Bad phone service

Posted on: October 26th, 2013 by Sienna D McMillan

I had no problems with Metro until I moved to South East Texas. My phone began to freeze in the middle of system updates causing it to freeze completely, no phone calls in or out. This happened twice in the span of two-three months. I had to travel back to Florida to get the problem worked out each time and each time they had to do a system reset, which erased ALL of my contacts and apps and everything. Currently, I needed to prove that I'd made a phone call to my job on a specific day. I knew that the information would not still be on my phone (because of the reset) so I attempted to call and see how I could get the information. Every time I would type the number I'd be directed to an app on the phone. Every time I'd touch on the app that I wanted to call customer service, it would start dialing *490. I'd get an error message saying that feature was no longer in service. I tried the *611 feature and the same thing happened. So finally, I called 411 and asked for a number to a corporate store in Orlando and I got Metro customer service. After several hang ups (literally), my husband was able to get someone on the phone to find out: 1. if we could get the password reset on the online account and 2. how to get a detailed account of the phone calls I'd made. The password reset takes 24-72 hours to get and the reset passcode only lasts for 6 hours before you need to make another request. So, if it comes at 3 am shame on you. The account holder has to pay a dollar extra for the service of detailed calling log and it only shows outbound calls. When we finally get the information we are looking for, all of the calls are not on there only some of them, there are no times and barely any phone numbers. Now, I am fighting to keep my job because of my crappy phone service.

total screw ups!

Posted on: October 16th, 2013 by Charles Harper

It took me 3 weeks and about 20 hours of effort to port my number over from Net10 to MetroPCS. Why? Because Metro kept screwing up. On top of that, because of THEIR screw ups I lost my $50 rebate! They have no complaint line and getting help is almost impossible. I DO NOT RECOMMEND! Even their book keeping is screwed up. Best price so if nothing goes wrong, they're great. Unfortunately, they are so incompetent things will go wrong.

Metro Is Horrible and a scam,4g doesnt work ever

Posted on: October 11th, 2013 by Orion Raabe

I have had Metro for two years now and I must say it really sucks, the only thing it is good for is sending regular texts and making regular phone calls. I upgraded to 4g service because I thought it might improve my service quality but it literally didn't change anything except the cost of the phone bill. I'm in a so called 4g service area and it will read a 4g signal on the phone but it will never actually work like 4g should if you compare it to every other 4g phone service out there. Normally even with 3g service sending a picture through text is no problem but, well it has always been a problem with my Metro phones, ALL of them and I've had 4 different phones in two years. Wifi seems to work ok but that has nothing to do with the phone service, that's the hardware its self. This company should be sued for false advertising. Do yourself a favor and don't get Metro anything if you want to send any kind of media messages or use so called 4g services with them cause I guarantee you will not be satisfied. I have called customer service a number of times and they will reprogram the phone to help with service connection but it literally doesn't change anything. I am in the Daytona Beach area in Florida and it is a supposedly well covered area for 4g service but its a scam to charge more money for a 1g signal service.

horrible. even worse customer service

Posted on: October 5th, 2013 by Neil Leuthold

Had my account suspended as my phone was lost. The monthly payments were still being met during the time my phone account was in limbo. Since i wasnt using the service, i assumed those payments would accrue. And when i purchase my new phone i would be ahead on my payments. First, at the local store, they inform me that, in fact, they have no record of recieving checks for those months. However, the bank indicated that they did cash the checks. So i call costumer service they acknowledged the checks were cashed. The tell me to call back with the check numbers etc. Of course when i call back i am then talking to a new rep and therefore have to explain it all again. They then inform that no they dont have a record of those transactions. I explain that my bank does though and the last rep i spoke with confirmed as much. Long story short my money was lost to them,to me. Gone. Fine. I expected as much. In store reps are rude and dismissive everytime im in there. As well, there were two other customers in there railing aboit the various disservice theyd too experienced through metro pcs. Not too mention dropped signals around every bend. They truly leave alot to be desired in every area imaginable. Dont do it.

Inexpensive Second Rate Provider

Posted on: October 4th, 2013 by Luvodicus Mycaelis

While it's nowhere near the level of service and reliability you would expect from Sprint or ATT, the MetroPCS Service isn't as horrible, in my experience, as the reviews on this site. While there are areas in my town that drop 4G, I can still get 3G. The only problem I had is MMS... I downloaded GOSMS from the play store, and in the advance settings, manually set the metropcs MMS addresses. I can now recieve and send pictures and videos through my native messaging app. However, I prefer the GOSMS app. Aside from that tiny inconvenience, the service is very well recieved. 4 phones, 100 bucks a month.. decent service.. really can't complain :D

Metro Sucks

Posted on: September 4th, 2013 by Anonymous

If you have patience this is the right choice for you. if it's ok to take 3 or 4 days to relay a pic or a message, you're with the right company. As far as I'm concerned they owe me a new phone! I have been so frustrated with this manure service I slammed my phone and broke it! Not the phones fault just crappy service! You people are losers and need to step it up! get off your butts and do what you're paid to do!
