    I was assisted by a live expert named Mr. Reginald. He was not able to give me his last name… He went above his limits trying to help me to the fullest. I’m on a shared account and was trying to see if it would be cheaper to have my own account. Mr, Reginald did his best trying to figure out what plan would work for me. Very great customer service skills!

    Has been hell to cancel our account. Do not get a family plan. If you mess up the cancellation at all, getting charges taken off is impossible. Whatever happened to good customer service? Disgraceful and I will never use Tmobile again.

    I was trying to put in a sim card lock on the new phone, as I have always done. I used the same sim card from the previous phone, so there shouldn't have been a change, yet there was. After going to the store in person to fix the situation, the very day after I bought the phone, the guy handling my issue was completely clueless. He wound up just switching out the sim card with a new one. Thinking that would solve the issue, I tried again to put in a sim card lock right in front of him. It asked for the puk code, which was entered. However, it didn't work. Again.

    Seeing that he wasn't going to be of much help, I decided it'd be easier to just take the phone and contact customer service over the phone to fix it. The phone was working with the new sim card. They gave me two different puk codes which once again locked the phone. I got online with customer service and they were almost completely unresponsive. It would take ten minutes for them to reply with a single sentence. They didn't care about the issue, or retaining a customer. Their only substantive reply was that if I wanted to cancel the service they'd charge me for the phone I was trying to return, etc..

    I signed up for T-mobile the first of January, I called customer service Jan 12th because I didn’t have service most of the time. The rep told me others have complained in this area and will credit me next month bill and told me they are working on the problem. I continued to not have service so I went back to AT&T February 9th. I was unaware they rescinded my January payment and I received a bill at the end of February showing the 9 days I was with them and a $25 late fee. I would have owed 7.81 if they had not promised to cover my Feb fee but since they did not tell me they returned my January billed amount ($70) the bill now showed $102.81!!

    I called each month and once was told to ignore the bill but was billed the filling month, then was told they would waive the fee but I wanted to talk to the rep that told me to disregard the bill but she never called and I got another bill the following month. Finally after calling each month with no empathy regarding not getting service, being promised a month credit, being charged a fee, being told to disregard the bill; I decided to just pay the bill but was now told it was too late, they sent my bill over to a creditor! I then found out they show I owed $128!!! I asked to be credited the $25 fee which he was able to do but the bill still came to over $103! I don’t know how T-mobile can charge for a service they did not provide! Yes I am upset! Just Beware!

    I upgraded my iPhone in January this year under $800 promotion, I was told that the promotion will reflect on my billing two months after the upgrade. It has been 6 months since then and they billing team has not applied the promotion to my account yet. And I am getting charged for the new phone on every billing cycle. I had called the customer service more than 10 times regarding this issue, and every time they promised to resolve it but the next billing cycle I see that the issue remains the same. I was better off with my old phone because this upgrade has costed me so much time and headache. I am highly disappointed and frustrated with their customer service.

    So, customer service during American daytime hours is absolutely fantastic. Very personable, always get some sort of Joe from Idaho, or Alfanzo from Oregon. When it comes down to overnight service, it's horrible. More than once has my number been deleted from my account completely without authorization just by adding a new line and porting a phone over. My first experience the guy on the other line "put me on hold so he could contact his resources" but I just listened to him sleep.

    RUN don't walk! Horrible experience. Signed up for a plan with a free phone and I wasn't required to trade in my current phone. I was told that after two billing cycles the phone charge would drop off. It never did. When I called they stated that they could not find the promotion that I signed up for and that I was responsible for the total cost of the new phone. **! They offered to give me a $200 credit toward the new phone but I would have to pay $600 in installments. Finally negotiated that I would send their phone back, cancel my account and we would call it even. They agreed. Today I received a bill for the total cost of the phone. The only way to resolve this issue is for me to go into one of their stores and have it researched. LOTS OF WASTED TIME AND ENERGY because they are scam artists.

    I was a T-Mobile customer years ago and switched to Sprint because of horrible service, so I knew exactly how this merger was going to go. Ever since I swapped out my SIM card I’ve had little to no service for over a week. No one knows how to fix the issue and every single day I have a new problem. When we put the new SIM card in I didn’t have service at all. Then I had internet but no phone service, then I could receive text/calls but could respond or call out. Now I have internet but unless the number is saved to my contacts I can’t call out and no one can call me. They keep saying change the SIM card. I’m on SIM card number 8!

    This is insane and completely ridiculous. Someone dropped the ball BIG time and I’m confused on why I have yet to be issued a brand new phone at this point! We’ve been to 4 different T-Mobile stores in 2 different states and my husband has logged at least 20 hours on the phone talking to customer service. I’m beyond disappointed at this point.

    I recently upgraded my phones and plan with Sprint/T-Mobile. After purchase and agreed upon monthly service I received my bill and it was $70 more than I was told at the store. Went to store and they corrected the amount. Then next month statement I was charged again $70 more than I should have been. After 3 different conversations online chats, two of which said they were going to immediately correct the amount and credit my bank statement they failed to do so. One said I should only receive half the agreed upon amount, which in the latest statement I received I did get a credit for $36.50.

    One time I received a phone call from someone in customer service to discuss and because I couldn't remember one of my security passwords they wouldn't do anything. They call me and expect me to give them a password??? Asked to speak to a supervisor and was told they would call me back later and they never did. If I wasn't locked in to a 2 year contract I would switch even if it cost me more money. Seems like a typical bait and switch of saying this is what you will pay, but once I signed on they say no this is the price.

    I ordered service from T-Mobile on May 11, 2022. I spoke with a representative who said I had to pay the activation fee and set up auto pay upfront, so I gave her my credit card number. On May 13, 2022, I got the SIM card, but could never get my service to work. After putting my old carrier’s card back in my phone, I finally go through to a rep at T-Mobile who said they could not port my number in and that is why I could not connect to their network and use their service. That same day, I called T-Mobile back and told them to cancel the service. I spoke with several different representatives until I was finally transferred to the cancellation department. The rep said I had a zero balance and told me that I do not and would never owe T-Mobile anything and that the service was cancelled.

    On June 4, 2022, I found an “automatic payment” charge on my credit card from T-Mobile. I called and the representative I spoke with could not find any account for me and said I do not owe them anything. I again told her that I had an incorrect charge on my card and this time she put me on a very long hold. When she finally came back on the line, she said the charge is legitimate, but she did not know why and said I must speak to a different department to get it reversed. I was put back in the hold queue and had to start over with a different representative. That person had an extremely thick accent and kept asking me the same questions over and over. They too put me on a long hold only to come back on the line claiming that I do owe this bill. Instead of working in good faith with me to resolve it, the representative threatened me with collections and hung up on me.

    I never received any bill or any communication from T-Mobile after May 13th. The emails of May 13 say nothing about any charges owed or any cancellation fees. They do contain a lot of bad links that take you to 404 pages. And since I was never able to set up an account, I have no way to find out what I am being charged for. I now have to dispute this through my bank since T-Mobile refuses to work with me.

    I was a Sprint customer before they merged with T-Mobile and forced with T-Mobile. I was happy with sprint before. I upgraded my phone and returned my old phone for a discount by mail. But here is the thing I never got my discount. I called numerous times for months and they keep saying they will send it to escalations. I could see they received my phone thru the UPS tracking. I keep calling every week after like 4 months they tell me I returned a damaged phone which I didn’t. Worst phone company ever. You can’t even talk to anybody in the US when you call them. No customer service in the us. They even more worthless when you go inside a T-Mobile store.

    LG goes out of business & all LG owners lose some kind of access to the network etc. 21 May 2022. LG stated the issue should be fixed in 48hrs but my particular LG model was on a list that couldn't be fixed. T-Mobile: 1. Stated they were going to give me a newer model but with the same specs which would be a LG V40 thin q 128gb but LIED & sent a 64gb refurbished V40. 2. Until they get the wrong phone back in UPS hands, they couldn't send the correct phone. 3. I waited 2 days after UPS had the wrong phone & called for an update & then was told "all the LG phones are gone" & now they must give me a Samsung to accommodate my 128gb & V30+ specs.

    4. They tried to give me a cheap lower spec quality Samsung. 5. Then they LIED again and said the Samsung galaxy s22 was on backorder (which was another LIE because I called T-Mobile to see if it was on backorder & they stated "no") & they didn't want me to wait & so they will call me back by 31 May 2022 but never called. 6. I called in June & then was LIED to again saying a supervisor will call in a few hours & the representative would also call to see if I was called & no one has called me.

    This was not ANY of the customer's fault, yet we're being penalized for a brand going out of business. A supervisor wanted me to pay for taxes etc on the Samsung phone. I told her to get the money from LG but NOT the innocent 14-year loyal customer. I ALWAYS pay extra for better customer service. I will never tell anyone to go with T-Mobile ever.

    T-mobile said they needed to swap out my sim card at store and the guy broke the tab pulling it out because he was talking on the phone at same time, but he already deactivated my sim card and activated a new sim card so now he had to reactivate my old sim card but then I lost 12 months of photos 1100 photos and videos of my kids and my job work also. The assistant manager at time affirmed and notated all my claims. T-mobile said my Galaxy S8 would work just fine on June 1st 2022 when towers change but hey guess what today is June 3rd and my phone and texts don't work WTF. So I go to the store and they say I have to trade in my old phone to get new one for free but I can't save any of the stuff on my old phone to new one so I said no.

    The Store manager Javier ** kept interrupting me every time I spoke and I finally said stop interrupting me and he says "don't talk to me like. I'm calling the cops" and went and called the cops while the people next to us were like what's that guy's problem, I wait a minute and walk over to the manager and say are telling me to leave are you kicking me out of here, and he said "I'm calling the cops, no I'm not telling you to leave I'm telling you I won't service you" So I don't know how that justifies him calling the cops on me if he doesn't ask me to leave, I never raised my voice and never said one bad word.

I called to complain and once again I was assured that it would be taken care of. Told me to wait exactly one month and they would call. No one called and now I got another bill for an even higher amount because it’s overdue. THIS IS THE KIND OF EXPERIENCE WHICH DETERS A PERSON FROM EVER COMING BACK OR RECOMMENDING THE COMPANY.

    I would give zero stars if I could. We were lied to about what we were signing up for and how much we would need to pay per month at the store. When we tried to handle through customer service we were given run around excuses and more lies. When dealing in store the next day we were there for about four hours with two reps on the phone and one in store and they couldn't honor what we were told and to return everything in less than 24 hours we would have to pay restocking fees of $360 for something that isn't our fault. Even the manager was unable to do anything close to what was told to us or waive the restocking fees. Tmobile has the worst customer service I've ever dealt with.

    I have had an account with T-Mobile for around 18 years. I lived in. New Jersey and moved to Knoxville Tn two years ago. At the time I took a job with my son’s business and he added me to his business account with T-Mobile. In April of 2022 I stopped working for my son. I went to the T-Mobile store, purchased a new phone and asked to open a new account. I was told to call T-Mobile at 611 which I did. T-Mobile’s “Professional Experts” are in India. I was told that my son had to call to remove me from his business account.

    My son spoke to this “EXPERT”. The “EXPERT” advised me that I was removed from my son’s account and opened a new “ACCOUNT” in my name. But, he did not. My son was still being billed and T-Moble had some robot leaving me messages threatening me for not paying my bill despite the fact that I opened a T-Mobile auto pay on “MY ACCOUNT”. So I called T-Mobile's “EXPERTS” again. They did nothing to remedy the situation. So I called again today and spoke to some Indian person who could barely understand me. I have troubles understanding them through their accent and must constantly request that they speak slowly and clearly.

    They said I must open a “new Account”. I mentioned that they could attach this “new Account” to my former account and they said I would benefit from earned discounts and privileges. Except that I forgot my NJ pin Number. All the info matches, but they could not attach the account or transfer all earned benefits and privileges. So I would have to open up a new account and lose all discounts and privileges as a long term customer. Well, NO. I’m going to look for a new phone carrier. So, my advice for using T-Mobile is speak to a lot of people from India so you can become accustomed to the weird accent. Memorize every PIN number you have ever used in your life. And know that the “EXPERTS” from India will not understand American English anyway and will therefore not do their jobs. INSTEAD OF LOSING CUSTOMERS THEY SHOULD HIRE AMERICAN “EXPERTS”.

We used to pay $70 a month and now pay $90 a month. We have since found that there is a lawsuit regarding this because it was fraud. Boost never went out of business.

    I switched to T-Mobile from AT&T for my iPhone 6 months ago. AT&T's service coverage was terrible in many of the areas I travel. And I was tired of the "rip-off" of their post-paid plans. T-Mobile offers great Pre-paid plans at great prices with lots of data for streaming. However, T-Mobile's coverage is even worse than AT&T's coverage! So, after 6 months of weak signals and dropped calls, I decided to move to Verizon. Well, just as AT&T, T-Mobile makes it almost impossible to port your number to your new provider - requiring a special "port your number PIN," which they make it almost impossible to obtain! And... their corporate stores - refuse to help you obtain the "special port PIN!" Just another attempt to try to prevent you from leaving.

    Well - I'm now with Verizon - and the service is way, way superior to either AT&T or T-Mobile. Don't waste your time and frustration with the others - just make sure you get the Verizon coverage, whether that's with Verizon, or Straight Talk, or Mint, or whatever - make sure you have the Verizon towers/network - and you will be a happy camper!

It took me 2 days for me to get a pin to "port out" my phone number. The process should have taken less than a minute but because I didn't know, I would call or live chat T-mobile and they kept telling me that my "pin" that I made up was the "port out " pin, then they said, because I changed my "pin," I had to wait a couple minutes, and then it should be able to activate on my new spectrum service. Mind you each time I would either be put on hold or the person "helping me" would try to convince me to stay with T-mobile.

    I finally decided "Maybe it's Spectrum that isn't working" so I go down to Spectrum and they explained carefully to me that the "port out" PIN number isn't like a passcode that I can make up, it's something that is generated and temporary and that T-Mobile doesn't have the right to withhold that information. So I go to the T-Mobile store and the worker there rudely says that they cannot give the PIN numbers out. I have to call 611 to receive it.

    I call 611 requesting to port out my number to a different carrier, they give me the runaround or drop my call. So instead I call 611 to pretend that I'm "switching to T-mobile from another carrier". And I finally got someone to help me lol. He sounded disappointed that I'd be switching carriers. But he couldn't really help me over the phone, he instead sent me instructions on how to get that "port out" PIN number through my T-mobile app. I hate how T-mobile makes it so difficult for people to switch carriers. Yeah it's easy if you know what you're doing, but I feel sorry for the older generation that is trapped because they don't know how to sign in the t-mobile app to get a port out pin. If it was difficult for me it's practically impossible for them.

    Several months trying to get resolution to connectivity issues, Was told the WiFI tower would solve all my problems. WiFi tower does not work in my area! Why is Customer Care selling this product to customers when it doesn't work? Then told Hotspot would work. Crashes daily!! Call get pushed around to different locations and Customer Care reps who have not got a clue how to resolve issues BUT always upsell me to a product without checking if it is available in my area. 16 years loyal customer. NO ONE seems to be able to help. Hung up on, not called back.

    Spend many many hours on hold with folks who are not even trained in the technology. Not able to get to a Tier 3 Tech support person without having to replay entire conversation because the CCR is not able to input proper notes. Walk into a store and am treated like I am the issue not even listening to the problems. Bills come on time EVERY month, so clearly that system works. AM being charged for products sold to me BY your reps that don't even work in my area. Again always billing me on time for products I am not able to get tech support on and do not work. SCAM!

    If Tmobile would like me to move on I can, BUT stop telling me you're going to help me solve an issue and then just hang up or pass me on. SOLVE THE ISSUE.

    How do you get proper tech support these days?? Simply FRUSTRATED BY YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND CARE. Phone cuts out all the time whether on wi-fi or 5g cell towers are out my window. Wi-fi must be rebooted several times daily. Hotspot is very unstable.

    I finally convinced my husband that we needed to stop with StraightTalk and go to T-Mobile. We spent several hours in Mankato on Saturday so the phone to get set up. My husband has medical devices hooked to his. It is imperative that he have a good signal which we were promised we would. Next day I go to work and I have no signal in my workplace. I call and I was told to come back that it could be a bad Sim card since I had already tried all the other options. I go in and there’s a setting on my phone that was not supposed to be set up so they fix that they gave me a new Sim card and we hoped that would be it.

    Next day I go to work no signal, nothing, I can’t even send a text message. I called and I told him what’s going on and I said the person I talk to last night said I’d probably just need a new phone so this is what I’m gonna do, come over there tonight and get a new phone. I go there and there’s a very nice girl that was trying to help me but I don’t think she had the knowledge that the other gentleman. He stated that he heard a little bit of this conversation today so he could help can help. So I show him a screenshot of this really odd warning that I get when I try to make a call and it says “ line in use do you wanna use another line?”

    Never in my life have I seen that. Also when I call a number that I’ve been calling for years I get a recording that says “this call is not in your pay package you’ll be charged one cent if you continue with this call.” So I am talking to the gentleman and I’m explaining to him what the phone does and I showed him the screenshot that I took. He claims that it was an electric Sim card that was used and not an actual Sim card. I watched the gentleman put a physical Sim card in the phone, Then the next day when I came in he did two or three of them to try to get it to go. And this guy looks at me and says I’ve been doing this a long time and that’s the only way that is possible.

    OK so either I’m liar or I’m stupid. And then when I ask him why that phone number states that it’s charging me a penny he says well that’s just T-Mobile. And then when I complained about the poor internet service, I was told “you know, you can take your service elsewhere.”( we bought 2 brand new iPhone 13’s, the most unlimited Service and the internet and he just gives up and says that) there would be, of course, a restocking fee.. And this is when I lost my mind with this boy. And I admit it was loud and it was not the best language but you do not come at a customer that is very upset and meet them with sarcasm and arrogance.

    To say the least it didn’t end well for either of us. I was threatened with a restocking charge if I decided to try to return these phones and get our old ones back. So as of right now I am stuck with these phones and service. We are leaving for vacation on Friday and I hope to God that my husband will have good Internet for his medical devices. And I will never ever ever recommend T-Mobile to anyone. I should’ve went to Verizon.

    So, as a Sprint business customer, after the merger, we were contacted by T-mobile and informed that we needed to replace the sim cards in our phones in order to access and function on the 5G network. We performed the card replacement on one of our company phones. I followed the prompts that were very simple, but my device did not respond correctly, so I engaged the chat feature. After 30 minutes with Aary D, she had me up and running. I was able to call, text, text photos, and all of my images and things were uncorrupted. A few hours later I lost the ability to share photos via text message. I looked up troubleshooting suggestions, but thought I would engage the chat again to see if there was a quick bug to work out.

    I was asked to login, but do not have the login credentials we used to set up the sprint account several years ago. Please note, I was able to get help in setting up my new sim card via chat without logging in. I explained in my second chat that I don't have the information, but have all of my company information as well as the security question information and pin numbers. Kevin told me that I must log in. I repeated that I could not, and could he not help me troubleshoot this thing without opening our account. None of my dilemma had anything to do with billing or personal information, it was strictly why can't I text images.

    I often need to text clients photos of completed work, so it is an integral function. He then asked me why I changed my sim card from Sprint to T-mobile. I informed him that is was mandated by t-mobile in order to access the 5G network. He then, for the 4th time sent me the login tile. I would hope that when being mandated to make changes to a device, there would be proper support. At no time did we even engage in trying to set up a new login and password for future. I spent 45 minutes chatting with an energy vampire. I see no resolution to this problem other than to take our business elsewhere.

    Card info had somehow fallen into the wrong hands and was used to purchase 2 phones and service. Contacted my bank and T-Mobile the very same day I received an email from T-Mobile about an order. My bank had refunded the transaction and T-Mobile said as long as phones were sent back all would be good. Same day UPS dropped off the package, I returned it to UPS not even an hour later and received a confirmation from T-Mobile it was received. A month passes by and I get a bill for $400 of service I never used nor signed up for. Contacted the BBB after customer service rep failed to address my issue. The issue is still not resolved.

    Following a relocation, I changed to T-Mobile and purchased a phone from one of its stores in February 2022. By May, I was ready to pull my hair out after multiple trips to a local store closer by and calls to technical/customer service #611 (based overseas with observed language barriers, although extremely friendly and polite – well scripted). Issues ranged from exceptionally poor call quality and/or others unable to hear me, often repeatedly within a same call (are you there? Can you hear me? You went away... Etc.), to frequently dropped/disconnected calls. It was almost redeeming when those same issues occurred during calls with T-Mobile(!). I experienced instances of inability to even place calls, receiving an error message 'network unavailable - please try your call again later'. How is that possible with national 5G coverage?

    When your cell is your only phone or connection to people in your life or work (many out of state), this is unacceptable. There was no pattern for time of day or my physical location. I was shipped a replacement (clearly a refurbished model given the hidden stylus was missing…) phone as one solution. After agonizing time spent on multiple calls, downloading multiple transfer apps (CloneIt, ShareIt, Data Copy Transfer, etc.) and issues with transferring data from the original to the replacement device, the replacement phone performed no better than the originally purchased device. Next followed almost as much effort to delete data from the replacement device and/or ensure my original phone still had all its original data.

    Among the many, many and lengthy trouble shooting calls or visits (up to two hours each) to their store, I exhausted every reasonable customer due diligence to remedy those issues before realizing they could not be remedied. Last but not least, I discovered T-Mobile embeds proprietary software to ‘lock’ devices purchased through its stores, preventing the customer from using it on another carrier network (i.e. after leaving T-Mobile) despite having fully paid for and owning the device. This seems some type of free trade market violation, but I'm no expert. I know I've never encountered that previously when preparing to change carriers. After T-Mobile explaining my phone could be 'temporarily unlocked' up to five times a year for up to 30 days each, and 'permanently unlocking' the device was an exception, I suggested T-Mobile could buy back my device for what I paid or I could pursue it in small claims court. I was then assured a permanent unlock could be accomplished.

    We initiated that process with my originally purchased phone for use with a different carrier able to provide consistent, quality cell service. And imagine that transition will require more time to complete. I have invested an amazing amount of time and effort with T-Mobile (one of the last reps I spoke with said I had the patience of a saint given having experienced so many issues). I wonder they grew too quickly and/or aren’t operating as robustly as touted among their heavy marketing and advertisements. I was initially excited to change to (i.e. try) T-Mobile, yet super disappointing outcome. In 20+ years of cell phone use with practically every other major carrier, I’ve never experienced anything like what I’ve encountered with T-Mobile. I couldn’t give them a more enthusiastic thumbs down if I tried!

    I visited store #7603 on 5/14/22. I purchased 2 phones. The CSR ** waited on me. As the transaction concluded, I noticed that she charged me for 2-cases and 1-screen protector. When I asked her about the charges she stated that it was part of a bundle deal. I never requested a bundle deal. She stated that I had to get the bundle accessories to qualify for a rebate. If this was so there would have been 2-screen protectors and 2-cases.

    I reviewed the receipt and the rebate was for devices not accessories. THIS IS BLATANT DECEPTION. She also informed me that one of the telephones was not under an upgrade. Although, I have not had a new phone on this line in over one year. When I did try to exchange this phone due to manufacturer malfunctions, I never received it due to alleged COVID delays. I actually had to purchase another phone! Once the overage was detected she had to gain assistance from another CSR. Eventually, I was refunded $88.37.

    We love T-mobile while we were still using there service. We made an error or T-mobile made an error on cancelling some of line and the bills remain high. AT&T offer better price and trade in for new phone so we switch. After we switched to AT&T, we realize multiple line was still active after my wife supposedly cancel them when she visited local T-mobile store. That is why our bill is stubbornly high and we thought AT&T is cheaper if we switch. But that wasn't why I spend the time to write a bad review of T-mobile. After we found out multiple line was still active, I called T-mobile to cancel the rest of the line. This is when the nightmare started. First time, we got disconnected and before we got disconnected, their customer rep said their system is freezing up but they got the information they need to cancel our service.

    Looking back now we are not sure but we felt like T-mobile did this on purpose. Why? Because next month we got billed again, we called again to cancel service and the next customer rep said they didn't have a record of us calling in to cancel service, we told them fine, cancel the service. To our surprise, we got billed the next month again. I called them again and by now I am pissed off, I asked to talk to a manager, explain to them we cancelled the service more than two months ago and twice but we kept getting billed. After 5 or 6 time we did this, T-mobile cancelled our service and we made sure they know that we cancel service much earlier and shouldn't have to pay for all those months. We were assured by their customer rep that everything has been cancelled and they will credit the last few months so we don't have to pay it.

    Despite already taking money out of our bank account for at least 1 or 2 months extra after we cancelled the service and told us that the remainder of the bills is taking care of, it still ended up in collection. We knew that some company make it harder for customers to leave but this is ridiculous! What they are doing is illegal rip off or their customer rep is such incompetents that is beyond words.

    For the last week I have been calling and each time I was told it would be unlocked in 24 hours. One time they tell me it wasn't unlocked because I purchased it from a T-Mobile agent store. Yet my wife and I both bought from the agent store and her phone was unlocked. Each time I am told I have to wait 24 hours and each time I am promised it will be unlocked and that I will receive a callback each time it remains locked and I don't get a call.

I called in again, spoke to another supervisor, they again said they apologize for the mistake and see they should have instead given me a full refund and made another mistake.

    Then some more days later, I randomly get a bill by mail saying I owe money to them (lol). At this point, this is a joke. I call in, speak to another supervisor - they say they again made a mistake they I should not be charged. Just ridiculous how much time I had to spend on the phone with them and how many times they continued to make mistakes. Just insane honestly. This should have never happened. Not to mention, when you call them, most of the agents do not speak good English to begin with. One of those many times I called in, and asked to be transferred to a supervisor, they transferred me to a supervisor who only spoke Spanish so had to again be transferred to another person. Total time on the phone from beginning to end was likely about 4-5 hours. Complete waste. They have some major improving to do!

    I am going to give Sprint/T-Mobile a pass on the terrible pass off rules they have put in place to switch current clients from Sprint to T-Mobile, since that is transitional in nature. Suffice to say, the process to get over to T-Mobile was convoluted and I was double charged. But the real issue is the promotion to turn in a device and receive credit under their promotions. It is now entering month #5 and I have only received a portion of the credit due for turning in a 15 month old I-phone 11 Max Pro 256GB gem of a phone in return for the 13 version.

    The Customer Service group acknowledges proof of delivery, but that their "hands are tied" as they await a ticket to be filed by the "warehouse". Upfront, it is not well explained that only a partial credit will be provided at the start. Like other reviewers, I received a notice after a couple months that "the balance may not show up as credit until month 3", but to call if it did not show. I am not being afforded any additional credits for my patience for their current breach of contract, nor the many hours I have spent over 5 months of in store visits and calls to Customer Service to get the credit as promised. Businesses slow pay bills where possible, and demand fast payments, the difference between these results in interest earnings that can be significant when applied across the corporation.

    I am left to conclude that this is a concerted effort by T-Mobile to slow pay the credit or to not pay it, thus increasing their earnings. The canned email stating the credit may not show up until the 3rd bill is proof of this intent. Shame on T-Mobile for playing the consumers a fools, representing that turning in a device will result in $799 credit while this is proving to not be true.

    I've been a customer for a very long time, I recently (3 months ago) was offered In-Store two free watches, a Samsung Galaxy Watch3 and Watch4 that would remain free so long the plan for these two devices remained active for 24 months. My bill does not reflect that these two watches are free, and customer service consistently gives me the run around. I was told the discount was only on the plan, then they changed their story saying the equipment discount could only be applied to the plan. This comes after I was told that the credit and discount would be applied by the third bill. Well the third bill is here and I still have to pay 33.75 combined for these devices that I was promised would be free.

    This unfortunately isn't the first time I've had to fight for Customer Service to uphold what In-Store Services promised. The company is a fine company until you bite on their "free" deals. I'm okay with the fact of paying the sales tax on these devices, and for paying full price on the plan for these devices, however if I'm told that the equipment will be discounted to free, they very well ought to hold up to that promise.

    So I did that and a few days later Samsung contacted me to advise that the LCD screen was internally damaged and that it isn't covered under warranty and I would have to pay $245 dollars to repair it. So I am like why couldn't insurance replace it because that is why I pay for insurance. Samsung sent me the phone back and I called yet again today. By this time I have been without my phone for almost a month but I am still responsible for paying the bill and lease and I can't use it. I have been a customer since 2008 I never had this kind of issue. This phone has a known defect with the screen most of the folks I talked to confirmed it and read some reviews online and I read that there is a class action lawsuit for some of the same issues I am complaining about. I was told I could go to the store and when I got to the store I was redirected to customer service. Is this how y'all treat your customers.

    I was stranded out of town with no access to the world could even pull up my flight information or Uber to the airport to get home. This put me in vulnerable situation and then to add insult to injury I have to talk to multiple people and still have no phone to this day. I am very tempted to cancel my service and go to another provider. This is unacceptable. I missed out on business opportunities, I got in trouble at work because I missed important calls. I work in the child protection field and it is important that my clients and other stakeholders be able to reach me. Time and time I asked to speak to management to no avail.

    If you are thinking of switching to T-Mobile DONT DO IT!!! I switched from Verizon and have had nothing but issues with T-Mobile. The service sucks! I never have phone service. When I do look at my phone and have bars, as soon as I try to make a call or text the bars disappear and all of a sudden "I don't have service". I pay extra every month for insurance, but yet when my phone got broke I had to pay $400 for a new phone (oh yeah they find any loophole to not have to honor your insurance plan). I am not happy, pleased or satisfied with T-mobile AT ALL and I will be switching back to Verizon as soon as possible. Best advice I can give is, you'd be better off with a prepaid phone than using T-mobile's service.

    Roaming T-Mobile/sprint customer Scam. Roaming with T-Mobile/sprint unlimited 2G/3G data usage scam by the company for all T-Mobile/sprint customers. More so this applies with their International travel services that they are now making people pay charges of $25 for a 7 days pass to get 4G service. Only reason We found this out was I am Currently in EU right now and had to reach out to Swisscom IT department over here since my new 5G phone from USA would not make calls or unable to use data internet. Source says just like the USA the EU is and has eliminated 2G and is starting on eliminating 3G service for the upgrade to 5G service. All basic T-Mobile/sprint customers cell phone plans will not work for calls or internet without paying for this upgrade per Swisscom IT support. Even though T-Mobile says you will have service. That is Not the case.

    Tried calls and internet with no luck.

    I normally don’t write reviews, but I thought I should to warn other people and hopefully help this from happening again. I have been an ATT cell phone customer for 10+ year, but finally decided to move over to T-Mobile to save money and get a new phone. I called a T-Mobile location and asked if I had to go to a store or if I can setup my service online and the representative told me I had to go into a store to set up a new account. So I went to the T-Mobile store located in Chino Hills, CA off Grand Ave. I spoke to a representative who helped me. While he was setting my account, he told me that I would get charged a $30 activation fee for setting up the new service, but that I could later call customer service to get the charge waived.

    The representative asked me to write my SS# on a piece of paper so that he could fill out the contract and start my service. I told him that I was not writing my SS number down and that I would rather have him give me the tablet when it was time to input the SS number. (NEVER GIVE YOUR SS# WHENEVER POSSIBLE!) Then I needed to pay for the activation service and phone. I handed my credit card and he charged it. All was done and I left the store. That very same day my credit was used and continued to be charged for 3 days and it was charged over $500 for local items near my area, like Dodger Stadium Tickets, restaurants, 7 Eleven stores, etc. I immediately locked my phone and reported these fraudulent charges to my credit card company.

    This was the only person that I gave my credit card to before and after. I did not give my card to any other merchant server days before or after. So I know this is the person who stole it and made these purchases. I called T-Mobile customer service and reported the incident. I also inquired about getting credited for the $30 activation charge as I was told by the sales representative at the store.

    The T-Mobile representative on the phone told me that they do not credit the charge or have any programs to do so, and I could have avoided it if I did it myself online. He also said that the sales representative also should have told me this. I told the representative on the phone that the sales representative did not disclose that information to me and in fact told me I had to come in the store to do all this. The representative on the phone was nice, but did not credit me the $30. So I felt even more scammed by this company. My card was stolen, got charged over 500 bucks, I have to get a new credit card, I have to change billing method for several bills now, etc.

    I had to go through all this hassle and still get stiffed for $30, which according to the representative I spoke to, is not an activation charge but a charge for using a person in the store, which I could have avoided. BEWARE OF T-MOBILE and any other merchants asking for your credit card. It’s hard to avoid it, but try or keep an eye on your account for unauthorized charges. I am questioning my decision to move over the T-Mobile because I feel cheated and lied to. This is very disappointing and bad business.

    Had worst and probably gonna be having the worst experience with T-Mobile and biggest part is that T-Mobile does not care to resolve the issue. In December, I purchased a Pixel Pro 6 with T-Mobile on a contract for 24 months by paying $150 down payment and $12.75/month for next 24 months. Sounded like a great deal so I asked them all relevant questions like what is needed from my end. They confirmed that there's nothing needed from my end except the payment. No new line required to add. No phone trade in. But when I received my bill, they charged me $31.25. I contacted them and they confirmed the offer and said it will be applied in next billing cycle as it takes at least one billing cycle to reflect the changes.

    I went ahead with it and got the phone. But what I received was a faulty phone. It drops the network to zero in different areas of my house. My call gets disconnected during conversations. Sometimes text messages does not get through, unable to send and gives 111 error. Phone calls are getting VMs sometimes does not even show a call received log due to network drop. Once I received 10 text messages after 3 days at once which were pending on 3 days prior to receipt.

    When I called regarding this, they said they're doing repairs on towers and should be okay in next 24 hours. This reason was given to me on 3 different occasions. Clearly indicating that there was no repair going on and it was just an excuse to make me hang up the phone. They did offer to send me a replacement phone which is refurbished and I am still facing the same issue. I tried Signal with old phone and it's working fine without any issues.

    Since December, I have made numerous calls about these issues sometimes almost spending more than 3 hours. And every time I called I was given different answers. For the first 2 months January and February, they confirmed the offer and accepted they will add in changes in coming billing cycle. But March they completely started to refuse the offers and started saying that the offer was only applicable to Business Account with a new line additions.

    I have a family plan and not a business plan. I was not informed of any of these details. So clearly T-Mobile representative made a mistake and made me buy the device under false information. At one point, executive literally said the executive did not want to help me. One said they will apply the promotion and will reflect its bill. One said their superiors can add the override, But all of these were excuses.

    Now I am stuck with a faulty refurbished phone with faulty service and I am asked to pay the full price. I have been a customer with T-Mobile for 7 years now and this is how I am getting treated. Also on my many occasions, I was asked to change my plan to Magenta plan so I pay more money to them. T-Mobile has set a great example of how Corporates do not care about loyal customers instead make them buy and be stuck with them for years to come. Definitely not happy with T-Mobile customer services and Will NEVER RECOMMEND T-Mobile Anymore.

    Every time I have ever entered a T-Mobile store it has been a customer service nightmare. I end up with surprise charges that were not communicated to me properly and I have spent countless hours going round and round with in-store representatives about this. They don't care. It's clear they're just there to get a paycheck. I have no clue what a T-Mobile customer rep is paid for in-store, but I can guess it's somewhere in the low to minimum wage level which I'm sure contributes to a lot of the lack of enthusiasm and care for customer experience. The only saving grace for this company which is why I gave it a 3-star review vs anything lower is the Texas based phone support I have received by 2 gentleman who took the time, after the damage was done, to explain why I went from a $115 bill to a $350 bill.

    However, customer service is not the only issue I experienced with T-Mobile. I often drive from Texas to Florida for personal reasons and rely heavily on my phone's navigation services to get me there safely. I lost signal frequently on the drive and often found myself pulling over, searching for service, or continuing on praying that I could navigate well enough on my own. I experienced signal issues ALL THE TIME at home as well. Friends and family were not receiving my text messages despite my phone stating they had been delivered. Calls were dropping left and right. I got REALLY tired of paying $125.00 a month for a knock off T-Mobile exclusive brand phone and cruddy service, so I left.

    The transition from T-Mobile to Verizon has been nothing short of a nightmare and ties into the aforementioned bill going from $114 to $350. I will NEVER, EVER return to T-Mobile. EVER. I do not, and will not EVER recommend their services to anyone who wants to pay a reasonable price for services. The service and signal is GARBAGE. Heed my warnings, please! I do not often go out of my way to post a negative review as I understand the impact it can have on a business but trust me... this review is well earned.

No biggie. It was very small. Then it failed to connect to the internet where I used to get great service, like my house, with Sprint. From day 1 the phone was defective, before I dropped it.

    After being very happy with T-Mobile's service for 7.5 years, I cannot believe that I have spent 1.5 months in customer service hell. I went into the store on 2/13/22 and was signed up for a plan (without my knowledge) that I specifically requested not to be placed into. Then, I received a follow up call from customer service to get feedback on my experience in the store. I told them what happened and proceeded for another 2 months to attempt to get my planned reverted back to the original plan (which I was then told no longer existed). I spoke to a customer service rep who took all of my credit card information and then hung up on me. I immediately called back and found out that they should have never requested my credit card info...

    It's probably now on the dark web. A supervisor then told me to go into the store to change my account. The first store told me that I had to go to a corporate store. I drove to the corporate store immediately after and they said that I had to call. Then, after spending $4.75/gallon driving around to no avail, I have three customer service reps treat me like I am unable to read a bill and one offer me a $20 credit like it was a miracle for God. This is after they overcharged me $100. I've noticed that customer service has been suffering, but I never expected that after speaking to thirteen T-Mobile reps, that my loyalty is not at all valued (only three of them were nice and really attempted to help).

    Keep in mind that this review is being given by someone in a rural area. Our service (phone and internet) is terrible. When I called to report the poor service, I'm told I have won a free phone watch. I'll come back to this later. Anyway, we check my download speeds. After going through their four recommendations, my download speed went from 45, 29, 14 and then 4 Mbps. So she says there is a problem with the tower and that she will report it and get back to me in 78 hours. Well, she did call back and said there was an eagle on the tower and wildlife would take care of it and it should be corrected within 78 hours. We know where our tower is, no eagle.

    Well, several weeks ago by and we stay around 5 Mbps. We call back and she wants me to go through the whole thing again. I say no, not gonna happen. They tell us they will have the problem corrected within, you guessed it, 78 hours. We discuss this and the watch I had won was now costing me $12.45 per month and it doesn't even work properly. They say they will take the phone off the account. Guess what? Watch is still on my account and I still have terrible service. I would just turn everything off but, as far as internet speeds, I probably will not get anything any better. Point is, T-mobile promised higher speeds and didn't deliver.

    I had a Sprint account for my flip phone for years. However, due to T-Mobile's takeover of Sprint, we were told T-Mobile would no longer support phones like mine, and I could come into one of their stores to receive a free new phone and continue my account. We were going to do that. On March 24 I was looking for a clinic in an unfamiliar neighborhood. I tried to give the clinic a call, but got T-Mobile instead. First, an automated message demanded that I give them my Sprint account number to continue. Since I don’t carry that around in my car(!), I yelled at the recording, which did get me a real person. He started into a spiel about the switch to T-Mobile. I said we knew all that, and I had an emergency so he should just get off my phone and let me use it. He asked for my phone number (he couldn't see that?) and then said he couldn’t release my phone until I gave him my account number. I was furious, and finally hung up.

    After more searching, I parked and tried to call the clinic again. I got a different T-Mobile representative, who said that he would need the password for my account in order to release my phone. I asked him on what date my phone service was supposed to be cut off (they keep changing their mind - I believe now it's extended again). He wanted to talk about something else, but I insisted on an answer. Finally he said on March 30. I said, "So this is March 24, why do I not have the use of my phone?! I’m a Grandma sitting here in a parking lot – what if there were a car jacker pointing a gun at me, and I can’t use my phone." He said he sympathized.

    I eventually gave up and went home, steaming. That night I called T-Mobile and told them to cancel our account immediately. The following day I checked if I could make a call, which again went straight to the T-Mobile recording. We went to Verizon, got me a new account, new phone and new number. In addition to this being a dangerous thing for them to do, it appears T-Mobile was trying to lock those of us who needed to switch phones into continuing with them by cutting off our phone service until we complied. They definitely LOST A CUSTOMER.

    Was with Sprint was very happy. But had to upgrade to 5g for T-mobile. T-mobile sent me a new phone for free. Happy so far! Got the new phone. It never charged correctly. Tried everything. Different chargers, called customer service, and went in the store. No one could help me! Talk again to T-mobile and the only option is to buy a new phone. So I ordered new phone. It was sent but was never received. Had to call T-mobile to tell them the phone was misdelivered. They opened a claim, said I would hear back in 7 days. They never called.

    I called today as I still needed a new phone. Opened a chat with a rep, was very nice and helpful. Got phone ordered. I was told there would be a $30 customer service charge. I said no, this wasn't on the bill last time. They did take the charge off. Next, they said there would be a shipping fee of $6.99. Again I said, "Not last time." She said, "Yes there was." "No there was not, I have the bill they sent me to sign." The only charge that was the same for both transactions was an $18 sales tax which I was fine with. If you go with T-mobile just beware of extra charges!

    I attempted to switch my phone service to T-Mobile in February 2022. On that evening of activation, everything worked well. However, by the following day, I had no service on my phone and nothing worked. I called T-Mobile explaining what had happened and troubleshooting was done. Because all attempts failed, the customer representative promised that I would receive a refund. However, over 2 months later I am yet to receive this refund. Every time I call or visit I am promised that it will be processed, but to no avail. This has been so frustrating and annoying. As such a well-renowned company, there is no reason that they should deny me my refund when I could not benefit from the service.

    I attempted to get a mobile device from this company. It was capable of servicing my address. I was questioned about my physical address and was assured they supported the area. When I got the device it operated poorly and then stopped operating completely after 48 hours. Four phone calls later each phone call last name 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours and 30 minutes. 5 days after I got the device I call to cancel the account. I got a hold of T-Mobile's customer service department to cancel the account ship the device back. Somehow the first technician assured me that they would cancel the account.... But Somehow my name is not attached to the account, it is attached to a different person that I do not know at all.

    It makes it very hard to cancel or modify an account that I do not have access to. The account access is walk to the account owner And cannot be accessed by the service representative apparently. So at this point in time I am being billed for a device that does not work, and an account that I do not have access to cancel. This leaves me to blame the one person in this scenario which would be the original service representative that impacted the account, which directly comes back to T-Mobile's responsibility in training their technicians and giving them the ability to solve customer service issues. Every service representative following the first was just as scripted and unable to do anything. I'm currently still being billed and do not know what to do. Apparently I'm going to have to cancel my credit card, stop them from billing me and then take him to court to get reimbursed, this company is a nightmare.

The man immediately charged my bank account 60.00 for 2 sim cards and said all I have to do is put them in my phone and watch. I said "watch really". He said yes. I went to the T-Mobile store to have them do it because of the watch.

    After being there for a long time the rep told me that in order to switch that I would have to pay 800.00 for the phone and 341.00 for the watch along with termination fees and T-Mobile would reimburse me. Uh, Nope. I backed out and wanted to send the sim cards back as We never finished the process as the phone was locked and the sim card was rejected. This was March 11th 2022. I just got off the 6th phone call to T-Mobile and they refuse to refund my money for the sim cards. Don't go anywhere near these scam artists. I got 0 for my 60.00 and the rep warned me that T-Mobile will try to take a monthly fee out as well even though I never activated anything. I now have to go to the bank and pay 45.00 to block them.

    Well, I first signed up for T-Mobile's Home Internet in February because the internet in Flagstaff isn't exactly the greatest. The sign up went smoothly, however that was possibly the smoothest part of dealing with this whole service. The support is absolutely non existent, despite having the ability to contact them 2-3 different ways. After this, my entire experience took a turn. While the support is friendly, their structure doesn't make sense, and the scripts they go through just eats up time. When my first months bill came around, which was roughly 2 weeks after I signed up (which was already weird), they charged me $70 when I was only supposed to be paying $55, or $50 with autopay (which I'll get into in a second).

    So when I called, I was told I was going to be paying $50 for my home internet, $10 for some tablet, and $10 for an extra line they added, all without me asking for any of it. I sent the tablet back and I let them know that this was severely incorrect, and they said they would "launch an investigation". Well, the investigation ended up not ever happening, so I never found out who added this to my account. A day later, they shut my internet off without any warning. After calling AGAIN, I was told I was behind on a payment. They were charging me another $40 for something that they couldn't explain, and another $20 for a restoration fee. I asked to be signed up for autopay, they claimed they did. a few weeks later on 03/02/22 my internet gets shut down again.

    This time, I was told I owe $20. I decided id just pay their stupid $20 and just deal with it because it was only $20. 8 days later on 03/10/22, I was told I owed another $48.01. I paid, even though I did let them know this absolutely could not have been correct. 13 days later, on 03/23/22, they charge me ANOTHER $50, for a total of $118, when I'm supposed to be paying $50. Yesterday, on 04/05/22, I canceled my service and was promised a refund for the $118. Today on 04/06/22 I sent their modem/router back, and called them to make sure my refund was going to be processed and that they received confirmation for the return. They tell me I owe $77.56, and that I was going to be refunded $7.

    Well, after conversation, they claim I never sent the tablet back. They talk to their phone people and their management and claim I was using the tablet and the line last month (even after they canceled the line in February). I had never even opened the tablet, let alone set it up or even used it. I found their UPS tracking date which stated I returned the item on February 8th of 2022. This company just does not care about their customers. I have been shown this multiple times in the few months I tried to use this service. Absolutely no consideration or care. I would give this a negative review if I could.

    TMOBILE - ARGGGGGG. I am so frustrated with TMOBILE. I have been a satisfied Verizon customer for over a decade but ended up needing to switch to another carrier when we moved because at our new home for some odd reason Verizon did not work. Based on a referral from the previous homeowner we switch to Tmobile. Here is a synopsis of the challenges I have had thus far.

    1. I order the phones and tell the agent I am going to trade in my two iPhone X 256gb models for my two Verizon lines. They say that I will get $800 trade in per phone. 2. I drop my phone a couple days later cracking my screen prior to activating or even opening or receiving the phone I order. I call Tmobile and say I want to cancel one of the iPhone 13s and just use an older phone that I have because my trade in is no longer valid as I broke it. 3. The Tmobile rep says, "Don’t worry - You can trade the one remaining non broken iPhone 10 and get the $800 credit AND get do a buy one get one promotional trade in credit." I ask repeatedly if they are sure I can do that and they reassure me that I can. I ask for them to put it in writing because that doesn’t sound correct. They reassure me that they put it on my account notes.

    4. I get the phones and take them into the Tmobile store to activate them. Then in store Tmobile rep says that I can not use both promotions but can see that they agent noted that on my account and if I call customer service they can get it applied. We agree to do the data transfer and swap my phones from Verizon to Tmobile.

    5. Over the next week I spend over 12 hours trying to get my bill sorted out. I speak to a supervisor who promises me that she will call me back on Monday after the holiday weekend and she can see the notes on my account. She never calls me back. I wait an extra week and call back in and leave a message for her. I call in and speak to another agent. I lose connection and try to call back. The new agent will not speak to me as I don’t have pin. She tells me the only way she can help is if I go to a brick and mortar store to get a pin. I drive to the brick and mortar store and they will not help me there. They say I have to call customer service. I tell them customer service told me to go to the store.

    I call back into Tmobile. The next agent was able to verify me easily. The next agent who now says that she may not be able to apply the promotion to my phone and now neither promotion will go in because it has been too long. After a long conversation she is able to apply the one BOGO deal to my account. DEAR LORD PLEASE GRANT ME PATIENCE!!! At this point, I realize that I am not going to get anywhere and the frustration and time spent is not worth it. So now, I am living with a bill that is $32/month higher than originally promised. Every time I get this bill it will remind me of my frustrations and I will share my story with others to hopefully help them avoid this same problem.

    AND, the cell phone service with Tmobile is not really better. Yes, I have coverage at the new house BUT the connection speed is not better, the cell phone coverage off the beaten path is certainly way worse and if I could go back to a different carrier I would. I am disappointed that for a brand that claims to have the best customer service that what I experienced has been far from good.

    Update: I had customer care call - a “Senior rep” who promised to follow up with me in 4 days to see if my GPS is working. 2 weeks later - still no call. I feel like Tmobile is full of empty promises. If you are considering swapping over to Tmobile I would highly recommend trying them out as our experience has been so bad thus far. I miss Verizon so much - I just wish that they had service at our new home.

    Update 2/18/22. I call in to see how much it is to cancel my account. They offer me a mobile booster where I can strengthen my call signal. This means I will have to carry two products. I live in the middle of a large metropolitan area. I should not have poor connection driving down the street or at my house. They also offered a $30 rebate. 1hr 17 min later still not sure if anything is going to change. The tech is telling me that I need to use LTE instead of 5g so I don’t have so many dropped calls. Nothing changed.

    Update - I have been very busy the last month so I have not made the time to figure out how to cancel my service - however I have had THREE promises to have a mobile booster sent out and have been promised to have call backs NONE of which happened. So, in conclusion - I would HIGHLY advise against coming to TMOBILE. I came from Verizon which was wonderful with the exception of not having service where we have moved to.

    The 5G phone I received has been a headache from the get-go. The tower locations are not everywhere, so if you get too far from a 5G tower, it switches to 4G. But the bad news is, it takes a couple of seconds and the phone does operate while it does it. You wind up missing what people are saying to you and you can't hear them. Don't buy a T Mobile phone with an "A" in front of the number, they are junks. I have had more than one, and hate them all. T Mobile wants to force you into buying $1200 phones.

    We were with Sprint for years. We switched from Verizon and saved a ton of money. We had decent coverage and reliable service most everywhere we went. Most importantly, the service at our house, which is in a rural area, was great. Then T-Mobile bought Sprint. We immediately had poor service at our house and half the coverage we had with Sprint. Dropped calls were the norm. We got so used to our calls dropping that we started talking in short, rapid sentences, to get as much of the call in before it inevitably dropped.

    Calls while moving were even worse. That was how we were forced to live for nearly a year. Switching back to Verizon is not an option; we just can't afford those astronomical rates. The only saving grace is that the internet service at home was still pretty good. Until today, March 29, 2022. As of today, our old Sprint internet router is shut down. When you call Customer Service, their attitude is "Too Bad, So Sad" and "Sucks to be you, don't it?" Our only option is to acquire a T-Mobile router. The problem is that T-Mobile and Sprint have been one company for nearly a year and they still haven't integrated their systems, specifically their billing.

    As a result, to be able to continue using the internet at our house, we need to add separate a T-Mobile account to our household. That means two bills to pay every month instead of one. And there's all kinds of fees tacked on so that no matter what you are quoted for service, when the bill comes it is for nearly twice as much. I am leaving a One-Star Review and I am being generous. If there was a Zero Star option I would take it. I have never felt so disrespected as I have after talking to T-Mobile Customer Support. Their attitude is so horribly condescending and the reps see nothing whatsoever wrong with the half-** solutions they propose. I suspect senior management at Sprint took MASSIVE payouts when they sold their company, and I'll bet they sleep very well at night. AND I'll bet they all have Verizon phones in their pockets.

    I switched from Boost/Sprint to Tmobile in October of 2021. As part of the switch we traded in two Apple phones. When presented the program in store I was quoted a monthly service plan of $110. My first bill came, it was $164. I called and stated my case to the main customer service number, after about an hour on the phone they agreed to credit me the difference and have the plan updated as it was presented to me in store. It never happened, the bill came in November and still at $164, same process with calling and arguing on the phone.

    They again committed to fixing it and credited the difference and said it would be "escalated" to a manager to get fixed. This has happened every month since October and still not fixed. This month, March, they refused to issue the difference and pretty much said nothing would be done. I even went to the store where I originally signed up, they were rude, unhelpful and could have cared less. T-mobile cannot be trusted, be sure to get every detail of what the sales person is quoting and promising you. They will not fix anything once they are billing you the higher amount. I'm stuck for two years due to the two phones received as part of the switch. You can bet I will be gone as soon as this is up and will make sure anybody who is thinking of switching to them thinks twice.

    First I have to call them about 7 times to resolve an issue with my account, then I decided to go personally to an T-Mobile store 4167 located in 5561 Broadway Bronx, NY. 10463 and spoke with the manager (if I can call him that) **. Big mistake. I asked him for help with my account and he doesn’t shows any interest in helping me and told me to call the company. I explained him that I had one week calling the company and they keep transferring me to several departments but no one helps me then he told me that he can’t do nothing about it.

    I got very frustrated for his attitude and told him that he wasn’t even trying to resolve the issue to which he replied, "So simple get out of my store," I refused to leave without any help and he told me to get out or he will call the police. I really felt insulted, humiliated and disrespected because I went to that establishment just to pay my account and fix the wrong amount that they have in the system. That was a really terrible experience and I don’t wish nobody to pass through something like that.

    I switched to TMobile because their website stated that I would be able to receive service at my home. What a terrible idea. I also purchased their home internet, which was actually rather good even though I only had two bars, but it was really good service. First thing that happened was, no service from my cell phone at my house, then TMobile shuts off my internet while I am at work with no notice.

    When I contact them about it, they say they have no idea what is going on. What?!! I then argue with them, contacting the state attorney general who then receives a letter from TMobile telling me to return all of my equipment to the store of purchase and the matter would be closed. Two months later, after returning the equipment, in the original packaging, fully functioning, with all accessories that came with the equipment, I get $448.44 taken out of my account without my knowledge. I have dealt with slimy companies before, but this takes the cake. I will NEVER recommend TMobile to anyone and I will let all of my friends and family know what a horrible company TMobile truly is.

    In early February we signed up for T-Mobile’s Home internet based upon the fact their website showed it was available in our area and was advertised as being faster and cheaper that what we currently had. We ordered it through the website, but once we received the equipment (Including the 5G Gateway router, Synch UP Drive device & a set of headphones that were part of the deal-though you must pay for them in installments) we found that we were not able to get a strong enough 5G signal for it to be effective. We live in a small rural town, so we knew that was a possibility. It was disappointing, but not a huge deal.

    The issues started with the return/cancellation process and then charges after the fact. In calling to cancel the account they couldn’t do it over the phone because we needed a specific pin to identify our identity…but since we only had Home Internet with them and not our cell service, we were never required to set up a pin. We were then asked to visit a T-Mobile store which for us is about an hour drive away. Once I arrived, I worked with one of T-Mobile’s employees at the store (who was awesome) to call into the T-Mobile call center to try to cancel our account. It took him and I together 97 minutes on the phone to cancel the account. We were transferred between 6 or 7 different people just to cancel a home internet line and a Synch Up drive line. Each time we were transferred the new person knew nothing about the situation and we would have to explain the whole process and I needed verify myself again.

    Since I had signed up for Home Internet through their website, everything also had to be done on the phone and the local store’s hands were tied regarding them being able to help us. Once we finally got everything canceled, the equipment had to be mailed in. After being transferred to more people, I was finally provided with a mailing label and instructed to box the equipment up and sent it back to them. The Gateway, Synch UP Drive (Which was never opened nor used), and the headphones were all put in the original box that it was sent to us in and I mailed it back. (I also created a video showing that all three items were in the box.)

    At this point I thought we were finally all set. Fast forward a few weeks and we were charged the $60 internet fee for the month and then $110 for the Synch UP Drive and Headphones. I called again and this time, like last time, I can’t get any help over the phone from because we do not have a pin. So, I drive the hour to the same T-Mobile store again. A T-Mobile employee called in with me again and before we do anything else we get a Pin set up. I then have to hang up and then call back in with the Pin that was just set up. I'm told it isn't valid. We then must verify who I am again using the employee's code and are then transferred to find out about the charges for internet and for the equipment. We explain the situation and ask about the charges and are shifted between 3 more different people to get answers.

    Finally, after I ask to talk to a manager, I'm told that the manager is busy with another caller. I am put on hold again, so the person on the phone can go talk to a manager. This happens multiple times for 5-10 mins at a time and finally get told that they can prorate our $60 internet charge for the time we had the device in hand (Turned out to be supposedly $19 which is fine, despite not being able to use the internet). They also say that they will check with the warehouse to verify that all the equipment is there. They agree to email me once verified and will drop the $110 charge at that point. I agree. All told this time around is another 90+ minutes on the phone, plus the hour drive home.

    It has now been 2 weeks since this latest trip to the T-Mobile Store and still no communication from corporate verifying that the equipment arrived (They verify that the Gateway router made it as we were not charged for that, but we are still charged for the other two items despite all three being shipped together in the same box) ... and still no prorating of the monthly payment. At this point between driving, phone calls from the T-Mobile store and phone calls from home, I have over 7 1/2 hours invested and have still been charged for things they agreed I wouldn’t be.

    At this point I think we are just washing our hands of this process and will never do business with T-Mobile nor recommend them to anyone else. We were set up for Auto-pay so the money was already removed from our account, but I just don't want to waste any more time on this. Honestly, the employees at the store itself were amazing, but the whole process to get anything accomplished on the phone is so much more difficult than it needs to be. If the purpose in making it so hard is a tactic to frustrate people into staying signed up for your accounts, it backfired with our family--we will not consider T-Mobile in the future. It is too bad that the good employees working at the store have to be overshadowed by a really frustrating and crappy process.

    I obtained T-Mobile service on Jan. 15, 2022- I brought my current smart phones with me from another carrier. 1st issue - They were to reimburse me for coming over by paying off my current device of $500.00- this was a joke- it was difficult to process and finally they indicated that I was not eligible once I had their service.

    2nd issue- My bill was to be 86.00 monthly and they billed me on Jan. 25, 2022 for the entire 86.00 and I had not even had their service 1 month. (I did pay that total.) 3rd issue - the service was horrible- dropped calls, no service in areas that you would think you would have service, had to move around my house to talk on the phone. very frustrating and irritating. so I switched to another carrier on Feb. 20, 2022.

    4th issue- They billed me for an entire month that I did not have their service and sent me to their pre-collection debt service. I inquired as to why I was being billed another 86.00 for only 5 days of service and they indicated that is their policy. No matter when I switched carriers I still had to pay. I paid this to get them out of my hair, but this is wrong on every level and I felt as though there should have been an adjustment and I only paid the 5 days I had left on my bill not for the entire bill of Feb. 16, 2022- March 16, 2022. I hope others read this and ask additional questions prior to obtaining their service. They are a rip off and and their service is horrible. Though I am paying more with my new carrier it is worth it and remember you get what you pay for!

    Most frustrating experience! I signed up for T-Mobile internet service, then tried to cancel and return equipment. My previous internet provider agreed to redo all of our cable lines, upgrade us etc so I decided to stay with them. I called T-Mobile customer service to cancel and they would NOT let me because I didn’t have my passcode, which was a lie, it was correct, they just refused to cancel. They could have sent a code to my phone or email but they refused. They said I had to go to a local T-Mobile store.

    So we go to the store and the sales manager said they don’t do this but will help me…fast forward to an hour and half later….The manager was getting the runaround from T-Mobile people. He kept trying to give them a code to cancel but they kept saying ‘invalid’. He was getting frustrated asked ‘what do you want me to do?’

    He finally got a code to cancel and we went through the process. Then he asks if they could verify my email, where they will send UPS label to send back equipment, apparently you can’t just drop it off. She said they had it, but then when she checked, they didn’t have it. He gave it to her and asked if they could just send the label to the store so we’d have it. Nope! We have to wait for the next billing cycle. Whaat? They’re going to bill me??? I don’t think so! I commend the sale manager for being tenacious and not giving up. I still don’t know if they’re even going to send the label through email. I can’t believe a company operates like this! So deceptive and corrupt. To not even let you cancel??

Once I signed up and called to set up my iPhone they said Ohh no we can't set this phone up it has a bad barcode! Then they conned me into purchasing a new iphone and said we will credit you $400 dollars once you receive your new phone. This was another T-Mobile lie, they again after receiving phone said we cannot honor our word, there is no way for us to apply a $400 dollar credit.

    I then told them I will be returning the phone and transferring my two lines to my old trustworthy provider and will be complaining to Better Business Bureaus and give you bad reviews. They said ok and hung up and then proceeded to lock me out of my account so I could not transfer numbers right away. Large corporate companies like this are taking advantage and think we need their lame service but we don't.

    I was quite shocked that the service is generally pretty decent as well as the price points offered direct and those offered through MVNOs. The catch is that our older phones literally stopped working one day and we're forced to buy newer phones. We weren't so happy about that, but I guess it is time to move on. With the newer phones we got, they all so far worked flawlessly and T-mobile is the only carrier to have 5G on the phones too. We have sim cards spread out between all the carriers based on level of use so it's as cheap as possible for us overall and I can say that one carrier has great signal, T-mobile has the technology and the other is just there and has wider compatibility, but trails a little on technology. I'm in NYC and always go with pre-paid to cap the cost and surprises that can happen. So far, consistent experience. I wouldn't dare use post-paid because of the taxes and potential surprise bills.

If it was not for website prompting me to add, I would have never added them to my cart. The stores are not ready to take it back, customer service is not ready to solve this matter, in short I would say I got tricked into buying 3 airpods at full price.

    I want to change T-Mobile due to very bad customer service and their fake promises. I have a physical damage on my phone. Assurant change it to a refurbished one after paying the deductible and the replacement one wasn't working well. I called tmobile, they send me another refurbished one and wasn't working right as well. I called them again, one of the representatives told me, "Will send you a new device to the store." I went there and it was refurbished as well and got hot quickly and the apps glitch and frozen suddenly.

    I called them again, they told me, "You know what will send you a new device. We will call you in 72 business hrs to take the right address." this call was on February 8, 2022. till yesterday I called them 5 times, every representative tell different thing and they didn't solve my problem and they have an altitude the last one told me that, "We apologize about the misunderstanding that happens and we punished the representative that who lies to you and we can't do anything but send you another refurbished one." That's it

    I was offered a free 5G phone to switch from Metro (by T-mobile) to T-Mobile. The service is slow. The 5G is even slower and the "Free" Samsung Galaxy A71 is the lousiest smartphone that I have ever used. Not really free. I had to pay for the phone, but I get $5/ mo. off of my bill, which more than doubled when I came over from Metro. $30/mo. before. I now pay $65 and that is after my $5 reimbursement for purchasing the phone outright. The service and the phone are a major disappointment, to say the least, 14 months into the contract. I can't wait for it to expire.

    I attempted to change my cellular service to T-Mobile. I called on Friday, 25th February 2022 to set up service. I went to the store that evening to purchase one equipment and was told that the account setup had not been completed, called Customer Service again. Since it was late, I called back the next morning, I was told everything is complete, I can now go to the store and purchase whatever device I wanted. I returned to the store a second time and was told that the order was still pending. On Sunday the 27th Feb I called again, talked with three different reps and was told three completely different things. I decided this is not going to work, so I called to cancel the account and was told they could not, I need to wait until I received the Sim card.

    Received the sim card, call back six time today Wednesday March 2..Again and again I was asked; why I had changed my mind. I was told around 5:30, the rep needs to look into this and will call me back. Two hours passed, no phone call. I called back and ask for a supervisor, on hold again for 40 mins, finally talk with a Raymond, he stated that he will cancel the account, but he needs to call another department, I am hearing the conversation and his fellow worker, told him, there was no need to request the sim card back, since I had purchased no equipment, just cancel the service.

    Raymond proceeded to say, he will completed the cancellation, then he purposely drop the call. He then called back claiming he could not hear me. When I called back the rep said they could not connect me to him and that he wrote in the notes that he had return my call, but I did not answer. She stated she needs thirty minutes then she will call me back, at that point I had more than enough, so rather than explode, I told her I was ending the call. Deceptions, lies, rude and just pure ignorant behaviour. I had two friends that were also going to T-Mobile, I strongly advise them not to do so, and I am glad I made that suggestion. No excuse for this!

    I have been with T-Mobile for over eight years. I am a post-paid customer. I have never paid my bill late. I really enjoyed the old T-Mobile. The company T-Mobile has become after merging with Sprint - horrible. First, let's start with the Data Breach. T-Mobile let ALL OF MY ACCOUNT INFORMATION OUT! How could they let their network security get so bad? I am still having to deal with this issue on multiple fronts.

    Second, their Customer Service is just horrible certain times of the day. Maybe they aren’t North American based, I am not sure. What I am sure is there is a significant communications gap between the English I speak and understand, and the English some of their Representatives speak and understand. The wait times are horrendous. Can honestly say I have talked with T-Mobile more this year than any other year, except maybe my first, when I set up service. I am having a technical problem, which I am pretty sure it is not my phone, but maybe the network connection on their end needs to be refreshed.

    After waiting for about 30 minutes, the Representative transferred me FINALLY to a Tech Support Analyst, but during the transfer the call dropped from T-Mobile’s end. The Representative called back and insinuated that I disconnected the call while I was being transferred!(?) It’s time to change providers. I write this in the hopes others will be spared this frustration AND maybe someone from T-Mobile will start a companywide effort to get back to the way they were when they were smaller, and more nimble. Until that happens, trust me when I say, they just don’t care.

    Updated on 04/13/2022: T-Mobile's Assurance Wireless does not accommodate customers who are deaf and provides no contact options to reach the company except phone calls and snail mail. I am having a constant issue with my service and device but there is nobody to reach out to. I filed a BBB complaint and received one response via email. I followed up with that person via email regarding the continued issue and am completely ignored.

    T-Mobile and Assurance Wireless do not accommodate people with hearing disabilities. The device they provided me is not compatible with TTY or RTT, which I need to be able to communicate. I tried informing them of this disability accommodation request before shipping a phone but again - no options to contact anyone. I have my own device that does meet my disability needs and does work with my TTY but they have locked the SIM card and refuse to unlock it for at least a year. I don't need nor want the phone they sent me; it doesn't work with my hearing disability. I need a device that works on 4G/5G network and connects to a TTY device.

    Original Review: I signed up for Assurance Wireless Lifeline and ACP. A couple days after receiving notification that I had been approved, they sent me a message that the phone was on back order. They never gave me the option to select a device or necessary features for my hearing loss, such as RTT or hearing aid compatibility or closed captioning. They showcase dozens of phones on their website and not only do they not allow customers to select a device, they “pick” the only device that is on back order and then refuse to allow customers the option to receive a different device that is in stock. No customer service at all. No option to reach out to anyone.

    I was one of the many who did not realize I needed to disable find my iPhone before sending in. So, not only did I lose my promotion and have to pay 1000 dollars for a phone, but they have my old phone and won’t send it back to me. I went into a store and called customer service before sending it in, and neither of them reminded me to disable find my iPhone. All they had to do was call or send a text with explicit instruction. As soon as I find a better plan I am out and would no longer recommend highly like I used to. They are like every other cell phone company. Maybe worse because they pretend to have great customer service.

    I was on the phone today 4 and half hrs with a problem no one could help me with. I even called the store they put in a ticket. Nothing. No one had answers. A day wasted. I only wanted to upgrade my phone, they charged my card but I can’t sign my documents and I don’t know why and neither do they. This by far the worst service ever.

    I've been with T-Mobile for over 7 years and I'm over them at this point. The service is so so and sometimes you can get good cellular reception and other times there's no signal. Their customer service department can be a hit or miss depending on who you talk to. Sometimes our representatives are friendly and other times they are rude. I find that they have very little patience to deal with customers when frustrated. Like I recently upgraded to a new phone and they had sent the phone out and I ran into some issues with UPS in regards to receiving the phone. I was very angry and frustrated over the situation.

    T-Mobile tried to sympathize with me but did very little to offer any real solutions on how to handle the situation. It was like I pretty much had to tell them what I wanted them to do but at the same time they couldn't think of that on their own. I find out if I'm frustrated and I called and I asked to speak to a manager the representative seems more determined to try to help me. And then I still have to reiterate that I want to speak to a manager because I'm really not interested in talking to them and I need someone of higher authority. At this point I am looking to leave T-Mobile and try a different cellular service. The prices keeps going up but I feel that the service doesn't necessarily match when I'm paying.

    My elderly father was on my AT&T Family Plan for 19 years and I paid the entire bill; so when we recently switched to T-Mobile we put the account under his name because he would receive a senior discount. We made it very clear when we set up the account that I manage everything for him and I needed to be authorized to make changes and get information on the account. I was added as an authorized user. Tonight I discovered a charge from T Mobile on my credit card that I never approved. Oddly it was not on the Credit Card that is set up to pay my T-Mobile account. The customer service agent would not even give me general information on what the charge could possibly be because she stated I was not listed on the account or authorized to talk about it. I told her that I just wanted to know what the charge was and that it may not be connected to my T-Mobile account because a different credit card than the one was listed on the account was charged.

    I asked if there was a different number I could call before I dispute the charge. The women told me in broken English that I was calling the correct number but I am not authorized to discuss the account. I explained that the charge is on MY CREDIT CARD and I am authorized to inquire about charges to MY CREDIT CARD. The women refused to help me.

    I have now disputed the charge with my credit card company. They say the charge has to be reported as fraud and my credit card number is now cancelled. I can not use that card to pay any bills now and I have to change all my auto pays set up on the card after it arrives in about ten days, Requiring several phone calls to explain why my auto pay will be rejected on the credit account. All of the inconvenience could have been avoided had I not been told I was not authorized to discuss a T-Mobile account that we had already taken the steps to authorize me on, or better yet the customer service agent had tried to give me a general idea of what the charge was on my credit card.

    Metro by T-Mobile is the most unethical company with the worst customer service that I have ever seen. What's more deplorable is they sold my son who's in the Air Force a phone before he left over seas with the promise that he would have service at his new duty station. He paid for the new iPhone outright and only had the service for about a week before leaving the country. Upon his arrival in country he discovered he didn't have any service. They refused to honor the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act and end his contract and unlock his phone so he could get a different service. Even though it was paid off.

    After weeks of call and trying to get the situation resolved he was told that he would need to go to the corporate office in Dallas Texas to have the phone unlocked. Meanwhile he is stationed in Okinawa and even with a power of attorney they wouldn't talk to myself or my husband. After six months he was sent a rude email and his phone was finally unlocked. So now that his phone is finally unlocked we will make it known that no one should do business with this disgustingly unethical company.

    I'm generally satisfied with the service for normal usage. But on one occasional I had to make an international call to Hong Kong. The call lasted for a few seconds as it went straight to the recipient's voice mail and I hung up immediately. They charged $4.50 per call! In this day and age I don't know how they can justify this outrageous ripoff!
