    THEY MAKE A MISTAKE AND I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT?!?! November 2022 my husband and I tried to change our service from Verizon to T Mobile. After spending 6 hours at the T mobile store we were told my husband's number could not be ported. We went home and found the service didn't work well on my phone at all and cancelled the whole transaction to go back to Verizon, T Mobile kept sending me bills for $0 balance until July 2023 at which time I received a Bill for $60. I called and was told by T Mobile it was a mistake and to throw the bill away the account is closed..

    August I received a $60 gift card. September I received a bill for $67,41. $60 plus 7.41 late charge! I called and was told they would have to review the matter and will return my call, never got a call. I then received a COLLECTION NOTICE for $67,41!!! T Mobile sent me to collections for their mistake!!! I again called T mobile. Twice was disconnected. Then I was told "Too bad, we sent you the gift card in error but you have to pay for it!!" I've spent over 20 hours dealing with this nightmare! I went back to the T mobile store and was told I needed to take it up with corporate. No one would let me speak to a supervisor. I'm so very upset and there is nothing I can do or my credit will be ruined!!

    They charged to for a service $50/month which was never activated for last 1.5 yrs and then told me that they can’t do anything. I should have read fine print. Please check what they are charging you carefully. They can get you with autopay and before you realize something is not working they won’t return your money.

    On October 7, 2023 I went to a T-Mobile store located at 3506 Capital City Mall Dr #214, Camp Hill, PA 17011. I went into the store and ** helped me. ** told me about a promotion and a trade in value. ** asserted to me and multiple other people including the account owner that the promotion they were running was for $350.00 PLUS IN ADDITION the trade in value of the old phone which was valued at $260.00 for a total of $610.00 being applied to the new phone making the installment payments a total of $24.58 monthly.

    On October 12, 2023 the phone was received and I was to do the deferred trade in for the old phone. Went to a T-mobile store near home and was told that the information I had was inaccurate and I should call the store that provided that information. On October 14, 2023, I spoke to a representative named Jennifer over the phone (recorded calls) and explained the situation, she promised me a call back Monday October 16, 2023. THIS CALL NEVER OCCURRED BECAUSE SHE NEVER CALLED ME. On October 16, 2023 after failure by Jennifer to call me back I called again and was transferred to Nadia another rep. I explained the situation to her and because of the situation she sent me to her Supervisor Danielle. Danielle said that there was nothing they could do to honor the price the EMPLOYEE gave me on October 7, 2023.

    T-mobile's employee misrepresented the terms of the promotion to multiple people. In reliance the misrepresented terms the agreement was agreed to TMmobile does not want to take accountability for their own employee's errors. To put into context, there was misinformation provided by TMOBILE'S EMPLOYEE who they TRAIN and who they are RESPONSIBLE FOR. As a result of the inaccurate information my payments are higher for the new phone than what was represented to me on October 7, 2023. I tried to speak with TMOBILE and they refuse to rectify the situation saying they cannot do anything about it. After 13 years I believe it is time to leave.

    Very upset!! T Mobile and their service has been delayed my life many times. I tried to unlock my device when my phone was already paid in full and they lied saying that they did and when I tried switching to another carrier I found out they never unlocked my phone. I stayed 72 hours without line/ connection because they lied about it and had to call them again, spent at least 4 hours going to Apple store trying to unlock again because that’s what they told me to do… Their line is horrible, it was always out of service many times. They put me on collections too when I bought an iPad from them. I told them to transfer to my husband at the time for it and I got the blame for it. They ended up not transferring and they put me to collections… Horrible horrible carrier, run away from them!!

    The customer service at T-Mobile is horrible; they are not for the customers or the military as they claim to be. I have been a loyal customer for over 14 years and the treatment I receive is awful to say the least. T-Mobile could care less if your phone is connected to your cardiologist. T-Mobile is nothing more than fake promises, liars and money hungry company! None of the agents are on the same page they notate your account sometimes. I have been told they would give me credits never see the credits on my account! The service is crappy, phones work have the time, call in to report the issue but never resolved but still want you to pay for service you never got!! Do NOT go thru T-Mobile.

    I was their customer for more than 10 years, this summer I called to let them know that I will travel in Europe and maybe I need data internet there. They charged me extra $100 and when I came back they decided to overcharge me again for a video call that was made on FaceTime. I called them to ask why they do that, the customer service told me that from now on I will be charged if I will call on WhatsApp with the same price like I will make a international call. I thought I don't understand well and I asked him, "Did you guys change something in your plans and I don't know?" He asked me to go to a store and they explained me:

    When you make a call on WhatsApp in another country they have the right to drop your internet without letting you know and charge you like a international call.

    When I was their customer I had automatic payments, I moved to another company for already 3 months and they keep sending me bills that I have to pay another $300.78. My question is, if I had automatic payment why they didn't charged me before I left the company and they keep asking me to send them extra $300.78? So, before you register with them think twice. I spoke with more people about it and they told me that T-mobile tried to overcharge them too. Another thing, on the paper that they sent me it says, "YOU ARE COVERED IN 215+ COUNTRIES W/TEXT AND DATA." So they shouldn't charged me $100 for data when I traveled to Europe.

    My interaction with this company was by far the most unpleasant experience I've ever encountered. I decided to terminate my account with them and settled all outstanding balances. However, I was surprised when I received an invoice for $715 from them later on. I made two separate calls to their customer service, spending a total of two hours on the phone, during which they assured me they would rectify the situation and acknowledged that no payment was actually due.

    To my dismay, I later received a letter from a collection agency, claiming an outstanding debt that I believed was unjust. In order to save time and relieve my mind of this matter, I decided to pay whatever amount they demanded. When I called to settle the supposed debt of $715, they informed me that I should pay $740 instead. Frustrated but eager to put an end to this ordeal, I chose to pay the $740 and sever my ties with this troublesome company.

    I have been with Sprint for 20+ years now T-Mobile. I was shopping to see if I should switch to ATT with my wife's legacy plan or have her move with me on my Sprint legacy plan. I called the T-Mobile customer services line as I was shopping for rates they told me that I would get a 20% discount if I went to a different plan and I could add my wife. They send me a link I fill out the information. T-Mobile sent me an email to call they confirmed it's 15%.

    As I was ready to switch the contract, I double-checked I called the number again 877-384-0296, and yet again they said yes it's 15% and I am eligible for it. After they switched me to a more expensive plan there was no 15% discount, I called them and they said they apologized but I am not eligible for the 15% discount. I have spent hours on the phone they refused to pull the recording and listen to it to honor what they told me twice. I am currently looking to leave T-Mobile as it has been a nightmare for me since they bought Sprint. I highly recommend you do not do business with companies that do not honor their words especially when you have been with them for 20 years. I am looking to exit my contract with them and sign up with a different carrier. Haresh P.

    I switched to AT&T because it will be cheaper for me. I then got a charge on my card for service for a watch I no longer have. Why would I leave a watch on one carrier and have a phone on another carrier? This charge is Fraudulent, shouldn't everything been taken off the old account when I switched carriers and not just the phone? I mean I switched so there is no reason T-mobile should still be charging me any money. I can't even get into my account to see anything so obviously they closed the account so why still the charges. I called and they said they couldn't get into the account. Can't they use your last 4 of your social to look it up? These charges are bogus and I will be looking into this further. If I get any more charges I will just have more evidence. Not happy with this at all.

    Hold and Wait times. I first called T-Mobile to port a number over from my employer to a new T-Mobile account. This simple task took a crazy amount of time. First, initiated a call on 9/25 in the morning 11:23am and opted for a call back. Only to be called back and hung up on in the afternoon 3 hours later. So I called back and was put on hold for another 2 hours. Finally, managed to talk to a service person about another 2 hours later. That call ended at 7:19pm. T-Mobile needed more information and agreed to call back at 4pm pacific time the following day to insure I wouldn't need to wait on hold like I did.

    The next day on my lunch break at 12:35pm I received a call from T-mobile that I would be called back in 15minutes to resolve this issue of porting my number. Anxiously waiting once again for a call that did not happen. I thought maybe they will call me back at the agreed time of 4pm. That time passed and once again I called T-mobile at 4:30 and managed to speak with someone and was able to port my number over to a new account. The call disconnected and the team member did call me back right away and managed to finish this portion of the call by 4:48pm. Whew. This service member that I spoke to I talked about my plans to move this account to a t-mobile account and then potentially a different plan and that I could be pro-rated for the short time of having the t-mobile account. By Wednesday 9/27 I have moved this over to a different service plan.

    Fast forward less than a week later I've received a bill for $72. A full month of service despite having service with them for less than a day. So I called once again to resolve the billing and potentially be pro-rated for the short time with t-mobile. The service person could do very little in terms of looking at my account with the actual account no. info that I left at home. Hoping that my phone number would be enough to figure out the account, but was pretty adamant I would be paying for a full month of t-mobile service even though it was for less than a day. Buyer beware. This company is out to gouge its customers and it really could care less how precious your time is. I should counter the time it cost me to wait for them to do proper business.

I have had to call T-Mobile so many times to report issues that were not resolved. They had my Sim card then my phone then my phone again.

    My husband and I were Sprint customers and then they merged with T-mobile. We paid off our phones and went in to get a cheaper plan because we didn't need everything that plan offered. When we were in store they offered us a plan with way more benefits for only $20 extra a month. I should've known that something that sounds too good to be true, probably isn't true. We decided to go with this plan (5g plus or whatever) because we got new phones and Netflix and Apple TV that we already paid for. The guy did all of this math in store and told us only $20 more than our current bill. The month after (September I believe) our bill was way more than it was supposed to be. The lady said it was partly because of the promos and because they charged an activation fee even though they weren't supposed to. She gave us a discount for the month and her manager cleared a 20% discount for the entire life of the plan, bringing our bill down to $250 a month.

    We got our bill for October and it was $311. We called again and they told us that we are basically SOL and our bill is $311 unless we pay off some devices. So we call again two days later to try and pay some devices off, we do, and then the lady says that it dropped our bill to $315. And we're like how does that make sense? She tells us our bill was $370 before that. I'm beyond frustrated. I asked if they actually do record conversations for quality purposes and she says there's no way of knowing that. There is no responsibility, no integrity, and absolute abhorrent customer service. I'm so done with Tmobile but feel stuck.

    I closed my account to port over to another carrier, and it was the worst experience I have ever had. They argued with me for over an hour and could not explain why they could not refund the money ($170) they owed me from being charged after I closed my account with them. They said it was the policy for them to wait 30 days before refunding me. I asked where in the agreement/policy it stated that, and they could not tell me... because it did not exist! They were helpless to assist me, and said they couldn't even send me an email to prove anything. They weren't allowed to send emails! I asked for a supervisor, and of course there was not one available, even though I was on the phone for over an hour.

    Fast-forward 3 weeks later, I receive a "bill" in the mail from T-mobile... it shows a credit of $49.33, but it is still presented as a bill for me to pay! First off, why did they take $120.67 of the $170?? They did nothing for me, as I cancelled my account with them before I was charged. This statement says I have a credit balance, and it will be credited to my next bill.... what the heck?!! I won't have a next bill! There is nothing on this statement that shows what they charged me for. I am not able to log into my account, because I have no account with them anymore. This feels like a scam! RIDICULOUS! I will NEVER be a T-Mobile customer again, as long as I live.

    Since T-Mobile merged with Sprint the service in my neighborhood has been awful, in my house it’s worse. Dropped calls, no service, the list is ongoing. I finally after multiple requests to resolve this decided to switch to another provider. I switched at the beginning of my bill cycle. They charged me for a whole month. I called once I got a late letter (never received a final bill). I called and they said I paid late, I advised I canceled and wasn’t paying for a service I didn’t have now couldn’t access. The supervisor Kim, stated that I paid late and would have a late fee and they prorate and I would be charged for a month.

    I clearly stated that’s not okay. She also said I paid late last month which I proved not to be valid. She got upset and spoke over me agitated. I told her that I got a bill for a service I didn’t have and she is the pissy one. Confused is an understatement. I told her I would pay the $10 for the days I had the services. They agreed in the end but she said she was glad I left. Me too boo, me too. Lol have the day you derserve.

    Be aware of T-Mobile and their phone hostage policies. We are a business and considered moving our cell service over to T-Mobile. To test and begin the process, we started with one phone. We purchased the phone outright so we owe no money on the phone. Our CEO did not like the service he was getting so we moved him over to a different phone. He still did not like it so we moved him back to Verizon. Needless to say, the phone that was purchased with T-Mobile is locked by them and they refuse to release it even though it has been paid in full.

    I've tried dealing with the Business Care unit and they keep giving me the run around. They are telling me that I need to have the phone ACTIVE on T-Mobile for at least 40 days or they will not release it. So, I have two choices if I want to be able to use that phone. One, I can hook it up with them or two, I can just get rid of a brand new $1300 phone. This is absolutely ridiculous and I have never had this issue with any other vendor. They won't accept the fact that someone is leaving them so they need to hold you hostage in order to keep you as a customer. On top of that, their business care is horrible and won't help or pass you to a manager no matter what you do.

    I been with T-Mobile for 21 years. Been paying for the insurance and had 2 claims. I filed a claim for my damage phone. I have a black S23 and the replacement phone they sent me was a purple phone. I pay all this money for insurance and their no way they can sent me the same phone. T-Mobile stated they would replace your phone with a new one. The color was wrong and it look refurbished. There was light scratches on the back of the phone and around the sim card port. There no way this was a new phone and it's amazing there no way to sent you the same color.

    I have had T-Mobile for about three months. I've always heard bad things about them but they have a tower sitting 30 yards away from me and they were offering Wi-Fi Internet along with the phone coverage that I have so I decided to go with them. I live out in the country and there is no wired Internet here, and the other choices are very pricey and don't really give you anything resembling good Internet anyway (satellites). T-Mobile's pricing is also better than the other providers. That said, I can never get any of their products to work. The Wi-Fi does not work with any Microsoft products because of the weird way they constantly switch IP Addresses instead of leaving you with the IP address you started with when you first connected. Like everybody else in the universe does. (Of course Microsoft is partly at fault here because nobody else has problems with the switches, but it's the only product my employer uses and I work from home).

    The biggest problem is my phone reception is absolutely terrible even though I'm sitting only feet from a tower and I have full bars of 5G UC which is the fastest best connection available in the world. I also have a brand new iPhone 14 which is not to blame for this problem. I don't know what their problem is but their customer service is terrible, their tech support is terrible – it took them three months to admit to me that they don't work with Microsoft products and obviously, they knew that all along. Their tech support strung along for months when I was calling to complain about not being able to use Microsoft Teams before somebody finally said to me, "Yes we tell anybody who wants to use Microsoft Teams or Microsoft game systems not to purchase our Internet." I don't know why the first 27 people I spoke to did not tell me that.

    I also don't know why I have to reset network settings every few days in order to have clear reception on my phone calls. I cannot even have Wi-Fi turned on on the phone because it interferes with telephone calls. When I tried to call Customer Service about the phone reception problem this morning after being cut off three times in the middle of a phone call, it was an hour wait just for technical support. Obviously, they have the worst Customer Service in the world and they also have the worst phone service in the world as measured against AT&T and Verizon, both of which I have had in the recent past. They should not even be allowed to operate — that is how terrible they are.

    I had many Metro by T-Mobile lines on my plan for 12 years. My friends were on my plan - I paid for them. They cancelled one of their line, but T-Mobile did not cancel it. As a result, I paid about $800 over 2+ years for a line not being used. T-Mobile does not show stats of individual phones so you can't tell what is being used. When I discovered it was still on the plan, I asked for a refund and they refused. I went to corporate. They still refused.

    I have been a customer for over 10 years. Never had a complaint or problem that they couldn't fix. However, tonight I called because my bill went up by $25 and I wanted to know why. The rep continued to give me a breakdown of my known charges and claimed there wasn't an extra charge. She continually put me on hold for 30 minutes at a time. Well when she returned at one point she was talking super fast, and mind you she had a heavy Asian accent. Anyway that made it a bit difficult to understand her even while speaking slow.

    So after talking really fast she asked to put me on hold again and I said, "No, slow down and tell me what you just said." She ignored me. Seriously ignored me because I could hear chatter in the background still. So I told her I knew she was there and why wouldn't she repeat what she said. So then she muted me. No hold music played so I know she just pressed mute. Left me hanging for another 20 minutes then unmuted herself and pretended she didn't hear me saying "hello" and "are you there." I just wanted to know what the extra charge was for and I swear I stayed on the phone with this lady for over 2 hours and in that time she told me 6 different lies that I was able to debunk. She even tried to say it was a late fee!

    Really, $25 late fee when I'm looking at the bill and it shows $7.50? Then it was supposedly for insurance that I don't have. She mentioned something about a tablet that I don't own. I never found out what the extra money is for and she continued to ignore me when I'd ask her something. Because of this I'll be shopping around for a new provider. If she didn't know the answer she could've just admitted it and got help but don't lie to the customer and act like a toddler with your fingers in your ears.

    In November 2021, I traded-in 3 phones (family plan) for a total trade-in value of $2400 ($800 each) at T-mobile. T-mobile promised to return the $2400 in the form of a one time credit and further credits spread over 30 months. However, I have had to call in dozens of time spending close to 50 hours on the phone with them to get the credits. Each time, I'm promised a refund only to see a small partial credit. Each time, I argue with the company to honor the contract, I'm assured a refund of the payments due.

    After I filed a on the phone complaint with the FCC, T-mobile now tells me they will honor the trade in credit but start the 30 month cycle 13 months after the original contract date. They are not willing to give in writing. They abrogated the contract. Given this is affecting thousands of customers, it is possible T-mobile swindles customers of a couple of billion $ every year. If we get more than 40 customers willing to go to court, we could file a class action lawsuit against T-mobile?

    On Black Friday 2022. I was given a manager approved deal for $800 off the new Samsung 22. When I did not receive it, I notified them about it. Customer service gave me $400 then told me I had to get the rest from the manager (**, 3550 S General Bruce Dr Suite 100, Temple, TX **) who approved the deal.

When I finally got in touch with him he stated, he literally reverse everything that he had initially told me, and said that he couldn't do anything about it and stated that I should be happy with what the $400 dollars I received.

    I called customer service and told them exactly what he told me. They told me that they would contact him and then contact me within seven days. It's been almost two months. They all are liars. I was conned out of paying $400 extra dollars more for this phone, which I would have never paid for had they had been honest when they sold it to me. They keep saying that there was a promotional deal to get $800 dollars off the phone with an additional line, but that is a lie. In the initial call about the problem the customer service women admitted that she checked and there was no promotion of that kind on BF-2022. But now, she saying that there was a promotion. She lied too. They can't produce any proof that so called "promotion" existed at that time. Liars.

    So I made the dumb decision as an 18 year old to switch to T-Mobile as an act to rebel against my mother and find independence. When that didn’t work out, I decided to switch carriers and notify T-Mobile of my departure with their phone service. The reason for my departure was because they suddenly raised the price from 125 (what I originally paid) to 148 for a reason I don’t know. When cancelling, they took 148 out of my account the next day and I disputed that charge with my bank for the charge being taken out unauthorized even when I turned off auto pay. They’ve had an incident like this before when I manually paid T-Mobile for the month and them taking out more money along with that. Anyways, T-Mobile sent me a letter stating that my final bill was due on August 1, 2023 for the amount of 48.08, I paid that bill thinking that would be the last of it, I was wrong.

    In the middle of August, T-Mobile had a different company send me a bill for 25 dollars for a reason that was not specified on the paper they gave me, I called representatives from both T-Mobile and that company to ask and dispute the charge to no avail. I sent an email providing evidence of said final bill fore mentioned, that company has not replied to that email and it has been a month since I’ve sent it. Today, T-Mobile has sent me the same bill from prior except with a late fee of 7.00 dollars. Just today I finally see what it was for, it was a returned charge fee from when they pulled funds out of my account without authorization. I called T-mobile again to, again, no avail. I regret being a dumb 18 year old and moving to this unhelpful, money hungry phone company. :/ I wish I could’ve given 0 stars but at the same time, the representatives that have tried to help me out were the only saving grace from this company.

    Very simple. T-Mobile has a promotional of getting 30 days trial of post paid service. You can go from prepaid (like I have) to post paid for 30 days to try it and if you like it you’ll stay if you don’t like it then you go back? Was it difficult for you to understand why I called them? If you said no, then you are better than any agent that works for T-Mobile. I got connected 15 so far, I say so far because I’m writing the review while I’m on hold for the second time already 30 minutes. The previous call was 1h and the last agent hang up on me.

    They connected me from sales to activation to sales to activation and now different department because she just said activation or sales can’t do what I am asking. I said my story 16 times so far that I’ll probably say it while I’m sleeping tonight to the people in my dreams. They JUST HANG UP AGAIN. After 35 minutes on second time on hold. So 1h 35 minutes of my life I’ll never get back but the only thing I got was anger and convert healthy body cells to cancer cells through this frustration. Unbelievable. I have no words. I’m switching from t mobile once and for all. I wish you people never encounter issue with your service with t mobile otherwise they’ll make you hate them like happened to me JUST NOW. NEVER AGAIN.

    I discontinued service with T-Mobile due to poor customer service and went to another provider after 12+ years. Today, (9/20/23) I saw another charge come through as an auto-pay from my credit card company. There was no notice from T-Mobile. I have been unable to access my statement since discontinuing service (porting my number to another carrier) on 1 August 2023.

    When I called T-Mobile and discussed the charges with their representative (Maurice) he advised that it was a FINAL STATEMENT for charges for the billing cycle of 28 July 2023 through 28 August 2023 in the amount of $126.79. Maurice explained that I was being billed for the entire month because I had changed carriers in the 'middle' of the billing cycle. I explained to Maurice that it looked like 3 days to me and not the 'middle' of a billing cycle (30 days).

    T-Mobile (Maurice) was unwilling to adjust the statement to only reflect those days actually used. There was no attempt to discuss a prorated bill at any time to bring this to a satisfactory resolution. The positive: Maurice had a command of the English language and spoke so I was able to understand and respond on the first try without asking him to repeat himself. This has not been the case for me during previous conversations with representatives from T-Mobile.

    My phone was paid in full. My phone broke and I did a warranty exchange through the protection plan that I pay for monthly. T-mobile has my new phone carrier locked, They admit the phone is paid in full but said "I must keep this phone on their network for 40 days before they will unlock it". I don't feel this is fair. It is paid off so why should they hold my phone hostage? They don't have any right to lock my sim. I went out of the country and could not install an esim on my phone so my phone which is paid in full was useless for me.

In July I ordered 2 Samsung phones via T-Mobile website and paid a 150.00 deposit, I also made sure NOT to sign up for auto-pay, simply because I have had issues with that in the past.. The phones were being sent to my house via UPS. When the package was delivered, the phones had been ripped out of the box. I stopped the carrier and asked him about the box and the missing contents. He said he would have to place a claim against the missing phones.

    It took all of 2 weeks to return my deposit and still no phones. Fast forward to September 14th and I had 350.00 deducted from T-Mobile for a plan and phones that I never received.

    I went to the store to try and inquire and the asked again for a pin number that I was never able to set up. Long story short. I'm now waiting 7-10 business days to receive my funds, that they never had a right to withdraw, added back to my checking account. In summary, the staff at the stores cannot do anything for you unless you want to purchase something and all T-Mobile staff that I have come across are the most unhelpful and sport a laissez-faire attitude about any issue you may have. NOBODY can help you once trapped in their system.

Last month the out of country agent told me that someone had switched my children’s lines to the essential plan which I never approved of. When signing up I was told it was only talk and text and this agent tells me that is why my bill went up to 146 but they would fix it to the 129 and fix it to where I don’t have to call in anymore.

    This US agent now wants to argue with me about his t mobile reps and the agreement they made with me. After I am done paying off my cell phones I will be going elsewhere. This is ridiculous and t mobile reps should represent all of t mobile. They should hold out their end of their promise just like I pay my bill every month.

Seriously, don't fall for their low cost offers and start up fees only to learn that was only part of the equation. Where I needed the phone most in a different State, no coverage at all. Then, God forbid you mention going to another carrier. Their prices, fees, and penalties go through the roof for ** you didn't even know you'd signed up for. All of this was just under a month in my discoveries but they say you're hooked for 2 years. ugh!!!

    I have been using T-Mobile for 6 years now and recently was scammed by an offer for a new phone and line for free. It turned out to be a lie and even though I verified the offer, I was charged anyway. I will never recommend T-Mobile to anyone else ever again. It's like they are trying to take advantage of old people who are not as quick to understand they are getting ripped off. I used to be very happy with them, but they screwed the pooch this time by eating my lunch.

    T Mobile constantly changes my bill. Used promotions to lure me in with free equipment. But realistically turned around and kept trying to charge me for the equipment. Every time I call they keep me on the phone for hours. I finally had 1 supervisor "fix the problem" and was told if I had any more issues to give them her name and contact ID #. Finally feeling some relief. It only took 2 weeks for t mobile to screw up my bill again. I followed the last supervisor's instructions. I was refused a supervisor when I called back. The CSR kept me on the phone for 30 minutes until finally agreed to let me speak to a supervisor after asking numerous times. Still issue is not currently resolved and still have not been able to get a hold of a supervisor. The last few times I have tried to speak to supervisor I was going up on.

    I've been with T-Mobile for 20 years. It used to be a great company, very reputable, reliable and decent. Unfortunately, however, it has gone downhill in many ways. They DO NOT appreciate their loyal and long-time customers. All they care about is getting NEW customers, especially if they can transfer those new customers from competitors such as AT&T and Verizon to T-Mobile. It doesn't pay to be loyal to T-Mobile, because they will not be loyal to you.

    T-Mobile billing is a big joke. They overcharge in the name of partial month bill. Even if they do partial month bills, no single day should NOT be charged twice. i.e., no single day should be in 2 billing cycles. If they do partial month bill from January 1st to January 15, then next month bill should start from January 16, not from January 1st again. Anyone who closely monitor their bill can find this. On top of all, T-Mobile do not maintain bills that are 8 months old (if service is cancelled). As per federal document retention policies, all these bills need to be maintained for at least 3 to 7 years. Stay away from T-Mobile.

    I tried signing up for their 5-line essentials plan online. They directed me to call the number and the person on the line said it was because I was trying to mix e-sim with physical sims but if that functionality of the website doesn't work then why have it? I think it's intentional. When I called they tried up-selling me. I told them if I wanted to pay more I would have stayed with my old provider. I stressed needing the plan I had chosen but they insisted and I stood my ground. The rep on the line said he was going to give me the $220 plan to try because he wanted me to have the "best service". Again I said I don't need it I want the essentials plan. I told him again and again that I WON'T be paying for that. I CANNOT pay for that other plan. He said I wouldn't have to and it will be canceled when I call to activate my SIM cards. Then what was the point?

    I called several times after getting the first couple of phones activated. I started getting texts about my $220 bill. I called their customer care and they kept telling me that they couldn't do anything about it and that I was better off with that plan. I told I did not authorize that plan or to be charged that amount. The agent then scoffed at me once I started getting pushy and then brought another agent on the line. They said they would make my bill $160.00. At that point I was tired of being roped around and hung up. I knew it was still too much.

    I went to a physical location. No help. They have no control over billing. Are they just there to look pretty? Eventually, I call again during normal business hours and get someone else who tells me that my bill should be reflecting the AutoPay discount. They subtract whatever amount the past 5 reps would not. So I am, supposedly, getting my discount now, although the rate quoted on the website said 120.00 before taxes. I'm not sure how I'm paying 20+ in taxes but whatever. Now I am having the worst time of my life trying to port over the last number for the last phone on this account. Back and forth, back and forth. No one ever has an actual solution. ISTG, I'll give them a chance for 1 year and then if they keep playing games with me I'm switching out again.

    Filed an FCC complaint about a bait & switch situation and a few other issues. CEO Office called in response and I was offered a new phone for free (bribery to close the FCC case?). Turns out I was sent a phone locked by another carrier. Obviously not new! In the process of them trying to activate it, they deactivated my old phone. After over 6 hours on chat/phone with them, the new phone is still locked & unusable and now my old phone won't activate. I'll be without cell & text service until I can drive 45 minutes to the nearest store on Monday. Not sure what that will fix since the store typically calls Customer Service to begin with! I've emailed the corporate office rep that sent the new phone and am now not receiving any responses. I have been a Sprint/T-Mobile customer for 20+ years. I do NOT recommend T-Mobile!

    Long story but sharing my whole experience. I switched from Verizon to T Mobile due to wanting to cut cost. Stopped at t mobile in Auburn NY and got a 3 line plan with Hotspot and a smartwatch that they had a 50 dollar promo for when you sign up. Also note, all 3 phones I had purchased outright from Amazon. The only equipment I was making monthly payments on was the hotspot. According to the salesman, I had great coverage in my area where I lived. I paid the down payment and was excited that I got a cheaper cell phone plan. So my wife and I got home and we noticed right away that we had no service at all. We waited a couple days figuring that the number switch had something to do with it because we wanted to keep our same numbers but nothing improved after a couple days. The hotspot worked fine.

    As soon as we would drive towards town our phones would start going off with messages and missed calls. So I decided to call customer service and they ran several tests and nothing worked. They then told me that the tower was down and was getting maintenance done. My wife and I decided to just wait it out and we used the Hotspot for service for our phones. Problem with that though is that it was using up all of our hotspot data within 2-3 weeks. We then called again 2 weeks later about the service and we were told that the tower was still down for maintenance and that would only be another week or 2 until it's up and running again.

    About 3 weeks later after that we called several times at different times and kept being told the same thing. We requested a partial refund due to poor service. They said they'd take 50 bucks off our bill. Payment went through a few days later and there was no deduction of 50 dollars. So we ended up calling to discuss the issue and we're told that the tower wasn't down and hasn't been down at all. At this point we were tired of being jerked around and being told one thing and another thing by different people from their customer service and decided to drop our service with them and go back with Verizon. We didn't want to keep paying for a service we weren't getting. We were told that we had to return the hotspot to a T-mobile store if we did not want to get charged for the device and that we would get billed for part of the month we had service. It was only a week into our billing period but I was just ready to get it paid and done with.

    The next day my wife drove to Auburn which is 45 minutes away from our house to return it, and was told that they couldn't take it and that we would need to call customer service for a shipping label and ship it. Again this is another example of being told one thing and we go to do it and it turned out to be different. So I ended up calling and I got emailed the shipping label, printed it out put the device back in the box that it came in and dropped it off to UPS which was 40 minutes away from me. I got proof that they shipped and delivered it. At this point we thought we were all squared away. We got charged for a 2 weeks of service that month and thought we were done with t mobile for good.

    A month and a half later we receive a bill in the mail for almost $300 dollars! The description showed that it was for the remaining cost of the watch and the hotspot device. We were told by the T-mobile salesman that the watch was a $50 1 time payment. Customer service ended up saying that the promo was only good if we kept service with them for 24 months but since we dropped the service we would have to pay for the watch in full and got no reason as to why we have to pay for the hot spot that I returned. I wouldn't have gotten the watch in the first place if I knew that. It wasn't something that we needed but since it was a $50 one time charge we said heck why not.

    Anyways fast forward to today (9/8/2023) I decided to drop the argument over the watch since we physically still have it (because you only have 2 weeks to return it for a refund). It was 112 to pay off the watch and the remainder of the bill is for the hotspot device I returned. The dispute is in investigation at the moment and I requested them to pull all conversations we had with them because they record them because we were told that we wouldnt be charged. They were suppose to send me an email about the investigation with a follow up date for Tuesday 9/12/2023 to call me back with an answer.

    I didn't receive an email over it and I'm gonna have to call again tomorrow to request it. Though I feel I already know the outcome of the situation, They will end up trying to charge me on the 23rd which was my regular billing cycle through them. Have never dealt with any company ever like this and if they do end up charging me, I will be bringing the matter to court. I just can't understand how a company who was supplying poor service can treat and take advantage of customers like this. They try to get any dollar that they can out of you.

    The T-Mobile Sales and Activation team voluntarily provides misinformation to influence customers' decisions to take up service lines. Even though the activation call recordings confirm the offered promotion, the T-Mobile Service team cannot provide it due to technical issues. This has resulted in paying higher bills than agreed upon. Furthermore, T-Mobile's sales team does not provide written communication regarding the offer. Instead, they ask customers to wait for a few months for the billing cycle to reflect the promotion, which will close the cancellation window and return period. This has become a winning strategy for T-Mobile. Additional facts: The entertainment perks often catch the customer's attention, and the auto-pay program may lead them to overlook what is being billed.

    Do not allow yourself to be taken by the T-Mobile Phone company iPhone promotional gimmick or you will pay a costly financial price you are not prepared. I have been going through this for almost two years now. It has become my financial nightmare. In October of 2021, my niece who was in my phone family plan, but was away at college in another state called me. She stated that she was on the phone with a T-Mobile customer service representative to get my authorization that would allow her to switch her iPhone 11 to iPhone 13 (cost $1200 at the time) and that it would cost me nothing. I told my niece to put the T-Mobile customer service representative on the phone.

    The T-Mobile customer service representative told me pretty much the same thing, but said that once my niece’s iPhone 11, she would get a substantial discount. She would pay a little upfront to get the phone in the store, and it would not affect my monthly bill. I did not doubt the customer service representative at the time because my daughter who was also in college in another state and on my plan also switched her iPhone in the exact same way.

    To my shocking nightmare, the first bill that I received after my niece iPhone switched went from about $70 to over $200 a month. I immediately called T-Mobile customer care for answers, and I got none. I called my niece who was equally concerned about the bill, and she had no explanation. For two years, I continued calling T-Mobile customer care for a resolution to my bill complaints and concerns, but nothing happened. I was promised repeatedly they would get back with me, but no one did. But I kept calling until around March of this year. During one of my calls, a male T-Mobile customer service representative said the iPhone payments was tied to a Samsung Galaxy A32 5G phone I got in a local store where I live. This phone never worked as it malfunctioned from day one and T-Mobile was aware of that.

    I challenged him on how that could be possible since I purchased the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G phone before my niece decided to switch her iPhone 11 to 13. Also, who gave T-Mobile the authorization to tie the iPhone to the Samsung A32 5G phone on my phone plan in that manner? No logical answer was provided. Rather, he told me that based on the T-Mobile arrangement of the iPhone promotional payment at the time, it would be sometime in 2024 before the iPhone 13 that cost $1200 in 2021 would be paid off.

    I had been paying the iphone 13 off since October of 2021 after they told me that my phone bill would not be affected. But it was, as my monthly bill went up till now. I told the T-Mobile customer service representative that would not happen because after October of 2023, I would not continue to pay for the iPhone 13. Be warned! Do not allow yourself to be taken for a sucker fool financially by the T-Mobile iPhone promotional bait like I have been.

    COSTCO Kiosk - Signed up for 2 lines On MAGENTA MAX 55+. Then in June I was told I had to pay for a 3rd Line, and move into the more expensive Plan Go55PLUS if I still want the COSTCO and T-MOBILE promotion. WHY? I was already in an agreement with the Magenta Plan, and simply sent the wrong phone. I sent the wrong phone back and was told I had to drive back down to Costco 1hr to get the Correct Phone ordered again.

    Why did I have to graduate into a higher Rate Plan? All because I couldn't drive down there fast enough to order a new phone that T-Mobile got wrong to begin with. I was already On That Plan with That Promotion...Just sent the wrong phone. Not to mention that I also Had to Pay for a 3rd line because of the forced plan change! and then call T-Mobile MYSELF to cancel this 3rd line in a month. I've asked the Kiosk Rep to explain more; never gave me an answer in writing; just some more double talk. T-Mobile Customer Service is also clueless apparently about Costco deals.

    Now my Bill has increased yet Again! No Autopay on my credit card which is what I signed up for! No way should we be subject to another Breach. I signed up under this Payment and Credit card; T-Mobile should be honoring this. Started at $90 for 2 Lines; Now paying $110 for 2 Lines (sometimes), as they keep billing me even Higher and not including my Promos. It's a constant battle every month.

    I was also told I did Not have 90 days to return or exchange the phone for something else. But, I see it on T-Mobile's site! Stuck Paying Higher Bills, a Phone I don't want with a lot of the time nonexistent "Data" - Constantly drops internet and/or even slows it down....to a crawl. I've yet to receive my COSTCO Shop card. I spend over an hour each time with someone who always promises they can take care of it..No Problem. Then, I have to go back into battle again to get this bill of $185, or $151 corrected. I believe they bank on people not noticing or just getting tired of their games. Never thought I'd say this, But I miss My Sprint for 20+ yrs.

    They are the WORST! I have been a customer of T-Mobile for almost 10 years. On 8/23 my iPhone 13 randomly went on SOS mode and was not picking up signal. On 8/24 my phone was still not working so I walked into the tmobile store and one of the associates tried putting a physical sim in my phone. After 20 mins of waiting for my phone to pick up signal nothing was working so they advised me to go to the Apple Store since my phone is still under 2 year warranty. On 8/25 I get to the apple store and they figure out that the IMEI is blocked and they cannot help me until my phone is unblocked. I never reported my phone as lost or stolen and so it should’ve never been blocked. I call tmobile and they tell me it takes 24 hrs for the fraud department to unlock my phone.

    After waiting over 24 hrs I call on 8/27 and speak to a supervisor who tells me they are waiting for the fraud department and have escalated the matter. I ask for them to send me a replacement phone since I also pay for insurance protection and she says my phone is not eligible for replacement because the IMEI is blocked. She asks if I would like to purchase a new phone which I found CRAZY because my iphone 13 is 1 year old and FULLY PAID OFF. She tells me I have to wait for them to contact me. On 8/30 I call again after not hearing anything and I speak to another supervisor and they tell me they figured out that Verizon has blocked my IMEI and they have once again escalated the matter and I have to wait. The supervisor then asks me if I have tried to call verizon.

    This whole situation has been CRAZY AND RIDICULOUS. It is now 8/31 and I have been without a working phone for over 1 WEEK and every supervisor says they will escalate the matter and get back to me within 24 hrs.

    We recently changed service from T-Mobile to Verizon due to their horrible customer service. We signed up with T-Mobile in 2013 when they had decent customer service. We moved to a new house and the area we were in had horrible coverage. We went to a local store, which is now closed and we were given a "Cellspot" device to increase our signal. We were told it was free of charge since we were already customers and the store gave it to us with no documentation or signature required. We used the device for 4 years to extend the coverage at our new location until they eventually put up a tower in our area and we no longer needed the device. We did not attempt to return the device because we were told it was free and did not get any paperwork or have to sign for anything.

    Now here we are in 2023 and we switch to Verizon because the customer service at T-Mobile has become horrible. We paid all of our bills on time and purchased all of our phones through T-Mobile during those ten years. We got our so called "Final Bill" for $10 and paid it. A few weeks later, we get a notice from T-Mobile that we owed them another $300+ for an "Outstanding Balance."

    We tried calling T-Mobile on the phone to find out what we were being charged for only to be told they could not help us because we were no longer a customer and that we had to go to a store location to verify our account. After going to two different stores to actually get that done, we finally spoke with someone over the phone who advised us we were being charged for the "Cellspot" device because it was not returned. I advised the representative the store that gave it to us, said there was no charge and their was no paperwork involved. The representative even told me, "Yes, the device is free, but we have a policy to charge you if you don't return it."

    I asked the representative if she could send me a copy of the policy with my signature anywhere on it that stated we were required to return it after being told it was free of charge and we were told, "It's our policy." I again asked for any documentation stating that and I was told, "That store is closed and we no longer have records of that." I have been a Business owner for over 18 years and have never in my life seen customer service this bad. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone unless you are looking to get ripped off.

    Make sure you check your bill charges every month. When T-Mobile acquired Sprint they continued to charge a month to month $15 per phone lease charge even though we had totally paid off our phones with Sprint. That’s $30 a month. They also added a “Lookout Premium Plus 1” GSM (identity theft) that we didn’t order for $9.99. They also added “Protection 360” anti virus that we never ordered at $30 a month. That’s almost $70 a month they were stealing from us! Horrible company! Don’t use them!

    I wish there is a alternative company so that T-Mobile would learn and actually be a provider not a suckered. Their customer service people are 100% psychopath and master of lying. But root cause of t mobile and their 5G don't even talk about it. All the media business celebrities gurus TV been saying 5g will being us, Business 'Life' Technology will be so fast and amazing that we would go to moon and come back in a minute. Reality is its sucks that 3G. Even 3G way faster than this ** 5G mania and paid promotions, Promoters Statements. So sick of tired of T mobile **. 5G superior technology and some hi tech ** Statements that coming out every other months. **!!!! If their phone network is not even have cover in New York forget about other parts of US. They should get sued because of their constant lie and Lie.

    I have been overcharged hundreds by T-Mobile and the worse part is the system is flawed. I’ve been a customer for years and today they showed me that customer loyalty means nothing. Pretty soon they’ll be bought by Xfinity Mobile if they don’t work out the lack of communication.

    I had service with T-Mobile for 2 years. It was horrible. First I went to update and they wouldn’t let me saying I had to pay the whole phone first. I switched over to Verizon, 2 weeks later they charged me 64 dollars for a service I no longer had. I called customer service, could barely understand them and then I was on hold forever. And after everything they tried to tell me they didn’t charge me yet I was looking right at the charge. My bank is disputing it with them now. I would not recommend them at all.

    Basically all calls are transferred to the Philippines and good luck with trying to understand their English. Seems they're all running around with their heads cut off. 2 hours trying to get help and they still couldn't help me. Asked last guy to transfer me to a manager more than 20xs and still wouldn't. I'm thinking about switching after 10 years. Everything went downhill with customer service the moment these people began answering... They don't understand our US English unfortunately.

    All 3 of my 4G phones on my account had been purchased through a private retailer. T-Mobile data and phone service was very bad when driving around and at work. I went to a T-Mobile store about 6 months ago and was told it was due to my 4G phone. So in May, we got two 5G phones. The data and phone service was still bad. Last week we decided to switch to Verizon. Both 5G phones' numbers ported over. The one 4G phone would not port over or detect the Verizon SIM, which I had picked up from the store because the phone has no e SIM. I called Verizon tech support and was on the phone for 3 hours and nothing could be done. I realized the next day that T-Mobile placed a DEVICE UNLOCK app, on all my 4G phones, which prevents using other carriers' SIMs.

    I called T-Mobile and told them they had no right to put a lock on any of my phones because I paid out of pocket and only have service with BYOD. I was told it would take 72 hours after sending a request to unlock the phone. More than 72 hours later, I called back on Friday, spoke to a manager, who said another request has to be sent and it could take up to 48 hours. When asked what became of the first request, he said he does not have a ticket number and was unable to provide me any info on that request. What the?? I went to a T-Mobile store and they couldn't help. Their mobile service as well as their customer service is TRASH. I believe the original request was never sent. Still waiting on the phone to be unlocked 1 week later.

    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.

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.

    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.

    Original Review: My Internet kept disconnecting so I called T-Mobile. Between the wait to speak to a customer service rep and holding, I was on the phone for 3 hours. They couldn't fix the problem so they exchanged my Tower. The rep told me for my inconvenience she was going to send me a $200 gift/rebate card. I never received it so I called back. 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.

    Following up on a promotion I received in the mail, after 2 hours, the agent convinced me to switch from ATT w/ promise of paying off my phone and a credit towards a new phone to be paid out over 24 mos. In order to activate the deal, I was to sign an agreement that was committing me to paying $35 more a month for the phone. In following up with Customer Service, they had no idea of the promotion I was sold and eventually told me that to get that deal, my monthly fee would be twice as much. I was promised a transcript to be emailed but wasn't.

    Customer Service had no way to track who sold me the promotional plan and no one to view the transcript. Really? I was also told that their network was the absolute best and that the zip codes I was concerned about would have excellent service, but after reading these reviews, although I've wasted 3 hours of my day, I'm glad to stay with ATT. Oh! They also have a customer review scheme where you rate the agent at the end of the call while they are still on the call (after they've promised you things they won't deliver) before they complete the process. Don't trust their company provided rating reviews.

    "Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/tmobile. Moderators remove posts from feeds for a variety of reasons, including keeping communities safe, civil, and true to their purpose." T-Mobile has failed numerous refund requests for $696.44!!! I filed a warranty request at the end of 04/2023. T-Mobile stores could not transfer my data to the replacement phone so I found a cell phone shop that could. T-Mobile would not accept my old phone to turn in and said I would have to mail the phone back in the provided envelope.

    Mid 05/2023 I called Assurance to make sure my old phone arrived and Assurant confirmed the phone was in the warehouse. At the beginning of 07/2023 my T-Mobile added an extra $696.44 to my monthly bill so I called customer service and was assured the extra funds would not come out of my account. But on 07/19/2023 T-Mobile charged the extra charges thru auto-pay. 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".

    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?

    I switched to T-Mobile from Verizon back in October. There were issues and delays but T-Mobile did work with me to resolve. Now 8 Months into the contract I am advised that I can no longer use AX for my autopay and if I continue I will now pay $20 more per month. 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. I recommend that nobody purchase T-Mobile unless you are willing to have changes made to your contract after you sign.

    Spring 2023 our company was looking to consolidate employee cell plans. We spoke to numerous companies and were persuaded by T-Mobile to join. It was a super klunky transition. The internet gateway struggled in our area to get coverage. Their techs worked with an IT person we hired to try and make it work. In the process our main phone number was routed back to our gateway. 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. Can't wait to finish this contract so we can move to another service.

    It seems as T-mobile needs to train their techs better in troubleshooting issues. For the past week they have been trying to figure out how to unlock my device from there Network (Phone is Unlocked). Therefore, I cannot transfer my device to another provider. 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.

Now they want your banking information or a debit card. I don't have a debit card and I never will because anytime money comes directly out from my account I need to register it into my register... or money can get out of control. I don't care when it hits my credit cards because I get my bill and I pay it in full and I'm done with it. In addition T-Mobile will charge you $5 plus tax if you go into the store and pay your bill at the store. I call it thievery and greed and I see their ratings are far from good.

    Contacted T-Mobile via Twitter. They came through and removed all equipment charges. Too bad the T-Mobile Chat contacts could not resolve this situation.

Either way, they finally came through. Suggest using the Twitter Social Media T-Mobile Group if you need help.

    Original Review: July 17, 2023

    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.

    I was initially interested in the Essentials 55 plan for $40/month with auto bill pay. The sales representative showed me, in writing, how I could get many more features, plus a free phone, for $55/month (via monthly reduction of the cost of the phone for 24 months), with the Go5G 55 plan. 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. I have not been using T-Mobile long enough to comment on the wireless service.

    Please delete if not allowed: ADVICE: if you think about switching from Spectrum to T-Mobile, don't do it!!!! If you think Spectrum is bad - T-Mobile is 1000 times worse. I wanted to switch with my Internet from Spectrum to T-Mobile (I heard some good things about the service from some people in the Dayton area who use it and the price with lifelong price lock is also a big PRO), so I got their "magic box" from their store in Greenville.

    Bad thing: the service was bad, VERY low speed, got kicked off many times, re-boot, etc. - HORRIBLE!!! So I brought the box back after 3 days (test period without charge is 14 days!), got the money refunded I paid when I signed up and thought, that's it. OK... not really... 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.

    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.

When he called he had left a couple messages and then when he called back for the third time I answered and he started to tell me he knows where I live and I need to stop calling or I’d get hurt and that they did know where I lived. 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.

    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. It's not worth whatever incentive they offer. Avoid at all costs.

    Initial visit was good, but the system was down so we could not pay. When we returned...the girl could not been more annoyed that we interrupted her doing nothing! She sold us the wrong SIM card, did not set it up properly. We cancelled the card within 3 hours, after we realized that it was not what we needed. CSR was great on the phone. No problem canceling it and a refund was issued. To make a very long story short that was in March, it's now May and I still don't have the refund! They keep apologizing and making promises...you will see your refund in 3-5 days. I do not encourage anyone to use T-Mobile. On approx. day 10, I called the Mgr back since he did not call me as promised. I guess he doesn't like to give bad news to his customers. No I am not getting my, rightfully deserved, money back. I guess I am going to have to eat the $50.00. I have a long memory.

    After 20 years at At&t I just brought 5 phone lines and 2 watches over to T-mobile. "We'll pay off your old phones"- bait and switch. "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 was told my bill would never be over $140. I asked, "Even with taxes?" The Salesman said never over 140! I was so happy. I could save save more than I had with Verizon. My first bill was about 104. My 2nd bill was for 124. My 3rd bill is for 156. I called and they told me about the hidden fees in the free phones. I don't Appreciate being lied to. But should I be surprised. I trusted the T- Mobile salesman in Midland Park, NJ. They straight up lied to me. I called and left a bad review. Because they said it too late to back out of the contract now and T-Mobile will not make it right. As soon as my contract is done I'm Leaving these liars and going to find a new carrier. They don't care!!! I don't recommend solely because I was lied to!!! They have bad business tactics and should be investigated.

    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.

    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.

    Rude and want to yell in store at an issue you was told go store for. When fees go up, I'm Tmobile customer, when phone breaks I'm Sprint and can't get any help. They end chats or hang up on you. Each person tells you something different. They don't care you spent 8 days 8 hours a day getting runaround, time away from your job. Won't even sell you a phone at full price to stop you from missing business or kids due they make more off you with monthly lease of phone. If it was Sprint they took care of in store. I had new phone, no charge advised. They don't have contracts, my paperwork says I'm in contract that I signed March 2022.

    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.

    They don't respect customers. Employees ordering pizza while serving you very bad attitude. Didn't fix under warranty phone. Didn't explain warranty issues. They just care about selling.

    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. They sent me a CellSpot to mitigate this... and it works great as long as I have internet service. However, if the power goes out or there's an internet outage, I'm back to ZERO service.

    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. **?!?! After my current (usurious) contract is up, I'm NEVER EVER going to do business with ANY T-Mobile brand ever again. BTW, "MetroPCS" is T-Mobile in drag.

    As far as service goes, I haven't had a ton of issues with T-Mobile over the past 4 years. HOWEVER, the customer service is some of the worst I've ever seen. 30 minute to hour hold times just to speak to someone who is not trained and doesn't speak fluent English. 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. The only reason I haven't switched is because I don't want to go through that process.

    I traded my I Phone 11 in for a 14 Pro. The sales rep told me I would get $800 for my phone with approx balance of $300 to be paid off in 24 months. My bill before entering this transaction was $50 a month and she told me it would increase to $63 a month and I was ok with that. My current bill is $119 which is DOUBLE what I was expecting. I have tried to resolve this via the T Mobile phone app and I am told the agent would look into it yesterday but I have heard nothing. The sales agent was either poorly indoctrinated into customer service or lied to me to get the sale. I am upset I have to spend my time on something that should not have happened. I give a ONE STAR to this process and I want to know what T Mobile is going to do about it!!
