    We signed up for a promotion to get a Google watch for free if we paid the monthly $20 line fee. The watch charge is approx. $16.67 a month, and we are still paying that after a YEAR & tons of calls to them.

    T-Mobile appears to engage in fraudulent practices. After transferring my four lines to a different provider, I inadvertently left my auto-payment method active, resulting in a double charge. When I contacted their staff to request a refund, the supervisor treated me poorly, provided incorrect information, gave an erroneous confirmation code, and advised waiting three business days. Despite waiting over 10 business days without a refund, subsequent contacts yielded the same unsatisfactory response, leading me to urge caution when dealing with this company due to its deceptive practices.

    After 14 years with T Mobile I call the customer service Philippines office to explain that I had a data plan for long distance and ask them what long distance call I made and the rep refused to tell me. They said it happen when I was already back in the States. I never been late on my bill with them and rarely leave the country. The rep that I purchased the plan told me I would be cover under this plan. I have a bill of 189 dollars. Think it's time to find another Carrie. I don't like getting customer service in the Philippines never had problems with the New Mexico office her in the United States.

    I received the wrong phone. It already had text messages on the phone and was the wrong phone completely. Now T Mobile is trying to make me pay a restocking fee and pay extra to get the phone I actually ordered and paid for from the get go. I have been taken advantage of and lied to. T Mobile made the mistake not me and I have them on a recorded line admitting that they made the mistake. Not me. I should not be held responsible for their mistake.

    Poor service, even worse customer service and insurance policy. It may be more affordable than some carriers but it's not worth it. I've heard people say much better things about other carriers in the same price range.

    I was a customer of T-Mobile 10 plus years and always paid my bill on time. September 20th paid my bill early $172.85. Usually cancels out autopay. September 21 I was charged again, called them. They said they would refund me 2-3 business day and nothing so I left T-Mobile and filed claim with my bank. Today 10-4 I was told I would get a pre paid card, I told them that’s not how I paid. I would like to get refunded through my debit like I paid. They said that was not possible and that I could use the card to go grocery shopping. So now I have to come out of pocket and pay bank back. Awful business.

    My experience with T-Mobile was horrible. I switched to T-Mobile because they had "free" international texting just before I was about to go to Paris. Before switching, I asked multiple times if the international texting was actually included in my plan and was assured that it was. When I got to Paris, my phone simply did not work unless I was in my apartment connected to wifi. I spent 5 hours on the phone with T-Mobile staff trying to get service but it never worked. I spent my entire trip without cell phone service so I had no GPS, no ability to look up sites I wanted to visit, no ability to book restaurants, and no ability to text or receive messages unless I was in my room connected to wifi.

    When I got back home, my phone still didn't work properly and had to be reactivated. When I complained about it and asked that I be refunded for the days I had no service, I was told that my plan didn't cover international texting and was given no refund. I was also told that the sales staff must have lied to me because they wanted to make the sale. They took NO responsibility at all. I have since switched to another carrier and will never use T-Mobile again.

    Yes I became a customer of T-Mobile and within that time I became a victim of Identity/financial fraud. I called as soon as I was notified and I have explained this situation and that T-mobile allowed my account to be comprised as well. They still suspended my services, refused to help in any way and I don't feel like for a customer of 3 years should have to experience this in any way. They would not do anything to try and get the account or help with it or do anything. Very bad, poor customer service. I really am considering closing my account with T-mobile. I don't recommend them to anyone.

    My husband went through his Verizon account and got the t mobile wi fi for our home service. The service was low quality so after a short time he discontinued the service and asked how to send them the box back. They kept giving him the run around. But we're sending a higher and higher bill each month. They had stopped sending bills and we had given up on trying to get them the service tower back to them. It has been over a year and I have forgotten all about it. Until about a month ago... My husband passed away July 25, 2024 and in August I received a call from a collection agency asking for the representative of the estate of...

I told her that I have nothing to give (the truth) and that I will file bankruptcy (and I will). T-Mobile service was poor, their customer service was bad, and their collections is in very poor taste, and manners. I would not use them again if they were the only company on planet earth, nor would I recommend them, not even to someone that I do not like.

    The agency will lie and hide evidence and manipulate customers and add fees to your bill and refuse to fix it for you and will constantly charge your bank account fees and constantly shut down your phones so they can charge restore fees also. I have tried for a month to be patient and work with them on a resolution and was lied to about that too and have nothing to show for it but 350 more than what I was told my bill would be and one of the lines on my account hasn't been used in months.

She called back and mentioned we were cut off. I told her, "I hung up." She said she called to waive the fee. She lied to me at that point and told me that she was then not going to waive the fee.

    I’ve been dealing with T-Mobile for months, and it has been an absolute nightmare. In June 2024, I ordered a 5G internet plan and a Go 5G phone plan. Despite never receiving the order, I’ve been charged every month. I've made countless calls and sent emails, but there's been no resolution. Every time I speak with a customer service agent, I'm told a different story, full of empty promises and lies. It’s beyond frustrating.

    What’s worse is that I’ve been receiving constant threats that the charges will be sent to collections, despite their reassurances that it would be corrected. It's been over three months, and I still haven’t received a refund for the order that was never delivered. This company is acting more like a scam than a reliable service provider. It's unbelievable how such a large company can operate with this level of dishonesty and incompetence. T-Mobile, you need to do better. I feel like I’ve been duped, and no customer should have to go through this! Beware of their false promises and lack of accountability.

    If you ever need competent, efficient and fast customer service, look elsewhere. I get emails saying I left T-Mobile even though I paid months in advance, a lot. I spent literally my work hours to get answers to stop these disturbing emails but not a single person could give an answer until a supervisor named Carlos tried to help, but his message was:

    "Lori, I sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration this has caused. I understand how alarming it must be to receive an unexpected cancellation email, especially when you have been a loyal and current customer. I appreciate you providing the details and your patience as we work through this. First, let's address the email about the cancellation. It appears there may have been an error or misunderstanding on our end. I will immediately investigate your account to understand why this email was sent and ensure your service remains active. Regarding the PIN issue, I understand how critical it is to have access to your account. Since you mentioned you have not received the new PIN via text, I will personally ensure that we get this resolved for you right away. Please bear with me for a moment while I look into your account details. I will provide you with an update as soon as possible. Thank you for your continued patience."

    Never to be heard from again. Twice I attempted to get another rep and apparently they are either not able to read or cannot view my issues earlier in the chat, because they ALWAYS ask what my reason for what I need. They give you a link to fill out, twice, and still want to verify info in the chat!!! I can’t believe in 2024 such incompetent, time consuming, and useless service exists with T-Mobile!!!!

    I have had T-Mobile for a few years and didn’t have major problems until I decided to get some watches. I had called T-Mobile to order watches I ended up getting the Sync up kids 2 watch and a Google Pixel 9XL. I was told that I needed a watch line in order to have the kids watch. It turns out I didn’t need the phone line nor the brand new phone. I had no problems returning the phone and getting my money back. So I call T-Mobile again to order 2 watches I wanted the pixel 3 but they were still pre order so the representative talked me into Apple watches. So I get the apple watches and try to set them up and could not set them up.

    I call T-Mobile back and got transferred 3 times before someone told me that I was given wrong information. So I bring the watches back to an actual store. One of the watches I didn’t even open the other one I couldn’t use and they still charged me a restocking fee and kept the activation fee they charged me before I even got the watches in my possession.

    The lady at the store couldn’t get ahold of a manager and I was tired of waiting around I said I’d call when I got home. So I call and the First Lady was argumentative but said she understood my situation and she would get a manager. So the manager comes in the phone and right away she was just snotty. I tried telling her I understand it’s not her fault and I just feel like I've been swindled. She asks how and I explain to her I was given wrong information about something, bought two devices I can’t even use and am getting a restocking fee and activation fee was kept. She escalated from there demanding I tell her who told her that and I said I would get it for her and she said she would credit me $20 to my account and if there is anything else she could do…. She hung up before I could respond… Worst yet I never got my $20 credit

    I wish I could give less than one star for how terrible the service has been. I live separate from my parents, but have Wi-Fi under their account and I have never had worse service, it is at 30 MBPS which is INSANELY low. I have called twice in the past year to try and get this fixed only to be told to unplug and replug the device. Even when following those instructions, the connection is still so terrible and has messed up job interviews for both me and my roommate. When trying to cancel, I am told that I cannot do so without the account holder being present, even though I’m grown and pay that bill. Overall, I have never been made to feel more small or useless by a company, especially their tech-support branch. I will not be returning ever.

    The worst customer service! False and misleading promotion! I have a business to which the Tmobile employee Joshua was offering a FREE internet plan for 30 days, which we wanted to try and after a week we told him that it was useless since we have more than 30 computers and phones... the employee never responded after letting him know that the service was useless. Joshua BY himself created an account and put in a pin which we never knew, every time we called T-Mobile customer service, they asked me for the pin which we never knew what it was, but since we still had the box they sent us a temporary pin and we could log into the account, after a month as they told me I called again and paid for a service that I only used for 7 days the full bill and they even gave me a label to return the letters to UPS. Today I received another invoice for the same AMOUNT previously paid...

    I call again and they ask me again for the pin that the employee Joshua never told us, since WE do not have the boxes in possession because they had already been returned, they now cannot access the account and cannot check what is happening... Because now no one takes responsibility, I paid for something that did not work and I already returned it, and the response from the last employee who attended me by phone today Farid was that the other bill could be for the supposed month that Joshua said was free.

    Do not fall for their false promotion. They do not give us free trials. They create false accounts and pins to be able to charge commission and then they don't help

    you resolve it by saying that without a pin they do not have access to the account. I attach Joshua's phone number with the conversation from June and even at the end of September they have not resolve me and they want to charge me for another month.

    It's the worst service I have ever had. I've been with T-mobile for 1 year and 6 months. After signing up for t-mobile, I went for 8 months deployment, not knowing I have connectivity issues since I only used my phone using wifi. After returning from 8 months of deployment, that when I noticed that my phone randomly lost signals and dropped calls. I called customer service, stating the issues, and they told me to change the sim card. The issue was still the same, so they said to set up esim. I called them again to tell them that the issue still the same, so they decided to change it to a newer sim card. I told them that it's the phone, but they insisted and told me to reset my phone network and, if it doesn't work, is to do factory reset. The problem is still the same and I asked if they could replace my phone, that's when they told me that I couldn't since I just passed my warranty so I had to upgrade my phone.

    After 8 months of asking t-mobile customer service if they have way of fixing the issue with no results, I decided to cancel my service and until now they still haven't approved my request and they said I have to pay for my phone since the contract was not met. Then I asked, "What about the whole 18 months of payments I made for the service I did not get at all?" All of the customer service can say was that they agree and they will do their best to help. T-mobile don't care about their customer at all and they just want your money. I wish I could get all my money back. All of their customer service doesn't know what they're doing. Every time I call, I have to explain the situation over and over and over, and in the end, all they say is that they understand.

    Honestly, had a great experience up to 9/24-9/26. I have recently had lost my job and had a temporary part time job and had made a payment arrangement that I really thought I could make it work. When I realized I would not be able to pay I called, spoke to a rep. All she could do was take my payment off so that checking account wouldn't overdraft. This was 9/22. I was told to call back on 9/24 after suspension to see what I could do. Chat on 9/24, the rep has no notes (I guess they don't write those on accounts anymore) so I have to repeat the whole process again. They tell me there's nothing they can do. Even when I try to set up a payment for the 27th (I had a very small amount coming in). Nothing they can do.

    9/25 my van gets a radiator leak and hurricane Helene forms. I'm using chat, had to go through the process all over, get morning but tools to call the 1888 number because the hurricane might change that. I call and start the process AGAIN. Nope, can't help me. I guess knowing a customer out there who might not be able to contact loved ones in a deadly weather emergency is A OK morally.

    At this point, I'm just curious if my phones are paid off, because this isn't ok. I'm suspended at this point, so I'm using my works wifi to use the chat feature. Rep 5, after explaining the entire process with updates has to START THE ENTIRE PROCESS OVER. Gets me to sign a paper to get approved for something (I think just to allow me to pay the entire bill on Oct 11). Talks me they will update me, but it'll take a few hours. This was 12pm. By 4pm still hadn't heard anything, so started a chat with a rep 6 who HAS TO START THE PROCESS OVER and informs me that my letter was rejected (wasn't informed at all) and after a pissed off conversation, I'm approved to pay 50$ on Friday, the suspension free is waived (60$) and I could make an arrangement for the rest.

    Final day 9/26: I get paid early, I start up a chat to pay the 50$ that I was promised abs told to pay. AND I HAVE TO START THE PROCESS OVER. I now am expected to pay the past due amount (not the 50$). And "chat" rep says they're "limited" in what they can do. I literally show her screenshots of what was promised. Now they tell me to wait 24 hours for approval. I cussed her out. I end up calling the 611 number and start the process for the 8th time. I no longer have to 50$, I no longer have the 60$ service fee taken off and the "computer" can't even help me with the arrangement (the dates aren't what I said I can do). Is some of this my fault? ABSOLUTELY.

    My issue is the lack of detail note taking that assists with helping reps deal with customers who have been speaking to several people. My issue is the lack of transparency when one rep says something can be done and it can't be done by another one. My issue is the lack of flexibility that reps used to have to assist customers whose lives just got slammed with too much stuff at once. Asking your customers to beg friends and family for money is not ok. That customer may not have a friend or family. There are people without support systems. Leaving your reps as shark bait for upset customers is a really crappy thing to do to employees. An inflexible computer system that doesn't leave any places for reps to assist with customer service leads to irate customers. After this experience I felt unseen, not listened to, and unimportant. That's why I'm leaving.

    I was a longtime customer of T-mobile and was suggested to try out their internet services which had a two week free trial. Unfortunately, or fortunately I had horrible service in my home. When doing a test on Cox and T-mobile, the fast test with Cox surpassed the service with T-Mobile. Within three days, I requested them to cancel it and asked where I would return my router? They said I could not return to a local store and I’d receive a shipping label from them, I never received one and frankly forgot about the router. A couple of months later a $370 charge was added to my bill and after calling customer care they said it was for the router I never returned. I explained to them about the situation, and that I still had the router and would be happy to return it if I was provided a shipping label. They stated the 45 days or whatever the timeframe was to return the router had expired and even if I returned it, I would still have to pay the fee.

    After arguing with them back and forth about this ordeal, I decided to go to another carrier and end my services with them. I paid the fee along with an additional fee for a line I had previously CANCELED which they only “suspended” temporarily, but they charged be a reactivation fee just before closing all other lines. At this point I was not going to argue with them, I just wanted to end any and all communication with them so I paid them and left the store. To everyone out there, those recorded conversations with T-mobile are pretty much for their own records ONLY. They don’t take accountability for anything they note on your account or anything they say in their recorded conversations. These outsourced customer service reps are so hard to understand and aren’t at all helpful.

    My original phone carrier was Metro PCS. I went to my local metro store on 9-13-24 to upgrade my current phone. It was suggested that I switch over to T-Mobile. I agreed. The first guy hung up on me, the 2nd guy said I already had an order pending that I needed to go to the store to find out what was going on. I did, no one at the store knew what I was talking about. I went back to metro pcs store. The clerk there said let’s try and call again. I agreed. Finally got ahold of someone that could help. Phones, cases, screen protectors and charging blocks were ordered. $80 in taxes were paid.

    Package arrived on 9-19-24. The only items in the package were a phone case and screen protector. That did not match the phone I had previously ordered. Called t mobile customer service. I was told they would put in a request to see what happened to the phones. Went ahead and ordered 2 more phones, had to pay $ 40 taxes on those which was then refunded and applied to my account. On 9-23-24 I received a package from t-mobile with 2 phone cases in it. I called t-mobile back and finally got ahold of someone who said let me fix this. On 9-25-24 I finally received 2 phones I ordered. Guess what? I still can not use them. Spent 2 hours on the phone just to be told I'm going to have to send you a SIM card to put in the phone because the e-sim is not working. Still don't have screen protectors or charging blocks. To say that I'm upset is an understatement. I should have stayed with metro pcs.
