    Yes I chose T-Mobile because of the. Reliability. I pay monthly for 3 screen covers and 3 insurance policies. My bill is between 380 and 310 a month. I have a crack in one of my cameras on the back (only because I didn’t know they offered screen covers for the cameras) and I’m trying to get some support and I’m being told I need to pay $99 to get supporter. I don’t have an additional $99. That’s why I pay insurance monthly. I want the company T-MOBILE to really look into this. Insure should be quick, easy and repair inclusive. I want to call T-Mobile when I have an issue and because I pay my bill on time and I pay for so much protection I want to be protected....not charged! A supervisor with T-Mobile said I could not make a complaint.

    I bought a iPhone 12pro brand new. Cost is over $1000 charge. I start having call drop. No internet either. I call them. They say it was the ship because of the new service 5G they Change that. Same thing. It keep having the problem. They say it was the phone so they told me to call Apple. Wish I did call Apple. They say that it was something with service Network but they willing to help me By replacing the phone with every refurbished phone. I told them I just paid over $1000. For a new phone and that last them a week that phone wasn’t good. Why I should get an refurbished phone if I just paid for a brand new phone.

    Since then Apple and T-mobile are passing the ball and have not replaced my phone. This practice needs to be investigating. When customer buy an new phone and immediately there is a problem with that phone they should replace that phone with a new phone not a refurbished phone. Isn’t the customer false that there is a problem with a brand new phone that is the company false.

    Bought a phone and a connection with T Mobile and I do not have any coverage in my area. I live in a small town, and T Mobile tried for several months to help, because my calls were not coming through and when they did they quickly dropped. Nothing seemed to work, so we thought it might be the phone, had it replaced. That didn't work either, just poor reception in this area with T Mobile. Decided to change providers, now T Mobile will not unlock my phone.

    Transferred over from Sprint to Tmobile. In 2018 purchased two phones. I was told that the lease was only going to be 18 months. After the lease was over, I continued to be charged $55 for the phones. I called Sprint and Tmobile multiple times and nothing was mentioned about the month-to-month lease on the phones after the completion of the 18 months. I have been paying $55 for an additional 18 months and now I am out of $990.

    I would give them 0 stars. The most horrific experience after being their customer for 11 years almost... Worst customer service ever, with people that are lying in your face when actually don't want or cannot resolve your issues, worst signal and especially if you have a 5G phone don't expect to have 5G signal anywhere. Also I've bought a $1400 Samsung Galaxy S 20 Ultra 5G from them and after only 3 months didn't work properly and they've done nothing for 6 months of weekly complaining. In the end they changed it with a refurbished one the blocked after 2 days. So please do yourself a favor find a better option, my experience was traumatic as I lost many days on the phone with them, not hours, in 6 months I've lost days!!!! Just yesterday the whole day until past midnight when I was done with them for good.

    If you are thinking about using T-mobile, DON'T! I have been trying to clear up a mistake on THEIR part since January 11, 2021. I returned a defective phone that does not work and tracking number shows it was delivered to T-mobile warehouse in Texas. They are still trying to charge me for the defective phone that clearly shows it has been delivered to their warehouse. So far, I have spoken to over 25 representatives and several supervisors. Now they are saying that the IMEI # for the defective phone shows it is still in use. Firstly, the defective phone is incapable of being used. Secondly, a supervisor confirmed the IMEI # of the phone being used does not match the IMEI # they are showing is being used. Even with all of this proof, T-mobile still wants to charge me for a phone that I clearly do not have.

    This has been an on-going hassle that I have to keep taking time off of work to resolve and nobody at T-mobile seems to be component enough to resolve an issue that should be easily handled. Now I am being advised to email corporate and see if they can resolve. This has already went through several people, departments and still has not been resolved despite the obvious proof I have. This has been beyond exhausting and frustrating. Do NOT use T-mobile for anything!

    I had been with T-Mobile for 6 years and was generally happy with quality of service, devices, etc. One day my phone broke. I needed to two factor authenticate for work, so I ran to the store to replace the device. For whatever reason, the t mobile employee had to give me a new line. Apparently, I was supposed to cancel that? So now, I have been paying an extra $40 for the past 6-7 months. When I spoke to your customer service they said they'd only refund 2 months. I asked for a manager, who apparently didn't want to hear it, so she authorized the service rep to give me 4. Better, but... you're still stealing from me. They don't care about your customers in the slightest. They just want their cash. I used to be a huge and vocal fan of t mobile for 6 years. Now I'm canceling my plan, and I'm gonna trash talk them for at least 6 more. PS, the money in no way matters to me. I refuse to support criminal enterprise.

    I got a text message from T-Mobile about a promotion they were having. I called about it and was astonished when I was told I was going to get a FREE Galaxy S21, a watch and a fabulous plan with 2 lines for $27.50/mo. I didn't want 2 lines and was told that there would be 2 chips and as long as I didn't use the 2nd chip, I would not be charged for the 2nd line. I paid a deposit and all I had to do was send my old Galaxy to them. I ordered a cool phone case, and a wireless charger from Amazon and was so excited about that new purple phone and rose colored watch I was going to be getting in the mail. When it came, I followed the instructions for switching data from my old phone to the new phone. Complicated for me, but I did it.

    Fast forward to today, 4 days after I got the phone. I was looking at the bill online and saw I owed $103 and would get a $15 discount if they deducted my payments from my bank account. Looking further, I found the plan was charging me $65/mo plus $29/mo for the phone and then $10/mo for the line for the watch. I called T-Mobile and the woman I spoke to was very nice. She could NOT find the promotion I was talking about, and she told me that never have they offered a S21 for free. They were giving me a $200 credit for my phone, but I still had to pay for the FREE phone. She was able to get my plan down to $78/mo. They emailed the shipping label to me and the FREE phone and watch are going back to the land of FREE. Oh, I got a text from that woman reiterating the details of our conversation. A text after that thanked me and offered me $50 if I referred a friend to T-Mobile. That's not going to happen.

    The good news: Has a lot of service plans that fit budgets, Will buy back phones to upgrade, No charges you can't explain. Always unlimited data.

    The bad news: Any time you DO have service issues you will not be compensated even when the issue lasts for months. The tech support line is not as knowledgeable about your service area. They just troubleshoot so it might take 45 minutes to get anything done. They change to Philippines call centers at 4pm CST-believe me this will frustrate you. When you do get a credit to your account you will lose data. They say you don't but your service will slow down. Trust me.

I haven't had service on my phone on 3 weeks, first it was randomly roaming while I was home, then I lost all bars completely so cannot receive calls or texts. First time I called was told need a new Sim card due to merger, went to store next day to get one and they put 4 in and none worked, sent me to another store where they were just plain rude so I called again and was told they'd make a ticket to investigate and call me back the next day, except they never called so I end up calling them again where I got cut off or hung up on twice, they say they'll call you back but they don't and they tried saying there may have been a possible outage in my area but for 3 weeks?! And my husband's phone still works!? Ridiculous. Will be taking my business elsewhere VERY soon!

    If I could rate them a zero I would. Less than zero if that was mathematically possible. First it was the change in bill with higher amounts without warning. Next experience was ordering my upgrade. Paid and did not get notice this phone was on backorder until I had already paid. On chat over an hour with 5 different agents who could not answer a darn thing. A nightmare just to get this order cancelled. I am shopping for a new vendor after over 20 years with Sprint.

    I'm a Sprint customer, now T-mobile. This merger is pure garbage, they keep saying I'm with T-mobile but when I try to take advantage of their promos they tell me I can't because I'm a sprint customer!!! That's nothing to what happened and what I'm dealing right now, on Feb 28 I decided to take advantage of a trade in offer, $800 for my s10+ and monthly credits of $33 towards S21 ultra 5g which will only change my monthly payments by $16. My S10+ had a cracked screen so I started a claim with the insurance Co.

    Things took a wrong turn when I got to the t-mobile store, I showed up with my new phone and asked to activate it and fix the old 1 so I can send it back to sprint, they activated the s21 ultra and refused to fix the s10+ because they claim that the insurance is on the active phone and Now I'm trying to commit insurance fraud!!!! After several complaints and phone calls, the situation was handled, the s10 got fixed and sent back to sprint.

    The new phone wasn't working properly, days after going back to the store they decided its defective and they're giving me a new 1, so I end up with a black 1 instead of silver, fine, I just wanna move on, within minutes I received notifications that my account is past due and must pay $1287.00 immediately to avoid a disconnect!!! I tried to reason with customer service over the phone, it's a no go, by the way, customer service is In the Philippines now, they insisted that I returned the phone which made the original trade in agreement null and void, and the new 1 is a new purchase and must be paid in full, They informed me they will open an investigation!!!

    I asked to send me my s10+ back so I can cancel this deal and move on from tmobile, they said no way they can do that. I have been a customer since 1996. That's 25 years. To the fenton parkway employees in San Diego, thank you for all your help and support, you tried and still trying to resolve this matter. T-mobile corporate, you are the worst, I will not pay $1287. Send me my old phone back so I can move on from you.

    I've been a Sprint customer for 20 years in good standing. Time has come to upgrade one of my aging phones that is dying. I went on their site and picked out a phone and when I went to check out it wanted the entire amount now. I called them and got excuses and they said they fixed the problem and I could buy it in a couple days. A few days later tried again and still the same. I also noticed a 3rd line on my account that I didn't ask for and was being charged for. I called them and made them remove it and refund me. They we're also charging a fee on top of it. This went on 3 weeks and each contact resulted in same behavior and services added to my account I never asked for.

    They finally told me that I would get a little credit each month to put towards a new device so I could probably fully finance in a year. I told them my current device has maybe a month or 2 life left and their service would do me no good without it. I then went to samsung and they financed not 1 but 2 new phones without a problem so I don't know what sprint/T-Mobile problem is. I already signed up with a new carrier and awaiting sim cards, then port out and done with this horrid company. They threw away a good long term customer without a care.

    T-Mobile has raised my plan price without consent. My plan went from being $100 to $138 monthly. They claim it is tax inclusive but I have already been paying taxes. So what taxes are they adding? I complained on the 28th of February via Sprint Chat on the website and was told that they could certainly change my plan back to the original plan. The customer service rep Ashley then proceeded to try and sell me add ons and items. I said no thank you and to please revert my plan. She then informed me that I was no longer able to revert my plan and that they exchange for this is a $50 trade credit (that is useless to me since I want to leave sprint anyways and upgrading means another 2-year commitment).

    She insisted that they informed me via text and email and that they had great benefits and offered to give me a one-time credit for the month. I asked if it was the same plan as before and she said no. They were extremely vague about the plan change in the email they sent and heavily advertised about the $50 credit and not informing that prices were about to go up. They raised my price and the only reimbursement was a trade credit to assure I couldn't leave sprint/T-Mobile). I hung up telling her I would call again to complain. I never received the one-time credit. I then complained on March 4th to Jermey who said he would set up an appointment later in the day with a supervisor. I sat for 50 minutes after my appointment waiting for a call that never came.

    I waited roughly a week to complain again since I needed to ask the people on the line if they wanted to cancel with sprint (which is today March 10th). I reached out to the chat line again to set up an appointment with a supervisor. The associate Jennifer K said she set up an appointment for later in the day and escalated it but she apparently didn't. I got no callback and proceeded to reach out to the chat line one more time to speak to a manager right away. The associate Princess said that she would set me up once I told her my problem and I insisted to only speak with a manager over the phone. I eventually relented and said yes to being connected over the chat line. Though when connected, I was texted but received no response for 15 minutes before I quit out since my missed appointment was supposed to be at 3:15 and it was already 3:56pm. This is definitely not the first major complaint with Sprint/T-Mobile.

    Switched from Verizon a few years ago. Big mistake. Brought one phone over and selected what was supposed to be a free phone for adding a second line. The Revvl Plus, that was supposed to be free, ended up not being free. Despite adding a second line, they charged me monthly for the phone. When I called and asked about it, they said they don’t remember that offer, so I had to pay for the phone. The phone is garbage. Started failing immediately. The lighted soft keys stopped working. It would only make WiFi calls.

    I requested replacement under warranty. They said, "OK, that’ll be $130, how would you like to pay?" Wait, what? They want me to pay to replace a phone that was covered under warranty and I got only because it was supposed to be free but cost me $300?! Yup. No thanks. As the phone continued to get worse, I again complained and requested it be replaced under warranty. They said, "OK we’ll waive the replacement fee. That’ll be $90 for activation and shipping. How would you like..." NO! So, my free phone for adding a line that has cost me $300 so far is still junk. The app rarely works, they never do what they say, and everything turns into a big hassle.

    A few days ago, via chat, I requested a printed copy from T-Mobile of phone activity for a certain day I needed for a separate legal matter. I can’t access anything from the junk phone. They said, "No problem. We’ll email it to you within 24 hours." Never got it. Today, I asked again, they said ‘No.’ They said ‘look it up and print it yourself’. Now I have to have my attorney subpoena those records because T-Mobile refuses to send me a copy. Yeah, real Uncarrier-like. Needless to say, I’ll be switching back to Verizon soon.

    Me and my 65 year old mother got an iPhone 12 and a S2O FE on promotion to switch to T-Mobile. We were told and showed on the graph by T-Mobile agents that we would both be receiving excellent service and it would be 5G! We have had the premium plan now for about 6 months and we have had the worst service of our lives. We have called T-Mobile numerous times (between 10-20) on their recorded lines and made complaints for dropping important calls, texts, videos and video meetings, and we went through all resolutions with them. February 20th 2021 I was given a 50 dollar credit and told I would receive a call from corporate within 3-5 days.

    Fast forward to today.... Still no word from corporate, poorer than ever service no matter where we go in Duluth, MN. I talked to T-Mobile today and got ahold of the MN manager. I was then told that the last agent I talked to was actually contracted from the Philippines and shouldn't have told me corporate would get ahold of me because they don't do that. Still no resolution. I gave specific examples of important dropped telephone calls and telehealth video from today (3-4-2021) and yesterday. My mother just had major surgery through Essentia Health last month and has had 3 virtual meetings with her Dr. and psychologist. They have been unable to complete these virtual meetings due to T-Mobile's poor service. Her Dr. says she is the only client that is experiencing connection issues.

    I went to T-Mobile in Duluth today and asked the agent if they had good service around the area. He pulled up T-Mobiles internal coverage map and told me all the address that were in pink had excellent signal and it was verified my their customers. We typed in my address as well as my mother's address which are 32 blocks apart and it came back pink! We have no confirmed excellent service whatsoever! We have reported nothing but poor service. My problem with T-Mobile is that they are misrepresenting their service coverage in our area and we are now stuck with promo phones we can take anywhere else and we can't even talk to corporate and we just keep getting the runaround from T-Mobile management.

    I have all proof in black, white and pink!!! I have management names and ID #s, all phone calls are recorded noted. I have specific details and notes recorded, as well as doctors that are frustrated and will testify to their inability to complete virtual meetings due to T-Mobile service unable to sustain a connection. I am a business owner as well and could not conduct my business with T-Mobile cellular service, so I went and bought a TW prepaid Tracfone (Samsung A20) for 69.99 and a 50 dollar unlimited plan which gets awesome service and has not dropped a call. T-Mobile continues to say they are working to fix the issue but hasn't fix our service whatsoever. I would recommend staying away from T-Mobile. Thanks for reading, sincerely, Shawn J. **.

    T-Mobile at first appeared to be a step up from Verizon's shoddy customer service. I was able to set up cellular services with T-Mobile and have my phone numbers ported quite easily via phone with their representative(s). That always seems to be the easiest part when attempting to obtain any service - T-Mobile is not an exception in taking potential customers hard earned cash and in a prompt fashion. Their reps were courteous, friendly and appeared to be quite knowledgeable — again, a step up from Verizon.

    However, and stay with me here for this is almost amusing (emphasis being on almost), T-Mobile sold me cellular service for an area that they do not provide cellular coverage for. Yes, you read that right. They obtained my location information, verified my location information and then sold me a package for non-existent cellular services. What?? Now I am in the process of finding yet another cellular company that does indeed provide cellular coverage for my area. Third time lucky it's been said. We'll see. There is an issue on the table here of the money I paid this company for the activation fee for such non-services. The first rep I spoke to said she couldn't refund an activation fee which led me to speak with a supervisor. This supervisor initially said the same thing — stating she was as high up in management as I could go to have this issue resolved. She was it. Excuse me? - I think not.

    As usual, I persisted and between her speaking to her management team (of which I was just informed didn't exist), they were able to circumvent the inability to refund the activation fee to my bank account by issuing a pre-loaded debit card for the activation amount that I could use anywhere as a debit card. This said card is "supposed" to be mailed to my home address — but "be advised it could take some time arriving". I am a bit hesitant to believe that said card will actually arrive considering that this same company told me their cell services covered my area, sold me a cellular package and took my money quickly in the process of doing so. Are they to be believed or not? That remains to be seen.

    This supervisor, like so many other sub-par businesses, was apologetic that I was sold such services but I grow weary of such glib apologies from such companies. They are not the ones spending countless hours having to rectify issues that have arisen solely due to their very own ineptness. It is far easier to give lip service than to get on the horn and have these issues resolved in just as quickly a manner as they were in quickly extorting good money from their customers. I told this supervisor that I would be filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission for Fraudulent Business Practices - for selling services to consumers that simply do not exist. Her reply was that it was not fraudulent. Pardon me ma'am, but this practice has fraud written all over it unless I am mistaken in the meaning of that word — which in this particular instance, I think not.

    There's also the issue of my spending even more of my good money in purchasing a T-Mobile compatible phone, but we won't go into that issue for fear of this company turning tail and hitting the road running. It would be highly unproductive for me to waste my time attempting to do so. At the beginning of this review I stated T-Mobile's customer service appeared to be a step up from Verizon Wireless customer service; however, Verizon never sold me cellular service they were incapable of providing. If you have to make a choice between these two I would suggest Verizon. At least you would have cell service while attempting to resolve your issues of which Verizon will inevitably drag out. If you can avoid these two companies altogether then I would highly recommend going elsewhere for your cellular services. There are many to choose from. Do not settle for sub-par services. You are not at their mercy and you are deserving of quality service.

    Called and ask for best deal today on a phone. Trading a Pixel 3. Offered Galaxy S21 for $700, with a $400 trade and would pay $300. Repeated offer back to girl on phone. Drove to quakertown PA store and asked for the deal. Two employees in store. The gentleman said yes, $700 and $400 trade I would be paying $300. I agreed to $300. He completed transaction and I said I would pay $300 now but was told no. All credits have to go thru until I would see balance to pay. He put a receipt in bag and handed me bag with box receipt. Receipt numbers do not match transaction.

    Called store and they said phone is $799 and I would not see trade of $400 on receipt, (reflect $86) but don't worry it will be what bill shows. New guy states phone is not 700 as the two in the store told me. If I run it back to them to return I have to pay a fee to go back to old phone. Honesty is not what T-Mobile is about. Been a long time family customer and used to recommend to others Lied, lied on price and did not honor A bunch of numbers on a receipt adding and subtracting amounts that do not match sale..

    I am caught them in an act of committing Fraud. They attempted to deny any wrong doing and would not show the agreement to me in writing just over the phone. When I told them to cancel the transaction they then use a delay tactic. It now going on three weeks. Since I told them to cancel the transaction. They sent the phone the next day anyway. I called to get a return label in which they stated they would mail me one. Waiting 5 days, no label. I called again, Requested was mail for them to email me one. I wanted for them to do that in which they finally did. Then said my account was activated and that I needed to go to a T-Mobile store to show them my ID and then they could cancel my account and provide a full refund.

    I went to the T-Mobile store twice today. They didn't know what customer service was even talking about. I asked would they call and they did. Was on hold 45 minutes, gave them my account number each time disconnecting our call. Did this 3 times before I got somebody who would communicate. Now they saying they will put in the notes on my account that they must verify my license ID and then they will cancel and refund my money back to me. It is amazing you can order a phone, have it delivered without any identification but to cancel you have to go through an act of congress. This is by far the worst runaround I have ever dealt with. EVER! I will not ever consider T-Mobile for any future service. PERIOD!!!

    In August 2020 I noticed that there may have been a security breach on my internet service due to sudden dropped calls, restricted access to certain Gov. Sites and extremely long load times. So naturally I called T-Mobile to inquire about my concerns. Instead of helping me to gain some sense of security they in turned decided to place extreme fraud blacklist and security measures on my device which caused a ripple effect of hardship.

    Laid off due to Covid. It began when I wasn't able to access no Gov. Websites in order to receive paycheck protection assistance. Websites began to deny me access to forms, pages and live customer support. I contacted Tmobile of this and pleaded with them to remove all the security measures placed on my device. But to them I guess I was just a hacker trying to bypass my own personal device. Instead of releasing me from this measure they decided to keep the security features on my phone but hide them from my view.

    Unknowingly I began to try and gain my life back by continuing to access these sites seeking assistance. Unfortunately the blacklist or security measures they have chosen for my phone made all not wanting to do business with me regardless of the personal information I gave. I checked my ip address to discover that my phone has been tampered with by tmobile. Consequently I was not able to access no government website and began to fail in life, my business calls were hijacked, good took my ad down and my domain was flagged.

    Ultimately I lost everything, my home, my life, my family, my vehicle, and my business. Tmobile then solicited me to acquire another device from them. I paid $157 for an iPhone and when it arrived it was opened. I became very alarmed and sent the phone back immediately. Now Believing I'm under some sort of investigation. It's nothing I can do but fall to homelessness.

They then swapped me back to a Sprint sim card and it still didn't work. After swapping sim cards 6 more times and 30 hours cumulatively in phone support I quickly learned that their customer service consists of randomly hanging up because they don't know how to help and transferring you constantly so you have to reexplain your issue each time.

    I switched to T-Mobile in November 2020 with 5 lines from Cricket Wireless. I tried in 5 devices (3 iPhone XR and 2 8 pluses ) all in good condition without any damages. I received 5 shipping labels to send my old phones to T-Mobile and I ordered 5 new iPhone 12 as part of a promotion. The shipping labels had the wrong IMEI numbers listed for 3 of the 5 phones so I called to correct so they mentioned they will fix it on their end. During my initial call the customer representative mentioned they will call me back when the trade ins are arrived at the warehouse to add the promotions. I never received a call so I called them. They mentioned they will call me later to add my promotions to my account but never called me so I called several times but they were not able to add the promotion to my account. They promised to call me back but never was able to call me so I keep calling them for the promotion.

    I called on Jan 17th. The customer representative told me one of the phone which I traded in had a liquid damage which I was surprised first then she reviewed my IMEI and confirmed it was not damaged because there was some error in the information. She agreed to call me back on Jan 23rd but no-one called me back so I called them on Jan 30th so the customer rep told me then they will not be able to give the promotion for 3 0f the 5 phones. I was very surprised to know this after nearly 2 months.

    I would expected to know this in early Jan 2021 so I could have return the new devices and got my old devices. Now I need to pay for 3 devices out of pocket. I tried to escalate the issue to many supervisors and manager but no-one can really help me. My problem is they never told me about the damage until Jan 30th so it was too late to return the devices.

    I inspected the iPhones by removing the SIM card tray and looking for red color inside the SIM card slot. If it is red means the liquid contact indicator has activated but didn't see any water damages because the SIM card indicator was white. I mentioned to the T-Mobile customer representative many times but they're not willing to give me the promotion. I wish they had told me the phones had issues immediately after inspecting the phone so I can make appropriate decision. I am very disappointed with T-Mobile for the unfair service. I am willing to return the new devices and get my old phones back. Also willing to pay any re-stocking fees but they will not do it. I am very unhappy with their telephone and so called 5G service. I have so much drop calls and missed text messages. I just want to run far away from T-Mobile.

    I cancelled my T-mobile account in November 2020 after many years of paying promptly on autopay. I switched vendor. T-mobile confirmed I closed all 3 lines, same phone #s of many years. In December 2020 the company auto-deducted $82 from my bank and sent an email to notify me my next payment of $92 is scheduled for autopay in January 2021. I spent several hours on the phone to resolve this. I learned from the first representative what that phone number was. I explained that it's not my phone line.

    If you're asking why this could not be resolved online, I'll explain, a cancelled account cannot log in. And since that phone line I was being billed for isn't mine, I couldn't log in with it. It was actually an inactive line when I called it. The first representative explained I was billed because it's a line on my account. I disputed that. It's not mine. She agreed, turned off the autopay, and agreed to refund me. No refund was received after 7 days. A few more days later I call T-mobile again to check the status of the refund after I confirmed they did not deduct another payment. Another representative agreed to refund me. No refund yet as of Jan. 23, 2021. I decided to a T-Mobile sales rep to explain I'm having a hard time resolving this with customer service department, to kindly request for a customer service department head to escalated it.

    One of the reasons I switched service is because every single time I needed to log into my account for years there was no resolution to allowing me to log into my account. The explanation was that they required a pin that arrives by mail. They never sent it. No matter how many times I requested it, provided the address, confirmed there were no log-ins other than my attempts, I'm the one attempting to log in year after year (this is sounding funny now but it's true), I confirmed to the he or the she I would speak with that I received every T-Mobile mail sent to me EXCEPT the one with the pin. It was never resolved.

    T-mobile had my correct address. Other mail arrived to my address. I never did log in but I made prompt payments on autopay and bought new phones in person. This review is about the company's inaction declining to refund me $82 for an inactive phone line that isn't mine, and about not resolving the multi-year challenge experience to be granted online access to my account.

Called Tmobile on December 17, 2020, spoke with customer service, asked for promotions. He said there is buy one get second for $530 off with a new line. I said, "I don't need a new line, and other carriers such as Verizon have great promos of free phones for new clients..." He told me to wait to see what he can do.

    After reviewing my account, he said I have been a great customer for over five years, therefore this is what he will go ahead and activate a free line into my account so I qualify for the promo, the free line should stay on my account and I should never delete it or end it, otherwise it would affect the promo. I said, "Okay no problem" and "Let's place the order." I went ahead, placed order, finally got email for the first phone which is full price, I signed, and never got second email for promo phone... Called back two days later, which is when my adventure started with Tmobile customer service...

    Long story short, today is January 19, 2021, and by now I have spoken with about 8 Representatives, They all claim, "Yes we see in the notes that agent promised you a free line and promo deal, but we need to also listen to the recorded conversation," finally they listened to recorded conversation (which I doubt it), they are taking actions against an employee with wrongly handling my account, but there is nothing they can do. Well, it's unfortunate that I have been treated like this, therefore today was my last conversation with them and told them I am going to Verizon just because of this.

    Their customer service is bad, but so are the other 2 AT&T and verizon so it's not worth talking about. The only thing tmobile has is the service is 15 dollars cheaper than at&t and 40 cheaper than verizon. If they didnt lie about thier horrid cell service i wouldn't even bother reviewing, because it's cheaper. They lie and play it off that they are better than at&t and verizon. Their cell service is the bottom of the barrel and they know it.

    They also will screw you if there is say a rebate or promotion within the return period of your device which is 14 days. If you return it they will ban you from getting any promotions for 90 days. So unlike every store in the USA where if you bought something and 2 days later the price went down, every other store would refund the difference.

    A few month ago I went to tmobile to trade in my iPhone 11pro 64GB brand new (I take care of my stuff) and finance two new iPhone 12s Pro and add a new line too, so my trade in qualified to receive $ 850, half of that to be apply to future payments of one of my new iphone 12 and the other half, I could use it to pay for old installments or my future bill, because the oldest installment belongs to my uncles I chose... apply the credit to my next bill (I chose this option in a tmobile store is not something that I imagined, and you can see it in the terms and conditions of the Tmobile trade in program).

    Well the next thing it happens is Tmobile applied my credit to the installments, and after many hours on the line waiting, talked to several people, they keep saying there is nothing they can do because the credit is already applied, I never agreed to that, it pisses me off so badly. They made a mistake either in the store and when applying the credit and now they can not fix it.

Is this what 19 years of loyalty gets you? Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else!

    I was a T-Mobile customer 17 years. They did my family DIRTY! We returned a phone not knowing why it was not working. It could go underwater so we never thought water damage. They penalized us for denying water damage then made us pay $660 for a lower quality phone and would not talk to us. We canceled 4 days after paying the last bill and had no balance. Then they sent us a "final bill" for 15% more than any previous bill (and those bills included paying off a phone that is now fully paid off). I have called multiple times and the ONLY service I get is the representative will take notes but no one ever calls us back. Tmobile used to have excellent customer service but has continued to go down hill and this episode sealed the deal for my family. Run away!!

    We switched providers and joined T-Mobile with a seasonal phone trade-in promotion. We were told they did not have the phones we wanted in store, so they'd be shipped to our home within two weeks (at which point we would come back into the store to complete the trade-in). Two weeks came and went without any word from T-Mobile, so we called them. They told us we'd now need to wait 3 months for our phones. They did not provide any alternative solutions. The rep did not care at all.

    We thought maybe we just happened to get a poor customer service rep, so we called again. This time we got a customer service who told us one specific phone in our order was causing the hold up, but if we wanted it in a different color they could send it to us in a couple weeks. We didn't care about the color, so we thought the issue was solved. However, because they couldn't just amend the order, they'd need to cancel our original order - and because they were no longer running the promotion we had originally signed up for we would need to pay $560 more than we originally agreed to. We did not want to pay the additional $560, nor did we feel like it was reasonable to ask us to. Just send the damn phones we ordered in whatever color is available. This rep said she would have a manager call us back the next day.

    The next day a manager did call us, but he could not care less. He immediately transferred us to a department who said "that's not really an issue we deal with, we can transfer you to customer service", which is where we started this journey. We have an appointment at the AT&T store tomorrow. We'll be leaving T-Mobile after 1 month of poor reception and ~5 hours of useless customer service calls. Absolutely would not recommend.

    WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!! I have spoken to THREE reps (Nikko, Benjamin, and Andrew) with each telling me they were transferring me to a manager) who REFUSED to give me to an ACTUAL manager regarding an on-going issue I'm having with my NOTE9, which I use for both personal and business, not to mention was over $1000. I am now on the second replacement phone which has done the exact same thing the 2 other phones have done, so it's defected too! Which means, according to Tmobile's policy, that they now are supposed to replace it with a new one. Andrew kept me on the line for 2hrs and 7min before saying he was transferring me to his manager to take care of that, all to disconnect the line!

    Normally when something like this happens in error, (As I've been a customer for over 12 years now) they call you right back, apologize, and then make sure you're connected to the right person. NOT THIS TIME!! So I called back, all to be told it would be over an hours wait before some one can call me back. BEWARE!! They're good at Selling you a very expensive phone, providing you with service for that phone along with a Bill for it, but when you have issues with that very expensive phone, and it comes time for them to honor your insurance, and their policy, to replace it with a new one once all efforts have exhausted themselves with the refurbished models, THIS is what you can expect in return.

    I am a 13-year customer of T-Mobile and went into a store in Woodbury to upgrade to a iPhone 12 Pro. I was told the "trade-in" value for my iPhoneX along with $200 customer loyalty bonus could be used toward the cost of my phone which is the ONLY reason I upgraded. That amounted to almost half the cost. After several WEEKs waiting for my credit to be applied and my $200 "gift card" to come to me I discover that is a LIE.

    I OWNED my Iphone X and it was in excellent condition. I sent it into T-Mobile in order to apply that money toward the cost of my NEW phone. They will make money off the re-sale of it and they will NOT allow me to use the $193 credit toward the cost of my phone. Rather they applied it to my bill which is NOT what I was initially told. These are DECEPTIVE and misleading practices. Shame on T-Mobile. They will lose my business.

    Tried to contact Customer Service regarding two questions but we humans have a limited lifetime and don't want to spend a big part of it waiting for help. T-Mobile has frequent software updates and almost everyone is a disaster is one way or another. It seems like the follow-on updates are to correct what they screwed up in the previous. When you can talk to someone they blame it on Samsung. Unfortunately, the updates are shoved down your throat whether you want them or not and I have found no way to shut them off. And I really don't have hours to spend waiting for the "expert" to help me out.

    Another issue which should interest anyone considering T-Mobile service is their treatment of existing customers. I have been with them for numerous years yet I can't get the same deal on a new phone as someone just signing up. In fact, I can't get a good deal at all unless I switch carriers. Is there a reason they can't take care of those who are paying the bills? Lastly, it blows my mind there a company that claims to be a leader in technology doesn't allow you to email or text an issue. You either call or send a letter. Really, they have an address for you to send a letter with your concerns...but no email and no text!!! Incredible.

Free SIM card and they overnight it for free. Super easy to switch.

    I told T-Mobile I’d be putting them on blast for putting me on a plan that cost more for options I didn’t need and was never advised of, three different people told me three different costs for the lower plan on same day, after they all said the lower plan doesn’t even exist, they lie. They have zero empathy for those struggling financially during this terrible pandemic. They could waive my monthly fee during the calif wildfires three years ago, but couldn’t help me out on a single month's payment while 250k people are dying, most of us barely surviving on unemployment, and don’t have money to put food on their table. I’ve been a long time customer and they should have done the right thing, especially after ripping me off for services I didn’t know about. I’m now paying half of what I was paying and getting better coverage and free gifts from visible.com. Switch today and save! Breakup with T-Mobile for good!

About a week after we signed up for their service, my phone stopped working. I figured out my Wifi Calling didn't work, despite my T-mobile rep telling me my phone I brought to T-mobile was compatible.

    Many hours and phone calls later, no one has resolved my calling issues, they don't call me back when they promise they will. They were supposed to ship me a booster they claimed would solve my problems. Nope, have not seen it. Every time I call, I have to repeat everything to a new person. Takes an average of 2 hours to not receive any solutions and them finally telling me they are "escalating" my issue and then I never hear back from them. I also have not received a $30 credit they promised. So tired of their apologies and lack of solution.

    I had a decent time with T-Mobile service, but once I tried to leave they stuck me with a bill for a suspended line I had cancelled. Despite repeatedly saying that they would cancel the bill it instead kept growing and they never call me back after repeated promises. I called in late September to cancel my T-Mobile lines effective at the end of that month. However, I was charged for a suspended line in October. I called on 11/9 and spoke with Arnold to remove this charge. He said he’d remove my card from the autopay and escalate this issue and call back within 24 hours. He never called back. I called back on 11/12 and spoke with Brad. He told me to wait another day for a call back and didn’t see any notation that Arnold had ever escalated the issue, but only that my card was removed from autopay. I waited 24 hours and never got a call back.

    I called back on 11/18 and spoke to Peter briefly - he was supposed to transfer me but I was hung up on. I called back and spoke with Annett that same day who said she would close the account and I would not have to pay for October. She said she’d call me back within 24 hours. No call back, but I received a bill in the mail a couple weeks later. I called again on 12/6 and was told that the supervisor of the CSR would contact Annett’s supervisor about the charge and that I would get a call or email that same day or the next to resolve the issue.

So I went back to the store and they insisted I get a new phone line and pad to get more data for hot spot. They told me this would make it better. It did not. I spent 80 more dollars a month for nothing. They said, "There is no contract and you can cancel at anytime as long as you pay for the equipment." 140 dollars for the pad. So I call to cancel the account cause I can’t get any service even when it shows bars and they want to charge me until the next billing cycle ending 28 days later instead of the day I actually cancelled. So instead of paying 140 for the tablet to end contract, I had to pay 80 more for the rest of the month till the end of billing cycle.

    False advertising and they screwed me by not having the service I was supposed to be provided. When asked how t mobile could be improved. I told them and he just said, "Well it’s in the contract." You know everyone doesn’t read the contract but relies on what the employee is telling you. If you ask me it’s a scam. Horrible company.

    So I have been a customer of T-Mobile for 9 years, and don't usually have to call customer service so I never knew how terrible they are. Recently there was a promotion according to their website, if you're transferring lines from a different carrier, you can get 2 iPhone 12 Pro Max for the price of one, so I convinced my wife and sister in law to switch from Verizon to take advantage of the offer, so we call customer service and visit 2 different stores to confirm the offer which they all confirmed it.

    So we finally decide to go ahead, and we go to the store and start the process, which was terrible and I'll provide details later, anyway we get the phones and no paperwork to to prove the promotions we were supposed to be receiving, and they say it'll show later on my account, a few days later my account reflects no promotions, and I keep calling them and reaching out to them and all they say that it'll take a couple of weeks to show, and finally they give me a date that it'll show after the 14 day return period of the iPhone, so I finally reach out to their Twitter help, and they say the promotion is only $734 off and not the full amount of the phone, and based on those lies and tricks, I'm moving the whole family to Verizon.

    A few less annoying points: 1- To get the phones and the lines at the store, we had to stay for 4.5 hours. 2- The person helping us kept jumping between customers which was very frustrating to everyone being helped. 3- After 4.5 hours and we're totally exhausted, we pay the fees and taxes, and leave, then the next day we look at the bill, and we see he added $20 "help" charge per phone, which we were not told about.

    4- We were also supposed to get a third line free for transferring 2 lines, which we also never received. 5- No paperwork provided to show any changes or any updates to the account. 6- Part of the process was done on the phone with Tmobile cause the person at the store said that's how it's supposed to happen, but the phone person and the store person were not aligned about the quantities or the promotions and each of them sang a different song. Highly disappointed and frustrated with Tmobile, and instead of becoming their promoter, and I'm now actively demoting them.

    Got their service fee month ago after their sales person assured me they have the best service in every zip code I gave her and even specific streets as well which basically my daily life moves around. Charged my card for SEMI card and activation fee, I received the card and had two words on my phone screen - NO SERVICE. I couldn’t believe and was confused because I gave them my home address and work address and the sales woman assured me it’s the best ever while the reality is it’s a 0 service where I live and the town and barely somewhere I work and I’m self employed so I need a phone that I can use so I contacted them to find out why I have no service. They gave me more lies. Every time they said, "It’s because we are doing some maintenance so the service is even better than now."

    It’s of course that wasn’t the case because I contacted them to cancel for the lack of service and they transferred me to their technical department and the lady told me, "I’m so sorry. The sales woman lied to you when she signed you up because T-Mobile doesn’t have service in your town." So that maintenance stories their reps kept telling are just more lies. Anyway I cancelled my service. On the fourth day they promised not to charge my card for the month. Had enough. I paid for a SEMI CARD ABS ACTIVATION FEE FOR A SERVICE I DIDN'T GET, of course that was one more lie. They did charge my card and not only that they keep sending me a 34.33 bill after that full bill which was about $90 and every time I called them they apologize and promise to remove and close that bill but more lies.

    They sent it to the collection and I call them again they promised that was it and this time as different and everything is all set so great but of course that didn’t happen. I received another letter from the collection with the amount which T-MOBILE keep apologizing for but never really resolved the issue. So this is a nightmare. Imagine to trust a company to charge your card in return for a service but in reality they won’t be able to offer you that service so they ripped me off when they charged me for the SEMI card ABS ACTIVATION FEE ABD A FULL MONTH BILL for a service I weren’t able to use and then wants to rip me off for more!!!! I’m going contact the GA office. Hopefully this nightmare comes to an end and they should be held accountable to their promises, not just taking people's money because they feel they are immune and above the people and the government.

    Original Review: Dec. 4, 2020

    Hello, I set up my account over 6 months ago, when I set it up I was told I have a tier 1 credit with a 4 or 6k EIP limit. About a month ago I added a line for my daughter, and upgraded my phone, along with purchasing a tablet. Everything went good. About two weeks later I brought my wife into the store with me, which is difficult as we both work opposite shifts and I wanted to upgrade her phone. We were told at the store that I did not have enough available credit, my limit was changed to $1800 but everyone I speak with told me that’s not right for all the lines that I have on my account.

    I have tried to rectify this several times but each time I am told there is nothing that can be done. I have 7 voice lines, two tablets and two Apple watches. Most of my devices are paid off, I have never missed payments and am wondering why my limit does not reflect the 4-6k as what was originally told to me, and from what all the reps are telling me my limit should be based on the number of lines. They told me I can add a line and that should increase my limit, but I’ve added two additional lines for both my tablets and also added my daughter's line and my limit did not increase?

    At this point I am looking at AT&T who already pulled my credit and is giving me a $5000 eip limit. I don’t want to move 11 lines away from T-Mobile, so can someone please correct this for me? Every rep I speak with told me I have the best credit rating with T-Mobile and my EIP should be from 4-8k. Please help me! All I want to do is upgrade one of my other phones.

We were with them for the next one year during which the phone had no issues, we cleared the phone balance to unlock and I switched, one month down the line my phone fell and had a crack on the screen, went to Samsung store to get it changed where I was informed that I should first check with T-Mobile if they can unlock it once again if required (international).

    Called T-Mobile, went to their store, everything was good they said they will support me. I got the glass changed and worked fine till I went on an international trip where the phone was not responsive, struggled there, came back and called T-Mobile for support. at least 25 calls to them (many of which were disconnected) and a similar number of visits to the store (I have visited every store in my neighboring radius of 20 miles at least once) the store guys would say call customer support and vice versa), they gave me the unlock links which never worked (always asked to wait for 72 hours). 3 months down, I was asked to pay another 100$ for something and the issue will be resolved.

    I switched to T-Mobile in September from Verizon. I switched because It was promised that the network was better and faster with new nationwide 5G and that T-Mobile would pay off the balance remaining from my current device on Verizon. I was told to bring in my final bill and I would get a Visa card to pay it off. I went in with the final bill and learned that I was misinformed and not eligible for the promotion. So I had to pay off my device from Verizon. I spent hours trying to fight this and still there is no resolution. Then there is the network. I am still not able to use apps I enjoy like TikTok unless I’m on wifi. The network is too slow to stream videos. Often it is too slow to even load photos on social media like Instagram. I called many times and there is no resolution.

    I often hear the excuse that Covid is the cause of this. Because there are more people at home during the day. I don’t buy that. If you’re using your phone at home, you’re most likely using wifi and not T-Mobile’s network. There is also issues with call quality and sending text messages. People tell me often that when they call my phone does not ring. It goes to voicemail. There is also no resolution to this. I have made many calls and visits to try and resolve these issues. You can also expect long wait times to speak to anyone. Last night it was 2 hours. But that’s because of Covid too. I decided to give T-Mobile another chance and I bought the new iPhone 12 Max Pro, in hopes that the 5g would help with these issues.

    I was told that I would get 550 off the cost of the new phone as a promotion for trading in my device. There was also going to be a 380 immediate credit to my account that I could use as I wanted. Again, I was misinformed. The real deal is 550 off in bill credits but over 30 months. The 380 is taken from the 550 and this there is only 170 off the total price of the phone. This is a lot different than what was explained to me. I have spent hours trying to get them to honor what was promised. But again, I am left paying a lot more than expected for service on a shoddy poor network.

    The 5g is actually very strong in my area, but it is not any faster unless you use it late at night. All in all, T-Mobile has been a huge disappointment. I am actually going to pay cash for my new device and switch to AT&T. They actually offer a generous discount for doctors and nurses (in addition to teachers, active military, veterans, and first responders!). I would strongly suggest that you do your research before switching to this company. If you google reviews for T-Mobile (wish I had done this) you will be hard pressed to find any independent sites with a 2 star or higher rating for T-Mobile with multiple comments similar to mine.

    I cannot strongly enough discourage any and all to avoid the new T-Mobile. First, I was T-Mobile customer years ago and I was very much impressed by their customer service. I moved to a new location that had a worthless T-Mobile signal, so I had to switch to AT&T. Years later, I rejoined T-Mobile. Despite their promises that they had a good signal, it turned out T-Mobile had a very inadequate signal at my new address. After 7 months of waiting for T-Mobile to provide the promised signal booster, they told me to find another carrier. They were unwilling to compensate me for 7 months of crappy coverage.

    When I left T-Mobile, my ex-wife spun off her own account, which was supposed to include her phone on her line on which she was making payments. That same afternoon, I went online to pay off my balance. T-Mobile had left her phone on my account. I called immediately, and they agreed they'd made a mistake. After 30 days of them not being able to actually make this phone go to the ex's account because their computer system has/had a glitch, they offered to just give me a credit to zero out my account.

    The next month, instead of a credit, T-Mobile doubled the charge. After many, many, many calls and countless hours of my wasted time, as well as a letter to the department which handles disputes, I was sent to collections. Sadly, the company I had switched to was Sprint because their coverage map showed great coverage where I live (BTW: the area where I live has no access to broadband, so my phone is my only access to the world), but what their coverage map showed wasn't true.

    A few months later (right after Sprint and TM merged), the closest tower to my house went offline due to a part that is indefinitely backordered with absolutely any idea by Sprint/T-Mobile when that tower will work again. No compensation for this either. I went to Verizon. When I tried to pay off my Sprint leased phone and close my account, T-Mobile did everything within their power to keep my account open so they could continue charging me. You cannot cancel your account in the app or online. You MUST call and wait and wait and wait to talk to someone who will tell you that you have to call another dept, and start the whole process over.

    That would be bad enough, but even after you find the right dept and tell them to close your account, they refuse. You must provide irrefutable justification as to why, and they deemed my experience with them as not enough - so they just kept putting me on hold, transferring me around, and asking me over and over what they could do to keep me from leaving. Did NOT matter to them that my number was already ported to VZW weeks earlier. I spent hours on the phone, chat, and in the store before they would close my account and agree to stop charging me for service I was not getting or using.

    My husband and I both have horrible cellular service especially when we try to surf the net. Lagging won't download images quickly. I have called to complain and when I do I am unable to understand the technician being they are from a different country. They usually run diagnostics on our phones and cannot find anything wrong. Therefore giving us a credit on our account. This last time they replaced our Sims cards in both our phones and this did nothing. I do plan on going to Straight Talk soon because of this.

    I heard on the radio, and saw on TV, that T-Mobile was offering a promotion when current Sprint customers (I was, I had 4 phone lines with Sprint) were to switch to T-Mobile....that T-Mobile would "pay off your phones, up to $650 per line). That sounded great! I immediately called, switched my cell plan to T-Mobile, filled out the proper documentation to receive 4 new phones (which arrived 2 days later), and to return our phones for that "up to $650 per line" refund. Well, needless to say, that was a lie! Even though we owed less than $650 per phone, the catch is that you only receive "up to $650 per phone" if THEY deem that your phone is worth that amount. Funny thing is, how can brand new phones that Sprint says have a balance due of a fixed amount, suddenly be worth WAY LESS because T-Mobile says they are????

    Essentially what happened is that we were given pennies on the dollar for what was still owed to Sprint for the phones, but we are now STUCK with T-Mobile as our new carrier. The whole promotion is deceitful, and nobody should be surprised that they will be screwed out of the amount owed to their previous carrier, just because T-Mobile devalues the phones to whatever they feel like paying. Crooked business practice. Good thing for me....Sprint IS T-Mobile....so I will NEVER EVER PAY what the remaining balance is to Sprint. TWO can play this game.

If you did not purchase your phone from Tmobile or Sprint they are condescending as well. God forbid, you port in your own phone and ever have issues with their service or ask them for real technical help, they will treat you like a third class citizen as they become impatient when they realize they don't know what they are talking about or what they are doing, so at best resort to blowing smoke up your bum and at worst, treating you like dirt underneath their shoe.

    I've had an issue with the compatibility with their service and a phone and all they could do was react condescendingly again each time I went in to see if the issue could be addressed or fixed (because I was not with sprint or the phone was not purchased through t-mobile). They are the most UNPROFESSIONAL customer service agents both over the phone and in the stores of any carrier I have ever dealt with. I am surprised because it's a major cellular company. They are HORRIBLE.

    I cannot stress enough how unprofessional their employees are. I am actually shocked that the smaller cell companies actually have more professional service in comparison to t-mobile. It was so unprofessional and condescending that I was tempted to call a regional manager because the nonchalant, disrespectful, half-assed, judgemental (type of phone, where it was purchased etc were all judged as if a personally and reflected in their attitude) and influenced their treatment towards you.

    I started the Jump program on 9/04/2020 and since then I have had nothing but trouble. They sent my new phone through the mail, I received it and I sent the old phone into their warehouse. I received an email saying they did not have my phone so I started dealing with customer service and got the runaround for a month telling me that they could not find the phone I sent in.

    Then after dealing with them for a month I called the corporate office in Bellevue Washington and spoke to a man named Gabe. I told him everything that had been going on and that the only thing I wanted to do was to take the new phone in and close my account after being told by one of their experts that I had sent in an empty box. Well I was not on the phone with him more than 5 minutes and guess what. They found the phone. I was still not happy since I had been told I had sent in an empty box. So I told him again that all I wanted to do was take the phone back into them and close my account and he started in on that I had been with them for so long and that I should not let 1 little incident take me away from the company and I told him I was still not happy and he said that he would give me a $50.00 credit to my account.

    They can keep the $50.00, he may call it one little incident but being told that I had sent in an empty box and pretty much told I was lying about sending it in. Now mind you he never called me a liar but he sure pointed to it several times. So a small piece of advice don't use T-Mobile or Sprint unless you want to be screwed over and over. It took 11 calls and me giving them the tracking information 11 times before their ever found the phone and then they only found it after I called corporate so something does not sound right. You may pay a little more with another company but it will be worth not being told that things being said is only 1 little incident and thinking $50.00 dollars is going to fix everything, guess what. It hasn't.

    I am going on every website that I can find and leave a review about how I was treated by their team of experts and then how corporate treated me. I will also be filing a repost with the Washington State AG office on Monday morning. So just a little piece of advice unless you like being treated badly I would go elsewhere to look for a phone and stay completely away from T Mobile and Sprint. They are both owned by the same company.

In comes T-Mobile, they had a promo with Galaxy phones buy 1 get 1 free so I took the leap and got us 2 S20+ phones and was given an agreement stating what I would be paying monthly less taxes.

    My first bill comes in and no equipment on the invoice so now they have you for 25 months but to top it off, inside my home, where I conduct my business every day, I had such horrible service calls would not even connect. When they did if I moved more than a foot from the spot I was it would drop the call. Another call to customer service and $25 deposit later I had to install a signal router extender and now I finally have service in my house but leave the house and you go in and out of service a dozen times before getting to the retail location 1 1/2 miles from my house.

    Then the 2nd bill comes in and it's nothing like what I expected, $12 more a month then the agreement I signed. I called and got a CSR on the phone and explained what I had and wanted to know why my bill was that far off of what I expected and then he tells me "the promotion was buy 1 get 1 but anything over $1,000 you have to pay the difference". NOWHERE in the agreement or any of the conversations I had stated that but he stuck to his guns and told me, "If you ever have a question on a promo or anything, call us." I cut him off and told him again, that this was in NONE of the paperwork I have and I read every word. Then he starts to tell me "you really need to go through these agreements and promotions, I've missed things before and you probably just missed it".

    I MISSED nothing but I am kicking myself for ever making the change to T-Mobile and will be going back to Verizon at the first chance I get but I hope that this review will help others make their decisions but know full well the T-Mobile sales tactics are very deceptive and it's concerning since they are now one of the largest carrier out there with their acquisition of Sprint.

    I got on T-Mobile's network around 2013 I want to say. This was a jump after dealing with horrendous service from Sprint (I know they've improved since and merged with T-Mobile). Let me just say the switch was the start of something great. First off, the signal was killing it in my area. I mean, maximum 4G everywhere I went back then. Blazing fast and I never had dropped calls (again, my area). I even sat on a beach in Puerto Rico and had 4g right there on the sand. I'm not sure how well it works everywhere in the world, but it was also phenomenal in Quebec Canada.

    So enough of how great the signal is. The plans are also very generous. I got on the plan where it was unlimited everything for 100 flat for two lines. Hard to beat that for as many years as I had that. On top of that, they offer what is called T-Mobile Tuesdays via an app. I don't want to overhype it, but the fact that they do give out offers and freebies weekly to various vendors and websites is pretty astonishing. They don't have to people... Yet they've been doing this for years. I thought it was just going to be a short lived gimmick when I initially heard about it, nope. It makes me wonder why to continue that other than that they do like to give back in some form to its consumers even if you do not take all the offers that they provide. I've had countless offers of free coffees and sandwiches. :)

    Now this is a big one for me that set T-Mobile to a new level. When covid-19 hit and I was fortunate to work from home, my internet provider went down for 5 days straight. The only thing I could rely on was my phone as a hotspot. First off, it was part of my service at no extra charge, and my internet was as fast as the fast speed I pay for that didn't work... Let that sink in for a minute. Sure my phone got a tad warm as it was providing me internet all day long for 5 days, but it never failed me. I can't thank T-Mobile enough for that because without it, I'm not sure what I would have done other than packing up and moving to a friend/family's house that had service running.

    So I'll end with, with all the horrible large corporate big name companies out there that just count you as another value of revenue filling their pockets, T-Mobile makes you feel like they care a tad more so about you than the norm. At least enough to make me feel good when I need to send in that monthly payment. I can't say I feel Okay with about 90% of my other monthly bills, lol. So yeah, switch to T-Mobile if you want a nice phone package plan/rate with plenty of side perks. Recommended I suppose for Metro-ish areas but the fact that I've yet to lose signal anywhere I've been (my job sends me traveling all around US), I don't think you'll have too much issues with it.

For my surprise they charged me 5 dollars late fee but they are okay charging me for 6 month for line does not work...

    I had a horrible experience regarding phone rebate they did not honor. I sent my paid phones with certified mail and called 2-3 times a month to figure out when I will get a rebate. Each time the customer service politely told me that they will call me back. The calls lasted sometimes hours as they could not figure out their own rebate system. After 6 months later finally a manager said that they cannot honor my rebate, they cannot return my 2 phones Samsung S9+ but can give $150 for phone for my misery. The rebates were for $500 for each phone. I could have sold the phone for $400 in marketplace as I sold one already.

    Now with time lapsed, the value depreciated and I finally get to know after these years I lost it all. So sell your phone to others, do not use in rebates system. Their customer service department people are polite but they do not know information. My loss is their gain. I have 2 year and 6 months to go with 6 lines and I can't wait to get off their hypocrisy. I have also noticed their calculations of billing is different all the time and they sometimes charge my card twice a month. It is a huge mess, as I said they have hard time figure out all the things they claim that they offer.

    Having been quite satisfied with T-Mobile telephone service, I tried their Internet. It worked only adequately for several weeks, then for more than a month of efforts to correct problems, continued to deteriorate. Extremely slow – worse even than the old dial-up days since it eventually just stalled out. Download speeds measured as very very slow. After 10 days of their "investigating," it was determined that there was apparently a lot of Internet residential traffic in my area and, "business users get priority," I was informed. Further, my searches always produced results from a city and state far from where I reside. I was told by a great T-Mobile technician who attempted to be helpful, that such was a peculiarity of their system and that it could not be corrected. I have switched back to my prior provider.

T-Mobile neglected to tell me that I must maintain a two year contract before they would hold up their end of their financial obligation. I took my business elsewhere because I couldn't receive tower service to certain cities that I visited from T-Mobile.

    I am no longer a "fan". I recently had to cancel my postpaid account due to money issues. My bill was finalized on the 18th but received a call from a collection agency today the 21st before I even received my final bill. It has already shown up on my credit report and dropped my score by 67 points. What did T-Mobile customer service say? "We have no idea how your information was already sent out to a collection agency." I was planning on coming back as a prepaid account since I spend most of my data on wifi, but that has changed. Goodbye T-Mobile. And corporate was no help either. Same excuse. A loyal 20 year customer and that is what I get for doing my best to defend them... Horrible.

    Back in May of this year, my sister got married and wanted me to be the primary account holder of our account where it would just be 2 lines (me and my grandma). I ended up paying an extra almost $200, because they ended up putting me on an account on my own, my sister's account with her number was never cancelled, and my grandma was on an account by herself. Around August, I talked to another person (after trying to sort things out in June and July but never could) and it turned out that I was paying for both accounts and a total of four lines when I only had two active lines. They said that they would reimburse me for the extra money I ended up paying due to all the confusion.

    I was supposed to receive that money around 2 weeks ago. I called customer service, and they said that I couldn't access that money because my account was closed (seeing as how I moved over to AT&T after this disaster). This, however, made little to no sense to me seeing as how on the bill that I received, it said that it was going to be transferred to my bank account. After being placed on hold for about an hour (in total since May, probably would add up to around 7 hours on hold), I was in contact with someone that said in their "expert" opinion that everything was sorted out and that I should get my money back in 72 hours. I asked the representative (Kenneth) what if on the off chance I don't get my money, how should I proceed? He said not to worry because he was an "expert," but I was asking for next steps in case I had to call back and go through several hours of waiting again. Instead of giving me an answer, the dude chose to hang up on me.

    I try not to get frustrated, but I have been dealing with this since May and it is now September. I like to think that a company that self-proclaims to have the best customer service and the happiest customers to be a littler more considerate, especially since I have had to sort this out for SEVERAL months. Even when I tried to go in a physical store to sort this out, they said that these kind of account changes can only happen via on the phone using T-Mobile's customer service. It is safe to say that I am incredibly unhappy with this outcome and that moving over to AT&T is one of the best decisions I have made since I was born. Anyone who actually reads this, do yourself a favor and just not even consider T-Mobile. Yeah the phone bills don't seem like a lot, but they like to hide a bunch of fees (even when you say you don't want it) and their customer service representatives will think it's cute to hang up on you mid-sentence.

    I went to get my son's phone repaired at a independent service, and they could not do it that day, right next door was T-Mobile. So we went in and we looked in to 2 new phones on 3 or 4 lines. I chose two phones that were both approx. $250. After hours like 3 hours and a card swipe of over $700 the clerk asks me if I wanted to put the 2nd phone on the leasing program. I was blown away, I said what did the $700 pay for and he mumbled some things with a heavy Spanish accent. I asked for the receipt and was told it would be emailed later. So I just left.

    Now we are signed up for service, have only one phone, and have no idea what is going on. In order to see the receipt, you have to create an online account. I see there are employee assist charges, activation charges, deposits. I'm all the way out. I return under the 14 day policy and they give me all the money except the $180 deposit. That will come in the mail. Well it's been almost two months, no refund. So I call and they finally find the documents (which I can no longer access) and do a little math, apparently on one phone that was active we had to pay $70 for service, and the Visa card has been mailed out. I never received it, ok, here's a number to Citibank to report it lost and go through that whole process. I literally give up, keep it T-Mobile. You are terrible.

    The issues with T-Mobile started when my phone stopped working one day. After hours on the phone with customer service with no explanation, I went to the store. The store found out my number was ported out without my permission. While it was ported out, my number was used to withdraw over $6000 through 2 factor authentication that I'm still fighting with a year later to try to get back. Apparently they let you port phone numbers online without any human verification. Second issue came with adding a line. Hours on the phone, and just constantly being disconnected by the rep.

    I joined T-Mobile about 8 months ago. At the time l discussed their roaming policy. I was told that it would not be a problem roaming more than 90 days. All l had to do was call them. In April, l sold a property l had in Alaska. I was living in FL at that time. We were on lockdown due to covid so, l could not get across the country. Finally, l made it to Alaska the last week of May. I was roaming with TMobile while there. At the end of August l started receiving terse text images from the company. They said they were going to cut my phone service off because l was roaming too much. First, they slowed my phone to 2g. I could not even make a complete call without dropping. Then they said l would be cut off as of Sept 10. That is the day l was crossing the border into Canada. The company gave me a choice, l could voluntarily suspend my phone which would allow me to retain my phone number or l could wait for them to cut it off and lose my phone number.

    I did the voluntary suspension because l wanted to retain my number. When l went with TMobile, they were not able to port my phone number, which was from Alaska, (l had that number to close to 25 years) to their system. I had to get a new number which upended my life. I did not want to go through another phone number change. So, the voluntary suspension worked better for me. There l was, Sept 10 in Canada, nowhere next to nothing, without a phone in case of emergency. A week before l left Alaska, the company rep told me to write a letter to their Executive Customers Relations unit. They could give me a 5 day extension. I either had to mail the letter or fax it. Mail would be a 10 day response time, fax would be a 5 day response. I faxed the letter. I was never given the courtesy of a response.

    Needless to say, the moment l drove across the border into WA l found the nearest Verizon company office and had my phone number ported to the new account. For denying a 5 day extension, TMobile lost years of business from me. This is a company that will step on you for 1 more dollar in their pocket. They did not care about my safety in an extreme rural area and showed no flexibility.

    I had T-Mobile service for two years and the service was only $3.00 a month pay as you go plan. I recently canceled service and had a refund of $3.30 and they would not give it back to me. They kept it for no reason because my account was paid up in full and they ripped me off. They connected me to four representatives and none of them would help me. I will never use their services again. I experienced a lot of dropped calls in my area Kentucky. They gave me a phone number that was very popular with other callers so with a 30-minute monthly plan you used all your minutes up especially if you answered the phone which I never did. I switched to AT&T Prepaid for $10.00 a month and they gave me a new phone number and better customer service too. The phone has better signal strength so I never have dropped calls like T-Mobile.

    I did some research in June and on the 30th went into a local store to replace phones that my sister and I had been using with another company for a little over a year. We were not happy with the cheap almost obsolete phones that didn't cost us a thing and the reception. (I live less than 1/2 mile from the T-Mobile store.) What they told me my rates would be certainly beat the other company, plus they talked me into buying a 5g phone that was on special for 2 for 1. My sister really couldn't handle a phone like that but they almost insisted that I take them up on that offer.

    Now my second bill is $20 to $30 more than I was told it would be. I called and said I wanted to pay off the charge for the 2 phones in order to lower my bill. They said I had to pay the balance for 2 phones rather than the 2 for 1 price because I had signed up for a promotion that wouldn't end for several years! Very disappointed in their billing support department mostly because they couldn't understand me at all, even when I was transferred to a supervisor who had very broken English. There was also no way to lower my bill so here I sit with the bill going up and up every month.

    Oh, and the super duper phones are doing exactly what the cheap no charge phones were doing. I've called their Tech Support twice and they said there are bad signals coming thru but the only solution is to use 4g connection rather than wifi. So I bought 5g phones but there's no 5g coverage in our area and I have to resort to the wifi to send anything in a text because T-Mobile's 5g that's really a 4g doesn't work. What a mess!

    Customer since 2006. So over Tmobile and their now hidden penalties and charges. Had a digit line I no longer needed and wanted to deactivate it. Line was 5.00 but was paying 10.00 because I won't give tmobile access to my bank account. When canceling was told I would be penalized on a tablet promotion I added after the digits line. Last month I ordered their internet service but had not unboxed or hooked up the equipment. Was told with the internet no contract, no penalties for cancellation. Now I'm told if I cancelled the internet I would be penalized on the tablet promotion and they could not take the tablet back because of buyers remorse. Who brought that up buyers remorse?

    Needless to say I'm over the top that canceling a 10.00 line that tmobile is already making 5.00 on because I won't let them in my bank account has gone to this level. My account has a credit of over 500.00. I have never paid my bill late and at the time I had 6 lines with Tmobile. And now for the final act...cancel internet 55.00, cancel tablet 1, 25.00, cancel tablet 25.00 cancel digits line 10.00, cancel insurance and jump 16.00. I have 2 lines left with Tmobile for now...Within 30 days I'll have that canceled too.

    So Tmobile penalizes me for canceling a 10.00 digits and now they've lost income on 4 lines. Which brings me to the Blockbuster comment...Tmobile is making people mad just like Blockbuster did and we know how that story ended...can you say Netflix. Keep it up Tmobile.

    If I could give a ZERO Star rating I would. I'm extremely upset by my experience today (August 4th). Myself and another customer waited for the store to open at 10:00. You could tell the air conditioner had not kicked in yet. It was warm. One employee began to help the other customer and she (the employee) had her mask under her chin because she was hot and proceeded to talk and engage with the customer. The other employee helped me. She had her mask on. Another female employee came from the back with no mask on and proceeded to talk to the employee with the mask under her neck with the customer between them barely 1 foot between the 2 of them.

    I couldn't restrain myself another second. I said... "You really need to have a mask on." And she said, "I'm leaving but I need to tell her something." I reminded her that the sign on the door said employees and customers are REQUIRED to wear a mask while in the store. She again said she was leaving. I let her know she was talking without a mask a foot away from a customer and she said, "Well he has on a mark." I later found out she was the Assistant Manager of this store on Apopka Vineland Road. I have not been around my own family without a mask but I'm going to be put at risk at my local T-Mobile store.

    T-Mobile is horrible. I can never use my phone and the telephone customer service is terrible. The stores salespeople are liars. They will sell you additional data that doesn't work and bill it to you. My expectations of the service are to be able to do basic smartphone functions that I am not able to perform because of horrible service. I am constantly removed off the network and can not make phone calls. I speak english and the customer service over the phone goes automatically to Spanish and I can make no adjustments. I have been a customer for almost 40 days and hate every day of it. I have to call them daily for technic issues with my phone service. T-Mobile should be shut down.

    Please do not do your business with them if there is any chance you may need to close your account. It is the most impossible task to get accomplished. I've tried many many time to close it. They charged me a premium fee to setup my account online, entered the wrong PIN# apparently making it impossible to close the account without forcing me out in to COVID19 to their store to close it. They have no problem with billing me $70.00 a month till that can happen and offering ZERO assistance to close it without me risking my health. Thank you for charging me for services I never used, could not use, and refusing to close my account till I go risk my health and safety due to your representative's error when she put my PIN# in.

    We had a very unusual problem with T-Mobile, and in the end we hate T-Mobile. Between July 10 & July 15 all T-Mobile customers throughout the U.S. and possibly Canada and Mexico who had the old workhorse Note 4s had NO SERVICE!! T-Mobile was updating their lines, and we discovered they were trying to BOUNCE off the old phones off their network to make way progress for their supposedly better network. We were one of their most unusual cases because we have 2 accounts with 3 lines on each account, and of those 6 phone lines, we had 5 excellent working Note 4s until Friday, July 10th when we woke up with NO SERVICE!! I spent several hours with their top tech (EXPERT), and he was bewildered, and he had no clue what was going on. The next day, Saturday, another t-mobile (EXPERT) tried.

    It was obvious that T-Mobile did something with their network. One t-mobile (EXPERT TECH) swore up and down it was the phone, and the other t-mobile (EXPERT) said he was certain it was the t-mobile network. When I asked for compensation, it was a BIG TO DO!! I was bounced around from representative to represent from TEAM to TEAM all over the country, and finally settled with a calm, but very slick (PERFECT T-MOBILE SOLDIER)!! She was very tricky, dicky, sneaky, and dishonest!! We are getting compensation with different phones, but this (PERFECT T-MOBILE SOLDIER) tricked us into getting lesser compensation. There's much more to the story, and maybe later I will finish it, but I will say without a doubt, T-MOBILE is a HORRIBLE COMPANY, and PLEASE STAY AWAY From them!!!

    I don't have much complaints for the the 15 year I've been with them 2002-2015 and 2018 till now, but I have noticed twice so far that they literally make up false charges on your account, especially when you are signed up for a automatic payment withdrawal every month. And if you don't carefully watch what's going on, you will miss and they will keep on stealing from the millions of clients they have. This month it was $30, next month could be $3 but it still a theft. This month I was charged $138 instead of the $109 I am supposed to pay. I immediately noticed and called to see what's going on and I was informed that they did some changes on my account (unauthorized of course, and without my knowledge) and this is why my bill was $30 extra.

    They apologized and issued a credit,. This is the second time I caught them cheating by making up false charges and they always apologize and refund them. But the only reason I noticed was because both times was amounts over $20. If it was something like $5-$10, I'd never noticed. This is a SCAM, a theft, Be careful with them! Always watch your bills. If I catch them once again, I am done for good with them.

    Since the Tmobile/Sprint merger I began to experience regular outages of service that would last for hours. I would receive text messages hours after they had been sent. Internet was constantly being throttled to lower speeds. So, I decided to port my number to mint mobile and not continue my service with tmobile. I contacted tmobile and asked what I needed to do to port my number. I was told that my account was in good standing, service would end on July 5th & I was given my account number & pin.

    Today July 9th I attempted to port my phone number to Mint and it wouldn't go through. So, I called tmobile and the rep said that they can't port a number from a deactivated phone (this is a lie) & I would have to pay $75 plus a reactivation fee. I refused & after her speaking with her manager she agreed to turn my service back on for free so I could port the number. I call back Mint, the number still won't port. I call tmobile, the new rep tells me that I cannot port a number until I pay the current balance of $77 for the cycle beginning July 5th. I explain that it is impossible for me to have a remaining balance because I pay month to month & my service ended on July 5th in good standing.

    After a long hold he gets back on & says the past due amount is actually from January. I explain again, that I pay month to month, at no time has tmobile said that I had a past due balance & I was specifically told that my account was in good standing. Another long hold, he comes back & says the charge is actually from February. I disagree. His manager comes on & explains the charge is actually due July 24th. I again explain that I don't want service, I have always paid upfront for service on a month to month basis meaning that a payment due on July 24th would provide me with service into August. He puts me on hold. At this point I begin to question why I have been given 5 reasons for this mysterious charge. Manager gets back on & says "oh, I see now, the charge is actually from May". I was lied to for over an hour.

I was told of an offer that I agreed with...but they would not mail me the new phone, I had to go to the mall in person to complete. As we are in the midst of a global pandemic, that seemed problematic. At the mall, after waiting in line with mask, I was told that was not a valid offer and would have to move to a new contract at a much higher cost. At home again was told not to worry, go back to the mall and have the manager call in to verify the deal and that there was a notation on the account to satisfy the manager.

    At the mall I was turned away again with the admonishment that “customer service will tell you anything to get you off the phone and in the store”. After 2 visits to a Covid hot spot mall, I now need to self isolate from family for 14 days, as a family member has a compromised immune system do to cancer. T mobile has gone from ‘cool to cruel’.

I have paid my account since 2009 but the account was in my deceased wife' name to start. There is no way you have any control over people adding things to the account or usage. Customer service was no help what so ever. After not being to consult with my dead Wife, I had no control over the account. Billed $271 for things I did not do. So, be sure when your Wife is dying to get her to sign the account to the husband or you will be faced with canceling the account and stopping the auto bank drafts.

    Went to T-Mobile store #4808 at 5848 W Central Ave Toledo to activate a phone and port number to it. Was on Sprint monthly billing plan and wanted to go to a prepaid plan on a phone I had purchased. Paid for first month of service and did paperwork. Counter rep had problems getting number to port over and called T-mobile help desk for assistance. They hung up on (first red flag) him while trying to resolve. Assured me that phone would become activated in the next 24 to 48 hours. 48 hours came and went with no service on new phone and no contact regarding lack of service by T-Mobile (another service shortfall).

    Returned from out of state on the 11th and contacted the store regarding no service, was told they couldn't help and suggested I call 611 from the new phone for the service department, Sprint customer service answered and couldn't help but gave me a number for customer service at T-mobile. (Why did the store tell me to call 611, seems they don't know how to fix problems?) T-mobile service person said the problem was the stores to fix. I decided at that point to simply cancel service as no one I had dealt with thus far had the competence to solve a problem, what if another issue happened in the future?

    Went to the store again to get a refund, rep at the counter messed with his computer pad, inputting transaction details and said he was having problems. He said he had all the details necessary to process a refund and I asked him to contact me when that was completed. Having heard nothing. I called later in the day and said if I had no information by 3 pm further action would be taken. No contact was ever made with me that day. Today is the 13th, the 7th day without being provided service or a refund for the service I paid for. When I went to the store today to once again insist to refund my payment, I was told that prepaid services are non-refundable. NO SERVICE WAS STARTED. I have been defrauded, I am curious how many others are facing the same predicament.

    I have found a provider with the skill set to competently complete this transaction and want a refund of the money taken for a service never provided. I should receive some compensation for the 3-4 hours I have wasted visiting the store for resolution and calling and being on hold with various representatives who brought me no closer to solving the problem but did effectively pass the buck to another who could waste my time.

Some days passed and I noticed the sun on my phone and it led me to gently rub my finger on the screen and I felt a superficial scratch. I thought that it was just a reflection but I could feel it but not see it. I called T-Mobile to find out what to do. I was initially advised to contact Samsung to get a replacement since it was a brand new $1000 phone!

    Samsung could not have cared less! They first told me to go to some repair place (UbreakIfix). They told me they would not be able to get me in for about 2 weeks. I called Samsung back to share information. I was told the best they could do is for me to mail in my phone and I would get it back in 2-4 weeks. What is that?? That is your best?? I called T-Mobile back for advice and spoke to a lovely person named Carmela out of St Louis office. She and her supervisor helped me very graciously and I will be receiving a new phone by mail with return slip to return my defective phone. So thank you a million times to Carmela and T-Mobie for doing Samsung's job and providing OUTSTANDING service! Shame on you, Samsung!

    The Tmobile store on 1498 Union Ave. Memphis TN 38104 has the worst customer service I have experienced in years. Went into the store last week to purchase the new Iphone and the salesman wondered out of the back room 5 minutes after I started shopping only to snap at me that they were not going to open for another 5 minutes. So being that I did NOT appreciate his attitude I went home and ordered the phone through Amazon. A few days later I go back to the same store to activate my new Iphone, only to be greeted by a Tmobile lady sitting in the front of the store arrogantly barking at me that I need to wear a mask. I stated that I chose not to wear one and her partner jumped up also arrogantly saying then you can't come in the store. This is shameful customer service and it seems like all the employees at this store have a remarkably horrible attitude. I will never return to this store again.

    In November of 2019, my wife and I were in the market for new phones. A T-Mobile Sales Rep offered us two free phones, if we switched service plans. We told him we were paying Boost $110 per month for three lines, but were planning to drop our son from the account in a couple of months. After doing some research, he said he could beat that price at $105 per month. The only thing we had to do to secure that discounted amount is sign-up for automatic payment. So, we purchased the phone service in November, and then signed up for automatic payment in early December, as well as dropped our son from the plan. This dropped our bill to $84 for the month of December. Great! Everything was going as expected. However, in January, we no longer received the discounted pricing, raising our monthly cost to $98 for two lines.

    In addition, in late January, for some unexplained reason, we were dropped from auto-pay. So, our February bill jumped to $108. We re-established the auto-pay and the bill, subsequently, returned to $98 per month. I spoke with CS Rep., Mark, at length on April 22nd in an effort to reset my bill to an amount in alignment with what the Sales Rep sold us - approximately $84 per month for 2 lines. I spoke with the CSR at length. He spoke with his supervisor that gave him approval to make all of the necessary adjustments. He said everything will be adjusted 1 week following the May bill of $98. Well, 10 days prior to the May bill due date, I called T-Mobile just to make sure we're all on the same page. Well... CSR Mark never documented anything from our conversation and when questioned by another CSR, he denied everything.

    To make a long story shorter, I spoke with multiple reps over the next three days, including Supervisor Jose and Manager Matthew - all from the El Paso. TX Customer Service Center. I discovered that the service plan I was placed on cost $108 for 2 lines, minus the auto-pay discount of $10, bringing us to $98 per month (taxes and fees included).

    The $105 for 3 lines was a special only good for one month - which is exactly what happened to us - we were just never told. We were made to believe it was their standard rates. So, the Supervisor Jose informed me there was no other option for us, except to pay more for a different plan and if we decided to go to another service provider, we would have to pay the remaining cost of both phones. Wait a minute! What remaining cost? I thought they were free for switching service providers. Wrong again! I found out there is an $8.34 charge for each phone per month that they credit us for... unless we choose to leave T-Mobile. If then, we would have to pay the remaining balance of the phones - ultimately several hundred dollars.

    Supervisor Jose was kind enough to say he will follow-up with complaints to the supervisors for CSR Mark for lying and to the Store Manager of the Sales Rep. I have no way of confirming that actually happened. I continued to escalate my issue to Manager Matthew. His attitude was very careless and left me with the mindset that anything that can be done has been - which was absolutely nothing at all. I called back the next day and asked to speak to whomever Manager Matthew reports to.

    About an hour later, Matthew called again and he seemed a little upset that I was calling again and attempting to go over his head. I told him that in my world, when a company's representatives make grave errors, the company takes the hit for those errors - not the customer. In this case, it's the opposite. I, also, told him I was unwilling to accept that there was nothing T-Mobile can do about two of their reps lying to their customer. So, instead of offering solutions, he began questioning me, in a not-so-nice manner: "Well, what do you want? What is it going to take? Give me an amount?" - as if I was wasting his time. So, I told him that though T-Mobile does not have a suitable plan in the price range I sold on, T-Mobile could make an adjustment that accounts for what the Sales Rep sold us.

    I find it sad that after all the people I spoke to over the previous three days, let alone the 10 other times I called before than - the customer had to come up with a reasonable solution to satisfy the customer. Manager Matthew agreed to the solution and hung up the phone. He never once apologized for the behavior of the T-Mobile Sales Rep or CS Rep. I believe the El Paso, TX Customer Service Center is flawed in their approach due to bad leadership.

    Was told my bill from pervious cell provide would be paid in full by T-Mobile. That didn't happen, then I was told I'd get $350 from the carrier freedom program. I got $67.47. They will lie, cheat & steal for a sell. I was told in order to get my Verizon bill paid for after I switch all I needed to do is send in my current phone. I had a 15 month old iPhone xs max. So I sent it in, thank the lord I sent it back, signature required as they tried to tell me they never received it. Once I mention that I sent it in with signature req and that I had the person that signed for it if they'd like it. All the sudden the phone was there, that's the steal part. They literally tried to steal my phone! How many folks would just have use the label provided by T-Mobile.

    The lie part is when I signed up. I was flat out told that T-Mobile would pay any fees for early termination as well as any money that was owed for a device payment plan up to $450 bucks. NOPE! So that's how I found out that the carrier freedom program T-Mobile has would only pay $350. They would pay up to $350 buck if you had a qualifying trade in which I was told once again I did. So months go by and nothing.

    I logged into check on my Carrier Freedom progress tonight and see it has been process and paid. Opened the drop down menu and there was a staggering $67.47 buck that has been sent via card. They flat out cheated me out of my phone and did not do anything they said or promised. I have kept all the transcripts and everything on this and will be taking T-Mobile to court! Bottom line DO NOT SIGN UP WITH T-MOBILE! Lie, Cheat and Steal. They will bait and switch you. I may not end up with nothing but I'm sick and tired of these BILLION DOLLAR companies just flat out swindling folks!!!

    I have been a T-Mobile customer for a couple years. I will admit, they were very affordable and service wasn't GREAT, but it was good enough without too many issues aside from it being slow or having a hard time finding service at times. To me, this wasn't a huge issue given the affordability. Customer service is also very polite. The few times I needed to speak to them about anything, which was rare, the wait wasn't long and the agent was always very friendly.

    The problem I have is that though they were friendly, they seemed to have been making false promises in a friendly tone. Specifically, when it came to unlocking my wife and I's iPhone X's so we could port over to Verizon. I called on Monday, 5/4/20, in the evening after starting the porting process with Verizon after receiving my new SIM cards in the mail. When I put my new SIM card in, it said that the phone was locked by the carrier (T-Mobile) and to contact them to get it unlocked. Fortunately, since I am working from home at the moment I had my work phone online to make the customer service call. I was told by the rep that she had started the unlock process and it would take 48-72 hours, which is frustrating, but per my searches online, was pretty normal. Again, she was very polite about it.

    I spent all of Tuesday checking my email constantly to see if I had received the email yet, nothing, so Wednesday morning, I made a call to T-Mobile customer service again to follow up. This time, I was told that it had not been accepted yet, but she would "escalate" it and I should have an answer within the next couple of hours. This was at 10am ish.

    Fast forward to today, Thursday, 5/7/20. I just got off the phone with them, again, around 10am. This time when I called in, it didn't give me an immediate option to speak with a representative, it just kept looping the options to reactivate, check my balance, change my address, or repeat options. After some patience, I finally got to speak with a rep. This time I was told that my unlock request was denied because of my remaining balance.

    To provide context, both of our phones have been paid off from them for about a year now (maybe a little less), and I have literally never missed a payment due to auto pay and always having the money needed in the account for them. Not once did I miss a payment. Auto pay typically comes out on the 13th-15th, so it had not paid this month. I want to add that the payment was not past due, just up to be paid in the upcoming week as normally scheduled.

    I went ahead and paid the balance and the rep told me the request should go through without a problem this time. I expressed to her that the 72 hour mark previously mentioned will hit this evening and my wife and I have been without phones since Monday and asked if there was any way this can be expedited due to that. She told me that she would "escalate" it, but to be honest, she didn't think it would make much of a difference due to the process of them sending a request. I will note that I appreciate her honesty with this instead of blowing smoke with a friendly tone as the previous reps had done.

    This, however, is still extremely frustrating as that 72 hour process starts all over again. Due to working from home, as mentioned before, I am required to do a multi-factor authentication that involves me getting a text message from my company to verify who I am, but I have been unable to get that text and verify myself due to not having cell service. This will have me for a week unable to work.

    I am at fault for not knowing about the carrier lock that was placed on our phones, that I admit, though, I disagree with a lock being required once the phone has been paid off. The main frustrating that I have from this experience, aside from the phone being locked at all, is that had the first rep told me that I needed to pay off the balance in order for this process to work, I would have paid it right then and there and I would hopefully have a cell phone again. This experience has been unacceptable.

    I decided to move from Verizon to Tmobile to take advantage of the lower cost of their plans and a promo they had going where you mail in your old phone and they give you a new one. Long story short, they sent me postage forms from UPS to send in my phones and I did that. All 4 arrived based on the tracking but Tmobile said they could not find two (either stolen or UPS lied about delivering it via the tracking numbers).

    By the time Tmobile did the research to find them-which they did not, I was not able to return the phones they sent me to get out of the promo. They also would not compensate me and I was told I had to take the hit for them receiving the phones from UPS but not finding them. An out of pocket of $700. After calling them over 4 months asking for help, they gave me $25 to compensate me. Very poor customer service from Tmobile. Once I pay off the phones, I will leave them and go back to Verizon, where you pay a little more but don't deal with being treated unfairly.

    Took my iPhone 8 in for “switch deal”: left Verizon, trade-in, get limited selection of free phones, unlimited 55+ Plan 7/2019, seemed great and would have kept my cost about same on my limited income. But NO! When billing of my account started I see charging me a payment for the phone instead of the bill showing subtracting a monthly amount for the phone cost owed to go down each month to zero at the end of 24 months! No one would fix this at any level of the company, just acted like I didn’t understand the deal!

    On-line customer service said the NEW store salesperson “not authorized” to make this deal! Sales manager at store said she would contact her manager then said “manager said nothing we can do about it. Sales person made a mistake!” Now have increased my monthly bill another $3 for “protection plan” which I feel was a ‘contractual plan’ that couldn’t be adjusted! (BTW in recent mega merger with Sprint, T-Mobile claimed there would be NO increases to customers! Seems hard to trust these people!)

    During this global crisis that often seems insurmountable, the last thing that I expect is poor customer service and impatient dispositions from employees working in the comfort of their homes with minimal risks. As an essential worker, I am in the market for a laptop. The scope of the iPad 2020 is just the device needed to fulfill my day to day work demands with its new capabilities.

    I contacted a T-mobile “expert” whom explained and offered a very appealing promotion that could have saved me money. Prematurely, I cancelled a pending order from a competitor trusting that my primary service provider would successfully fulfill their promise. Prior to completing the order, I was advised by the “expert” to accept a (call back) in order to contact some retail stores with the devices present to receive my devices sooner.

    My fairytale offer quickly became a nightmare! The agent failed to call me back as promised. I returned the call the next day hoping to receive my order with expedited shipping options. I was informed by the new agent that notes were placed in my account but the order expected could not be processed because the promotion Was never valid. This information was off-putting to say the least. I attempted to reason with the agent reminding her that calls are recorded and offers should be honored as a sign of good faith and fair business practice. Apparently, this agent was ready to clock-out because she was not interested. I was quickly transferred to another agent with no prior warning.

    4- agents, 4 failed promises for returned Calls from supervisors, and a quote from a 5th agent requesting an additional $300 for items ”out of stock” completely floored me. To assume that I would be ok with paying more upfront costs and waiting for an additional 15- days for a device was insane. I missed a great deal from a competitor and never received a correspondence from T-mobile to right this Very wrong ordeal. I have decided to discontinue my agreement with this company. I'm sure that my new provider will provide excellent service across the board.

    The cellular service from T-Mobile is absolutely ridiculous. There’s no excuse for the immense lack of coverage areas. I’m going to list for addresses in Atlanta where T-Mobile has not worked and continues not to work despite their so-called upgrades. By not working, I don’t mean signal reception is faded or weak. I mean completely nonexistent.

    I have called for over 2 years and received bill credits, cell signal boosters, and tons of reasonings and excuses for the lack of service yet no solutions. I’ve been told towers are being built, satellites are being launched, signal boosters are being installed and still as I write this I had to move to an area where “no service” isn’t showing where signal bars should be. The place I moved to get service is the front of my apartment complex. That’s where I have to go to make sure my phone calls aren’t dropped or that I don’t accidentally pay a bill twice when the data service freezes in mid payment. It’s abhorrent that T-Mobile would be buying another phone company (Sprint) when they haven’t fixed their own service issues.

    The addresses of no service are as follows:
    -** Decatur Ga (10 minutes outside of Atlanta)
    -** Atlanta Ga
    -** Atlanta Ga
    -** Fayetteville Ga (30 min outside Atlanta)
    -** Atlanta Ga

    -1105 Research Center Dr Atlanta Ga (Walmart on Cascade Blvd.)

    These are all places I visit regularly and NEVER have had service with T-Mobile. Verizon? No problem. AT&T? Good to go. T-Mobile? Not happening... T-Mobile does have its better points. As far as customer service goes, they are top notch. The company hires call centers like everyone else but the majority of the attendants I have encountered (and I have called A BUNCH of times for this and other issues) seem to be genuinely nice and helpful people. Many of the attendants are also American (which I mention on my to emphasize the commonality in culture as it relates to the easing of business relations). I’m always able to make a payment arrangement if I’m short on cash. They are very forgiving with fees. They charge no interest on phone or accessory financing and they have ALL the latest and coolest tech gear.

    They have free electronic giveaways every Tuesday (that I rarely redeem because my time is tight, but still...). These aren’t just lame discount offers when you buy something from them or someone else. It’s actually cool stuff like free movie tix or food or T-Mobile gear like hats and book bags and shirts. They have stores everywhere. Their employees are definitely more of the Gen X brand (none of the Apple store bourgeois and definitely not as square as BestBuy).

    All in all the absolute ONLY thing I could truly complain about when dealing with T-Mobile happens to be the ONE thing I truly need. It just seems very evident that reliable cellular service is simply not what T-Mobile is focused on right now, at all. I wish I could attach a photo to show you guys the one sad little bar I have even as I write this review?...
