    When I contacted T-Mobile about new service, I spoke to a really great rep named Jaz. I signed up for the 55 essentials plan and added another line for my son. I was told that the I-Phone 12 was $26 a month but with new service I would qualify for 50% off promotion which would make it $13 a month. My plan would be $55 a month. I agreed to that. I signed an agreement to that. But now with every month, I am charged twice as much.

    I was sent an updated agreement which not sure how they can legally do that without my signing it. When you call in to talk to someone, they NEVER see the promotional that I was told of 50% off a month of the phone. I screwed up big time switching to T-Mobile. Now I'm going to have to pay $600 for the phone when I cancel my service. Just go with another company that has a commitment to keep their word. Every rep that I have talked to has promised to follow up and make sure that my plan is as they have promised, but no one has.

    Hello: I have been a T-Mobile customer for 10 years; I have 6 business lines with them. When I signed up with them, they were wonderful; the service was great and reliable, but during the past 3 years, their service and reliability have been diminishing. In so many occasions, the phone calls does not go through even though we are testing our own phones; the phones do not ring and the callers are directed to voicemail; voicemails are not notified for as long as 3 days. Today I had a very important call which I took the day off just so to be able to receive the call. 12 minutes past the due time, I received an email that they had called me and it had directed them to voicemail. I was looking at my phone the whole time. This was the straw that broke the camel's back, and now I am searching for substitute to my business elsewhere. Sincerely, Michael

    Absolute garbage, save your money, you'll never get decent service or customer care. Had Sprint, GARBAGE, but T-Mobile beat them. Had Sprint, end of contract, requested to be transferred to T-Mobile. Assured I was now with T-Mobile, NOOOOO, still contracted with Sprint and had to do 2 more years with their trash services. I vowed I would change companies when the contract was up. Contract was up in April 2023, waited to August to change providers due to a move, damage to my house in a store, etc. Enduring crappy service, dropped calls, people thinking I had hung up on them when it was the phone. Phone losing connection, on and on and on. I have rather chopped off a finger than have to call their customer service to get help because it was going to take DAYS to get it fixed.

    Besides crappy cell service... They don't pro-rate when you switch providers. They will charge you the full bill if you used 1 day or 29 days into the new billing cycle. Of course, you are just supposed to know that. When I called to cancel service, they wanted to hear nothing but when I would be paying for this month's service at the full rate to close the account. Of course, the rep felt that I should have just known that they don't pro-rate. "It's an industry standard" he says... It took me a week to just get into my Sprint, now T-Mobile account to get the information I need to switch providers.

    The rep from T-Mobile promised to call me back on a Thursday, or in two days and I would be able to get into my account…but lo and behold he got back to me the next week. So had to wait an extra week to activate my new phones through another provider. $$$ They want your money...but they don't want to have to provide anything for it. If I was not a person who paid my bill, I could understand this behavior, but I pay two weeks in advance every month... I now understand why my boss dumped T-Mobile for his company... DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS GARBAGE CELL SERVICE!!

    I am a disabled veteran. I've been with TMobile since 2015. I added my family to my account including my spouse and 2 sons. Everything was fine and then our oldest son graduated high school in 2018 and joined the Air Force in late 2019. Sometime in 2020 or 2021, my son called us wanting to be taken off my account so that he could establish his own account. So we requested that he be taken off of the account. At the time, he was stationed in Los Angeles while we were here in Texas. Everything was done over the phone. TMobile understood what we wanted & removed my son from our account and created a new account (**) for him.

    The problem is that when they created the new account, instead of using his social security number, they used mine. Keep in mind, me and my son have the same name so I believe the TMobile representative thought my son was me (At least that is what I would like to believe as anything else would be nefarious). So this whole time my son's account was setup under my SSN and I had no knowledge of it nor could I manage it or receive updates regarding it. If I would have gotten any type of update on this acct, we wouldn't be here.

    Fast forward to now, my son overextended himself financially and the account was cancelled. Now all of a sudden I'm getting calls from a collections agency. But my account is in good standing. Once I found out about this other account, I reached out to TMobile for resolution and they are telling me that since the account was valid and had usage and in my name, there is nothing they can do. The customer service people are pleasant but all are telling me that they can't help and neither can their managers. WTH! I am so angry right now. They want me to write to their legal department and wait for reply. So I'm writing this first so every potential/existing customer will know what can happen to them at TMobile. You need to make this right! This was your mistake, fix it. I've been a loyal customer but am now considering leaving.

    I honestly don't know where to start here but I will say one thing. The foreigners that they hire to answer our calls are very pleasant. They have ABSOLUTELY no idea what's going on but they are kind and respectful. Big money making companies like this don't hire American workers. They hire foreign help because it's a lot cheaper and they can eat lobster on the seventh day. However when us little people are paying an outrageous phone bill 4 phones to be exact and an internet bill in my case. We're not appreciative of uneducated customer service. Again it's not their fault... it's the big guys... lounging in their big beautiful homes with their shiny cars in their 5 car garages with not a worry in the world other than waking up tomorrow to look at their profit margin because they hire foreigners in other countries to answer our phone inquiries.

    I'm certain there's not one American in the bunch because that might cost them an extra few dollars. I am so not against any race in this world. But when rich ** prey upon the hard working and perhaps maybe not even the hard-working but they are sticking it to us regardless. Maybe you yourself wouldn't pass up the riches but damn... have all of the moral boundaries left this Earth???? These immoral CEOS, AHEM...EXECUTIVES ETC ETC hire the folks from other countries (because ** the American workers. They cost too much).

    Those dudes and dudettes are kicking back in their million dollar homes with their feet up just happy as clams as the unemployed recently laid off patron with just enough to pay their cell phone heads into the metro store. Or perhaps they're having issues with the 5G Gateway such as myself and the fact that one of my four lines will dial but not actually call. Or the fact that I can't log in to my Gateway 5 account because they're saying that my email Isn't valid which is the only email I've used for the past 10 years.

    Then they will hook you up with a very sweet individual from another country because that's how they get richer. However as sweet as that individual is they have no freaking clue what you're talking about because they never received any training. Because training them would have cost those big lobster eating guys and girls a lot more money. Hence our struggle to get any results and hence their 1.4 Google rating review.

    I have been with T-Mobile for yrs, never had a complaint till now. Back at the end of July my husband and I went to get new phones. My husband got the new Samsung and I pre ordered the Fold (which didn't drop till 8/11). We also got all the accessories for both. On 8/1 my husband's phone and all the accessories came in. On 8/11 I went into my T-Mobile app to see when they were going to send my Fold. It said completed 8/1. So I called T-Mobile, the person I talked to was confused also. It showed phone delivered, but had no ESN number or any identifying information on the phone.

    I was told a ticket would go in and I would be reached out to in the next 5 to 7 days. On the 8th day I reached out again. Spent an hour on hold while they were trying to figure stuff out. Finally got on the phone with a supervisor who told me to be honest no one had even looked into my ticket. Mind you while they are investigating they are holding my 750 deposit and I can even go get a new one. Here I am still waiting for someone to contact me on this issue and still nothing. Beyond upset with how this whole situation is being handled.

    Do not do any business with Sprint or T-Mobile. Sprint robbed me of over 500.00 dollars. When attempting to get a refund I was lied to several times. Calling customer service is the most painful task anyone can do in a day. Every time you call, you have to start your story all over again and the wait times can be astronomical. Are they not taking any notes about the 30 times I have had to call call? And dozens of attempts later, still not resolved. With a company this large, you think they would be obligated to refund their customers with money that was wrongfully charged/billed. Months of calling and getting transferred from one customer service rep to another, I have been left with nothing but wasted time and a bank account that is short over 500.00. They have even admitted their mistake in overcharging me but still no resolution. Please don't waste your time and money.

    If there are any issues you will be promised everything and anything, but you most likely will be left with frustration and regrets. I have always been friendly and kind and always paid my bills on time for years. But to them that doesn't matter. They would rather lose a customer than resolve a wrong doing. To this company, YOU DON'T MATTER. What a shame. I am looking for assistance on how to file a formal complaint but of course SPRINT and TMOBILE are not assisting with that either. Even after acknowledging that they made a mistake in overcharging me for hundreds of dollars.

    I switched to T-Mobile for the switch and keep with a promise they will pay whatever I owed on each phone. I have two phones. I received only payment for one phone with the other one pending for 3 months now. They turn off your phones after just 8 days overdue and charge you $20 per line to restore it. This included the car (it’s just like Life 360) gadget which they offered for free. So $60 total!!! After 8 days!! Customer services is lousy too with it going overseas and having a language barrier. Once I pay this bill off I am switching!

    Let me start at the beginning of my service, I signed up online and arranged to pick up our devices at a local location. I picked up 2 devices and numbers. I was informed that I could get a 3rd line for just an activation fee, I declined as I did not need and didn't want to pay for 3 monthly. Set up my phone and my other half's also Samsung A 14's with monthly payments for each. This would have been April of 2023. All good at this point. The next day we set up our online portal and discovered we had been charged 2 separate activation fees and that the7 had opened the 3rd line I declined firmly. The 3rd line was in a name I had never heard of, but when my wife called me that number also came up a name I didn't recognize. Called the location I bought them at and inquired as to why the names were wrong. They handed me a line about it was the old owners name for that number. I asked if it could be changed and then got instructed on how.

    Then I asked to speak to the gentleman I had dealt with when I went in. When he answered I reminded him of who I was and inquired as to why I had an extra charge and the 3rd line. He responded with, "Sometimes if you don't shut the computer it happens when the next agent uses it." Okay I could accept that, so I asked would he fix my issue as I didn't want the line and didn't need the activation fee. I was told they could not do anything. I had a contract (I don't). He said he could not reverse any of it. I was upset and asked who could, I don't know customer service I guess. So I called the number and spoke to 4 people before getting annoyed. The 4th person said, "We can't help. Go to the local store." I explained they had sent me to this department. "We can't do anything here," I was told. I asked to speak to someone above this agent and was told that they would credit my bill the almost $40.

    I said I need it as I had just started a new job and was a little in the rears. Apparently not their problem either. Keep in mind it's only been 3 days as a customer. After that it was a bit better, service was fair, phone kinda slow but okay. Second month (May 2023). I'm not crazy about the quality of service since regularly my conversations were crackle but okay maybe cheap phone. Then I get a phone call one day from my sister, who asked had I just asked her who she was in response to her text. I told her I had not received a text from her at all and definitely hadn't responded since she's had the same number for over 20 years. I sent her a screenshot of our last conversation. I was confused. She sent me a screenshot of her screen and sure enough someone had received and responded to her text. I had no idea what was going on.

    Now a couple weeks before this happened my wife and I got into a huge argument because I had texted her and she had responded rudely and not normal. I asked her why and she said she didn't get a text nor had she responded. I disagreed because I had the texts, she was adamant and so I said okay something's wrong and I was sorry. When it happened with my sister she was validated and I was a jerk. I called T-Mobile and was told that this situation was not even possible and when I objected they sent a text, asked if I received it and I said yes. The agent said, "There you go then" and hang up. Smooth service except quality wise for a while again. In July 2023, we got up in the morning and my wife put her phone on the charger because it had gone dead in the night.

    We had errands to run so we got ready and charged her phone. It was on the charger, the charger that came with the phone for about an hour and a half on the arm of my recliner. It has a spot so plenty of air flow. When she picked it up as we got ready to leave she said, "I can't unplug it." I told her to be careful not to break it and she handed it to me, I also could not unplug the charger from the phone. She tried to unhook it while I had it in my hand. No force or pulling but the charger wire broke. I looked at it and the C end was still in the charger port and the reason is it had melted the phone at the charger port. Melted the end right into the phone. So once again I called T-mobile. I explained the situation and that the phone wasn't even 4 months old. I didn't get coverage on them at purchase but the agent at the store proceeded to tell me that without it they wouldn't cover repair or replacement.

    I said there was no way I should pay or have to get insurance as this was obviously a device defect and not an accident. The agent said, "Well you're outside the 90 days." If it was over it was less than a handful of days. Still this defect was not my doing. He interrupted and started telling me that the insurance I needed to purchase might cover it. I explained I was telling him what had happened as my house could've burned down had we forgotten it that day. He said, "I'm just telling you I can't help you." I asked who might be able to help and he responded, "I don't know maybe customer service" and hung up on me. I never used bad language or raised my voice during the call. I called customer service and talked to a very helpful young lady, who explained how it might be covered and how to avoid a large charge in the future with coverage but she let me know when and how to do it inexpensively and use it to get different devices.

    This was because by now I don't want either phone due to concern over safety. She transferred me to tech support and the first agent I talked to kept saying he could not hear me and I was breaking up. To this I responded that's funny as I am on the device and service they provided. He continued to not hear me and hung up. So I had to start this process all over. I called again and got the rudest agent I have ever talked to in my life. "We won't cover your phone. I can't help you," this agent kept repeating. I tried to tell her that I understood but could she help me get to someone that could not. She said again, "Ma'am I can't help you" and hung up. So in 3 months I have spent hours on the phone with this company and as a new customer that leaves a rotten taste in your mouth.

    This time I've already been on the phone over 3 hours and explained it more times than I could count but I called back and got a nice agent who tried to help by getting me to Samsung (they are worse than T-Mobile). I thanked her and talked to them. Samsung is a story for another day as I should have had a 1 year equipment malfunction warranty. In the end I had to send Samsung my phone to be inspected so they could repair or replace the phone. Then after that they would decide if it was covered and fix it or replace it. I sent it and a few days later got an email Samsung was charging me almost $75 to repair it. I'm not exactly sure how you fix a melted charger port with the part stuck in it but okay I'm not a phone tech. Besides I had had enough and my wife had been without her phone for over 10 days, so I attempted to use the provided link to just pay, against my better judgment.

    The link did not work. I tried repeatedly for a couple of days and called to pay it as well. No one I could get to would take the payment. I got transferred 5 times one day and 8 the other. I was so angry at this point. Another day passed and I got the phone via FedEx. When we opened it they had literally sent the broken phone back with broken charger end still attached. Tmobile and Samsung are both awful money grabbing companies and as soon as I can I will change service and I will never own a Samsung anything again either. As of this moment I have a broken phone that they sent back, so I had to purchase my wife a different phone on another network but ad I still owe on the broken one I can't cancel.

    Currently the matching phone I have barely charges and if I'm lucky I can get 20 percent in 2 hours (replaced the charger with a new factory one). So for the last 2 weeks I have had my phone die every time I turn around, it's useless l, I am typing now because it's sitting on the charger as I do bit it hot so I will end by saying: IF YOU NEED SERVICE AND OR A PHONE AVOID BOTH T-MOBILE AND THEIR PARTNER IN CRIME SAMSUNG. They both should be fined or restricted. This behavior is both unprofessional and dangerous.

    We signed up for 5G internet with T-Mobile in Dec 2022 with a guaranteed for life $50/month rate. We were also offered a free 1 year subsription to Paramount Streaming. The streaming never happened because autofill added a old email address and we didn't catch it before submitting the required form for the trial Paramount subscription. After a lot of phone calls to both Paramount and T-Mobile we were just told "sorry" can't correct the email. So that subscription never happened. Then, 5 months after using TMobile 5G it was like someone just hit a switch and our decent service went down to almost nil. We went thru the standard "replace the tower"...Didn't work, then went thru the standard "replace the sms card"....Didn't work and in the duration Tmobile notified us they were raising our guaranteed $50/month rate to $55/month unless we authorized direct withdrawal from our bank account which we never allow.

    We finally canceled their service and asked for a refund of our just-paid monthly renewal because we barely had internet sevice for 2 months while TMobile screwed around with replacement towers and SMS. We've been down this road before and know the game, it's always the same with the internet providers, but you go along hoping just once their solutions might work. It's a crummy system that is not up and running well and the consumer is the guinea pig who pays to test the system. Believe all the negative reviews you are reading about TMobile 5G.

    December of 2021 we changed from ** to T-Mobile. Before changing we talking in depth to the workers about service, customer service, pricing, and many other things. We were told many untruths! Such as when you call customer service the reps are regional and you get the same team, in our area they are out of Oklahoma City. (I have yet to speak to anyone in the states, and it’s been almost 2 years and many calls.) They had specials to move our account over and they would pay off the phone we were bringing over, I did not have to anything to make that happen but it would take 4-6 weeks to get the credit card.

    The phones were not working and I had to contact customer service that night (a man from India), there was a language barrier but we worked through it. The people that “helped” set up the account and sold me the new phones did not set it up correctly. 3 1/2 hours later and the rebates were put in with their help because it would not let me do it and we were waiting on 1 of the phones to start working but the other 2 were working. The next day we had to call back to get the 3rd phone working, as it still was not working. 5 weeks later I still have not received my “rebate” to pay off my old phone. I stopped by a store to check. The only thing the people in the stores can do is sell you stuff, they can’t even set up the service. WOW. However a very nice women there called and talked to another man from India. He said the rebate did not go through.

    It would have been nice for someone to have told me there were issues so we could have figured out what was wrong and fixed it. The women in the store explained that someone from customer service had sent the info in. There was such a language barrier and he was so hateful that the worked asked to speak with his supervisor. He refused. It was about 10-15 minutes before we were about to get someone higher up the chain on the phone. The situation was explained AGAIN and finally the supervisor was able to figure out what the problem was. The people that sold me the service and new phones did not do it correctly, they mixed up the phone numbers and the phones they were attached to on the account so the rebates would not go through.

    The rebate amounts had changed in the meantime and they refused to honor the original amount, it was much less. So it did not pay for the phone. However, it did not really matter because I did not get the money anyway. The service that was supposed to be really good at my house never got better. Many chats (Not sure why it’s there. You can’t do anything through it you have to call.) over the next year and half and one phone gets 1 bar of signal sometimes and the other gets 0 bars. Sometime it shows SOS instead of signal (I never knew phones could do that). We have been told many many times they are working on the tower in our area and it will be done in the next 30 days.

    I went to a store because I was having issues with my phone. They were more interested in selling something than helping me. I’m still kicking myself for this one…. I listened to another of their sales people…. He told me if I signed up for the whole home internet it would help improve our cell signal, that it’s different that the cell service. The modem that he gave me do lose parts rattling inside, he said some of them do that. He opened the box turned it on, and it worked fine. He said I have 15 days to try it out and it I don’t like it I won’t be charged. I flat out asked him what I was going to be charged if it did not work and I had to bring it back. I asked him several times. He assured me nothing. I took it home and there was no signal. That was on a Friday.

    Monday I took it back to the store. They took the modem but said I have to contact customer service to cancel the service. What the heck! So I went out to my vehicle and chatted in to stop service. They said I have to call in for them to cancel service. So I called in as I was driving home 30 minutes later, after they tried to sell me something else, the service was cancelled. Then I get a text when it’s time to pay my bill and they are charging me for service. So I try to chat in, again they can’t do anything for me. I have to call. So I call. After being on hold for over 20 min I talk to a very hateful person that lectured me on I should called in to cancel the service when I returned the modem. After her 2nd lecture on it I became very agitated. She finally said she cancelled the service and refunded my money.

    2 weeks later I get a text on a saying that I’m late on a bill and it needs to be paid. Then my service is shut off. So I call them and I’m on hold for almost 20 minutes before a woman from India gets on the phone (do you remember I was told someone from the call center in Oklahoma City would be answering from customer service?). I explained the situation. She said she could work out payment arrangements for me to pay the bill. (Oh I forgot to say that I’m on auto pay, it all comes out each time I’m never late!) I explain to her that I’m not going to pay for their mistake, especially when I have tried to fix this several times. She puts me on hold several times to talk to a supervisor and each time comes back with wanting me to pay more money.

    I asked to talk to a supervisor 5 times and an hour later I talk to someone else that is supposed to be a supervisor. I explain AGAIN what’s going on. She wants me to pay even more money. I told her, "I will not pay for your mistake. I do not owe anything other than my normal bill." She puts me on hold and comes back with I can just pay the fee to turn everything back on and that will be all I need to pay (I don’t owe them anything at all, my bill is up to date, I have not been late, and they want me to pay them money and raise my monthly bill at this point). I’m very frustrated and in the verge of tears at this point.

    The “supervisor” tell me I need to take a break go drink some water and calm down. (If you're wondering that had the opposite effect on me). We hung up. She called me back 3 hours later and wanted me to pay $150 to get the phones turned back in. Again I explained that I was not going to pay for their mistake. Eventually, she agreed. I asked for it in writing. She changed the account so it showed me in the app that I was going being charged extra and I received a text. I’m done with T-Mobile and as soon as the phones are paid off we’re are done! OH BUT WAIT!!! It’s not over yet! I received a text yesterday about my upcoming bill…. You will never guess! They are trying to charge me for turning the phones back in AGAIN!!

    I cannot locate where to contact the corporate office, all I find is the number to their so called customer service. I was told in May that the tower by our house (you know the one that they have been working on for almost 2 years that is going to be upgraded in the next 30 days), will have limited service for the next 24 hours and they get it online. We had no service at all for that day. We had a text the next day that said it was up and running. We still had 1 bar of signal sometime. 2 days later we received another that they are upgrading the tower in our area and service may be spotty or limited. We had no service at all. The next day we were back to 1 bar sometimes. Even in the Tulsa metro area the service is spotty and we very seldom have 4 bars of signal and that is only for a short time. I don’t understand how they get away with it.

    This is in reference to T-Mobile and Assurant cramming their customers. On May 30, 2023, $731.61 was debited out of my Chase Account for my T-Mobile cellphone bill payment of which 299.66 was for a fee. The fee was a non return fee for not returning a cellphone device. I have been charged this fee previously on Feb 2022 and was assured by T-Mobile it was a mistake and wouldn't happen again. So on May 30 when my autopay went through, I was very upset to see it had happen again. The phone was shipped on April 10, 2023 and received by T-Mobile on April 17, 2023. I receipt of this transaction from USPS.

    I called T-Mobile and I was told I needed to call Assurant since they are the ones who charged the $299.66 return fee. I was also told by the T-Mobile rep that text messages and alerts would have been sent to my phone letting me know that I was going to be charged a 299.66 non return fee. I received no messages to my phone line. I also told the rep there were no messages sent to my phone or on the phone line executing the insurance claim. She assured me there were messages sent and I assured her she could look in her system to see there were no messages sent.

    I was told that I had to call Assurant if I wanted to dispute the charge. So I called Assurant and was told they received the phone on April 17th but it was never scanned in. I was told I would receive an account credit in 1-2 billing cycles. I told the rep that was unacceptable. I didn't pay them in bill credits, they took cash from my account. I asked for a refund and she said she couldn't do it. I would receive my credit in 1-2 billing cycles. I asked to speak to a Manager and his name was Dan or Dave. The Manager at Assurant told me and it is also in T-Mobile's notes that there must have been a glitch in the system. He repeated this lie several times. He could not understand why I was charged when the phone was in their position since April 17th but it wasn't scanned into the warehouse and he didn't know why.

    I told the Manager I wasn't going to wait for my money when the charge wasn't an authorized charge and I wasn't informed of this charge. So the Manager at Assurant called T-Mobile while I was on the line to see if I could get my refund sent to me directly. I was told by the T-Mobile rep that I would receive my refund in 5 days and that she would call me to follow up. No one called to follow up. The credit went to my account. On June 3rd, I filed a complaint with BBB and also filed a dispute with my bank as well. Chase Bank returned 299.66 to my account while they investigated the charge. On June 6th, T-Mobile refunded my account as well.

    I got a call from John ** on the Executive Response Team that my account was now past due and I needed to make a payment. I made a payment of $282.55 to bring my account current. So I essentially paid an unauthorized payment twice. I have receipts from the previous fee they charged me on Feb 2022 and now again May 30, 2023. I spoke to a T-Mobile rep around June 15 because I was upset that Chase sent the $299.66 payment back to T-Mobile. I asked for my refund again and I didn't receive it. I was told by the rep and I have a screenshot of the conversation: "The reason why you get charge for non-return fee before you return the device is because your bill generated already before you sent back the device." I told the rep that's cramming you can't do that.

    I am not some new disgruntled customer. I stuck it out with T-Mobile since June of 2005. I came back from a deployment to Kuwait and T-Mobile was one of my first stops. I was in Kuwait a year and I just wanted to connect with my family. I have stayed through a lot of bad times but this was unacceptable. I have been a customer 18 years and on Autopay with 12 lines. I paid on time every month! The service is bad, calls are constantly failing and they do nothing about it. The government just keeps fining them, no accountability.

    I just submitted a review for a horror experience for an on-line trade-in that didn't work. A T-Mobile supervisor just called me and is going to adjust my account! He was awesome with understanding and trying to regain my trust as a T-Mobile customer. He was successful -- I am very happy.

    Original Review: Aug. 12, 2023

    I have been a valued T-Mobile customer for 6 years now, and I just went online to upgrade my cell phone. I filled out everything online about my existing phone (perfect condition) and selected the phone option for my new phone, signed a new contract for 24 mos with the explanation that once my old phone was received, they would allow up to $350 credit back on my bill. I received my new phone and went to T-Mobile to present my trade-in (along with original box), and I was told the trade-in wasn't reflected in my order! I was shocked. They said the only option was to send my new phone back and do the order all over again to get the credit which is ridiculous. Called Customer Care -- same story. I am very upset since apparently something went wrong with the T-Mobile online purchase. No regard given to a long-term customer either. Watch out if you do anything online with T-Mobile.

    I changed from Verizon to TMobile couple months ago. I have the cell phones and the internet with them. Day 1 I’ve had terrible service, dropped calls, no TV, even when I’m calling them to complain they can’t understand me. I’ve spent hours on the phone with them. They told me they changed my tower, I needed to wait 24 hours and it will be fine. Reboot and reboot and reboot again.

    I was suppose to get my phones paid off to Verizon, they finally got that straightened out. I was supposed to get a 50$ refund towards my activation, 200$ for my devices. None of those things happened. At this point I’m 260 for service that I did not receive about 6 hours of my time, and God knows it’s been irritating.

    After buying a new phone in May and haggling with the manager for a better trade-in, I was promised a credit. The credit didn't show up the following month so a phone call was made to the store. The manager explained he had forgotten to apply said credit but would do so the next month. July came around, no credit. I went directly to the store and after a "discussion" with the manager, a credit was put into place for August. Verification of his intention was provided to me. Sometimes a face-to-face is necessary to avoid further miscommunication. I was satisfied to see the credit applied on August 1. What started out great, then became rocky, turned out to be satisfactory experience.

    Two to three months ago, I ordered T-Mobile internet service with the understanding that I would not be billed for that internet service until I connected and activated the modem/tower. I still needed to pay off my current provider before I switched over. Soon after I received the modem/tower, I received a bill charging me for service that I had not even switched over to yet. Hadn't even opened the box yet. So, I called and immediately canceled the service.

    There was no contract, so it was fine, but again, going through the whole process of setting up service with the specific understanding that I would not be billed until I connected the service but then being billed anyway was a considerable waste of my time. Had to call and waste a lot time to find out that the first customer service representative was completely incorrect in what she had told me. She was nice and was clearly trying to be helpful, but she clearly did not know what she was doing.

    About a month or so after that, I returned and ordered new cell phone and internet service. (I had paid off my cell and internet ahead of time this time.) This time they billed me from the time I placed the order with them over the phone, not when I actually started using the service. I ordered cell phone service on July 16, 2023; however, I did not receive my cell phone sim cards until 7/18. I activated the phone somewhere between the 18th and the 20th. The confirmation of delivery was dated 7/18/2023 so I did not even have the sim cards to activate service. When I looked at my bill, it prorated the service starting on 7/16/2023, the date I ordered service, but not the day I actually switched service over to them.

    So far, I am not unhappy with the service or the price of the service, but I personally find it unconscionable that T-Mobile would charge me for service before I am even using it, in the first instance, and before I could even possibly use it, in the second instance. A few dollars here and a few more dollars there adds up for them over the thousands if not millions of customers that they may have. Just charge me a fair price for the actual service I use, please.

    I had to call and have an extensive conversation with a condescending customer service representative in order to reduce my bill or credit the money back (however, you want to look at it). But why should I have to spend my time and go through the hassle to get back what should not have even been charged in the first place?! Extremely frustrating! Extremely wasteful of my time! So, just beware that your bill starts from when you are actually enjoying the service. This reminds of some other large corporation billing schemes I seem to recall occurring over the years. It is just not right in my opinion. So, again, I just encourage consumers to be aware of what you are paying for.

I purchase four new phones and lines in December 2022. T-Mobile didn't credit me for a phone trade in. I called to correct that in February 2023, spent 2.5 hours to get them to acknowledge the error and I thought it was corrected. Issue didn't get credited to my future bills like customer service said it would. I wait a few months and try again to get the credit corrected, again it took me over two hours to get the issue logged. Customer service told me it would take two weeks to process and they would call me back. I did get a call back and they told me the credits would start on my next bill. I waiting to see of that actually occurs.

    As for the seven months where they haven't given me the credit customer service said they would pay me a lump sum credit at the end of 17 months. They made an error and have overbilled me for seven months and now they are going to hold my cash hostage for an additional 17 months. Absolutely insane. I would suggest to anyone to just purchase your own phones and go with another carrier. The special offers for phones are full of ** that only benefits the company. I'll end service as soon as my contract is over. They don't even have a method to log a complaint with management. I would say they are well aware how poor their customer service is and just don't want to hear about it. They just want their money. I really feel sorry for anyone that works for them.

    We have been trying to work with T-Mobile for over 4 months for them to return credits for service that we were mischarged for. When we initiated service a "dummy" line was created for the Digits feature. Due to poor reception and even worse customer service we decided to switch providers. We had called T-Mobile to ensure all lines were cancelled. We were assured that the account was now closed. Since that time we were charged for 2 full months of service. Turns out that the rep "forgot" to cancel the dummy line, likely to retain the commission. I had contacted customer service to remedy this situation and return the money to our account.

    Customer service at T-Mobile is very well-trained on how to be fake, nice actors. For the past 4 months we have been given false promises, "personal guarantees" of callbacks, told there would be trouble tickets made, etc. No one keeps their word. This seems to be T-Mobile policy. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who just "pay to get rid of the issue" - maybe this is the tactic of T-Mobile. Annoy and anger people enough so that people give up and take their financial losses.

    The local representatives are no different. They are commission-hungry, then drop you like a nuisance the moment there's an issue. They refuse to handle customer service issues and will push you to customer service over the phone. With customer service, if you demand enough they will allow you to talk to a supervisor, who is more skilled at fake promises and guarantees.

    Above that they will not allow you to talk to the manager above them. It is also their policy that you cannot know who they are or have any contact information to follow up with them. You will talk to someone once and then never again, so there is no accountability for them lying. STAY AWAY! T-mobile is full of thieves. I feel horrible for their employees as I'm sure many of them are working in an unethical job in order to pay their bills. May their tainted souls be saved.

It couldn't have been further from the truth. There was a point in time I couldn't even send text messages. They kept telling me it wasn't their service it was my iPhone. Went to the iPhone store and was told my phone was good. Then I spoke to a represented and was told that yes their coverage was poor in my area, but don't worry they were in the process of upgrading the tower that serves my area as we spoke, and would be done within a week Guaranteed! She would even go as far as to call me daily to check in. I never received a call back.

    When I called back to check on the progress on the tower I was told there was no plans to upgrade the tower! I went without phone service for nearly a year from my home. I had to drive over a half mile to use it. Finally they agreed to let me out of the contract so I could go back to my former carrier. When I went back to US Cellular they couldn't get into my phone as it had been locked. I couldn't use my phone at all. Not even retrieve my contacts.

    Finally after writing the Attorney General's office of consumer affairs I got their attention. I was able to switch the phone I was buying through them back to US Cellular we continued to pay for the phones. We received a final bill ( at least that is what it said on the top of the bill) We paid the $14.92 then we receive another bill for $152,00. we paid 100.00 on that just trying to get it cleared up, because customer service would not listen to what I was telling them that we paid our final bill. The next month I receive a call from a collections agency for the remaining $52.00 when I inquired why it was turned over to collections, I was told because I didn't pay the entire bill.

I received a call from a Manager (in California) that said he listened to the call and wanted to reach out to help. He said the $200 gift card was already expired when the rep offered it to me so he said he would take $50 off my bill for the next 4 months. Well, to my surprise the $50 that was promised was not reflected on my bill.

    I called twice today and was on hold for 45 minutes, I was then transferred to another department and had to explain myself all over again. I waited another 29 minutes for a Manager to pick up only to tell me he was busy and would call me back. My internet is not working on my phone nor is my Printer not connecting not to mention that the Internet keeps disconnecting. If you are considering T-Mobile for your Internet I would reconsider.

On 07/19/2023 I contacted T-Mobile and eventually had both T-Mobile and Assurant on the phone where Assurant told T-Mobile the old phone arrived in the warehouse 05/15/2023 but for some reason was not scanned (confirmed in T-Mobile's transcript). I requested a refund immediately since the warranty company confirmed the phone was returned.

    Since 07/20/2023 I have received texts from T-Mobile that my refund request was denied! Now I am up to my 4th call into customer service to which a T-Mobile supervisor stated the report has be escalated to finance but refuses to give me a phone number to finance. Meanwhile T-Mobile still has my $696.44 with no assurance that I will receive my funds. I did everything that was required of me by T-Mobile and still T-Mobile has given me nothing but dialogue followed up with texts from T-Mobile stating "Your T-Mobile account is not eligible for a refund".

    I purchased a new cable for my cell phone one month ago at the T-Mobile store in Boca on Military Trail. One month after, the cable was defective, and I returned it to the store. The store refused to accept it back and made me purchase a new one. That is T-Mobile's policy.

    Dear T-Mobile, We switched over to you from Verizon. Biggest mistake ever, you suck and your tech support is even worse. It has been a total waste of time calling you for help. What’s worse than spending 30 to 90 minutes on the phone to get the issue fixed with NO success, is getting a text message afterward saying: “Please rest assured that I addressed all of your concerns.” If you addressed my concerns that would mean you were able to correct my concerns or assist me in that. You most certainly did not! Add insult to injury is that you give no way to dispute this fact.

    You sold us phones with assurance that our phones would work in our area, it does not. Then tech support says you can send us a booster for free, when we said, "Yes please," you said, "Oh we don’t do that anymore." What kind of con are you pulling. Saddest part is that my issue should be an easy problem to fix - Among other issues I have to deal with, who would have thought setting up my voice message would require multiple calls and tech support not able to help with this. Trust me - I tried everything, followed directions, everything before I called support. I talked to TWO people who could NOT figure out the problem.

    Bottom line: DO NOT MOVE TO T-Mobile, their customer service sucks, and tech support is useless! I can’t use my phone, my phone calls when I can, are spotty at best and tech support can't fix the problem, nor can they help me set up a voice message. REALLY T-Mobile?

Using AX and receiving the autopay was one of the reasons I switched to T-Mobile. I have spoken to the store (where I made the switch) and to 2 different Customer Service agents who all agreed that it was wrong but there was nothing they could do about it. I resent that T-Mobile changed their policy mid stream which in effect will increase my bill by $20 unless I pay from my bank.

Yes, we were without an office phone for 11 days. Our rep abandoned us and would not return any correspondence. He was all over it when he was perusing our business. They have yet to deal with the issues they caused or assign us another rep. T-mobile signed us up, took our money and now they are giving us zero support.

    When you go to any T-Mobile store video record the employees what they said. Sometimes they mixed up and when you tried to follow up with what they said they said we have no proof. Also, they give hopes up for 3 months until they tell you, "I'm sorry we can't do anything about it." Just a heads up maybe ask them for a proof and let them sign on it for what they said. Always keep a proof for the future. We tried tmobile for the first time before we bring all our families into it. Apparently with what happen to us today lose our hopes and have explain it to all our families in here and Hawaii. They are willing to move to another services too.

    If you want to be with tmobile that's fine but record what they said to you. They have a contract for you to sign and you don't have anything from you to go against them when they mixed up their explanation. Just wanted you to all know it happens to us and we don't want you all to have the same problem and upset about it like we do. Now we are regret of using it.

    It seems as T-mobile needs to train their techs better in troubleshooting issues.

The device itself has no issues nor is there any outstanding balances. All the requirements have been made to do the transfer but yet they say they can not figure out the issue. On my last call with them which was a day ago they informed me that I would have to wait another five days so that they can put on another ticket so they can try to resolve this issue once again.

    I did ask the tech why it would take so long when they should have all the resources they need after all its locked to their Network. The reply was that they have a different procedure for customers who buy their phones through T-Mobile than those who buy them through a third party which who they still partner with. At some point they will have to be held responsible.

    On May 10th, 2023 the Store Manager at 89408 offered an $800 discount on an upgrade to iphone14 for my phone and $400 off for my wife's SE. After drawing up the lengthy paperwork we took our phones and went home. The next billing cycle I noticed equipment charges of $899 on both lines and contacted Customer Service through Chat. Each time the representative assured me the problem would be resolved and I would get a call back. Scott failed to call back, Cindyjane failed to call back, and Alex (Supervisor) basically blew me off and sent me back to the store. Going back to the store, and they contacted TMobile and we're told that the order in May was not done properly and that I needed to upgrade to the MilitaryBusines Plus plan ($15/line increase or $540/year). The representative offered no relief except a significantly higher monthly bill.

    We went to the Corporate Store in Reno to seek some resolution. The individual at the door would not give us a manager, but he said he would handle it. He spent a lot of time on his ipad "writing an email" to the resolution department. Here is the problem, through no fault of our own, your representative manager made an offer that TMobile would not honor and is now expecting me to pay an additional $540 per year in order to obtain the previously made offer. Typically an offer made is honored when it is one of your representatives. We have the then-Assistant Manager, now Manager verified the conversation so we are not trying to cheat TMobile. I've been told the "system" will not permit any adjustment. There is not right.

    We have brought TMobile 10 additional family members over the past few years to sign up and all of us will walk to a new Mobile Service. As of right now, it looks like I have to come up with $1200 to get away from TMobile because you will not honor your promises. I have no idea if the representative in Reno (Paul) actually sent in anything to the resolution department or not as he did not copy me on the "email"....

    I signed a contract and terms of service which included a promise to “never raise my rates”. T-Mobile said I would get a $15 monthly discount if I allowed them to automatically charge my credit card each month and we both agreed. Now T-Mobile has UNILATERALLY changed their terms of service (for which I have not agreed to) which requires me to give them my personal bank account information for them to access my bank account or I will be required to pay an additional $15 per month for their services. Bottom line here at the end of the day is my monthly cost did get raised by $15 and T-Mobile is getting that money. I guess they didn’t “raise my rate” but by unilaterally changing their terms, is now getting more of my money. Seems illegal or at least unethical to change terms I didn’t agree to and then bill me those extra costs.

    T-Mobile should grandfather current customers and apply the new terms to new customers. Tried numerous times getting a customer service rep to elevate my complaint to management but I haven’t received any callbacks so no resolution so far. Consumers need to know that by voluntarily giving anyone their bank account info, if a mistake, even accidental, happens with that vendor (T-Mobile in this instance), you have NO recourse with the bank. The vendor has to make all required corrections and your bank account is affected until the vendor fixes the problem they created.

    I have simplified the details somewhat for brevity. I called to order an iPhone with a great offer on a trade-in. The very friendly agent upsold me home internet and said he would throw in a free Samsung tablet, the only attached string being an additional $5 per month for the added cellular service. My cellular bill was a plan that cost $55 per month, and the internet service was to be $30. With a very generous trade-in credit of $830, I was pleased with the deal. My total monthly bill, which includes a $20 per month protection plan and a senior discount was to be $97. The agent sent me to DocuSign to sign the paperwork and almost immediately asked me what was taking me so long. I told him it was a lot of paperwork to read, and he urged, “Don’t read, just sign.” That should have been a red flag.

    Over the next few days, I began to get emails that did not look at all like what I had been told, so I started calling. Over the next few weeks, I talked to at least a dozen different agents, all of whom seemed very kind and helpful, and all of whom assured me that I should ignore the emails and my online account details. They said they were still processing my trade in and several promised further deep discounts on my plan to make up for the confusion. On one of these calls, I informed the agent that I had been approved for the federal Affordable Connectivity Program, which pays internet providers $30 toward the invoice for selected people. The agent kindly informed me that while T-Mobile does not honor this program, he would issue a monthly credit to my account for a minimum of $30 (probably more, he assured) to make up for it. Now I was expecting a bill of around $67 monthly, and I was very pleased.

    Today marked 27 days from my purchase date, and I once again made one of my routine calls to hopefully get reassured once again that all of the promises made by a dozen agents were, in fact, true. It turns out nothing I had been told by any of them even remotely resembled the truth. My plan was not $55, it was $75. The tablet (a worthless 4G 32 gb and very slow and glitchy device whose operating system and included apps already maxed out its memory) was not free and required a $20 per month 5G contract. That’s right. They required me to get a 5G plan for a device that can’t even access it! My total monthly bill? $137, which is a whopping $40 over the price that included the now-cancelled protection plan, and that’s not even accounting for my alleged $30 internet credit. This is the bill for a single line, home internet, and a tablet I can’t even use. There was no internet credit, no special offers. Not. A. Single. Thing. Was. True.

    So I asked the agent if I could just cancel everything and return it all, since I’m still within 30 days of purchase, and she informed me that the return period had expired two days ago. So a dozen agents consistently lied to me for 27 days, and the moment it’s too late to return anything, they drop the hammer and tell the truth. This is no coincidence. T-Mobile is a planned and carefully orchestrated criminal enterprise. I promise the moment my contract is up, I will never do business with them again.

First of all the monthly bill I pay on one phone is not as advertised on the mail I had received. In the 4 months I've had with tmobile I've only had headaches and issues. My husband account got suspended today because we forgot to pay it. I could not log in to the website account because it kept asking for a code that had to be send via text messages but guess what? Since the line was suspended I was unable to receive their own text message with the code I needed. So I had no option but to call customer service and I waited for 30 min.

    When speaking to the representative I told him I already made a payment today but I don't know how much more I have to pay to activate the line. He continued looking at my account and gave me the the past due balance and said how much can you pay today, I told him once again I already paid then he said okay let me see what we can do to activate the line. Then he tells me, "I'm gonna send you to a automated line so they can help you do a payment arrangement on your payment due" and I told him once again, "I already paid my regular payment. How much do I owe?" But he said he couldn't help me with payment arrangements. When I got transferred to the automated system it just told me, "You don't qualify for a payment arrangement. Goodbye."

    I have been dealing with T-Mobile since March 2023. I cancelled my service with them and moved to AT&T on March 16, 2023. I called T-Mobile, cancelled my service, transferred my number, paid the balance due at that time. On May 6, 2023, I received a bill from a collections agency for $1074.00 (which should have been $697.00 for phones I still owed on). I spoke with someone at that time, who stated that I had equipment I hadn't returned for 300.00. Ok. So I go to pay the bill and it's actually $1,714.84. I try to get someone to explain to me why they added on almost 700.00 to my final bill and why they would send one amount to collections and not the full amount, if I owed it. I was told (after driving to a T-Mobile store because no one could talk to me without verifying my identity) that I owe the additional amount for equipment.

    I asked again what the $1074.00 was for. I was told it was for March and April 2023. I said I didn't have service in April and I paid the bill in March in full. Very rude and confrontational about this balance. I work in Medical Billing and we don't send someone to collections until we have a final balance amount to send. This has been nothing but a hassle and I have made 5 trips to the T-Mobile store to try to straighten this mess out. If I were you, I would steer clear of them. AT&T told us the day we switched that they can be very hard to deal with, but I felt after 25 years with them, and having been a consistent good customer, that my experience would surely be different. I was paying $335.00 per month to T-Mobile for service and will be paying $120.00 with AT&T. It's ridiculous.

After signing up for the more costly plan, I learned that some of the features I had been promised were not included in that plan; they were only available on the Go5G Plus 55 plan, which would cost $70/month.

    I went back to the retail store three times, spoke with the sales rep and the store manager, who both assured me they would "fix" the problem. I later found out they had changed my plan to Go5G Plus 55 without my permission. I then phoned T-Mobile and spoke with two individuals (one being a manager) and was told the only thing they could do for me was to switch me back to the Go5G 55 plan, without the previously promised features.

Beginning of June I received a text message from T-Mobile "Thanks for your payment"... I checked my account and they took the monthly fee of $50 out of my account. The geniuses at the store somehow forgot to cancel the phone-number that was associated with the Internet-Box. I went back to the store, and they said that they fixed it and a few days later the $50 were refunded.

    So... now it should be OK, you think... Think again... Today I received a) a new bill from T-Mobile and b) a letter from the Debt Collector AllianceOne because of $50 I allegedly owe to T-Mobile. In my 15 years with Spectrum, I NEVER had such a trouble like I have now with T-Mobile. Yes, they raise the price every year, the customer service sucks, but they don't play such games - and the speed is really good and the Internet service is reliable. SO, be VERY careful with T-Mobile.

    Worst customer service ever! I have switched from T-mobile to Mint mobile. I have received several messages from Mint mobile saying that my number has been transferred to Mint. However, T-mobile has it locked, there's no balance and they told me 24-72 hrs to get it unlocked. I called back and it's still locked. There's no reason for my phone to be locked! They have given me every excuse in the book. It was very easy to port my number to them from my first carrier however, the transfer isn't going through and I still have my primary number on T-mobile and I can't use my phone at all!! They have the worst customer service they lie to their customers.

    I'm paying for a new service that I can't even use. However, I'm sure if I said I want to go back to them my phone would be working again very quickly. I would stay away from T-mobile at all cost. I have even gone through Apple and they agree that it's a T-mobile problem. I was on the chat with a T-mobile rep and he even confirmed that my phone was still locked from their end and there was no remaining balance because I paid for my phone outright when I went to T-mobile. My daughter was also transferring her phone and it went right through. I would never recommend T-mobile to anyone.

    If I could give them no stars I would. Tmobile is very deceitful and malicious when it comes to new customers. Before I switched over to Tmobile from Sprint I was in the process of getting a free phone upgrade. I spoke with a Tmobile representative to inquire on their plans when I was advised to not get the free upgrade with Sprint that they will provide me with the same upgrade once I switch over. Of course once I switched over I realized that was a LIE. I do not like to be deceived or given false information under the pretense that they will get a new customer, a sale or lock you into a plan for a specific time before you leave the service provider.

    There are not any benefits for existing Tmobile customers unless you upgrade a plan or trade in your existing phone. Tmobile will say whatever they need to say to get what they want which is not good for business or honest. I am in the process of leaving Tmobile for a honest service provider that cares about its customers not just looking to make a profit off us.

    I got a T-Mobile data plan, no contract, cancel anytime. The offer included a free tablet (a cheap Alcatel one) which I didn't need. The sales rep did NOT explain that the tablet IS on a contract (24 months) and cancelling the service entails paying the remaining "balance" on the "free" tablet. Although I can return the unused tablet, they will not budge. They also declined to check the recording (from 7 months ago) to confirm that there was no mention of this contract. Either sneaky by design or they need to train their customer reps better. I sure hope someone will take them to court for this type of misrepresentations.

    If there was an option of giving this Co. zero stars, I would. Long story short, this company deserves to be in jail. They never deliver what they tell you. They are highly unreliable. Which left me stranded on the side of the road, with no signal, less than 30 miles from home, in 100 degree weather, and unable to call my wife or the roadside assistance I pay for every month, or even call 911.

    From: High speed internet to just making a simple call, good luck with that. Hell, I think the old Pony Express, or better yet, tying 2 tin cans together with old boot laces will probably get you connected better and faster than T-Mobile would. If they tell you they are a 5G co. then I would tell you that you don't have to pay taxes anymore and that all your student loans are forgiven. My garbage TMobile phone is really a buggy 4G mess. Worst of all, when I called them to ask if they were going to expand coverage to the busy highway I was stranded on (an area other companies have provided service to for years), I was told no they would not, even though in the past they had told me they were expanding coverage into this area. Now I have to go buy a prepaid phone from a different provider, just to keep it in the car when I commute through this area. At least until I find a more reliable company, which I plan on doing very soon!

    I will just touch on important points because I could write a novel about this company and I have only been with them since December which leads me to one of my complaints. You may wonder why I don't change wireless carriers if my experience has been so terrible, well here is why. I was told that for signing up one of my lines would get a free phone. We didn't need a new phone because the line they said gets a "free" phone already had a pretty new phone. The guy didn't mention this phone locks me into a 2 year contract that if I don't fulfill I have to pay around $1000 and that amount never decreases. Like if I were to cancel after a month or if I were to cancel the day before my 2 years was up I will owe $1000 even though the phone won't be worth that much by then.

    Complaint number 2. Before signing up with this company, I called at least 3 times to verify I would have coverage at an address I stay more than half the time. Every time I was told literally the same thing. They said "Oh yes! You will have our best 5G coverage at that location". Not only do I have absolutely no service (can't receive or make calls, can't see missed calls, can not receive or send texts), but I lose service within 30min of my 1hr 30min drive. I called them a few times a week until about 2 months ago when an employee was actually honest and confirmed what I already new. That there is no coverage at all near or at that address.

    Before speaking to this person I was lied to by every customer service rep. I was told things like "they are working to update the tower now and it will be done by Feb 20". I was told beginning Feb 20 they are going to start updating the towers. I don't know why everyone I spoke to mentioned Feb 20 but it is almost July and I have no service. One customer service rep found out what all towns I had to drive through to get to my location and ironically just every tower in those towns happened to be being worked on. I tried to cancel my service or lack of service I guess I should say which is how I found out I have to keep paying for a service I do not get, for 2 years or pay $1000. They would not let me return the "free phone" to get out of this contract. I find this odd that I have to pay them when I don't have service. I don't think I should have to honor this contract on my end when they didn't honor their part of the contract.

    Complaint 3. I was told I get a discount because I am a nurse. It is a first responders discount and being an ICU nurse for 21 years, I have saved a lot of lives, but of course we don't get discounts for doing our job. Anyways, with me knowing I am in an unappreciated field, I questioned the guy selling me the plan. I said "are you sure nurses are included? Nobody appreciates nurses" and the guy told me and I quote "here at T-Mobile we do!" Big lie. Now my bill increased $57 and I still don't have service more than half the time.

    I could go on but I think that is enough to help consumers make an educated decision while choosing a wireless provider. It is also important to note, on their keep and switch you have a short period of time to pay off your phone yourself, get the number and device unlocked which takes about a week, and submit all the paperwork T-Mobile requires for verification and the clock starts ticking as soon as you hang up with them. Not when you actually can switch to T-Mobile because your phone is finally unlocked. You also have to pay your first TMobile bill before you even have service' then you have to beg for your reimbursement that they tell you takes a couple of months or more to process. Then you finally get a virtual card that is accepted by nobody, however, if you're willing and have time to set aside at least an hour (which is the average time I've been on the phone anytime I've had to call them) they will send you an actual card. Ok I am stopping now!

I contacted T-Mobile multiple times and they said they had to approve the gift card but that I'd submitted everything properly. They never approved it. I finally got angry after many months had gone by because, again, I would not have paid for the upgrade but for the gift card offer. **, Joshua emailed me that he would be my "direct point of contact" so I reiterated the whole question again (keep in mind I've spent hours on the phone with useless customer service).

    Twice now in the past year (I have been with T-Mobile since Jamie Lee Curtis was a spokewoman for Voicestream) I have had issues with T-Mobile. First of all, their connectivity is ok, not an issue. It is with their retail stores and people. First of all, I went to T-Mobile in Aug of last year, in the Everett Mall location, which no longer exists. I wanted to get my grandchildren a tablet with a data plan. I have 8 lines on my account at this time. They say NO PROBLEM, free tablet and 10 bucks a month. Great deal! So I get it. I see 15.00 per month and a 5.00 charge on my bill. So I call them and they tell me that the 5.00 is because I don't have auto pay for that last line (you only get a discount for 8 lines) and the price for the tablet is 15.00 per month. They gave me a little credit for the autopay, but not for the tablet.

    Secondly, the same visit I believe they saw my Revel 4 phone and asked me if I wanted a free upgrade. I said sure, free is free. So I now have a 9.00 bill monthly for my free phone, since the promo they supposedly gave me ended 2 days prior. And they took my old phone and won't give me a new old phone, if you know what I mean. So they made their issue my issue. They offered to give me half a credit for the phone, but since it was apparently my issue I told them I pay my debts, I didn't want anything for free and that I and ALL numbers on my account will NEVER buy ANY T-Mobile retail EVER again, EVER, and I made the representative put that in the conversation.

After calling back in to resolve this no one cares or is doing anything about. They are the absolute worst company and for their ‘employees to tell you they know where you live and will hurt you is inexcusable in my opinion. After a mth of pursuing this I’ve yet to hear anything back so obviously T-Mobile is ok with this behavior and that is disgusting.

    They may be less expensive but it’s not worth being mistreated and never being allowed to speak with someone in your own country to actually get results.

    In February 2023 T-Mobile promised they would recover my previous phone number and that I needed to open a new account with them to do so. Opened the account under their buyer's remorse guarantee program and set up my account. They gave me a entirely different number than the number to recover. After several days of them not able to recover my previous number as promised, they continued to insist that they could recover it and not to leave the company. I told them numerous times that if they could not recover the number to just cancel and close the account because I already had a phone and honestly just needed that specific number.

    After about 2 weeks now after the initial charges to open the account, I was then charged for the first month bill for an account that I never used. I called T-Mobile several times a day and throughout these 2 months on agonizing calls lasting over an hour at a time to just cancel and close the account! Most of the representatives pretended to be managers/supervisors whenever I asked to speak to their manager. Some of them even told me that there was no manager available. Finally after the 2 months passed, was able to speak to a manager and she told me that my money should have been refunded due to T-Mobile's buyer's remorse and that I would get a full refund and that they should know the policy.

    Needless to say it's 3 months later and T-Mobile has since reported and turned my name and social to a collection agency for almost $300!!

Then they tell me I have to wait for a return and refund or pay a double fee and be refunded later if I want to order new phones before the first shipment is received. Either way by the time the phones are returned, the promotion has ended. So I say, "Hey, just close my account." Phones get refunded, fine. But my account? Not closed. After I had been told it would be closed. Received a bill for 302.00 for an account with no phones, no phone numbers and no service. Keep in mind I can't even log in because I have no phone number.

    I call, they tell me I have to go to the store to be refunded. I go to the store and the person there calls customer service (in India apparently) and they explain, no they cannot refund my bill. It must bill another cycle and then I have to call back, again and request a refund. Lost my patience, told the man that this is absolutely ridiculous. Flee this company.

"We'll credit $150 for bringing in the watches"- bait and switch. "We have internet available at your address"- bait and switch. "We'll pay up to $500 for your trade in"- scam/bait and switch. The number of times and number of hours spent calling customer service, starting over, submitting receipts, and clicking broken email/text links is absolutely unreal. 2 watch lines still don't work and I am dreading calling back- I've already held and spoken to them twice for this. They made good on NONE of their promotional offers. My family has been robbed.

    In the middle of April I cancelled 2 of the 3 lines that I had. I spoke with a supervisor who assured me that she understood the task and everything would be ok. Nonetheless they canceled all of my lines and I went without service and a possible write up for missing work. The most they claim to be able to do is a $20 credit. Not to mention all the other times that my phone isn’t working and they claim it’s the towers “ALWAYS” being worked on. The absolute worst company. If I could give 0 stars I would.

    They were supposed to send me a phone. I told them that I could come pick it up because I live right across the street and they said no and gave me a tracking number to see where my phone was. They told me my phone should be here the next day, it's the next day at 9pm and my phone is not at my door. They pushed the date back to Monday. I tried calling again to tell them I could pick it up but they hung up on me and I went up there. They said they can't do anything about it.

    I spent 3 hours on the phone with a salesman that convinced me to leave Verizon and go to T-Mobile. With that said I have moved all my services over to T-Mobile. Had issues with cell phone but they were resolved. The major issue is I have a landline which was told it would not be a problem to port over to the cell service. I have been going back and forth with customer service and supervisors for the past 5 days of having service for 11 days. Spending almost 20 hours, multiple supervisors saying the account number is wrong. Managers saying they would call me back. Every time I call it is the same thing, wrong account number. So we got Verizon on the line with a manager and verified all the information. Was supposed to get a call back on 5-17-23 from a manager. Of course no callback. I am disgusted that we are as consumers subjected to this.

    I am currently paying for 2 services because someone is dropping the ball on both ends. To me this is a scam on Verizon's end maybe because they do not want to lose a client, but as a consumer, we need to save money these days on our phone service. I am at the end of my rope with both of these companies and still, after 11 days can't get a resolution. I have called Verizon again and they state there is no one to speak with. I keep asking T-Mobile for upper management and they keep gaslighting me. I asked for upper management call back and no response. I find it appalling that a service brags about customer service and both companies are a waste when it comes to that issue.

    After a positive interaction with T-Mobile, Wes B increased their star rating on June 3, 2023.

    Updated review: June 3, 2023

    The corporate office got involved. They got a hold of the people that was dragging their feet on refunding my money. It turned out to be an outsource contractor company not T-Mobile themselves. Maybe they will find a new one. Who knows. I have now been reimbursed all my owed to me. I have changed them from a one star to a four.

    Original Review: May 16, 2023

    I was with T-Mobile for 14 years. I had left and went to Verizon. T-Mobile was having a special so I had went back to T-Mobile approximately 2 years later.
    I went on their program keep and switch with four lines. They told me they would pay off what I owed on my Verizon lines up to $800 per line.

    The total came up to $2400. They said I would have the money in 10 days.

    It has now been 2 months, I still do not have my reimbursement. I had to pay off the $2,400 on the four lines of Verizon. So I am out of pocket $2400. Three different times T-Mobile has told me the check did not go out but they have everything they need, we are processing it now, you will have it in 10 days. 2 months later nothing. I still do not have the reimbursement. Every time I call I get the same answer, the same response. Yes you have $2,400 coming for the four lines. They never processed it so I'm processing it now. I Still don't have a reimbursement.

    Beware of this company with the keep and switch program. You have to pay it out of your pocket and they say you'll have it back in 10 days. Do not use your rent money on because you will not get it back. I'm in the process of getting ready to go back to Verizon. T-Mobile has messed me around long enough. They are never sending the money in my opinion even though they keep saying they will. One thing I can say is Verizon never lied to me. T-Mobile lies to me every time I call them.

    If I called them today they will tell me the check never got processed but I will do it today. Next week they will tell me the same thing. This is not the same T-Mobile that I left two years ago that I was with 14 years. Beware and stay away is my advice.

    T-Mobile store located on 35th Ave and Thunderbird Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85053. For those of you who are still dealing with this store and not getting anywhere with your requests, concerns or complaints, don't bother wasting your time expecting resolutions. He will continue to hold off on issuing you any credit or refund for as long as he can get away with it. Don't go through the long and tedious experience I had to go thru. Save your energy and contact the customer support chat line on TMobile's Facebook page. They call themselves the highest Tier levels. Their team is called T-Force. The reps on this site are not from outsourced countries call centers. Just to summarize my painful experience with this Store Manager?

    Even after I told the sales associate to stop setting up my account with TMobile, they still went ahead and proceeded to do so without my knowledge. The sales rep took my card and charged me activation fee, left me on my own while he attended a customer who just walked in because she wanted to buy 2 iphones. I specifically told this guy that I have a dinner appt so I'm kinda in a hurry and I wanted to have my existing number from Boost to be transferred to my new phone. That was our agreement so I trusted him with my debit card. I sat there and waited and waited on this sales rep for a very long time, almost 2 hours. He abused my patience with no regads to my time being wasted waiting on him.

    I had to postpone my appt to a later time because it was now closing time at 8 pm and I lost it when the sales rep told me that I should come back the next day and bring the phone with me so he can finish the transfer on my number to the phone. I reminded him that's not what we agreed on. I told him to take the phone back and to issue me my refund asap and walked out the store with nothing accomplished on that visit. I gave them till 04/09/23 before I followed up on my refund request and was told by the manager that he is denying it since it was not their fault that I changed my mind. Mind you, the Store manager not once asked me to tell him what really happened that night when I chose to cancel the entire process. He was not interested on my explanations.

    From there it was a lot of hours I put on trying to get my money back. I called TMobile's customer care and was told they can't help me since they can't verify my identity without my PIN number. I told them I wouldn't have that information because it was the store who created my account and they never told me they did that concealing their decision to push thru ion creating my account online without my permission. They explained to the Reps who called them at the store that they were just going with the flow. They didn't respect my decision. My TMobile account online was set up with a payment option to Autopay and they didn't care that my card was charged again via Autopay and caused my funds that I had to pay my May rent to be impacted by that transaction. So as of today I haven't paid my rent, I'm so late with late fees stacking up.

    Nobody can help me until I saw one of the reviews online about going directly to T-Force in Facebook. After 11 days of chatting online with several reps, I finally got a response from a manager. She is now working to getting my funds refunded back to me. If that Store Manager happens to read this review. I want him to know that he is busted for his deliberate intention on giving me the run around. He could have just let go and issued me the refund asap, but he took me for a ride and now everyone knows the stress and frustrations he inflicted on me mentally. I gave that Store a chance to do business with me and my business and patience was not appreciated by that sales associate, He and his manager needs to reevaluate how to treat their customer better and be respectful of other people's time.

    I was a Sprint customer for 30 years. I was forced onto T-Mobile. Their service has been nothing but a permanent spike in my blood pressure. I have no service at my home.

    I've spent the last two years battling with T-Mobile about this. I was able to escalate it to some "customer service escalation manager". She told me (basically) "Gee...it must suck to be you"...that TMobile can't/wouldn't address my issue...and that I should take up meditation or something. **?!?!

The service in stores is no better. The employees seem to focus on customers who will drive up their commission more, or sometimes they don't help you at all until you make yourself noticed.

    Be very cautious about online chat to obtain new cellular service through T-Mobile. Agents do not know their product lines and give misleading information regarding values for trade in devices. After two and a half hours of chatting with an agent I asked when the value of my trade would be determined and she stated at the time they receive the pre-application. I ended up filling out the application with my personal information and I submitted them. Asked what the value of my trade in devices came in at. At this point the lies unraveled.

    I informed her I had screen shots of my question and the answer she provided. I asked for her direct supervisor. She supplied me with customer service. From there the run around trying to get to speak to a supervisor continued for another hour before they just placed me on a long hold and disconnected the call. With the ethics of the sales team and the lack of concern from all parties, customer service to sales to activation I would recommend using extreme caution when considering changing to this carrier.

    T-Mobile Representative lied about several things just to get the sale. Free cell phone and no contract. The cell phone is only free if you stay with the company for 2 years. If you leave before 2 years then you owe for the free phone. Mastercard to bring your own number. They did not specify virtual card. Told you can you the Mastercard to pay your 1st cell phone bill. That you will receive your rebate in 21 days. But in reality it is a virtual card and receiving it in 21 days is a joke.

    Spoke with several customer service reps before one finally said it usually takes 8 weeks to receive your rebate. I feel like I was told anything just to get the sale. I am very disappointed. The way I found out it was not a free cell is when I tried to void my service to go back to my old service. I then owed for the free phone.

    I have been with Sprint and now T-Mobile for well over 20 years! I have gone through thick and thin with them. I AM NOW LEAVING! I called trying to rectify the fact that my voicemail no longer connects for the THIRD TIME! The next thing I knew, they cancelled my entire account after I said I was thinking about going to another carrier (for them to understand how horrible their service is - especially in light of me spending over 20 hours collectively on this issue). My young daughter is on another continent alone and was left with no cell service, creating a safety issue. Further, I have had contact with their engineering department repeatedly resetting their configuration for the voicemail service. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY PHONE!

    Lastly, for me to need to answer the same questions at a minimum of 5 times each call, then often get disconnected and need to start again is the worst customer service I have ever received from any company except from one that was about to go out of business. Unfortunately, this is where I think T-Mobile and Sprint are headed. I will switch carriers before I buy any other phone, wasting my money to connect to a bankrupt company (ethically bankrupt and perhaps financially as a result of losing customers from the worst service ever).

After another hour, They realized that they had not forwarded my phone number from my phone to my watch. Still did not work the next day. Called customer service and she realized that they had set up 2 accounts for me and my devices were on 2 separate accounts and not connected to each other. They had also messed up the billing, which she corrected.

    Next day I connected my internet. It kept buffering. Called customer service and he had to bring down the speed. I am 1 mile away from the tower, and the speed is not very good. I still buffer. Very poor quality product. I was told it might be because they are having trouble with another tower, so all those customer have been assigned to my tower. The store in Wildwood Fl is being run by kids, who have no respect for customers and no investigative skills. They jump on the first thing they find without looking at the whole system.

I called back again on Wednesday, because I still had little to no signal. I was told was told that the outage was fixed and they were working on positioning. They told me they would call me back. On Thursday they had never called me back so I called again. This time I was told that they had repositioned the tower so it was no longer pointing toward my house and that nothing could be done about it. The technician also told me that I may look want to look into a different carrier.

    Customer service representative blatantly lied just to get a sale. Everything she told me was not true. I was out money and no phone. I was specifically told I could bring my phone over to T-Mobile and that T-Mobile would pay off my phone. And that I would receive a new SIM card in the mail in a couple days. And once I receive my new SIM card to call customer service back to have the phones transferred over and that the process was very easy. And was also told that I just needed to take my bill with my current provider to my local T-Mobile store so they could get the information needed in order for T-Mobile to issue payment to payoff my phones. Absolutely everything this woman said was a lie.

    When I got my SIM cards I called to port my lines over to T-Mobile this process was a complete nightmare. In order to have my lines transferred over my phones had to be paid off and it would takes weeks to do that so here I am with no phone. I returned the equipment and now they will not issue a refund as I was told by a manager. No one knows what they're doing at this company. You get different answers every time you speak with someone. It’s pathetic. Buyer beware!!

    My deceased mother had T-MOBILE service for over 20 years, I also had a line on the same account. Although I paid the primary account holder in full for the device T-Mobile refused to issue a pin to unlock the device for use with another carrier. Although the primary account holder has been deceased for 2 months T-MOBILE states "the primary account holder needs to call in to reset the pin". I paid for my device in full, am I expected to pay double? It is not my fault she wanted to pay in payments instead of paying the whole amount up front. T-Mobile is a horrible company who won't even take care of the accounts of customers that stayed with the company for 20+ years. Why would they take care of yours? T-Mobile is a horrible company.

    Updated on 03/11/2023: I don't like pointing out people for what they say but I was at the store the other day to resolve a problem & the lady who sold us our contract said she couldn't help us anymore & when I said I had sent a report to you she just smiled & said big deal. The store we dealt with is at the Giant on Spring Garden St.. So there you have it.

    Original: We went to T-Mobile on Black Friday & order new phones & internet. The girl that took our information told us that our phones would be 600.00 total. Our internet would be 30.00 which it is & our daughter phone would be 800.00 total & she was to get a free watch & ear buds & our total bill a month was to be 229.00 a month. First month 268.05.. The next month was 153.36. They said they took the watch off. The next month was 243.00 because the manager gave us a credit. This month is 285.97. I keep calling them & they tell me it is taken care of. They take the bill right out of my account & I want to know if I can stop that. I have done all I can to take care of the problem. Thank you.

    In November of 2022, I transferred my service to another carrier and didn't have the time to call them and cancel the family. I called T-Mobile the next month, December, to cancel the family plan plus requested for a refund for the remaining of days we didn't use. The T-Mobile representative happily told me the family plan has been cancelled AND the refund has been processed. I was refunded. In January, I received an e-bill for December month, and realized they haven't cancelled my service. I reached out to T-Mobile representative again and asked for the refund and cancel the family plan. Again, they happily refunded me and stated that they have cancelled my family plan. The family plan is finally cancelled.

    Fast forward, two months later, March, I got a bill from the mail for the months of November and December plus late fees. I called T-Mobile again to dispute this. I accepted to pay the November month but not December. They said my service isn't cancelled in December; Of course, it wasn't cancelled that month because they didn't cancel it for me after they said they have cancelled it. I asked to speak to their leadership. They transferred me to their leadership but I had to wait over 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, they finally responded and just hung up on me.

    If you're reading this, you know who's at fault here. They know they're at fault and don't want to refund me and just hang up on me. This tells a lot about the company and its leadership. They're just bunch of liars, dishonesty, deceitful, and rude employees. Warning: stay away from T-Mobile at all cost. Their service isn't as good as they claim.

    I called T-Mobile several times trying to reach the rep that I spoke to and apparently there’s no direct number to the Outbound Resolution team where he works. I got nowhere trying to follow up and now have a phone I cannot do anything with. Even if I sold it to someone using T-Mobile, the phone would have to be paid off before they could use it. Not sure what the rep meant when he said I could do anything I wanted with it. Apparently, there’s much I can do. I would never use T-Mobile because of the deception at a time where you’re already under a lot of stress. This is now they treat their customers… terrible. Thanks for nothing T-Mobile.

    We have been customers with T-mobile/Sprint, prior being Nextel and other providers in succession for nearly 30 years. We have also been able in the past to reconcile issues with the provider. This is not the case now, as after apx. a week, almost all calls for technical support for the current issue have been routed to call centers in the Philippines. This is an issue due to both cultural, as well as language barriers. There is no option to speak with onshore technical support, nor does there seem to be any method of escalating a support call to a higher tier of support.

    The issue itself pertains to lost voicemails that my wife had saved on the T-Mobile voicemail system, some for over a year or longer. Primarily the lost voicemails that concern us are ones that she has been saving from her deceased mother. Her mother passed away last year, and while my wife never used a "phone app" to check, store or retrieve her voicemails, she utilized the T-Mobile voicemail system to check, receive, and save voicemails that were important to her. Approximately a week or so ago, she checked her voicemail, deleted a new voicemail and attempted to listen to saved voicemails from her mother but found that they were no longer there. They were the last way that my wife could listen to her mother telling her that she loved her.

    Repeated calls to T-mobile for support, message retrieval, or resolution have been maddening to say the least. Call center staff not understanding the issue, not able to answer questions regarding the location of the voicemails that were lost on their servers, not able or willing to escalate the issue to higher levels of technical support, or just disconnecting the calls are all of what we have experienced.

    We've never been told to utilize any other method of voicemail retrieval or retention, never been advised to "save" or lose them, and my wife has always used the save option to save these messages on their servers. WE WANT THEM BACK.

    I have had Sprint without issue for many years. Unfortunately, T Mobile purchased Sprint and it has been nothing but problems. My phone service is so bad that on 1/14/23 I purchased a new phone hoping that would fix the problems. Went to the T Mobile in Queen Creek, AZ. Upon purchasing the phone, I was told I would receive a $400 trade-in on my phone. What they didn't tell me was you only get $105 and the rest will be spread out over 2 yrs. If you go to another carrier you lose it. Next, when I was purchasing the phone, I was asked if I wanted phone insurance and I said NO a couple of times. He keep pushing it. Well he added it!! I have spent almost 3 hours this morning trying to get it removed and a refund.

    Next issue, I purchased a couple of extra item which I paid for upfront, however, on the paperwork they showed I didn't pay for the items and I am now being billed. Also, there were added charges on my bill that they never informed me advise of. After I purchased the phone, immediately my phone bill jumped up in price. I expected that. Now I am going into month 2 and they just emailed my a bill, which has jumped another $25. I started calling at 4:30 am, I was so upset. I had to call back 5 times because the call keep being dropped. That tells you how good their service is. What a nightmare and I look forward to finding a new service.

    I spoke with someone in customer service because my tablet stopped working and they told me that I was not being charged anything for my tablet. I rarely look at my bills because my bill pretty much stays the same at all times, however I did decide to look at it one day as I was reviewing my account because I was thinking about upgrading. I noticed the tablet was there as part of my current lines and I asked the rep at the time and they told me I was indeed being charged for the tablet. This tablet has not worked in about a year and I even purchased a new one this Christmas.

    I spoke with a rep who was very helpful and offered me a $50 credit towards my bill but she could not give me the full amount and she would have to escalate it to her supervisor. I also wanted to know about upgrading my phone to a phone that was more compatible with my Samsung or the watch itself. They never offer any deals for existing customers and as someone who has been with Tmobile for over 16 yrs, this is extremely disappointing. She asked to give her a week and she would call me back after she tried to see what she could do to help meet my wants/needs. She called back and basically said there was nothing she could do to help me and after I paid off my current watch I could upgrade to a new watch which is completely obvious because it would belong to me at that time and I could do whatever I wanted to with it. She never mentioned the other issue about the credit.

    I called the next day and spoke with another rep named Tiana and she confirmed that she did see the note on my account, but they would not be able to credit the other $70 even though they can clearly see there is not activity on the tablet for all that time. She did offer to be "helpful" in asking me if I wanted to make a payment on my account to avoid suspension but failed to tell me until I asked her that they would be a $10 charge for her to take the payment. I said no thanks, I'll do it later and hung up. Would you believe that another manager Ashley called back and I actually for a second gave them the benefit of the doubt and thought for a second they were calling because I was clearly not happy with the last conversation with Tiana, but she (Ashley) was actually calling to remind me yet AGAIN that I had a balance and wanted to know if I knew how to make the payment.

    Now this is after they texted me, I was reminded when I called in with a problem they failed to fix and then Ashley took it upon herself to call and remind me a 3rd time!! T-Mobile has really started to suck and they really don't do anything to KEEP the current customers happy, just to get NEW customers so they can hook them in with deals just for them to find out how bad they suck later!

    I had the worst experience with T-Mobile when I decided to switch from Metro PCS. In November 2022, I ordered 4 SIM cards online (family plan) worth $152.43. UPS claims they left the package with the cards in the lobby of the building in NYC. I immediately reported to T-Mobile I did not get the package on the day I was supposed to receive the package (according to the tracking number) and called a few times after that day. Every time I called T-Mobile customer service was extremely nice and guaranteed me they would refund me but they never did. A month later I still did not get a refund and instead I got a bill for the monthly service.

    That's when I found out someone activated one of the SIM cards and I could not even access the account because I did not have the code and or the phone number associated with the account. I had to go to the local store to validate my identity and only then I was able to suspend the account but I was left with the bill ($123.75). I called more than 10 times in total, and most of the calls last 1h or more. Finally, I was transferred to the fraud department and in order to file for a fraud claim I had to submit a police report. Since I am not currently in NY. I filed a report online which was completely ignored by the police and therefore, my T-Mobile fraud claim was never accepted and I had to pay for the bill ($123.75).

    As if that was not enough, since December I have been trying to dispute a charge for the month of October even though I only ordered the cards end of November. I called them 3 times for that and they said they will take care of issue (it is a system error), and I have to wait until the last billing cycle to update those charges and hopefully, I will be able to close the account end of this month.

    I heard T-Mobile has great coverage and I know people who have no complaints about them but I guess if you decide to join them, you should pray that you will never have an issue because it is clear their customer service (apparently nice) is not properly trained and don't know how to assist you. I don't understand why they activate the cards before shipping and why they did not immediately suspend the cards as soon as I called.

    I have experience with Sprint and Verizon where I've been with each over the course of 20+ years. And I decided to make the switch to Tmobile last May because the promotion they were offering at the time to trade in my iPhone X and Samsung S20 which would give us a monthly bill of $140. That was my entire reason for leaving Verizon. The onboarding experience as a new customer was horrible, and unorganized. They failed to inform of steps in mailing in our phones, and I was promised by the customer service lady that she would keep our promotion on. Months later my bill grew to $290 per month. After 1 hour explaining the situation, I get transferred to a "manager" which I think is just a different person with no authority.

    Fixes my bill somehow and ensures me that it will take a couple billing cycles to catch up. The next bill I see is still $290, and call again having to explain the original issue all over again about 45min of that. They again blame it on them not receiving our mailed-in phones on time and they cannot apply the promotion. So not only did I change to T Mobile for a promotion to turn in our old almost like new phones- we didn't get the promotion so the bill is double of what I was expecting to pay, and they kept our phones giving me a credit of $100 each for them! Which, is an outrage I would've kept my phones as backup or would've been able to sell for at least $500 each online.

    Their customer service reps use call scripts to sympathize with your situation by saying, "I understand I've been (your situation here) there and I know how disappointing that is, HOWEVER, blah blah we are unable to blah blah." They are not customer service they are corporate minions there to buffer all the upset customers in hopes to just get them off the phone not resolving any billing issues.

    A note on Cell Service: I thought the phone service might be good since their merger with Sprint, but I was proven wrong. It's still terrible dead spots everywhere and low signal. Verizon is still the king of excellent cell service. Now, I will happily go back to them and advise everyone else. As you read the comments they are true. Your billing will never be a consistent amount, and again you'll waste your time with bad customer service reps who seem incentivized to just get you off the phone with pandering call scripts.

    I had no issues until I tried to close my account. I had been with T-Mobile for a few years without incident. Then I found a great Black Friday deal and decided to switch to another service provider. Before I signed up for the new service, I called customer service and asked if I had any debt remaining on my phones. I was told I did not so I informed them that I would be porting three of my four lines to another service and the fourth line should be shut off at the end of the billing period (Nov 29th). I got my new phones and ported the numbers over without an issue but in the first week of December, I noticed that the phone line that I had asked to be shut off was still on. I called customer service and asked why it was still active. Customer service now told that there was no record of me asking for that line to be discontinued and it would be shut off on December 29th.

    I would be charged the full price for a single line for the month rather that the $15 dollars I had been paying for it as a fourth line. Okay, I guess mistakes happened. I was irritated but understanding at that point. Then to my amazement the line was still active in January. I called back and asked what was going on. I tried to convince customer service that I should not have to pay the bill because I had asked for the line to be discontinued. They argued that since I had used some cell data (which happened just because the phone was turned on) that I would be charged again for January until the service was closed on Jan 29th. Then after Jan 29th I started getting multiple debt collection calls per day from T-Mobile. This time when I called, I was told customer service could not even open my account since I don't know the pin number.

    The pin was never a requirement when I called before, I would always tell them that I didn't know my pin and then they would ask the last four of my SSN. They couldn't tell me what I was being charged for or why my credit card that had been on auto pay for years prior suddenly would not be charged for this final bill. They couldn't even tell me how much I owed so that I could make the payment. Now I was required to go into a T-Mobile store to prove my identity. They definitely should have warned me when I attempted to close my account three times prior that my credit card would not be used to pay the final balance and that I would need the pin to do that.

    Now I am forced to drive to a T-Mobile store because I have excellent credit and am afraid T-Mobile's pettiness and incompetence is going to mess that up. Of course the guy at the store is courteous and takes my payment and assures me that is the final payment and my account is now complete closed. But here it is a week later and I received a payment due letter stating that I have an outstanding balance of $11 due to late payment. This is absolutely insane.

They didn't even prorate my bill from lack of usage. Did nothing to assist me. Only continue to rob me of my finances for a service I wasn't receiving. A woman today stated the tech team offers compensation which again is something new. I told them. This company operates like a scam artist with deflections and sending customers from department to another. This is sad and This company should be ashamed of its business practices!!!

    Worst cellphone company out there. They charged my credit card without my authorization over $600.00. They gave me a cellphone booster over 8 years ago that of course does not longer work. The booster is obsolete, discontinued and but just because I switched to ATT they charged my credit card without my authorization. Their customer center is in the Philippines and their employees will keep on the phone for hours without doing anything about it. They end their phone call by saying "I will escalate it to the back office." Which means they can do crap about it. Extremely frustrating and just to think I gave them my money for over 10 years!.

    I have been a loyal customer of T Mobile for more than 15 years. I personally consider that the product that you offer to the market is a very good quality product, excellent and I could say that it is currently the best. Unfortunately, in my personal opinion, I believe that they have completely neglected the most important resource of any company, THE HUMAN RESOURCE, and it is thanks to this that I have made the difficult decision to move to one side of your company and find another that will help me. Offer something similar to what I have, basically, on the recommendation of the people you have in the customer service line. Here the situation presented in my account,

    A couple of years ago, I went to a T Mobile store to find out about a product that offered WI FI for my vehicle, due to a personal situation, I had to move for long days and someone recommended that I buy it, the employee of the the first thing he did at the store was to assign a new line to my account because it was necessary for the functionality of the equipment, although I went to the store to find out, I was not sure what to buy, so I decided to wait a while longer, the line stayed with me in my account and received a charge for it, after a couple of months I realized this situation, call 611 and there, diligently, they removed the charge, but the customer service agent advised me not to remove the account number, because at some point I might need it and that this would not generate any cost to me and it was done; It was in April 2022 when I finished paying 100% of the equipment on my account.

    I called T mobile to discuss buying one of the updated equipment, there a sales agent offered me the following: make a plan change, which allowed me to obtain an additional line, which comes with one of the simplest phones, FREE, in any case I was never going to use that phone, because I don't need it, but it gives me the other part of the offer, to get the latest model of Iphone 13, for each of the existing lines, at a rate of $1000 dollars each, but there was a promotion at the time that offered a discount of $700 dollars on the second device. The additional cost would be the value that would increase when making the change of plan $ 20 dollars a month approx. I thought it was a good deal and so it was.

    A few months later I realized that: they were charging me an additional line of $20 dollars, they were charging me $8.50 a month for a phone that was free, nothing serious, but unfair, because it was something different from what was offered. I contact customer service and with each call, things got worse, they couldn't find the promotion, they didn't understand what was happening, one of them told me that they were going to escalate the problem, they all told me, yes You don't feel good about this, you can close the account, but they didn't solve anything, until on the penultimate call, the agent decided to correct everything, canceled the two phone numbers, removed the payment for the equipment that was free and left me Knowing that they would punish me, for doing that, not allowing me to take promotions for the next 90 days, it seemed fair to me and I accepted.

    On the bill for the following month, the current one, I realize that after the changes, which would lead me to have a discount on my bill of $8.50, the value went up by $50 dollars, so I decide to call 611 again, there he answers me a girl named Laura, I explain everything to her, I let her know my annoyance and she, very judicious, clarifies me, for canceling the numbers, she charges me a proration of 25 dollars for each one, for which I did not pay anything, and that additionally I had to pay for the phone, which was free, but worst of all, when I canceled the lines, I lost the $700 dollar promotion discount on the phones I had purchased, so finally my account was going to increase at $30 dollars a month. She let her know of my disagreement and she, very serene, like some of the previous agents, recommended "if she doesn't like it, close the account" and that is what I am definitely going to do, CLOSE THE ACCOUNT.

    In summary and to finish, for trying to fix a simple mess of $8.50: I earned a charge of $30 dollars that I am not going to accept, I must cancel the value of the equipment in full $1500 dollars, I have to go to a lesser quality company, Tmobile loses a customer of 15 years and an account of $ 250 dollars a month, plus all the accounts of my family members, my partners, my close friends, my employees and acquaintances, who as their employees they did with me, I highly recommend "CLOSE THE ACCOUNT IN TMOBILE". all this because of a poor training of the customer service staff.

    In Feb 2022 I purchased 2 sim cards from T-Mobile in an effort to switch over to their service. My current provider would now not allow. I informed TMobile. I also did not seek refund for money spent on sim cards. In November 2022, I found out that TMobile had been charging and had collected over $650.00 from my credit card. I informed TMobile. They refused to refund. I've since spent an abundance of time and effort to resolve. (3 months plus). I finally received a partial refund, which did not cover the illegal billing.

    I, at that point, resigned myself to accept the loss. Now, to add insult to injury, TMobile sent a collection letter demanding payment for $540, which is more than the credit to my card. I have called T-Mobile customer service over 10+ times and explained situation. Several times a customer service agent requested my personal banking information to process a refund. Although, I found this strange, I gave the info. Never, received any promised refund. Everytime I requested to speak to a supervisor or legal department, I was put on hold, but hung up after one hour. I have now decided to report this to the BBB.

    In early December I discovered that if I signed up for in home internet I could get it for $25/month, no strings attached. I travel to Texas in the winter and needed a dedicated internet service for my use instead of sharing it with others in the place I stay. I went online and spent over an hour getting it set up. Because I was getting ready to travel I had the box sent to another address I have where I was going to prep for the trip south. It showed up, I took it out of the box and nothing. It would not power up. I called an expert and that's where the 6 week circus began.

    Looking back now, having talked to so many 'experts' both account and technician experts I can easily see the pattern of deception either by ignorance from poor training or being instructed to just tell the customer what they want to hear regardless of how much truth is behind it. I will never trust a T Mobile expert again. I have talked to a variety of people in Colorado Springs and the Philippines with the off shore visits the most discouraging. When I called in to let them know that the box wouldn't power on I was told that they don't just do exchanges but I had to handle this like a warranty claim (WHAT?) and that only a technician can do that.

    I got my first visit to the Philippines and it was a joke. I talked to so many Philippine based people that I can't remember if this was the conversation with the barking dog or the yelling baby in the background. Regardless I knew I was dealing with a very unprofessional person who had no clue about what 'customer service' meant and I wasn't disappointed in my assumption when we tried to get a replacement. After all of the 'high' tech questions like 'did you plug it in?' we finally got down to ordering a replacement. She couldn't figure out how and had to confer with another resource. When she finally got the order through an email popped up on my phone. It was an order confirmation from T Mobile but it was being shipped to an incorrect address. When I told her this she struggled trying to fix it not able to cancel the original order and finally got some help overriding the ability to make a new order with the correct address.

    Since I was only going to be at the new address provided for 5 days and this was Friday she guaranteed it would be there with 2nd Day Air. Thinking the conversation was over we parted. A few emails later, both orders were being readied for shipping ???? I kept watching the link over the weekend to see the progress and nothing was moving so I called again on Monday. This time the expert in Colorado apologized all over the place and 'guaranteed' he would fix it. He didn't. He couldn't find the orders in the system. They were 'stuck'. Somewhere between that call and another one the orders had been found and both were shipping both arriving after I had left that location. Return tags were emailed and I had family pick up the two orders at addresses where I no longer was and send them back. Interesting enough both showed up a week late on second day air.

    I left Minnesota where all of this occurred and headed to Texas where I wanted to use the home internet. I was advised by yet another expert to take the box with me, go into the T Mobile store and they would easily exchange it. When I did they told me that they tried that once and 'corporate' wouldn't allow the exchange because it was an online order, something the expert should have known. So now, instead of having a working unit waiting for me in Texas I would have get on the phone again. Two weeks of service already lost.

    I tried again calling the expert and once again she wanted me to go through the technician. After a long call, going through everything, a replacement box for the original showed up. Before I even opened the box I thought, how is T Mobile going to disappoint me today. On track they did just that by sending a box that once again would not power up. Just for verification I took it to the local store and ask them to power it up - nothing. Because the replacement that was sent was only the box and no cord the store person tried a different cord - nothing, One more call to the expert. It had been six weeks since I bought the first one. I have logged over 10 hours (I kept track) listening to the same crap over and over but with different stories and different suggestions but always a 'guarantee' that the expert would stay with me until it was fixed. None did. I heard so many statements that turned out to be dishonest.

    Experts were contradicting what others had said and some even told me that another expert had told me something that they shouldn't have because it was not correct. It finally got to the point of where I refused to talk to anyone in the Philippines because it was always a roll of the dice that I could understand the broken English and in all situations the conversation started from square one working off of a written list of 'what to do next'. I worked hard to finally get an account management expert to get me to a supervisor, this time via chat. When I got one and I asked if he would call me he asked me stay connected and he would call in 3 - 5 minutes. I waited, finally getting a call. It wasn't him, it was a lady in the Philippines. She told me that he had instructed her to call me and she had absolutely no idea what was going. Another lie.

    After I got back from the T Mobile store I called to cancel my T Mobile service. I got an expert who seemed to be savvy about not only what was going on with my account but with the situation. He asked that I try one more time. He pointed out where all of the experts before had made a mistake or told me something that they should have known better to say and again asked me let him try one more time. Because I need internet connection where I am for reliability I figured why not see where this goes. It may or may not show up and it may or may not work.

    This 6 week journey is just one more instance of dishonesty and deception. I have never in all of my life experienced a corporate culture of not caring what is told to a customer. Some were lies, some were just blowing me off, some were just not knowing because of poor training. Professionals don't justify the ineffectiveness of their peers by calling them out or apologize for someone telling me something that was dishonest. From the very beginning of working with T Mobile over a year ago I have been lied to repeatedly whether it was why I was experiencing bad data service in an area I was told was great, couldn't get the consistent service I paid for with another home Internet account or excusing away why my phone was consistently shifting from T Mobile 5G to ATT with two bars in an area that was supposed to be all T Mobile. It's a pattern and speaks to a very poor business model that I won't have anything to do with soon.

I would be lied to by one CSR and told I was lied to by another CSR, only to be lied to by the next CSR.

    After verifying what my final bill would be, I then received a bill for over $300. I called and they stated I wouldn't have been able to be told I owed the additional $300. What is that? How can a company provide service and factual information if the CSR's can honestly tell you what you owe? The absolute final straw is I verified I would not be auto-billed after my final bill. T-Mobile stole this money out of my account without authorization. T-MOBILE ARE NOTHING BUT LIARS AND THIEVES!!

To be sure to transfer insurance over to the new line and cancel it on the older line. This never happened now they won't insure my phone that got switched to the new line. Meanwhile I paid for the insurance on the new FREE phone for the past year and they won't refund that $ either. They gave me the option of getting a phone for the $400 trade in allowance for my Galaxy s 20 ultra. Then said they would give me a 400$ credit on a new s22 phone. But not on the Ultra.

    Longtime customer of T-Mobile, always had good service and customer service and always paid my bills on time. However, I’d noticed the reception/service decline over the last several years and after moving back to the west coast finally decided to switch to AT&T, who provides mobile service for my new employer. The reception was so lousy in my new city, Portland, OR with T-Mobile that I constantly had dropped calls and complaints from people that the connection was poor. Upon moving, I had also forgotten to return the signal booster (that never really worked anyway) I’d gotten 4 years ago and out of the blue got a threatening letter/bill for $300. I called immediately and they told me I’d have time (at least a week) to find my booster (located in one of my many moving boxes in storage) and return to the store.

    With the holidays and 4 business days later, I get a call from Collections and put through to T-Mobile who stated that I wasn’t in collections but since my account could be in transition to collections, I was advised to pay the $300 immediately instead of wait for a return shipping label from them and no longer would they take my booster back at a store. Super disappointed in how this company treated me especially after being a customer for so long. I paid the $300 for their lousy device but will never go back to them and will advise friends and family who were considering them to look elsewhere.

All I wanted was a phone I could use at home and surrounding area. She insisted I needed a fancy case, I said no, but it's free. She insisted I needed the ugliest watch ever made, I said no, but it's free. This was my first experience.

    When all this junk arrived at my house, I had to travel 20 miles to a store to get it activated because no one at their service department could tell me how. That was the 3rd week I'd had the box of stuff. Got the phone activated, hated the watch as predicted, called for instructions to return the watch and was directed to drive 30 miles to send it through a corporate store. In the meantime, I got a text and a bill which notified me I could no longer return the watch. This month I got a text and bill for more than Verizon had charged and when I called about it, I was told I was paying for all the "free" stuff I was sold in the beginning.

Each time the store manager called Customer Service they would tell him they resolved the issue and I should be able to see the credit but the bill comes out with the full charge.

    Customer Service does not put details notes on the account when you call so each time you speak to someone no one knows what's going on. They also refuse to put anything in writing so when one person says something to you they can't be held to it as there is no way to prove it.

    Last year, it was on a phone trade in that was inspected and signed off as in good condition/no damage and when T-Mobile received it they said it had a cracked screen. Of course once you're in the contract it doesn't matter - they must have copied this cheat from Verizon Wireless. No matter what time you try to call the 800 #'s it's usually at least a 30 minute to closer to an hour wait to get in touch with someone...I've currently been on hold for 52 minutes already trying to get someone in customer service to fix this additional charge that was added to my account recently.

    For two weeks I was trying to open new lines with Tmobile, and everytime I got lied to. First I made a trade in deal and buying out of contract deals to find out the representative never activated account. Called again and next person reopened account with same deals as per him. Few days later I called for update on the phones and asked about my monthly billing and was told $100 dollars more than I was told. Come to find out the second representative that reopened account added insurance and some accessories that we never even spoke about it. He just added on his own, good thing I called. Third representative claimed she fixed the problem and removed the mistake his colleague made. She also said that phones are shipped and not to call back tmobile as she will call me on Friday the day my phone should arrive. Of course she never did.

    I became so suspicious of tmobile sales reps SCAMMING and called again. This time the lady looked in my account to say that phones are returning back because I didn’t give apartment number. Good thing I didn’t because when I asked her to please tell me what is my monthly bill will be as I had bad experience with dealing with previous representatives, and guess what she completely told me something else. She told me $70 more than I originally was offered and on top of that last representative changed my original deal to buy one get one free phone. How the heck can you even trust Tmobile? Well I’m glad I went to all this hustling and realized I didn’t need them and their scamming deals. Once the phones go back to them I will cancel the deals. Horrible experience and customer service clueless. Imagine dealing with them for years. No thanks. Be careful what you getting with them and ask a lot of questions or they’ll mess you up.

    I was a customer that thought that I would never switch but after multiple requests over many months trying to get a lower rate and seeing offers on the TV to no avail. Finally I decided to take my services elsewhere. Where it seemed like they valued me as an individual. I disconnected my service with T-Mobile on July 8, my billing cycle ended July 4th and in September T-Mobile sent me a bill for almost $280 even though my bill was on automatic payments. When I called to request why I had the bill the care team agent replied that it was for June and July's bill. I explained the process of me leaving and even stated that there may be a bill but should only be for 4 days. He stated "Yes, possibly maybe for 4 days, but he was sending it up to another team because he didn't see why I would even have the 4 days."

    We waited for a bit on the phone and there were no answers back to him so he stated that "I had nothing to worry about and if there were any issues someone would get back to me." Imagine my surprise when I get a letter from collections and not T-Mobile because it wasn't taken care of properly. Of course I call T-Mobile back, get another care team rep who I now provide this information but stated, "I would rather just speak with your supervisor." He states that he doesn't know how long it'll take to get one on the line but can he take the information. I basically provide this individual with the same information but now stating that my bill is in collections but shouldn't be since I called previously. He starts digging around in my chart and stated that he didn't see that the other rep did anything but he'll do it now by sending my stuff out to have my bill fixed and "don't worry about it."

    A few weeks later another collections letter comes and I'm frustrated because never am I saying I don't want to pay the part owed but there can't be so much conflicting information coming from one source. If you work together be on one accord and take proper notes for which all of you to read from. I called back again 12/15/22. Spoke to another agent and requested the supervisor right away, however he thought that I would drop call and/or hang up because at first he left me in silence for like 25 minutes until I started humming then music for 30 minutes then stated that he emailed all of the parties that I previously talked to and left a message for the supervisor regarding the same issue because of course you have to tell them the story before you can get any further in life.

    I asked him what was the purpose of emailing the past parties if they dropped the ball in the first place? He said so that maybe they can go back and fix the issue. He also stated that I should hear back from someone in an hour or two. I inquired who was the someone. He stated the supervisor and/or the other parties. I already knew that was not going to happen and it didn't happen. What a joke. I reached back out to T-Mobile 12/16/22 with the same request of a supervisor, after telling him the same information, he tried to disconnect call with saying there's nothing that can be done because it went to collections, waiting for almost 45.

    Another man came to the phone and I'm not sure if he provide me with proper information either and I feel like they put me on hold to come up with this story. I feel so disregard, disrespected and disgusted in all of the agents within these past few months. T-Mobile really needs to do some retraining because if you could rate with no stars this would be the time. Some people really care about their credit and worthiness and I am one of those people.

I called them, but they didn't care, their wallets are full and am just a number in my opinion. They are fast to take whatever money they can from you. Service is poor here; I have to go outside in the cold to take a call or to call. So, they force you to go paperless billing so they can save thousands, force you to do auto-pay to lessen their workload and get faster payments, or they charge more, but soon as you miss that deadline their system is set up to take more of your money.

    Sales clerk at a franchise store in Town and Country MO refused to provide service, specifically to set up and transfer data for a new phone because it was bought at Best Buy instead of T Mobile. We have been with T Mobile 12 + years and have paid nearly $20k in service fees. They have transferred other phones bought elsewhere over the years, including my husband's two days before (bought at Best Buy also) at the same T Mobile store, just a different clerk, with no questions. I questioned why the service was provided to my husband and not myself. No explanation was provided. I called the main corporate number. The clerk refused to give his name to the corporate office.

    Do not use this company. They are the biggest Liars on Planet Earth. First of all if they mail you an advertisement it's all lies. They will do anything to try to steal your business from another cell phone company. The ad said I could get two phone lines for a certain amount of money. I talked to the rep on the phone and he charged my CC the activation fee of $35.00. Then told me he would mail me the Sim card. After receiving the sim card it would not activate because AT&T had to release my lines and I had to pay off my Iphone to get them to do that. To make a long story short the two phone lines were not what the guy told me. Only one line could received calls. The other line was text only. I canceled the service and disputed the $35.00. I then received many letters and calls from a collection agency. T-mobile are liars and scumbags. Do not do business with them.

    I purchased a lake house in a remote section of Fl. Had spotty cell phone service. Suggested I try T-Mobile. Went to a T-Mobile store. Informed them of the lake house address and was told they had adequate service in that area. Dropped Verizon and signed up with T-Mobile for a internet hot spot and two lines. Needless to say the device was worse than Verizon's no service inside. And outside it was intermittent. Continued to test it on occasional trips to the location. After about a half dozen week ends of frustration gave up. Store said they could not offer a refund on the hot spot and I would have to talk to headquarters to cancel.

    AT&T gave me a temporary number and hot spot that I could test for service. Worked great and I signed up with AT&T. 2nd dupe T-Mobile would not release my number for porting to AT&T, until I paid a bill. After weeks of haggling and a near nervous breakdown. They managed to bill me for two months of inadequate service which is already in the hands of a collection agency. No attempt at appeasement. Just nail the unhappy customer for whatever you can get.

When wildfires and evacuations started to really become a problem, I had to find better service in the event of another emergency. T-Mobile representative assured me they provided very good reception in my area and showed me a highlighted map. I went with 4 lines that included a new iPhone for my husband but also stuck me with a 2-year contract. Cell service was worse than my previous carrier but I stuck out the contract and then switched companies.

    I lost my 16 digit pin they require you to provide to get any account movement done due to an iCloud problem. But since they took my DL info, my social security number, had my debit card on file, home address, cell phone numbers, email address, and security questions and answers on file, I knew there had to be another way to verify it's me (like every other company and institution on the planet does without issue or hesitation). Nope. They refused but said I could go to a store and show my ID for assistance. I went to the nearest store about 15 miles away to complete the cancellation process.

    A couple days later, there was an auto payment deducted from my checking account. I tried to login online to my account to view the bill and was locked out. I called to have the bill emailed to me but was told they were unable to email, text, or snail mail me a bill without me giving them my 16 digit pin. But I could go to a store and ask for a bill, like we did in the 70's?? I found this to be an outrageous requirement in this world of tech advancement.

    After T-Mobile took over Sprint, I have had nothing but headaches with T-Mobile. Back in February 2022, I was told that T-Mobile was shutting down the 3G network and that I had to upgrade to 5 new phones. The phones I already had were all paid for and working just fine but was told they would no longer function once T-Mobile shut down the 3G network. It was all downhill after that.

    T-Mobile conned me into a 24-month commitment for 4 "free" phones to replace the android phones. The 5th line was an iPhone, but T-Mobile told me that they would not provide me with a free iPhone, so I was forced to either accept an android phone to replace the iPhone or pay for a new iPhone out of pocket. I told the T-Mobile rep who helped me that was not acceptable since my iPhone I had was working just fine and I was happy with it. A promotion at the time for new customers was a free iPhone 13. I told the rep that I shouldn't have to pay for a new iPhone just because T-Mobile was shutting down the 3G network.

    After some back and forth, I was offered a $400 credit on the next billing cycle, and I keep all 5 of my old phones. I agreed but now roped into 24-month commitment on 5 new phones, and this was not by choice since they were telling me my phones would no longer work. I either had to upgrade or not have phone service.

    A few days later the new phones arrive in the mail, along with 5 hotspots that I never requested. When I received my next bill, I noticed T-Mobile had activated insurance on all 10 devices without my consent. My previous phones I did not have a protection plan and didn't feel the need for it. I called T-Mobile to get the hotspots sent back and to get the insurance coverage dropped that I did not request. T-Mobile cancelled the insurance but did NOT refund me my money they billed me for on those 10 devices. To add insult to injury, I didn't see the $400 credit I was promised for the iPhone 13. When I called about not receiving the credit, I was told I would be getting it on the next billing cycle. Next month rolls around and no $400 credit.

    On May 27, 2022, I contacted T-Mobile and was told that I would be receiving the $400 credit on the next billing cycle, and a $65.35 credit for 3 months for my troubles. Next billing cycle, no $400 credit or a $65.35 credit. On June 29, 2022, I contact T-Mobile again and was told the same thing that I would see the $400 credit on next billing cycle, and also would receive a $66.68 credit for 4 months for my troubles. Next billing cycle, no $400 credit or $66.68 credit.

    On July 25, 2022, I contact T-Mobile was transferred, transferred, and transferred. Each time describing situation each time. The last person I was forwarded to said he was going to resolve this, so I never had to call about it ever again. The rep said he submitted a ticket and would contact me on July 30th, July 30, 2022, the rep calls me and offered a credit of $16.67 for 24 months for the $400, so I accepted. On August 2,202 the rep contacted me and said it was all approved and I would be seeing a $100 credit on the current bill which was equal to $16.67 for the 6 prior months, and then would receive $16.67 for 18 more months. The rep said the issue is now resolved and would not have to call in ever again about this issue. The following month I did not see the credit, so I called, and it was applied to the current bill.

    October 13 same thing happened and was credit the $16.67. November 2022, there was no credit but this time when I called, they said they were not going to honor the agreement and offered me $100 to settle the matter. I told them that was not acceptable and wanted what I was promised. After the rep spoke to her supervisor, I was told I would be receiving a $300 credit on my next invoice, and the remaining balance owed on the iPhone 13 would be due also on the next billing cycle, $586 - $300 = $286 that I would owe towards the iPhone 13, and it would be paid off. Next billing cycle and no $300 credit and still making payments on the iPhone 13.

    December 2, 2022, I contacted T-Mobile and got the run around as usual, but worst this time. I was told they were not honoring the agreement the other rep had made but offered me a $30 credit to settle matters. I told rep it was BS and I want the credit I was promised when I purchased the phone, and to refund the money they did not credit me back for the insurance I didn't request or approve. The rep then offered me $50 to settle the matter. I declined and demanded to speak to supervisor. Next thing the rep asked me was if my cell service was better with T-Mobile vs Sprint. As soon as T-Mobile dropped the 3G network, my cell service at home is virtually nonexistent unless I am near a window. I am constantly having dropped calls and voicemail messages are delayed by hours and sometimes days.

    While waiting to be transferred, she tells me that one of my lines was eligible for an upgrade and wanted to know if I was interested. Before she could finish, I told her to stop because I was not going to buy any more phones from T-Mobile since they have not honored the agreement from when I was forced to buy 5 new phones back in February 2022.

    I get transferred and the rep tells me that I was offered a promotion that required turning in my old iPhone to get the balance of the $400 credit. I told him that was not the agreement. I was told I keep all 5 of my phones plus the $400 credit towards the iPhone 13. The rep tells me the android phones were free. I said they were not because I was forced into a 24-month contract on each phone and if I leave T-Mobile, I have to pay for the 4 android phones.

    At that point the rep tells me the android phones were property of T-Mobile and that I didn't own them. My android phones I originally had were paid for and so was my iPhone. The rep said that they were not going to honor the agreement that was made with me for the $400 and that there was nothing else to discuss. The rep kept talking over me and not letting me say what I wanted. He told me that if I keep interrupting him, he was going to terminate the call. He said that since I was refusing to turn in my old iPhone there was nothing more to discuss. Before I could say anything else, he hung up on me.

    T-Mobile is by far the worst cell phone provider I have had to deal with. Customer service is horrible, and the reps lie to you and make false promises. Cell service is not nearly as good as Sprint was. T-Mobile customer service is a joke. I have also been having issues with not receiving voicemails right away. Sometimes hours after message were left and sometimes days later. I have also had to constantly reboot the android phones every couple days or the phone would show I had no service and could not receive or send texts or phone calls. Phones showed "No Service". Reboot phone and problem fix for a maybe a day or maybe 3 days, then repeat, repeat, repeat.

    I had actually believed that they resolved the issue with the $400 credit before seeing my November bill, so I purchased and iPhone14 Pro Max and now locked into 24-month contract. Never would have made the purchase had I known T-Mobile was going to stiff me on the credits. I still have not received a refund on for the insurance premium they stole from me when they activated the service without consent and failed to refund the money. T-Mobile reps are liars and thieves.

    16 months ago we switched to T- Mobile as we were offered a plan at $92.50 total for 3 lines with 40 gb of Mobile hotspot per line. Or first bill was $127. When I disputed the bill, I was told that plan did not exist; however, they have me the same exact plan and called it a corporate plan. Every month they raised my rate and I had to dispute the bill. After 16 months they said they will not make anymore adjustments on our bill. At that point my bill was $147. I disputed that rate and was told that they were "escalating" the issue to their GM. After 10 days of no communication, I called customer service and they said they could adjust my bill to $95. Needless to say, my next bill was $165. During this battle, the company took down 2 cell towers that were accessible to me so they could upgrade them for Internet so they can get more customers, so I was without reliable service for months.

    I’m beyond fed up with Sprint. / T-Mobile. First off, my service has been extremely worse for the last 1.5 years. Constantly going in and out. Doesn’t even work in my house to make phone calls. I deal with it because the price for unlimited makes you settle and deal with it. We noticed We were being charged for a free promo line. They wouldn’t credit back the line that was supposed to be free so I canceled it Aug 2021. Fast forward my dad notices a phone line being charged to his account. So I review his bill. Sure enough the line I canceled Aug 2021 was still being charged 13.5 months later!

    I called Sprint and told them about their error. They said they saw notes of my call the prior year canceling it so no need to go pull voice recordings. They said the agent failed to cancel the line correctly. They said no worries, they would make it right. They came back and offered me half credit for 12 months. $180 opposed to $360. Technically it was more but at this point I was done arguing. I said why would I only get half for their mistake!! They said fine, they would approve the full 360 but not all at once. It has to be split into two months of credits. I agreed even though I didn’t align with that.

    The $180 was applied. The following month my second portion of 180 was not applied. They said they couldn’t just give me such a large amount back! It was a clown show with 5 calls to Sprint with each representative assuring me it would be taken care of. When I finally thought the credit was applied (which it was) I received a text message that they will be drafting a payment for the full amount minus the credit. I know this doesn’t make sense because it’s complete chaos. So the 6th call happened and then they canceled the payment realizing their error once again. I’m not sure what’s happening in customer service and their accounting systems but it’s a mess. We are looking elsewhere after being with Sprint since 2005!
