LIARS AT T- MOBILE

Posted on: May 1st, 2007 by RUSSELL Lunski

I received as an upgrade their new Nokia 5300 phone and guess what after THREE(3)WEEKS the screen went blank on me as I was holding it in my hand.And the phone wouldn't even turn on anymore just plainly dead.Inside the screen I saw as something leaked.So, I called T-Mobile to inform about obvious manufacturer defect and they told me in this case I can only get exactly the same phone as a replacement.By the way the phone's battery is very bad as you need to recharge it everyday. Next, they told me to send defective back to them which I did exactly by their instructions. I was shocked when I saw an extra $120 charge on my bill. I called them and was told I'm beign charged because I physically damaged the phone and that is TOTAL LIE. I was told that their technician determined that the phone was droped by me which was totally not true. I tried to defend myself but the two representatives just kept telling me that they (T-Mobile) won't back down on their false accusation. Bottom line, they told me either to pay for the defective phone(meaning to pay for nothing)or they will suspend my service. T-Mobile would rather lose me as their loyal customer with 5 lines than to remove this bogus charge. They probably have too many customers and afford to lose few.

NO RESPECT!

Posted on: April 14th, 2007 by Anonymous

The good: USED TO HAVE EXCELLANT CUSTOMER SERVICE.The bad: POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, POOR COVERAGE, DROPPED CALLS, INCOMPLETE CALLS, LONG WAIT TIMES TO CONNECT.Summary: I have had T--Mobile for 5 years. I used to love them. Now, not so much. When I lived in Phoenix, Great. Move to Hawaii, less then great. But I could still live with it. Until lately. Now my life is PLAGUED with dropped calls, incomplete calls. No servivce. All circuits busy. Busy signals. It seems my phone has more excuses built right in then I could even imagin. Downhill. YEAH DOWN HILL. THEY SAID MY RAZOR DOES NOT GET GOOD SIGNAL. Try the Nokia. Well its better but it still is not good. Now I have to pay them $200 to Get out even when they are giving me BAD service.

Great Carrier!

The good: Awesome amount of minutes/texts for your moneyCool phonesThe bad: Not many new phone deals for existing customersSummary: I have been VERY satisfied with T-Mobile. They are always helpful with any questions I have, and I hardly have to wait to talk to them. THe website is really easy to use and helpful, too. The plans offer great value. I wish they would offer better phone upgrades for existing customers. Otherwise, they are great!

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE - I AM SWITCHING SERVICES

Posted on: March 2nd, 2007 by Michele M

My husband and I have been with T-Mobile for years. Although I've had trouble with dropped calls and reception in the past, I've NEVER called to complain. I called for the first time last night as, for the past 8 weeks, I've been getting phone calls that are being dialed to a completely different number - people are calling me constantly telling me that I am calling them. Turns out, a number with a completely different area code (818, I'm 773), completely different exchange and completely different last 4 numbers is ringing my number when dialed. Needless to say, there are a lot of mad people calling me asking me why am I calling them when I'm not. I called T-Mobile customer service to explain the situation. The rep (Brian) said his records show that I only received 3 calls dialed to this number. I explained to him that I have received a lot more than 3 calls like this. He said "I only see 3". I requested a credit for the lost minutes and inconvenience and he said he can credit me one dollar and the only remedy is to issue me a new number. This is a problem for me, as I've used my number for business for years. I explained this to him and he was only willing to credit me one dollar. I explained that my husband and I are long-time customers and asked if T-Mobile valued this or was willing to lose us. He said "have a great night" and HE HUNG UP ON ME. Now, if I was being rude or belligerent, I could somewhat understand. However, I was completely calm and polite - and HE HUNG UP ON ME. I will NOT renew with T-Mobile and will NEVER use their services again. It is sad to say that I run into this type of behavior more and more in the service industries - people are not managed properly, do not take pride in their work and basically take their anger out on customers who are paying their salary! And they wonder why these jobs are moving overseas.

Poor Customer Service, Billing Policies

Posted on: February 4th, 2007 by Margaret Tobin

The good: Rates, coverage in Chicago areaThe bad: Allow non-account owner (member on family plan) to alter account;Deceptive methods used with services; Do not value long time customersSummary: Two recent poor experiences:1) My teenage daughter, while visiting a family member, sent and received over 700 text messages in three days. When asked about these, she said she had signed up for free text messaging. When I called T-Mobile, they told me she had signed up for web access. My daughter showed me the menu option in her phone, and it indeed displayed "Unlimited Messaging", but T-Mobile told me it meant "web access." Yes, my daughter should have received permission to make any changes, but regardless, T-Mobile refused to adjust the bill. Customer Service acknowledged that the phone menu displayed this text. When I suggested I would complain to the State Attorney General, they hung up on me.2. An electronic payment was returned for a cell phone account held for over three years for an adult disabled son, due to our overlooking depositing a check in the bank. The paper bill showed the total amount, including the returned amount, due three weeks into the future, with no warning that the account would be suspended. However, they suspended phone service within 72 hours of the electronic payment being returned. Customer Service completely ignored our 100% on time payments made for the past three years, prior to this one incident.

Awful!

Posted on: February 2nd, 2007 by Adrienne Tongate

The good: Highest Amount of Minutes for Price (which I can't take advantage of because of no reception!)The bad: Dropped Calls, No Reception, Bad Customer ServiceSummary: Since I have moved to Chicago, I have no reception in my apartment. On the very rare days that I do have reception, my calls are constantly dropped, or my phone screen flashes "Call Not Allowed". I tried to terminate my plan and was told by a customer service agent that I couldn't because, according to their records, my area has excellent service. When I told her that I beg to differ she suggested I do what she does, and go outside to use my phone. When I explained to her that I have done this but I need to walk about 4 blocks (in Chicago winter weather) to receive a good signal, she basically said I was out of luck. Another agent said it wasn't the service but my phone, and they sent me a new one which hasn't helped the problem, but has prolonged my contract. Basically, every customer service agent has told me a different thing, and 98 percent of them are unhelpful and evasive. I have no land line, and having a conversation on the phone in my home is a frustrating hassle with T-Mobile!

The worst

Posted on: January 25th, 2007 by Barbara Andrews

The good: cheapThe bad: Lots of dropped calls, horrible customer service, will turn off your service for non-payment if you are less than 72 hours late on your bill which happened to me. Bill was due on the 21st, but my check didn't reach them on time, phone was shut off on the early a.m. of the 24th without even a warning! Customer service said, "You are an adult, we don't send warnings!". I just wish I didn't have their service, it's the worst ever. I will be looking for a new provider. Plus, 911 didn't work one timeSummary: Really consider your options before committing to a plan such as this.

Great, Awesome, Perfect!

Posted on: January 20th, 2007 by Kelly Riggen

The good: Customer Service, Calling Plans, My Faves, No Roaming, NationwideThe bad: Variety of phonesSummary: I have had the best experiences dealing with customer service, they are always helpful! The calling plans are more affordable and more extensive than other companies that I research before joining. I have a great phone, I just wished there were a few more choices. But the my faves compatibility with the phones are understandable when it comes to selection!

Poor customer service.

Posted on: January 19th, 2007 by Suzanne .

The good: The plan worked well with our needs.The bad: Calls being droped no signal.Summary: We are having a lot of problems with calls being droped. Have no signal on the phones. I have called customer service many times and all I receive is the run around saying to turn my phone off everyday so things reset and that they need to check the towers. I was also told that I needed to purchase a newer updated phone when mine isn't even a year old. All they ever did for us if they did was to give us 100 extra minutes when we don't even use all of the minutes that we have. They could offer credits on the bills to try to please the customers. I am glad that my contract is up in a month. I would never recommend them to anyone.
