    There was a issue that came aboard due to a customer representative reloading a payment into 1 account. After so many representative and supervisors to repeat self to about the situation no one had the common sense to look up or address if there was a solution. Almost giving up and not wanting to hear nor speak to another representative decide to give it another try. Well let's say it paid off, got to speak to a gentleman that needs to be recognized in Tmobile. His name is Kenneth, badge or ID # **, has all the patience in the world, knows how to deal with customer's issues, goes out of his way to see if there was a mistake or misunderstanding, does his homework as he should. Even with my frustration he stood his grounds and did his part to do what was needed to resolve the issue.

    If there's anything else to say t-mobile is need to go back to the $50 dollar pre pay monthly and beat the competition right out. Use are good, I'd not ever had no issue, service has been great. Hey if use a work on a few other place to add some towers I know tmobile will gain territory and a lot more clients. Greed doesn't take anyone anywhere. Can't tell use how to run a business but a dollar is better than 10 if you have quantity and quality, loyalty.

      I had four lines with T-Mobile for about four years - three lines in Orange County, CA and one line for my mom in Veneta, OR, about seven miles west of Eugene. We always had significant connectivity issues when calling to and from Veneta, and the video-call function almost never worked; it was spotty if she stayed in the house, but as soon as she'd go outside, the video would drop. Our connectivity within CA was always great. The four lines cost about $136/month. When Mom passed away this past June, our remaining three lines were about $105/month. I had asked for a better deal about eight months ago but was told none were available. I recently read in Consumer Reports that changing to a reputable "non-Big 3" carrier like ** could save us up to $40/month, so we switched. The whole process of switching took over a week because T-Mobile technicians took a whole week to unlock my device.

      However, all is well that ends well, and I MUST say that as long as we were with T-Mobile, their employees have been stellar!! While their technology (ours was 4-G) could've been better, I couldn't ask for better customer service from the employees themselves. (Wait times to get a human on the phone to help were often over an hour, though, which is unacceptable while listening to the disingenuous computer voice saying, "We value your business. Your call will be answered in the order received.") For me, the only deal-breaker was that T-Mobile was just too expensive, and there are more affordable and equally - or more - reliable alternatives.

      I've been with T-Mobile for 17 years, and before that, I was with them for 2 years on the T-Mobile ToGo plan. They are not perfect, I've had troubles, which means I've dealt with customer support a lot. I'm the kind of person that calls in any time something isn't working right, so, yeah, I've spent a lot of time with customer/technical support. 99% of the time I don't get put on hold, I'm usually talking to someone live in about 1 to 2 minutes. When they're busy the automated system asks if you'd like a call back, usually in about 30 minutes so I press 1 for yes. Almost every time I get a call back in less than 10 minutes, unless there is a major outage, then it could be just under an hour, but that's very rare.

      Whenever I have an issue, it's dealt with right away and the reps are always courteous and respectful. If the rep doesn't fix the issue, or seems to not understand, I just call back and get a different rep. During my 20+ years running a computer repair business, I've had many times where customers want me to deal with their internet and phone providers, I'm good at dealing with tech support. Dealing with AT&T and Verizon is almost impossible. I haven't dealt with Verizon much, so maybe I just had some bad reps, but I've dealt with AT&T many times, including my home internet which took me 4 months of calls every day to get my billing right, then several calls to cancel because they couldn't get my billing right.

      I spent about 2 to 4 hours a day. Every time I call AT&T I get transferred several times and usually get disconnected before ever talking to anyone. There are days this happens over and over and have to give up and try the next day. I've never had that with T-Mobile, I always get a rep within an hour, but most of the time within 2 minutes or so. The key is, if you are not satisfied with the help you get, call back, tell the next rep what happened. Sometimes it just takes a second call, not everyone is perfect, sometimes you get a bad rep, or a rep that is having a bad day. There are many times in the last 17 years T-Mobile has gone out of their way to make things right with me when something went wrong, I highly recommend them.

      I do not discounts the terrible reviews for T-Mobile as it has always been a negative experience, or a positive outcome after many hours of dealing with them on the phone and being transferred. However, today I want to be appreciative of on the first phone call be addressed by the lovely agent Heather that very quickly understood my issue and within a short amount of time and just one adjustment was able to fix everything. She was compassionate and without me having to have an hour of conversation was able to picked up and fine a solution to my problem, using her critical thinking skills.
      The 5 stars go to Heather, since I have said this is not my tipical experience, and although I do agree with the critics the T-Mobile as a company does not care, I can't help myself but to be hopeful that at least one member of their leadership will. To the leader member that cares please take this as an advice and try to invest in training by exemplary team members like Heather.

      Once again Heather, if you read this review thank you so much you not only fix my issue but also made my anxiety of talking to a representative dissapear and created a pleasant conversation.

      Now first of all I've been a customer of T-Mobile for years. Through my many years I have never been treated the way I was treated 6/5/24 at the Knollwood location in St Louis Park Mn. I came in for help with my claim on one of the seven devices that I have insured. Now being old school I'm not the best with tech. I need help with a claim that was stuck in limbo due to computer error totally understandable. Mind you I am frustrated keeping composed. But this young man didn't hold the skill set to be in customer service.

      I eventually told the young man, "So you're telling me to call corporate to get my answer." He in turn wanted to debate tmobile's legality of the insurance. I repeated so you want me to call corporate. I was simply trying to help him understand a better way to address this. I eventually ask for his name and the manager's name. This must've insulted him which I don't understand, since I was simply asking in case someone asked at corporate. Yet as I turned to walk away he made a comment to his co worker in the presence of a customer and his daughter who were chuckling away with the co worker. I turned back and approach now there wasn't a smile. I ask what he said. I heard but wanted to know if he'd repeat. Which he didn't want to.

      It was at that point I understood why we have unprecedented incidents. This is one of the main causes. People working in positions that don't have the skill set to be in customer service. It would have been nice to have someone sit down and walk me through the claim process. Not frustrate me more. I Love Tmobile. They are my connection to the world in which I live. This time the ball was dropped. Thankfully there was a store in Plymouth that helped by sitting down with me so I could talk to the person on the Assurant web link. The young man's comment was WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM. CRAZY OR SOMETHING.

      Well when I came in you ask how could you help. My exact words were I'm kinda frustrated with my claim .Can't seem to be able to talk to assurant. First notice your customer is frustrated. Remember you just asked them how you could help. Also there is nothing wrong with going above and beyond if you will to insure customer satisfaction. How would you want someone to address this issue if it was you in need of customer service. Don't tell a client, "Well we just sell you the insurance." Still give the company 5 stars but as a long standing customer of seven accounts I hope you address this.

      First, T-Mobile is having difficulty sending text messages. Second, when you call to talk to customer service, you get someone in the Philippines whose accent is difficult to understand. What a second-rate company. I live in the US, I pay in US dollars, and make all of my calls in the US. They should have a call center based in the US.

      ALERT, ALERT, ALERT!!!! T-mobile is HORRIBLE. I called to ask about a family plan and they told me we need all your info before we can give me a quote. They were going to pay off our existing phone too. We decided not to go with t-mobile because Verizon matched their price and t-mobile said, "We can't activate your line till you go to store." We never went to store and signed any contract approved any payment and they stole $150 from me. I will be filing a lawsuit for stealing from customers.

      We had difficulty pairing a watch and a phone that had recently been transferred from another company. Angela helped us get it done very quickly with considerable patience and great success! Hope I can speak to her if I call again.

      Recently switched from T-mobile to AT&T because we were tired of always having to call customer support. We had autopay set up but always have different amounts charged. Each time we call customer service, there’s always different stories from different agents. We got sick of it thought we’d call and asked if our devices are paid off before we switched to another phone company. They told us everything was paid off and we’re cleared, so we switched to AT&T because they have a good deal at that time. Long story short, after moving out of T-mobile we received a bill.

      We called and they said it is a prorated balance so we went ahead and paid for it. Agent told us that was our last bill from them and we shouldn’t worry about another bill (call recorded). Sadly enough we got another bill yesterday. We called and call was escalated and they said it was an Equipment charge. Wait, I thought we’re cleared (smh). We tried to explain to them but unfortunately they said we already signed the papers so weird pay. Not only that they were unwilling to work something out, that specific person on the other line was literally talking over us in a very rude manner. Zero customer service at all. If you’re planning on going T-mobile, you might want to read every little letter in their contracts before you sign anything.
