it?? Metro suggested to contact Samsung the maker of the Samsung A17, I did research on Samsung's phone insurance policy and they got a rule that says, that they will not insure a phone, that comes with pre-existing issues or conditions, so as a result of metro by T-Mobile extreme cost savings policies, I am left with faulty phone????

I have been with Metro by T-Mobile for years. I mean over a decade. At the beginning it was great, you could upgrade, the service was cheap, and it reached everywhere I needed to be, across the United States. They recently changed their plans where you have to be on a flex plan for a year before getting an upgrade. So not knowing this, because I've had my phone at the time for a few years, I go to get an upgrade, and find this out. Well not only can I not get the upgrade but they want me to pay full price for a phone, where their benefits used to be getting a phone without an upgrade you could pay a smaller price, for cheaper phones. And I'm the past I had utilized that a lot when my phone would break mid upgrade time. And it was helpful, because they aren't known for the best quality products anyway. So it helped me not have to pay ridiculous amounts that I couldn't afford. Well now you can't do any of that.
So I relented and got on the flex account, with my 2 sons, waited the year for the upgrade, and went to get the upgrade. Then was told that I didn't qualify for the upgrade because I had been put on the family plan.... Well that was not told to me at the time of purchase. I expressly asked about the upgrades on the family plans and was told we would be eligible for the upgrade. So imagine my anger. We tried to buy new phones and they they wanted us to pay full price. While all the new customers get all these great benefits but I've followed their rules, paid my bills, and for being a loyal customer for years I get nothing, except lied to, over charged, and treated like my continued business is irrelevant to them. They want so badly to gain new business that they are willing to lose long time loyal customers to get their new customers.
I will never spend another time with Metro by T-Mobile, after everything they've put me through this last couple of years. If they could see this review, I would ask them, why their loyal customers are not as important as getting the new ones. Why aren't we important enough to get continued benefits and discounts... When it's inevitable to replace your phones almost yearly due to the lack of quality, you clearly realize your products have.

I've been with Metro for years. I moved to Texas from Tennessee in 2023. 2024 I had my number switched over to a Texas number.

I just happened to check my accounts about a year later only to find out that I'm still being charged 5 dollars for a Tablet I had in Tennessee 901 area code. I spoke with a Rep and she assured my that they would remove that Tablet and gave me a 5 dollars discount. It's now 2026 and I'm still being charged 5 dollars for a Tablet I had in 2024.
I've been lied to by every Representative I've discussed this situation with at Metro. The Tablet was never removed and until today I was still paying 5 dollars a month for it. The only discount I was offered is 5 dollars off on my 107 a month bill. WHERE IS THE 165 dollars that I've been paying for 32 months for the Tablet that was not even activated and was supposed to be removed from my account. You people are conducting fraudulent activities at Metro and I intend to take legal actions. I'm also being charged Tennessee tax as well as Texas tax be Metro for 2 years.

I was told I couldn’t cancel because it was a promotion for a free line if I choose tinier it. But it came at the expense of removing my insurance on my phones. In authorizing my account without my permission having me unable to do work for 3 days I was given a credit of $20 like that’s suppose help. They also took $10.80 from a card in my account. Basically stealing from me as well. I have a recording from support stating that the staff in store can override account PINs and text to make changes without the account holder's permission. IF YOU HAVE METRO “LEAVE“. If you stay, you are subjected to having your account being compromised especially if you have saved cards.

I visited this store on 8/22/26 around 4:00 PM to activate an insurance replacement phone. What followed across three local franchise locations (Acushnet Ave, Union St, and King's Hwy Plaza) was an unbelievable ordeal involving fraud, physical assault, and account tampering. Earlier that day, I was at the 1859 Acushnet Ave store where the rep denied service after I repeatedly refused to open a new line (asking me 7 times). He accessed my account via an email PIN, and when I stood firm, he deleted my two-factor verification email. Because my original screen was smashed and couldn't receive text PINs, this left me unable to verify my account. Unbeknownst to me, he also called the other local stores under this franchise to block me.
When I arrived at the Union St location, the rep gave me a hard time before I even gave him my number, insisting I change my 3-year-old PIN to "bypass" a locked account. Since I had just accessed my account via email, I refused. As I walked out, I took a picture of him for documentation. He immediately came around the counter and physically tried to grab my phone out of my hands twice.
The retaliation escalated at their 3rd location on King's Hwy Plaza, where they called the police on me. Fortunately, four understanding New Bedford Police officers stepped in, saw through what was happening, and assisted me in getting to a Metro store in Providence to handle my issue safely away from these abusive reps. When I got home, the full scope of the damage was clear: the rep at the first store didn't just remove my email—he removed the devices on my account and deactivated my 26-year-old phone number, which is tied to my entire life and banking, locking me out of my emails and accounts completely.
**Formal Actions Taken:**
* **Criminal & Police:** A formal police report for battery and fraudulent account tampering/hacking has been filed with the New Bedford Police.* **Regulatory Authorities:** Formal complaints are filed with the Massachusetts Attorney General and the [FCC Consumer Complaints Center](https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov).
* **Legal Notice:** A certified letter is being sent directly to Metro by T-Mobile Legal Counsel regarding physical assault, unauthorized account termination, and fraudulent alteration of personal data.
Tampering with a customer's account to deactivate a paid, 26-year-old phone number out of retaliation is completely illegal. I demand my phone number back immediately. Beware of unauthorized account modifications and SIM swap tactics at these franchise locations. This review will be updated as police and legal proceedings progress.
