Worst Service ever

Posted on: November 12th, 2008 by Tyler Phillips

The good: NONE other than I am free of themThe bad: Crappy phones - horrible customer service - horrible -pr- horrible salesSummary: I was lied to from day one when I started this service. The sales rep told me that the phones I was getting were 2 of the best but yet we have had nothing but problems with them. Then lied to me about the service.I received a text message saying my service had been suspended due to non payment I gave them the benefit of doubt. I checked my checking account and sure enough there was a pre-authorized debit from them. I called and they said they would look into it. I asked if my service would be restored and she told me no. Their mess up and they wouldnt restore my service!? I asked to speak to a supervisor she told me that all of them were in a meeting.Riiiiiight! While college I worked for a Sprint call center, I know for a fact that there is always at least 2 supervisors on a floor. Maybe they are busy but they are there. Wont go into details but it happened again this month and the only reason I stuck with them is because of the deactivation fee.Not to mention when I have had to call them the reps were rude, argumentive and had the nerve to insult me and be-little me. Tmobile is a joke and a sham and I DONT RECCOMEND THEM

Low Price, Low Quality, No Customer Service

Posted on: November 4th, 2008 by Anonymous

The good: Haven't had a problem in the first four years of service.The bad: Customer service is non-existent as most (if not all) reps are rude and try to deflect any customer complaints.Summary: If you expect to call T-Mobile for anything, save yourself a giant headache. Customer service representative blamed everything on me and insulted my intelligence. Sorry, but as a complaining customer, I should be the angry one. The service rep should not be the one starting arguments.Completely save yourself the trouble, and go with a different service provider. Once my contract runs out, I'm going.

Sony Ericsson GC 89 wireless data card problems

Posted on: October 21st, 2008 by jorge newbery

The good: noneThe bad: Very slow navigation even in TMobile dakr green "strong coverage" areasSummary: I have used the TMobile Sidekick for six years and am very satisfied. Thus, I purchased the Sony Ericsson data card with service from TMobile. However, navigating online with this service was equal to 1995 AOL dial-up: VERY SLOW, frequent connection drops, and oftne no connection at all. Oddly, my Sidekick continued to have great connectivity even as my laptop with the data card struggled to hold a signal. I was VERY DISAPPOINTED and tried this service in many areas, even those identified on TMobile's website as having excellent coverage. You can get online and navigate with this, but your patience will be tested. Much better to find a hotspot or go to the library.

I do not recommend T-Mobile

Posted on: October 17th, 2008 by Shirley K

The good: Sometimes Customer ServicePlan prices/offeringsThe bad: Service ReceivedCustomer ServiceQuality of PhonesPrice of PhonesSummary: I have been a customer since 2003, but as of today I am looking to switch. When people call me I get bad reception, staticy reception, no signals to get their voicemails or text messages, and I am not able to answer their calls. When I try to make calls the network seems to be out so I can only make emergency calls, but not the calls I want to make.I am only on T-mobile because my other family members use the same service.There is also a No Reason $18 upgrade fee for all new phones. In addition, $10 shipping charges are assessed to get any replacement phones if your phone does not work and still under warranty.I share a family plan with my father. I have a text messaging plan on my line but not on my father's line, because you can't share text plans. I have found out today that T-mobile has tried to get Extra Money by placing my text messages with the text messaging plan on my father's account. I have called customer service but I was accused of physically using my father's phone when we do not live together.It is always hard to get charges reversed, once they are accrued especially with T-mobile. I want to warn you of my problems so you do not face the same.Hope you found this helpful!

Great Carrier

Posted on: September 28th, 2008 by Dustin Wasil

The good: My Faves call up to 5 contacts in any network or landline and its free. Can change them up only once a month, which is not that bad.Good service just about anywhere you go.Sim cards are nice, dont have to visit an authorized dealer to load contacts into your new phone, Nor do you have to visit them or call some weird number to activate your new phone. No charges to transfer your contacts from phone to phone because the simm card is a data disk and easily plugs into the phone.The bad: Went from 1 year contracts to 2 year contracts. which is no fun if you anticipate getting a new phone every year at the discounted price. You have to wait at least 22 months into the contract for the discount to apply.Also nights start after 9pm instead of 7pm like other carriers. Although I have heard with certain plans nights can start at 7pm, but i think those are buisness or family plans. thats about all the bad stuff there is. But all of the cons are outweighed by all the prSummary: Overall the carrier is great. In the last 9 years i think I only ran into 3 problems, 2 of which were handled really well. Not everybody is perfect but 1 complaint in 9 years not that bad. How many complaints do you get from a loved one in 9 years? yeah probably a lot more than 1, nonetheless great wireless carrier.

Great service, no problems

Posted on: September 28th, 2008 by Anonymous

The good: Great phone, great prepaid planThe bad: noneSummary: I have been a TMobile customer for 4 years and have used prepaid for my service. I was swindled in a post paid cingular service and said never again to post paid plans. I feel that I don't want to be tied down to 2 years and possible billing problems that everybody says that they always have. I bought a prepaid phone with TMobile and the Gold Rewards makes it great. I don't use the phone on a daily basis, so it works great for me.

Pleased with T-Mobile

Posted on: September 18th, 2008 by Sara Lewis

The good: Customer Service and plan ratesThe bad: Phone selectionSummary: I originally switched to T-Mobile from Verizon b/c I had no bars in the house I had recently moved to. I think T-Mobile has one of the best customer service centers I have ever spoken to. Everyone seems cheerful and happy when I call and they are always willing to help. I think their coverage has gotten better over the years. I rarely have a dropped call anymore. Also their coverage map on their website is so detailed. It's great. If they had a better selection of phones I would give them a 5 out 5.

Unbelievable general bad service

Posted on: September 12th, 2008 by Hugo Viera

The good: Customer service fast answerThe bad: Signal problems, cell-phones problems, billing problems, cold blood cust.service, bad inssurance policy.Summary: We bought 4 phones, family plan 1200 min. First 2nd and 3rd bills w/problems. The cust.service think that they have the right to punish you when they have billing problems, they tie you with the Credit Report on your SSN. My brother has Sprint w/3 lines: He never had problems with the cell phone, sometimes close to the beach he had low signal. If he don't pay on date, sprint sends a message after the due date, before they close the next period, they send an other text and voice message. After the next period due date, they call him, before turn off the service. If he do not pay, they turn off his line only, the main line, but he is still getting incoming calls and text msg. They charge the fee for the line that they turn off, not for all lines. T-mobile, totaly cuts your service for the 4 lines, without notice or msg, after 2 bill periods and you never know exactlly when. They charge you $20 per each line, and they won't give any chance to discount the $80. If you call some days before they cut the service, they will do something, but only once. After that you only can do an arrangement if you have the service canceled, is logical, after they charge you the $80 for that reason.I paid inssurance for 12 months, $10 per line, when I call them to claim, they ask for 50 dollars, just to try to fix the phone, because they said that my inssurance was only for repairs. I changed one phone 3 times, and the others once each. I claim many times the problem with the signal strenght, they allways answer: We have excellent signal strenght in the area you are now, maybe is an other problem. I took enought from them, I will cancell my service tomorrow, even when my contract end next year. I will go to sprint.

T-MOBILE

Posted on: August 27th, 2008 by NICOLE CRAIG

Joined t-mobile in June of 2008. phones are never working, takes forever for calls to go through. Sometimes I can't receive calls or make them. This month 8/22 paid my bill early because this automated voice would come on and interrupt me while i make calls, so i paid my bill early so that i could use my phone. went to the mall and pd 118.00 because i have two phones. left the mall and i still could not use the phone. went back to the store and the sales rep basically said i should'nt have paid my bill earyly because my 700 min would'nt be active until 8/29.. i said well can i call my favorite five. they said yes. tried calling them and calls would not go through. called customer service and they said that i would have to add min even after i just paid 118.00. i spoke with some rude person and asked him for their cooperate number and he said that it was agaist their company policy for the to release that info to me. there is always a problem with the reception, and when i call in to complain all they say is you'll just have to wait were getting someone in that area to fix it. they gave me 50 extra min for one time the phone was messed up, but if the problem is in you area they will not give you any min because to them thats normal for you not to be able to use your phone that you pay for every month. i really want to change companies because t-mobile is a joke.

Bad news

Posted on: August 19th, 2008 by Christa Stigler

The good: 0The bad: Wrong billing, poor communication, bad customer service, poor signal, crappy phonesSummary: I changed service in March. Ntelos continued to bill me and when I called said they would fix the bill. I then got notice from an attorney's office who called them and they admitted their mistake however I still had to pay over 200 in attorney's fees or get sued. I will NEVER say good things about Ntelos. I had the service for over two years and wasn't satisfied but couldn't cancel due to contract cancellation fees. Waited my two years and changed service as fast as I could.
